That’s almost always the case but people go in and out all the time so you can always catch an open door.

Domestic and not students could mean housekeeping.

Yellow pants and blue hoodie? Sounds like a Sunoco special.

“Why” - that’s when reporters say “unknown motive” or “domestic incident” etc. In this case “motive to be determined”.

“The person of interest has been identified as James Eric Davis, Jr. Central Michigan University says those planning to come to campus to pick up students for spring break should stay off campus until further notice.”

First thing I thought of was that it is likely a casino-related thing.

Much of the country might think “CMU” means Carnegie-Mellon University,” but apparently this is about another “CMU.”

I went to the University of Northern Colorado, but I can’t say UNC, because everyone thinks it’s North Carolina.

I remember. We chatted during one, maybe both. Wasn’t your wife nearby or on campus?

She was near campus for both. I was on campus. In the first one, I surprised a cop and he almost shot my dumb azz.

Which is useless verbiage, when they are reporting on a shooting, knifing or whatever. No one really knows why the killer’s killed unless they bought a billboard telling why they killed someone.

So you think unless a guy TELLS you the motive for killing his wife caught in bed with another man, you don’t know?

I think the motive of someone yelling “Allahu Akbar” while mowing down pedestrians is self evident.

In this case, if the victims turn out to be relatives then it’s a domestic dispute even if the perp doesn’t say so.
