No even vague description of the perp. Odd. Waiting for notification of next of kin, I suppose...
Roderick is one clue as to the perps demographic.
Do we REALLY need to have the press report to us about the perp OR do we ALREADY KNOW who the perp was!!!
Notification of family or next of kin is a nice thing to do, for people that deserve it. I’m not persuaded a perpetrator of violent crime and murder deserves any particular courtesy whatsoever.
