A man has been arrested in the fatal shooting of 21-year-old University of Wisconsin-Whitewater gymnast Kara Welsh in an apartment off campus, authorities said.

Welsh, who won an individual national title on the vault for the gymnastics team last year, was allegedly shot multiple times by a 23-year-old man at an apartment about a block from the universityโ€™s main campus Friday, police said.

Police have not released the name of the suspect, but they said they believe she knew him.

The nature of their relationship was not clear.

Police said officers arrived just before midnight Friday and found Welsh dead with multiple gunshot wounds.

The news is worthless at all levels. They disguise, omit, hide, and bury everything.

They may be going through forensics at the scene, and elsewhere as on the campus itself, if the perpetrator was on campus, or connected with the university.

They don’t want to risk tampering.

If the university connection, the university and law enforcement, may be keeping this low key due to the shock.

....or foreign student? Which would account for a hush on this.

Well, while its not an exact science, and there are exceptions, this could be another variant of “Coulters Law”.

The reason I don't think it is forensics or tampering that have them holding back the name of the man they have in custody is this:

"Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Whitewater Police Department at 262-473-0555 option 4. Anonymous tips may also be shared using P3Tips.com."

How can someone give Whitewater Police information if they without information about the name of the man they arrested ?

The police need time to check (and delete if necessary) the murderer’s social media activity.

Well, they sure took their time about it, but they had to produce him in court so now we know his name.

Jerry Seinfeld, in a kinda serious episode, taught how to deal with it when a girl wants to break up with you.

Say “OK, I wish you the best”, and then leave. Or let her leave, if she’s at your place.

That way life can go on.

:You buy that? Whatever that graph is saying? 5.2 what? What is 5.2?”

Per 1,000 people

“Btw did you see this part?

‘40% of couples who cohabitate before marriage get divorced.’”

Yes; there is most likely a type of adverse selection going on with cohabiting partners. People who first cohabitate before getting married have revealed themselves to be less committed to begin with to the institution of marriage or to their partner.

Based on the apparently unedited photo at the hearing I assume the media tried to make him look whiter in early photos.

The real deal:
