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 university’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.

"23 Year old gunman no photo..."

If they do not identify him, they've identified him.

Elsewhere it was reported: "Details of what led to the shooting were not released, but police said it stemmed from an altercation between the two."

Interesting. Whitewater straddles two counties where Trump won handily in 2016 and 2020. Jefferson and Walworth. So, not a terribly woke area.
Did someone higher up put pressure on the local police to keep things mum?

According to the article, she was shot at an apartment. Another male was present with her. Both males had an altercation with each other at that time.
Can we say the eternal deadly triangle? Except why wasn’t the male shot. Maybe she was cheating on the perp...

Article says her relationship with perp was unclear. I would say relationship was deadly.
I am not surprised that there are grief counselors, and tributes. Too bad those measures never seem to stop the killing.

I travel through that area frequently. Over the past few years there has been a great influx of migrants. I think the goal of government is to alter the demographics of the electorate in conservative areas.

Very interesting. That supports the theory that the killer was one of the assorted invaders. Venezuela perhaps?
We’re going to know eventually. They can keep this secret for only so long.

I’m not suggesting that I know anything about the killer, just about the area. There was a release from law enforcement that suggested he is (was) a student.

As I told another poster on a separate thread, I was shocked to see a botanica on the Main Street of a neighboring town the last time I drove through the area.

“Maybe she was cheating on the perp...”

Ya think maybe?

Kind of thing happened at Ole Miss three or so years ago. Of campus.

The Asian kids go to ole Miss in droves. From China.

They look at the American kids in amazement. The partying and screwing around.

These Chinese kids have to bust their asses from age one or so They have no siblings. None of them. They’re simplybnot allowed to go back without the best grades let alone a degree

They study. Thats it.

Some American kids study too. But it’s a minority

Of course, but all we have now is guessing and theories. Has anyone (students, friends etc) said anything? There’s just a total blackout of information about the perp. Very odd, imo.
This happened three days ago.

Eventually we will see the truth in the Daily Mail.

An element to that too is that most male blacks are raised by an emotional black woman with extremely little impulse control (as witnessed by weave snatching events when they don’t get their way). If the male blacks survive past childhood without getting beaten to death by mama or her latest boyfriend, then it’s a pathway to felonhood.

With the advent of cheap, widely available Glock “switches” from China making them into currently illegal machine pistols and their massive popularity among ‘certain sections of the population’, it is no longer a safe assumption that someone being shot multiple times is an emotionally charged incident.

Boyfriend? Ex-boyfriend? Roommate? ANTIFA? Gang member? Robber?

Who knows?

But unless the person was wearing a red MAGA hat, this story will disappear from the front pages within 24 hours.

A wild guess. She was pregnant and refused to have an abortion.

The biggest and worst criminals in the U.S. are all Democratic politicians.
