What's weird about this is how the police found the "body" (they won't release any info about the murder vic). One would assume that someone at the apartment complex heard a commotion, fight, gunshot, and called the police. But that wasn't the case--the police went to the apartment on their own suspicions and found the body. Which begs the question: how did they know Darren Mack was involved?

They said they went through Judge Weller's docket and found the Mack divorce case, but so what? I'm sure there were a lot of divorce cases on the docket--he is a family court judge.

Personally, I think Darren told someone that he was going to "get even" after the divorce trial, did the do, and that person called the cops to finger him.

The local news is over now--I'll listen to the radio and see if I can catch any tidbits. Mrs. randog and I thought about going downtown, but decided that watching cops/sheriffs standing around looking important wasn't much fun.

What's your take on whether the fellow is already dead by his own hand . . . or whether he intends on "suicide by cop"?

Was he kind of an odd bird to begin with?

The police made the connection because "Mack's" case was filed under "S" for "screwed".

Wife and I were downdown about 4:45 and saw the bomb squad truck on Arlington and turning toward the court house. I guess somebody really didn't like Judge Weller.
