In Moscow Idaho? Doesn't seem too likely.
as a former resident of Moscow- and long time resident of Spokane- My thoughts and prayers are with all in moscow-
I am confused by this turn of the conversation taking place here- I have traveled and worked in and with many areas of the US since I left this area- I have worked with and in many cultures- this jump off topic is part of the problem not any help or solution to it-
and as for the comment that the Carl Drega type of situation is not likely in Moscow- I bet at 9:00 Saturday morning any Moscow area resident would have said that the insident at hand was not going to happen in their town either-
Moscow is and always has been a University town-
I fail to see where or how that automatically makes it more or less likely that this was an act of an “outside” person or person from another culture-
Courthouses- and in my view especially in small towns-
are “Americana “ all they way - and an assult on one is more likely to be a area resident- and some one who feeels very wronged by what they felt were “there own people”
If you think that because Moscow is small, farming and country-that these events are unlikley - “they just don’t happen here” you need to open your eyes-
this happens anywhere and everywhere — sad and unfortunate as that is
