Nope I had no info about that before I read that link. It explains why no one was talking about anything though. There was a MAJOR screw up and now someone is going to be in very very big trouble. This is just ridiculous. I have had to call 911 only two times and they were there instantly almost so I have no idea what happened here but something major did. I will update as soon as I hear anything else. No school today or tomorrow. Most buisnesses are shut down and there are still news people EVERYWHERE.

Thanks for the update from a local perspective.

Best, I'm sure, as I know this has affected all in your small community.

still news people EVERYWHERE.

a major pain I know, hopefully some will ask the right questions as to there being a MAJOR screw up.

I do not wish to be hard-hearted at a time like this... but the police are not any more capable than anyone else, and they are not here to save anyone, they are just the first responders, like the EMTs in the ambulances.

Their training is just that, training. You can not make someone, something that they aren’t, no matter what you tell them.

This guy had serious flaws, that should come out as obvious as time goes on. Heck, we all have serious flaws. Maybe they will discover a brain tumor or something like that.

Do not bet that anyone is in any trouble for any major screw up. The only likely trouble is some embarrassing news conferences and process changes at the police department.

There was evidence of violence surrounding homeless in the woods that are on two sides of my house. The police, community groups, zoning people, and the PTA of the elementary school listened to me for two years while I complained. Finally this violent guy who had been camping out in those woods for two years killed some other homeless woman in a very brutal manner. You think anyone was in trouble. Absolutely not. I was still written off as a kook. Yeah a person or two said that I was right all along, but by that time my image was made.

The police are only first responders, nothing more. Am I missing anything?
