Visalia, Calif. • A Mormon church official was shot dead between services on Sunday, and less than an hour later, the man suspected of the crime also died after a shootout with police.
Clay Sannar, 42, a lay bishop with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Visalia, southeast of Fresno, died after being shot in his office, said Visalia police chief Colleen Mestas.
Soon after the first shooting, a caller identified himself to police as the shooter. Police responded, and there was a confrontation with several shots exchanged, said Mestas.
The suspect was hit multiple times. He was taken to nearby Kaweah Delta Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead. He has not been identified yet. No officers were injured, Mestas said.
Tulare County sheriff’s deputies are taking over the investigation of the shootout involving the police officers. The sheriff’s department did not immediately return calls for comment.
Visalia police continue to investigate Sannar’s shooting, but have not identified a motive.

“the FACTS don’t match the rhetoric.”
Strong words from a man who posts under a woman’s name... (chuckle!)
What does that have to do with what happened on this thread when your peers accused Freepers of murder and giggled about.
BTW We are glad your back, your "backing up" of your beliefs is what we count on, it is what we need...
Same magic underwear and the same loud noise before the same shipment of fail hits the loading dock.
I wonder if the lowest level of mormonic heaven is like this....?
“But no cassorole dishes...”
The widow and the children are being showered with blessings in every form including food.
Why? Does it disturb you to have to admit that your peers not only crossed over the line, they flew off the ledge?
The posts speak for themselves, I don't have to comment on them. Yet, it appears you are taking the same approach as those before you.
Stick your fingers in your ears, cover your eyes and pretend none of this ever happened. Or are you like your peers, overtly and covertly supporting the behavior by not condemning it?
Either way, thanks for proving much of my point with your comment.

How do you know they are “blessings” ???
Thats just your spin on it...
Those so called blessings may be causing the poor woman agony and she woulpd just as much rather you left her along and took your so called “blessings” somewhere else...
You think highly of yourself dont you ???
remind me to bar my door against you and your ilk in a time of personal tragedy...
Wow. Just wow. That was good.
Sorry I didn't respond to this one earlier but I must have missed it in the flurry of posts. I seldom fail to respond to hypocricy this blantant.
You posted: "There was no abuse." (post 163)
Aren't you doing exactly the same thing? You are claiming "no abuse" as if it were a fact. Isn't it more accurate to claim that it is not known if abuse was present or not? I fail to see where your dogmatism is any more valid than theirs. Maybe you can enlighten me?
ping to above
well said, SZ
Why is that not surprising........
Yeah. LOL. I just feel the love.
Enjoy you time with your brothers and sisters in Christ and God bless.

So, a couple of people said something “stupid” on an anonymous forum. Call the press! I am only responsible for my behavior here, you for yours, everyone else for theirs. If saying something dumb on an open forum is a sin, I say let he among you who is without sin cast the first stone. As for me, I will not be throwing any at all.
God bless and keep you.

Nice try DU...
The thread is replete with the accusation and its aftermath.
One of you own took a fall over it...
Just because you can create your own fiction of the world around you does not make it a replacement reality for the rest of us in the here and now.
