Hey, is this an unverified report, and am I slandering a man without waiting on evidence and confirmation?
I learned that from the media.
This is the claim. We'll see if it's true.
Jared Loughner has been making death threats by phone to many people in Pima County including staff of Pima Community College, radio personalities and local bloggers. When Pima County Sheriff’s Office was informed, his deputies assured the victims that he was being well managed by the mental health system. It was also suggested that further pressing of charges would be unnecessary and probably cause more problems than it solved as Jared Loughner has a family member that works for Pima County... Every victim of his threats previously must also be wondering if this tragedy could have been prevented if they had been more aggressive in pursuing charges against Mr. Loughner. Perhaps with a felony conviction he would never have been able to lawfully by the Glock 9mm Model 19 that he used to strike down the lives of six people and decimate 14 more..,,
The Pima County Sheriff’s Department was aware of his violent nature and they failed to act appropriately. This tragedy leads right back to Sherriff Dupnik and all the spin in the world is not going to change that fact.
If the basic factual predicate there is true, the motivation and actions alleged make sense -- if you've dropped the ball, badly, and that's led to six murders and multiple grave injuries, damnit, you'd better start soliciting political allies and dreaming up faraway scapegoats.
Corrected: I got confused from the multiple retractions of how many had died and wrote "two." Six were killed, more gravely wounded, and more than that wounded.
That is extremely creepy.
Say, just today there was a thread closed by the mods for a fake facebook page — and one of the posters to that thread stated that there were NO legitimate facebook pages, that Jared used MySpace -— but I have no idea if this is true.
Thanks for the info. Bizarre stuff.
Yeah, I’ve heard that as well about him only having a MySpace page- if the FB page at my link (a different one than the one with Obama as the main picture) is indeed a fake, its really weird that it would list “child protective services” if his dad really works there. Hhmmmmmm.
As long as Dupnik carries the media line, that it's Sarah's fault, and it's the tea parties fault, the media will not blame Dupnik.
If it’s true about the father, it’s still not being reported:
“The employment history of his father Randy Loughner remains unknown.”
Probably will know a lot more tomorrow.
See the article in post 31.
Harvard did some studies that said long term pot use damages the brain in the same area that is damaged in Schizophrenics.
The article in 31 would seem to confirm that pot use may not only cause schizo but makes it worse.
FR is the only place I've read this...not saying it isn't true but where did the info come from?
BUT.... today's news articles claim that he hasn't held a job ever since Jared was born, that he was a "stay at home dad" who rebuilt classic cars as a sideline.
