Thanks for posting this.

“Was she found in the car or outside of the car and was she shot at the bar?

Much confusion in such a short article.

Modern journalists have completely done away with the Who, What, When, Where, Why and How of a report.”

You’re right, Pollard. That story line is as clear as mud.

Dayton Shooting: Suspect ID’d, reportedly had prior hit-list

Chris Baker, who just resigned this summer after 14 years as Bellbrook High School principal, was asked about Betts’ time as a Bellbrook student.

Asked about reports that, while a Bellbrook student, Betts was suspended for causing a lockdown by writing a “hit-list” on a bathroom wall, Baker said, “I would not dispute that information, but I don’t want to get involved any more than just making that comment.”

A woman who went to high school with Betts recalled the hit-list.

“I know he made the list,” she said. “I’m not sure who the names were on there...He had a plan to shoot up the school.”

When she first heard about the shooting, she said Betts’ name came to her mind.

“I guessed it might’ve been him just from that list,” she said.

She added that Betts was bullied at the high school and that he seemed “pretty normal” after he “got some help from making list.”

I think she was going to turn him in for what he was about to do.

Who would report anything to the FBI? Who wants to be on the FBI radar screen?

...“see something, say something” isn’t working.

I think it should be "see something, do something." Say something leaves it up to the other person to do something.

Oh my, their poor mother.

What was the reason for the shooting? Was he mad at the sister or her boyfriend?

Poof that zombies exist. They got up off the bar floor and walked to their car. Hmm, don’t know how vampires and the garlic festival fits in.

That's why they have "Watch Lists" [though we don't hear so much about them anymore].

Plausible Deniability.

My 2 cents worth. Possible shooters sister’s boyfriend was enlightening her about democrats and she was turning to the right? Why else would he shoot his sister and her boyfriend.
