Let's keep a live commentary thread going again today. The FBI Tip Line #1-888-324-9800.
All seems quiet since yesterday's news the shooter may target children specifically. It was released on various news outlets the shooter's 3-page letter to police was in broken English and threatened extreme violence. Police announced an electronic transfer of $10m as requested by the shooter was not possible but other options for transfer remain open. No one seriously believes police will actually give the shooter $$, but police are trying to keep a dialogue open with the shooter in an effort to capture this monster.

WOW - I just tuned into Fox and logged onto FR - what in the world am I missing? I'll have to read through this thread quickly!!
To: HairOfTheDog
Saw it.thanks!
To: MasonGal
news just broke...
To: ~Kim4VRWC's~
They have a search for "evidence" in Tacoma.... not hoping to find the sniper but "background and history" related to the case. Whatever the heck that means.
To: Dog
Tacoma, Washington. Major "dig" going on relating to the background and infromation regarding the serial sniper.
To: Dog
Is it possible this sniper might be an excon that Moose busted years ago in Portland????? Now that we're seeing activity in Seattle, I wonder if this might be the case???
It certainly would explain why Moose has been the point of contact.
To: HairOfTheDog
Thanks... I wonder who owns the house, and who lives there.. all that stuff. Hope they release info soon.
Any interviews with neighbors yet?
To: HairOfTheDog
Area roped off, parking lot, looks like a house, several cars, cops around. Lots of white cars.
To: Letitring
HMmm .. could be a connection to Chief Moose who used to be in Portland. Could be that this is personal.
To: HairOfTheDog
Keep us updated ....

Tacoma not far from Portland?
To: Letitring
Or a 'copy cat'. Or transcontinental diversion to shake up everyone for something even more terrible. Who knows. Keep cool. Check those scanners, folks. Keep posting!
To: DeBug=int13
I don't know what %age of trafficked parking lots or gas stations, bus stops, etc., are surrounded by wooded areas out there. Maybe there are just too many areas to be patroled.
The same sniper tactics would be harder to pull off here in the Los Angeles area. We have no real thick woodsy areas near commercial areas. You'd have to be pretty skinny to hide behind a palm tree and get off your shot.
To: commish
This guy followed Moose to DC?
To: commish
Well that is what a FReeper kept saying, in here, wanted to post some pictures he felt were pertinent. I think he got flamed, or something. Groan.
To: commish
GMTA! I just said the same thing.
To: Letitring
Did they ever say the location of where the credit card that he wanted the cash to go to, had been stolen from? Was it east coast or west coast?
To: commish; rintense
Rintense mentioned the same thing..
Could that explain why he's spokesperson?
To: Dog
there simply
can't be a connection in WA !
we all know this guy in DC is a local white looney ! !
</chuckle>
To: John Jamieson
A possibility. Could be an Ex-Con that Moose helped jail. OR it could be terrorist related and just a coincidence that it is near Moose's old jurisdiction.
