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.

"At this time, I cannot comment about anything, anyone, or comment on why I can't comment! I cannot confirm or deny that I am even confirming or denying anything."
LOL!
To: rintense
...why do they bother to have a press conference.
To: All
press conference is reporting this as a concensual search...of course they did mention that it's a former resident they're after....so no wonder the current resident doesn't mind.

"We will be out here at least a few more hours."
To: rintense
They shouldn't release ANYTHING until they have everyone under surveillance or are willing to put up posters with wanted pics on them.

No, CNN reported it..
Official is saying they started the search this "afternoon"...but neighbor interviewed said he saw them "this morning". sw

"At this time, I cannot comment about anything, anyone, or comment on why I can't comment! I cannot confirm or deny that I am even confirming or denying anything." "In fact, I cannot even confirm that I am actually here right now, nor can I confirm that I am a butterfly dreaming I am a LEO, or a LEO dreaming I am a butterfly, nor can I confirm or deny the definition of the word 'confirm'".

"ya'll got to get cable hookup so you don't tie up your phone lines."
We have a separate phone line for the computer and fax.

To: Peach
Shep says Fox News has confirmed that there is a link between this search and the serial sniper.
To: Slip18

Sorry, can't comment on that.
To: Peach
Yes. Why a press conference to start with?
To: looney tune
