Beltway Sniper Shootings-FR Commentary-Wed., Oct. 23,2002
Fox News, CNN, Press Conferences | October 23, 2002 | Fox News, CNN, Press Conferences

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.

"The media is insane."

Hmmmmmmmm, understatement. But, they are getting ratings and pushing dinner table subjects from the Rats off the table.

I'm still standin by my AQ sympathisors belief. Not a cell, mind you. Some people that just think alike.

The Give away was the request for 10 grand. Chump change.

"I spent my misspent youth earning money ironing my dad's white cotton dress shirts because he didn't like the way the dry cleaner did it."

I get that reaction all the time when people hear I iron. They gasp. It's a lost art, I guess.

I hope it ends soon. I wonder how long it will take The Stump to get to MD?

Alabama is now part of this search.

They won't say what city yet until the Feds arrive. But FOX knows where and is sending a reporter to the site.

She (my mom) finds it quite interesting. It's actually about a mile and a half from her house -- close enough that she can see the news helicopters circling around from her back porch. She gets a kick about the news reports saying Ft. Lewis is 30 miles away (it's only about 15).

Like everyone else, she just wants this guy(s) nabbed (and hung).

What could MSNBC mean - we will be stunned. The media have been speculating for weeks it's military trained sniper white guy(s).
