snow_wizard Posted January 6, 2023 Report Share Posted January 6, 2023 Now we have a stupid God forsaken south breeze blowing here. I HATE this pattern.

snow_wizard Posted January 6, 2023 Report Share Posted January 6, 2023 Perhaps the biggest problem with this pattern is the air is constantly being stirred up by winds alternating between easterly and southerly.

I’ll start. Innocent until proven guilty. I can almost guarantee we have only seen a fraction of what they have. Unfortunately, I have first hand knowledge of this as my nephew was a victim of a situation like this back in 2016. He was one of 5 young adults shot in the back of the head in their house, then the house was torched. It took an incredibly long time for his killer to go to trail, and even us as the family were kept in the dark about a LOT of things. We were only told there would be some difficult and uncomfortable things that would be coming to light about my nephew. We pretty much knew it all already, but it was difficult having it going public. Side note, again having "been there done that" it was also very frustrating to hear about all of the rumors and theories being circulated, and the criticism towards police about not being more forthcoming with information and leads. They have to be very careful about all of that lest they tip off the suspect or taint a potential jury pool. Sounds like in this case the main concern was tipping off the suspect, as they had him under surveillance for a long time. In my nephew's case, the killer was not the sharpest knife in the drawer, stayed at the scene trying to play the "witness" His alibi fell apart very quickly and they had a confession soon after. F*cker still plead not guilty and dragged things out for several years, getting convicted in 2019 and his last appeal finally being thrown out late last year. 1 Quote Britton Rd Bellingham Weather Station: https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KWABELLI103?cm_ven=localwx_pwsdash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
