Well I thought we did too! Now it seems as though I'm always on guard. I doubt that the town will be
any safer. They took him away charged him, then let him go the same evening! I guess sooner or later
there will be a court case, but who knows when that will be.
I was just reading in the local paper today that a nutcase about 20 minutes from here murdered his
mother on February 5 and her body was found about 10 minutes from us on February 7. I don't know
what this place is coming to!
As for the heroics....I think I'd do just what you suggested and call the cops. My life is worth
more than a damn XBox!
