How did the shooter know that he was going to be at his girlfriend's place? Was his car out front?
ReplyDeleteAnyone else notice that it was the State Police that sulved this and as usual, not the SPD.
ReplyDeleteSo, who killed his brother? Is DSP being called in? They are the ones doing the busting these days!
ReplyDelete9:12 PM - That's because the MSP has a state-wide murder investigation unit and no local police department on the Shore does, you ignorant wad.
ReplyDeleteIf you had a bare inkling of how murder investigations are done in rural Maryland, and who's tasked with doing them, you'd keep your mouth shut and be thankful.
830 my question is about the girlfriend she left might urself before he was killed and came back minutes after. LEO should definitely check her phone
