It's not over. More will die to settle whatever debt it is that seems to keep mounting.
ReplyDelete7:06 what exactly does that mean??
DeleteThey were good boys
ReplyDeleteWell 7:41 it's not like it's rocket science or anything. First we have the relative killed at the party at the flop house motel. Then someone shot in the house on Pierce St. Then this one killed and shortly after his brother arrested for the murder on Pierce.
ReplyDeleteObviously they weren't good boys. Good boys don't rob and murder people.
ReplyDeleteHope they get locked away forever.
ReplyDeleteSouth Kaywood? That was an upscale neighborhood 30 yrs ago...what the hell happened?
ReplyDeleteUpscale? Lol. Ok.
Delete1:54. You know what happened. This article is evidence.
ReplyDeleteSo let me get this straight the press release reads MSP Homicide called in to assist SPD. Hmmmmmmmmmmm funny I don't see any reference in the press release about SPD or the WCSO. Yup MSP glory hounds. Makes me sick. If you don't wear a Stetson you are not a cop in their eyes. It comes from the top down. Remember that brown clown when a cop comes to your aid. When you are bleeding on street funny you really don't care what badge they wear or how big an agency they work for. You are no better then anyone else who puts a badge on never forget it.
ReplyDeleteBitter cop rant?
DeleteWho cares, whoever did it got a bunch of worthless peices of crap off the street. Perry was involved in a robbery as well per the daily times. They have no conscience. It's scary. I hope other young people learn from these things,and parents learn to raise your kids right!
