He was just distancing himself the mandated 6 ft. Someone forgot to tell him 6’ down doesn’t count.

Little more to the story on this one... he is a "developer and investor" out of New York. Looking through his photos, he dresses the part of a cartel participant. Her profile says she lives in one of the biggest known drug areas in Mexico. I bet more will come out on this one. Not too mention they were killed in Jaurez. Just my two cents...

Juarez? Yeah why don't you just go into a war zone already.

Baldwinsville is easily five hours from NYC.

NYC is not mentioned in the report 947, what is your intention?

It says he is from New York. Baldwinsville is in New York. There is more to New York than just NYC.

Northwest Woodsman: Why do I suspect there is a little more to this story than what was posted? I think 8:20 is on to something. Certainly not dressed like the average citizen of Juarez so that, alone, made them stand out. I resided in El Paso which borders on Juarez and my retired cop son currently resides there. Juarez is the kind of place that you should avoid if you are concerned with living to a ripe old age. Been that way since the 70s. Should have been wearing a sombrero and serape.

"Howe noted that Landers had been in Mexico for about three weeks, while quarantining with Baca"

How were they quarantining when they were riding around in a Jeep? This all sounds fishy.

She was hot though, I would have quarantined with her.

She looked Hot, but he looked like a clown with his skinny jeans on. Maybe that is why they shot him?

Oh really? Then why are they all over Worcester and Wicomico Counties?

Oh, wait. Fat Larry the RINO refuses to put a ban on out of state citizens from coming into our State.

Northwest Woodsman: after a second look at the photos, I suspect Baca is the target here and Landers was in over his head. I find it hard to believe she is just a “gym teacher”. Possibly connected to cartel as a current or former girlfriend. The watch she is wearing could be a very expensive item and she is very well dressed. The watch could be a replica of an expensive one, but it does cause questions. Additionally, his tattoo says something about his personality. Too bad we will never get the truth behind this assasination.

Juarez City? Were they looking to score? This is one of the most dangerous cities on the continent due to drug cartels, kidnappings, beheadings, constant street violence. No American has any business being in Juarez. Smells to me.
