Bet its exboyfriend/husband. We need to take domestic violence seriously.
And why are shooters tox screens never made public???
So sorry for them, what trauma to be shot and see a loved one killed in front of you at 15.
Sending luvs to friends and family! ♡
What’s a tax screen?
Maybe they don’t release it because it does not portray the image they want. Perhaps these people aren’t on the drugs that the government labels as so evil, but rather the pharmaceutical that they greedily approve.
jeez…much of an agenda there? You don’t know jackshit about this event.
Yep. Just more speculation and judgement.
I do realize that reading comprehension is difficult for some, but if you go back and read what I was replying to you would see that I never said I know much about this event. He was asking about tox screens being released from shooters in general, not this specific incident.
How do you get a tox screen from someone who left the scene?
Racist remark
Isn`t it most likely this is a “hate crime” perpetrated by violent white racists? There seems to be a lot in the mainstream media about racist, facists, even Nazis running around and how dangerous they are. If the victims were Native Americans, and it seems most likely they were, given the location, aren`t the most likely culprit(s) some variety of Nazi, facist, KKK or other dangerous racist? Who else would have done this? From the information in the article, the house was specifically target, was known to be occupied by Native Americans, therefor, the only reasonable explanation is what I`ve elucidated above. Let`s hope they`re soon caught.
Sarcasm?
Oh John, are you statistically challenged.
You sound like you have serious issues. You should see someone. Really.
You might be onto something.
I knew the woman and her niece. They were not druggies nor involved in cannabis. From what I gather from the family, the shooter is known and shot through the house in a random fashion. They occupants were Native and were known activists fighting for Native Rights.
I was the 15 year old girl who was shot. We were doing nothing wrong and the bullet was intended for someone else not me or my aunt who was killed. R.I.P. Nicole Smith
What you went through was heinous. I am so sorry for you and your family.
