dammit. I wish there was a little investigating Before reporting. Why did the same house catch on fire twice.
This is breaking news so we all have questions. The arson investigators aren’t even on the scene yet-let alone a reporter. We’d all like answers but the only answer I have is the to the question of why there are sirens–there’s a house fire. But I don’t know why the same house caught on fire twice.
Why are the flames orange… just playin
OK I understand. But why no update on Tommy Harwood his acts against children and other people were atrocious I think the community deserves an update on this monster.
I don’t know of any further action in his case.
guess!
