With the speed of news via internet social media, I'm pretty sure tonight isn't easy already.Praying for the family tonight. Tomorrow is going to be so hard for them.
SoftTail?
Not surprised. Feel for the family.
Not official yet IMO but sounds like it will be tomorrow. I'm not shocked, just sad and disappointed.
They are already leaving a huge part of this story out and I (for one) will be disappointed if the MSM fails to cover the fact that this was more than only a simple suicide. This was a suicide by a high ranking officer who tried to fake his suicide to make it look like he was killed in the line of duty. If you are going to tell the story. Tell it like it really is / was. That's all I ask. I don't like pretentiousness.

It was a hit and run post with no follow up. Take it for what it was........

Yes I know. If my memory is correct they were saying anyone that assumed suicide had no clue what they were talking about?

I'm not shocked. I'm not sad. I'm not disappointed. I am angry. All that money spent, wasted, over a selfish lie. What he did was selfish to his family, his peers and his community. The cost of the investigation should come from his estate. Before any one rips me a new one, that pension is something he, not she, earned and his expenses should come out of that money before she is paid. His lie caused the expenses.
After the official announcement I will have more to say.

LOL is all I have to say.. You don't have all of the facts. Nobody in the public has all of the facts. Much that has been In the media is UNTRUE.
I will say this, there is discord between agencies. The FBI and the DHS ,,,, however there is a lot of evidence. It is an active and ongoing investigation,,,, So I appreciate them preserving the facts until there is a prosecution. Which won't come anytime soon.
It wasn't suicide.
I agree with all of this except that I'm not angry about it or indignant in any way. Though I do hope that extreme care is taken to handle the situation in a way that sends a clear message to any other officers who might be otherwise inclined to try something along the same line someday.
Since when did stations begin announcing forthcoming news intended for tomorrow?
The report I heard at five o'clock didn't include info about a press conference only that an announcement about the case will be made tomorrow.
Why not just wait and give us the news when they have it ready to give?
These reports seem like false alarms and are irritating (or for ratings) imo.
I have a personal reason for being angry and I will share it. Overcoming depression is work. Counseling, therapy, medications etc. is work. Resigning to the fact that in some cases antidepressant medication is a lifetime necessity to function normally is work.
