Deceased/Not Found IL - Yingying Zhang, 26, Urbana, 9 June 2017 #3 *Arrest*

[Niner]

OK Dawn is great, from the Chicago Tribune. I predict there will be many reporters live tweeting so I can post the tweets as text to save for space and loading but will need help with all of stuff coming out at once.

Do you want me to help? If so, give me a reporter (s) to tweet!

edited to add: isn't Illinois Eastern Time? or Central Time? Like it is NOT 10am in Illinois right now?

Matou - I'd help with posting other tweeters, but it seems Dawn Rhodes is the only one tweeting about this - at least that's all I can find....

:dunno:

Illinois is in the Central Time Zone so the court hearing is not for another 35 minutes or so. I'll monitor Twitter.

Reminder not to sleuth BC's wife at this time.

If LE names her a POI or a suspect, we will open up sleuthing her at that time.

Thank you!

This post falls at random.

No it is not. And no, Central time.

Okay then. Have another hearing for 8:30am Pacific time - so I'll have to go over there at 10:30am (your time!)
Thanks in advance for the tweets!

What is super bizarre is that the photo with the most shares/negative comments is a "Fox Mulder" meme (X-Files) that's been wrongly ID'd as BC and has taken off like wildfire. Kinda scary and gave me pause regarding people's anger (even when it's deserved) and people's rush to pass judgement. :thinking:

Wow, his FB is public and as I am typing here, people are posting disgusting and crazy comments on there.

 

[Tinypeeps]

Yes. And I think safe to say all of us here are also disgusted and outraged on the Zhang's behalf at that, and also heartsick for their monumental loss.

Yes! People scare me. Totally reminds of the 1955 "Night of the Hunter" (Robert Mitchum) with a classic American lynch mob scene.

While people from across the nation are exhibiting their outrage and anger by flaming his profile, I hope it's also evident that the nation as a whole is standing behind Yingying and her family. In an odd way, its heartwarming and I hope Yingying's loved ones and her country know we support justice for this horrific crime.
