The officer across the street knew about the death threats... Is it his fault that greater care was not made for him to go to JM and pursue the very source of the threats OR to insist that some detectives from the unit pursue the matter? After all, he was an officer of the law. In our area, LE cannot do much of anything due to a death threat and UNTIL an action is taken against your life, by then it might be too late.
Might we guess that maybe JM's ministry gets tons of death threats? Did we hear that CC told those at JM ministries that he didn't think the threats were problematic? What did those at JM hear from Chris about these threats. What did he offer them in terms of real concern about the threats OR did he say, "Oh it is probably just some crackpot." JM evidently offered to buy security equipment for the family, CC refused that offer. Go figure! (evidently he told them, "She knows how to use a gun") The officer across the street offered certain help in getting security equipment together, CC refused (I believe the officer offered to call a particular company, ISP? to get a piece of equipment.)
Check out Kathy La Plante's statement. I think that in reading it is important to divide what Sheri said that Chris said, as Chris might have lied to her at any point in time. Well, he did like at many points in time, didn't he...
