Ang,
I sure hope they have the killer........if not they may as well give it up because they will of wasted way to much time.
Pretty soon LE will give everyone a reason to kill someone because they won't waste the time / money or any resources to find 'any' killer. Sure makes my blood boil!!! :furious: :furious: :furious:

The headlines make it SOUND good...but read the fine print!
Police make several arrests possibly connected to Zimmermann case
Madison police have made numerous arrests of possible suspects in the continuing homicide investigation of 21-year old University of Wisconsin junior Brittany Zimmermann, police announced today.
~snip~
MPD public information officer Joel DeSpain said police do not have a suspect in the case but are following many leads.
“It’s possible some of those we’ve been talking with could at some point become suspects (in the Zimmermann case), but we don’t know that yet,” DeSpain said. “It’s also possible the suspect or suspects are still on the street. At this point we do not have a suspect or suspects in the case.”

OK...so here they are talking out of both sides of their mouths!! Which is it, DeSpain? Do you or do you not have a suspect or suspects?!

What I am guessing is that they rounded up all the homeless people with warrants out and are going to see if any of the DNA matches. What a load of uhm...well...genetic material which probably is not at all related!

I would love nothing better than for them to get a hit, but if they don't...I can't wait to see how they spin it then!
So what are they doing in the meantime...while they are waiting on the DNA evidence to come back?

Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who
Probably hoping the media attention dies off and her case is forgotten just like Kelly Nolans.

I just heard on the radio that the police did find evidence of a forced break in at her home. So maybe it's not the same guy that was just walking into random homes in the area?

Here's the article, Shamrock:

Can anyone remember if there was a forced entry in the Joel Marino murder? Either there wasn't, or that information hasn't been released, because I don't remember them saying anything about it.
I think you're totally right - nice, easy scapegoats for the cops. That way there's no real detective work going on.

The slaying of a college student in a downtown neighborhood frequented by beggars has forced this liberal city to ask a difficult question: Has Madison been too nice to the homeless? (more at link)

Yes...it is EXACTLY what they did!!! Lazy MPD. This doesn't bode well for them, imo.
Police have arrested dozens of transients on unrelated charges as part of the investigation, but none are considered suspects in the death. The city also announced plans Wednesday to confront problems at a nearby park where the homeless congregate, although those efforts were in the works before the murder.

You would think people in Madison would be totally outraged by this performance. I have said it before...it is a GOOD thing I do not live there!!
I'm sure all my Wis friends will scalp me for this statement. I moved here 22 yrs ago. Apologizing before I start here goes:
I moved here 22 yrs ago. I've always stood up for what I thought was right. As you all know. But..... When I 1st moved here to Wis I noticed the friends I met & encountered would complain & complain but never do a thing about anything.Some had never registered to vote. Yet persistently complained about the school taxes going up & up. Til I could take it no more & said Quit complaining if you don't go down & sign up to vote against these maniacs building new schools. Vote & help get the officals out of office creating these messes.
Unless the trouble knocks on there door they won't do nothing. I'm sure Ang & others on here will agree with me & knows many just like that. If I'm wrong I apologize.
DeSpain has a real talent! He is able to give an entire press release/statement without telling us a single thing. :furious: He did the same thing during the Nolan investigation. As far as I know, he never gave out ANY info on that one, and he probably never will.

Are they sure that the killer is homeless? What if it's a college student who looks very scruffy on purpose to disguise himself? Or a non homeless scruffy person?
mssheila, that if is weird; maybe LE there isn't sure if they may have caught the killer during their arrests of transients or not? I worry about the competence of this dept..

About the Bus idea- there's a Greyhound station within just a couple of blocks of Brittany's apartment, and all the muggings and robberies have been pretty centrally located near the bus station. Then again, downtown Madison is very small, so everything is pretty close in downtown. That was an interesting thought fran. It didn't even occur to me.
MeoW- I deleted the post about the "IF the killer is still on the loose" because it sounds like they're saying that because they've arrested so many homeless folks. *shrug*
I hope I'm wrong, but I do sincerely believe that MPD has a bunch of Barney Fife's running the show. Or Larry Moe and Curly. Shall we start calling Chief Wray by the name of Larry?
I was just browsing through some of the Madison.com forums. It's kind of interesting to see what people who live here are saying. Here's a link if anyone's interested. Hope it's okay to post it, and if it isn't, Mods- please delete.

ETA: One more thing.... MeoW- you said it could be a student who looked scruffy as a disguise. Can you imagine how lucky this killer is if he ISNT the same man that was walking into homes and businesses asking for $40 that same day, in the same area? Wow... that would be a heck of a coincidence, and awfully lucky for the murderer.

You never know with some of them; they are crafty; a disguise wouldn't surprise me.
Although if its the man who was harassing the one student for money and the radio station; maybe they said "if" as in meaning maybe he was checked into a mental hospital or rehab. A lot of homeless have dual diagnosis with substance abuse/mental illness..
