Nope. Either the police are still investigating or they already handed over their reports to the DA's office.

Yeah, and slimy sociopaths can look like bankers. The BTK killer was an example of that, and there have been many others.

I'm sure it helps.

Not to put too fine point on it, if the police roll up to the reported scene of a shooting and find one person with a neat haircut (or hair style in the case of women) and neat clean clothes who looks sober, versus someone who looks like he slept in a ditch or is strung out or wearing gang colors, they probably will make up their minds quickly.

It's a quandry.

I used to think that grooming, dress, and comportment would make a difference. However, I am not so sure now.

In El Paso yesterday a man was shot and wounded when a fight erupted in a restaurant at 9 a.m. Several suspects are reported to be in custody. The location is reported as Gallegos Restaurant in the 9300 block of Dyer. This means nothing to me, but some of y'all know El Paso.

What I found noteworthy was the time of day.

I'm gonna go get me some huevos rancheros now.
