Title: Someone I know was murdered the other night Post by: Allhallowsday on June 14, 2018, 05:41:44 PM Someone I know was murdered the other night... by handgun; the tenant killer then killed himself with it.
I have known Gerry for decades, but not well. Many good friends were close friends, though. I remember a gentle quiet polite man. Many people knew Gerry. No-one seems to know the tenant.

Title: Re: Someone I know was murdered the other night Post by: Allhallowsday on June 14, 2018, 08:29:21 PM Sorry for your loss. Thanks for your kind words, he is a loss to many I love. I think the only thing worse than having someone you love die suddenly is to have that someone be murdered.

Title: Re: Someone I know was murdered the other night Post by: RCMerchant on June 14, 2018, 09:23:45 PM Yeah, I been through that a couple times.
It always freaks me out. :bluesad: Title: Re: Someone I know was murdered the other night Post by: indianasmith on June 14, 2018, 09:26:41 PM You know what is weird?
I have been closely acquainted with two different people who vanished without a trace and have never been found! Title: Re: Someone I know was murdered the other night Post by: Allhallowsday on June 14, 2018, 10:49:15 PM I am haunted.
Title: Re: Someone I know was murdered the other night Post by: RCMerchant on June 14, 2018, 11:30:16 PM I had freinds and family murdered. It puts the fear of death into you. :bluesad:
Title: Re: Someone I know was murdered the other night Post by: Svengoolie 3 on June 14, 2018, 11:54:27 PM My next door neighbor was nearly murdered at about 4am, Aug. 27, 2016. The stupid, psychotic b***h who broke into her house literally did not know how to operate a gun and as such ejected the clip instead of taking the safety off. She hit my neighbor with the gun opening a bloody gash in her scalp and took off. I heard her screams and called 911.
So it almost happened next door to me not long ago.

Horrible news: sending hugs your way. Title: Re: Someone I know was murdered the other night Post by: ER on June 15, 2018, 08:58:00 AM Shame your friend wasn't armed.
Title: Re: Someone I know was murdered the other night Post by: RCMerchant on June 15, 2018, 12:56:55 PM Shame your friend wasn't armed. It's a shame the guy who shot him was. Title: Re: Someone I know was murdered the other night Post by: Pacman000 on June 15, 2018, 01:26:10 PM Let's not turn this into another debate thread; this is a time of grief.
People have been murdered since prehistory, & armament isn't a guarantee against tragedy. :( Title: Re: Someone I know was murdered the other night Post by: Allhallowsday on June 15, 2018, 02:02:23 PM Let's not turn this into another debate thread; this is a time of grief.

I agree with RCMerchant because it's a bucket full of questions that fell on the floor when I heard the news. The crash was deafening... unlike a gunshot which from a handgun sounds like a corn pop. This is why Ron is my friend. Somehow, he gets me. Title: Re: Someone I know was murdered the other night Post by: RCMerchant on June 15, 2018, 02:12:26 PM It's.a.horrible.thing.I.been.throughi.it.

Title: Re: Someone I know was murdered the other night Post by: HappyGilmore on June 19, 2018, 05:35:37 PM I'm so sorry to hear this. It's something I've had happen. A good friend was murdered by two guys a few years back right near Christmas. Although, if anything 'good' came from it, the cops got the guys and they're locked away.
Sympathies to everyone who knew your friend. |
