None of this is at all relevant to the shooting case. All the cops need to show is that this guy drove to the victim's house and started shooting. If they can do that, they have a solid probable cause for murder charge. What happened before isn't going to change that.

The before hand stuff could lead to charges against someone in the victim's family, especially if drugs were involved. But this would more likely be in the vein of kicking off a separate drug dealing investigation.

I was thinking something more scandalous, like the mother was involved with the shooter, but yours is the most plausible explanation. I just couldn't imagine the mom, even that one, bringing the daughter on a drug buy. My vote goes to your story.

The problem I have is, every time I try to piece this together in a non-scandalous way, I fall back to: then why the preposterous, ill-conceived coverups?

That news story reeks of BS.

Unfortunately, the reporters can't get away with writing, "Everyone involved is feeding us a line of crap. It is unlikely the truth is ever going to come out."

Wow. Hyperbole based on no facts. Imagine that. On the internet no less.

I'm not sure how I've ever given you rep points, much less so many that I must "spread it around", but I 100% agree with you
