      That is the word on the street. He shot his own damn self. So I guess he is the one the cops have to arrest for shooting himself.

        If he shot himself why has he not been arrested for possession and use of a firearm?

    I wasn’t expecting an arrest or charge any time/in the future. After all the outstanding unsolved murders and NOTHING, that would have been some kind of miracle and the victim is still very much alive.

    Let’s move along please.
