Re: murder

What can we do?

One try proper capitalization and some punctuation.

Two, try using some carriage returns.

Three, try proof reading you entry.

Four, Stick to facts that matter.

Five, Ask a question that concerns your legal problem not anybody Else's. If they don't care why should you and why should we.

If you want some free legal advice fine but do have an entry that doesn't looking like it was written who forgot 99% of what they taught you in English grammar.
