Wonderful
A supposed witness gave false information in the most recent incident of the beltway sniper case. Thanks, asshole. A shooting happens in my county, and some FOB moron tampers with the case, just so he can get some presstime. What is this world coming to?
My conspiracy-theory radar is up again. Was he planted on the scene, to give a false account, so that Sniperoo could get away in a different vehicle than described? Or was he thinking that he would be safe in describing a cream-colored van with the left taillight out, because other witnesses had given similar accounts in previous cases? Jesus Tap-Dancing Christ.
The cops are telling us to discount what that non-witness said, which leaves us with the following description of Sniperoo:
1. Shoots people (we’ve confirmed he uses bullets, not bows-and-arrows)
2. Uses a vehicle (as it’s difficult to shoot people from the Metro)
3. Male (no one has disputed this yet, although what kind of man would do this?)
4. Likes to drive (have gun, will travel).
Well, that makes me feel safer than ever! Christ. Now to go off to work. Dare I say that my gas tank is gettin’ kinda low?
