This is the second murder of a homeless person in Brentwood this year. We need to take care of this riffraff and keep our city safe.

No one knows if it was a murder or if it was a homeless person so why do people make comments like they do

You’ll need to turn yourself in Daniel. You know more than most, about this. Sounds like you’ve got some info, son . They’ll just locate you from your email address. Make it easier and come down to the department and talk, or do it the hard way/SWAT. Think about it, son.
