Once again for the one viewer that questioned this post. WE DO NOT ENDORSE the views or things that come across Facebook - We would not publish this, but to those who are commenting on how well they cover this story - many things are inaccurate in their quck draw journalism. As I have been telling you... we won't put our name on these things, but we will let you know the other things that are out on the web. I have also told you that you need patience as most things won't come out until the trial. I wholeheartedly agree... if news outlets can't confirm receiving a 2nd 911 call... why would they print what was "supposedly said in there." I sent an email to WWAY news was sent asking how they could print that without actually seeing it or being able to quote and attribute the statement. THERE was no response.
