If (Massachusetts officials) knew she had problems, maybe they could have done something. Look how many lives were taken.”Jim Pillsburyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13994415040029248494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8517736040315331529.post-18445362810885559812010-02-17T17:23:50.405-05:002010-02-17T17:23:50.405-05:00John,

There seems to be lots of reasons for wrongful death, but who is being sued? The X Police Chief that now says, something was wrong back then, The State's who investigated, DeLaHunt for not pressing, the Alabama school who hired her, because her record was clean, or her Bishops mother? <br /><br />There are so many, in hind sight, root causes to this tragedy. But everyone agrees now, the warning signs were there and some how covered up, in the beginning. Not to learn from this, would be even a bigger crime, for the future. .Jim Pillsburyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13994415040029248494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8517736040315331529.post-13611515354321112502010-02-17T16:01:27.007-05:002010-02-17T16:01:27.007-05:00I think we should be spending more time grieving f...I think we should be spending more time grieving for the dead right now than we are talking about this woman who killed them.

I wonder how many times she pulled stuff like this that never got reported.

But the reality is that we can not undo the past, so no matter how mad you get that they let this nutcase go, they did it and now people in Alabama have paid the price. Those people who let her go in 86 have to live with that and it should mess them up for the rest of their lives that they did this.Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16494281230838787684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8517736040315331529.post-84397808573352592812010-02-16T16:16:24.043-05:002010-02-16T16:16:24.043-05:00The people in the know missed the guy at Fort Hood...The people in the know missed the guy at Fort Hood, and the people in the know messed up with this woman in Braintree years ago.

I don’t think so. The district attorneys office onlys sees things that are passed his way by the police departments. Maybe Braintree never even passed it his way since they did not file any charges against this lunatic.Dylanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15500510112171837810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8517736040315331529.post-53948383333784218642010-02-16T15:38:36.251-05:002010-02-16T15:38:36.251-05:00Question for you Jim.

Do these families in AL who lost a loved one because of this woman with a history get to sue the state of MA, or the Town of Braintree, for letting this woman go to kill again? You can bet if it was my husband or wife who got shot that I would be going after someone.Doreenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18193508701955948365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8517736040315331529.post-63773941312049155132010-02-16T15:16:41.626-05:002010-02-16T15:16:41.626-05:00If the plot gets too much thicker here it is going...If the plot gets too much thicker here it is going to become quicksand and just suck in anyone who was ever involved in the earlier cases. How can anyone justify letting that woman go? I know hindsite is 20 x 20, but didn’t they at least consider that if she did this once she might do it again and at least order her to have some sort of physch evaluation. Cops kick a guy to death because he had a joint in his pocket, and they let a woman go who shot and killed her brother walk away scott free. Something is fundamentally wrong with the way our police forces work in this state. Maybe something like this, where another state is now involved, will help to clean up the mess here in MA.Arnoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05141922914041566978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8517736040315331529.post-75532918670862296492010-02-16T15:07:39.345-05:002010-02-16T15:07:39.345-05:00This whole thing smells of a cover up.

Why was the police chief so willing to allow someone to walk out on a murder charge, we are not talking shop lifting here? I bet there was some hanky panky involved somewhere here.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17883779503241203058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8517736040315331529.post-67892917725736692022010-02-16T08:07:10.710-05:002010-02-16T08:07:10.710-05:00the plot thickens.... after seeing the Sate Police...the plot thickens.... after seeing the Sate Police report form the shooting of the brother in Braintree, the former Police Chief now questions why charges weren't filed against Bishop. And here's a stunner... our congressman Dellihunt was the district attorney back then. I wonder if this case will help Dellihunt make up his mind not to run again.Jim Pillsburyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13994415040029248494noreply@blogger.com
