Pleas continue to keep us informed on this. I know Chad through us both being motorcycle enthusiasts. I don't know him well enough to speculate on whether he is likely to have committed the crimes or not. I live on the opposite coast, which makes it harder to find out information beyond what news sites post. I tried looking things up through the court's website, but they don't share as much there as they do here.
ReplyDeleteIf the preliminary proceeds as scheduled on July 27, that will be the next update. If it is a six hour preliminary, I will try and update as much as I can during lunch and then at the end of the day.
DeleteI worked closely with this monster for two years. During this time he started off acting like the nicest guy in the world but later showed signs of psychopathy, narcissism and he had very bad anger issues. I feel so badly for his family. I believe he did do these things and that there wouldn't ba case or so much evidence if he hadnt.
