Almost every citywide source that has posted about this has a different nugget – the Times has the most thorough information on his criminal background, for example. It’s been widely reported that the Longfellow Creek Apartments unit on Delridge where he allegedly fired shots through a window bulletholeswindow.jpgyesterday morning (photo from WSB contributor Sage K) is where his girlfriend lives; exactly what ties he had to the Central District restaurant where he is accused of opening fire half an hour later, killing the restaurant’s owner and wounding another man, is still not clear, though the owner’s niece is quoted as saying her uncle did “know” Davis-Bell somehow. The suspect was captured after a manhunt that is said to have involved more than 100 officers, many of them out on the streets all night.

  1. Idiot needs to be locked up at least 55 years plus without the possibility of parole. If you take a life, parole should not be an option!!

  2. Should living be an option for such a murderer? In classic example many tax dollars will probably be spent defending the idiot, also to feed, cloth, house and provide medical service to the idiot. And all for why? Because of some sad reason it is societies fault the idiot became an idiot, was raised an idiot, has a long history of being an idiot. Now the icing on the idiot’s cake is murder, attempted murder, etc. Though it will not be the idiot’s fault, just ask his defending attorney. We should all pay to rehabilitate the idiot, after all the idiot could not be held accountable for his actions. How could anyone in our liberal society be held responsible for their actions? It must be someone else’s fault! The idiot is young, possibly the idiot will fall prey to prison justice? One can only hope!
