Are the people in Lewiston still locked down? [View all]

If if goes on much longer, people are going to start running out of fresh food. I doubt the delivery services are operating. Are USPS mail carriers working? If they don't know where the killer is, no one is really safe.

I saw stories about the victims, but not any updates on locating the killer.

If he is actively psychotic with hallucinations, he may make some mistakes. Irish_Dem Oct 2023 #9

If he made escape plans Marthe48 Oct 2023 #11

About one in five of all serial killers were psychotic at the time of their crimes. Irish_Dem Oct 2023 #13

Thank you for the measured response Marthe48 Oct 2023 #19

Yes it is complicated. Irish_Dem Oct 2023 #22

Jeffery Dalhmer was pretty careful Kaleva Oct 2023 #15

Easy for you peacefreak2.0 Oct 2023 #30

I live in NYC and have my whole life so you don't know what you are talking about. I'm done. GuppyGal Oct 2023 #34

And obviously a person close to the situation found your joke difficult to stomach. Scrivener7 Oct 2023 #32

Read Carefully! Nowhere did I say I was making a 'JOKE' I said I was making a POINT GuppyGal Oct 2023 #33

You didn't have to SAY you made a joke. You made a joke in post #7 about the situation. And no, nothing went over my Scrivener7 Oct 2023 #36

OMG that wasn't a joke it's called sarcasm. The nonsense is the BS that I and they said this to other posters as GuppyGal Oct 2023 #37

Once again, that poster is clearly someone who is being closely affected by the shootings. Scrivener7 Oct 2023 #38

Thank you for your kindness. peacefreak2.0 Oct 2023 #39

When it affects your home town and your circle, it is VERY personal. Scrivener7 Oct 2023 #40

Kind of silly to have the whole city on lockdown--frightened people Wingus Dingus Oct 2023 #17

The Boston police department did the same thing after the marathon bombers hit the city. Irish_Dem Oct 2023 #26

I saw a headline that the law is dragging the river Marthe48 Oct 2023 #24

If his boat is missing then this is a good option to pursue. Irish_Dem Oct 2023 #27
