1. That Does Not Explain Police Scanner Chatter
Wed Apr 24, 2013, 04:42 PM

Blame the internet sleuths all you want, but there has, "coincidentally", been absolutely no comment from the police department as to why the full names and birthdates of those 2 named individuals, was broadcast over the scanners during the chase.

I was following the story on Thursday, and I still do not understand how the police just came up with those names as the "suspects."

Also very interesting and curious, is the fact that there is now apparently no record of that scanner announcement, even though it was clearly heard by many people tuned in Thursday night.

Perhaps less people would jump on the "conspiracy" bandwagon, if the authorities were a little more forthcoming about their errors and theories. Brushing it off with comments like...."it was chaos, and it should be expected that there was a lot of disinformation being floated around," seems to be the preferred method of explaining away obvious incorrect conclusions during the heat of the moment.

Since 9/11, I honestly do not know when I can believe something I am told, and when I should question it as BS.
