You don’t seem too worked up about this, Frank, so I assume you weren’t on the best of terms… but you have my sympathy if you require it. I thought this was going to be a joke thread. ☹ ---

Very sorry **Frank**. If there are any questions you have this board has a lot of smart people, I am sure any of us would be happy to help publicly or via pm. I’ve covered my fair share of murders over the years and I would be happy to offer any information or advice that may help. Good luck! ---

> [@Really\_Not\_All\_That\_Bright](#): > > You don’t seem too worked up about this, Frank, so I assume you weren’t on the best of terms… We were on fine terms when we talked on the phone (except when she wanted me to wire her money for drugs), or saw each other at family get-togethers. I’ll admit, we didn’t go out of our way to communicate. I have extremely fond memories of us growing up; she and I were the closest alike. (We were two years apart in age.) Whatever there is in me that kept me from going down that path was not in her, and I’ve grieved for that for decades. ---
