I don't quite understand why this demojerk would have covered up this. This blackwidow was only 20 and her brother 18. Yes, quite a tragedy, but to extrapolate from the recent killings to her brother's killing seems a bit of a stretch. Unless she discovered at age 20 that somehow the law doesn't apply to her.

The relationship, if any, that needs to be investigated thoroughly, is the one between Delahunt and the Mother of Amy Bishop. The Mother, we're told, was a member of the city's Personnel Board at the time of the boys death. A reasonable and prudent investigator would be right to get all of the pertinent facts surrounding THAT relationship.

If Delahunt decides tomorrow that he's no longer a candidate for re-election, it may be a hint as to what's to come.

Yes, quite a tragedy

If the reports I've seen are correct then she killed her brother in a fit of rage. Not an accident. That's relevant to the recent case. It's also interesting that a person who seemingly should have at least been charged with manslaughter got off scot-free, perhaps due to political interference.

It's pretty hard to accidently discharge a pump action shot gun three times. The statement by the current Braintree Police Chief reports that cops who worked on the case said there was a hole in a wall, one in her brother and another one in the ceiling.

According to the Braintree PD, the file on the case disappeared by sometime in 1988. The current police chief seems really upset about the whole story and has called for an investigation.

And that is quite a story about the letter bomb as well...murderous violence seems to follow this woman around....

Bishop would be a great advisor to the bouncy Ms Janet Napolitano and would fit right in with the zanies among the many "czars" and commissars little o has appointed for fear of disturbing the Senate into an up-or-down vote.

Also, she helped the job situation in little o's eyes by wiping out the entire biology department at UAH & giving other less-qualified bio specialists a chance to be denied tenure.

My brother-in-law on the Harvard faculty just finished a stint in McLean’s, where he did a “sabbatical” while trying to shut down the voices in his head. He’s a nice and sane enuf guy, and my theory is that he got zany from the tranference working with all the Hahvahd socialists/scientists brimming over with recessive moral behavior excusable only because of their exalted status as brainiacs. The three females who run his dept are far outside the norm---[all daughters of Sappho and/or Lesbos] and harbor eccentric foibles that Bishop may have shared, like hating males of all stripes and sizes..
