Also if they live in an affordable housing network this can also happen. While it doesn't help those who live with baby momma #10 and #7 to keep off a lease, they do random inspections. If they just drug tested for all these programs before helping those we probably wouldn't have such long waiting list.

As for coryalbooboo, if you really have a problem or evidence than take it up in court. If you don't like Ms. Nancy Tabor for something in your custody battle, that is not a valid point for you to come on her and say that she needs to be investigated. Otherwise every single parent not happy with something in their custody dispute would have every judge, lawyer etc investigated. Come with a better argument.

If you are smoking pot or cigarettes it doesn't matter, you shouldn't expose anyone else to your smoke. Just like the pollution from your car doesn't hurt the kids any... right...

If it were legal people would, it is no different than drinking liquor/alcohol in front of the kids, you just shouldn't do it. These 2 are complete idiots, but doesn't mean the rest of the world is...

Sad YES, very sad. But if this man didnt do it he has every fair chance just like someone else. They are reporting it b/c there are always 2 sides to each story. What if he is telling the truth, what if you don't want to hear his story b/c you are the culprit. Do you know his story to be false?? Well if not than I suggest you wait for the trial.

She had to of had the persons dna on her somewhere. It doesn't have to be found on HIM, it could have been taken from HER. Fri, 25 Mar 2011 15:33:48 +0000 http://www.kcrg.com/news/local/Murder-Suspect-Says-Prosecutors-Dont-Have-DNA-Evidence-Against-Him-118619879.html#IDComment137507453 http://www.kcrg.com/news/local/Murder-Suspect-Says-Prosecutors-Dont-Have-DNA-Evidence-Against-Him-118619879.html#IDComment137507224 And just b/c someone has been convicted of a felony doesn't mean they are a bad person. They can change. Some felonies are BS. A person doesn't have to be an "UPSTANDING CITIZEN" everyone has the same rights in a court room. Innocent until proven guilty. I sure hope none of you get busted for a "j" or something b/c then you will become the felon, and ooops you no longer a productive member of society. Hopefully if this guy didn't do it yes he can prove it.

If the DNA report is the actual report, the prosecution won't comment on it, b/c it may blow their case. They need to find more evidence, they need a way to keep their caase. We the peop le can't judge bas ed off media. They are d ra ma qu eens just as well. I hope whoever did this is brought to justice. Just b/c this man had a previous record doesn't mean anything at all. Some people change, not everyone sticks to a criminal life. I have seen it before with my own eyes. Is it really our job to judge???? I thought that was what the law and the man above were for.

Most of them are done through Relay service calling for the deaf or by email as they can't call long distance. Their names are normal to completely off the wall. So sorry to bust your Chi-town bubble on this one, but it most likely is from overseas. As for the check scams, people from all over pull that crap. I used to have some crazy WHITE lady that always tried to write checks from other peoples accounts and she always had id with that name, funny she never changed her look. What about all those boys a few years back that were making illeagal payroll checks and cashing them, all local CR people.. soo sorry to bust your bubble on this one. I know it is typical to blame all the BS here on Chi-Town as a lot of it comes from there, but it also comes from everywhere else too!

Wow so I am going to sue my husband's employer because them making him work causes me to lose his companionship.... Some people are a little too greedy... But it was bound to happen eventually, i am surprised the first law suit took this long to be filed.

Tattoos on the neck mean nothing of the sort... This degenerate looks like he came from the funny farm, his tattoos have nothing to do with it. (unless he has a tattoo of sex abuse) Plenty of people (non baby rapers) as you call them have tattoos on their necks... I am pretty sure that the people I know who have their children's names or family symbols tattooed on their necks are not mole sting their children... give me a break...

I don't even see where it would b relevant. If a person pass.es away, but recently had a speeding ticket, you don't post that. Respect the family. Rip to this woman and prayers for her family.

When you pass away we will find something from your past and make sure to mention it.. .just b/c people get in trouble doesn't mean they can't change. RIP to the young woman and prayers to her family. I hope you find the answers you are seeking.

There may be "people" who ride bikes that are "meth heads", or drunks as you call them, but there are just as many of them running around in your so called world, so i guess that makes you just as much as a degenerate as you say us "bikers" are... how much have you donated to charities in the last year, how often do you reach out to help? How often do you and a harmless group of your friends get together to do something you enjoy that is LEGAL??? People on bikes don't do anything different than people in cars, it's just some BS stereotype for you to run your mouth at..
