Murder as an extreme act-one of my favorite fictional characters is Inspector Harry Hole (pronounced Holy) in the series by Jo Nesbo. He’s been mentioned in this blog once before. He is always on target with his observations as so many fictional characters are. Here is what he says about murder which may or may not apply in the Stacey Burns case.
“Committing a murder is such an extreme act that many repress it. They can walk around with like a kind of half-forgotten nightmare. It’s when others say it out loud that they realize it is not just something that exists in their head. It did happen.”
Well, killer of Stacey Burns, are you able to repress it? Even six years and counting later?

That is what I tried to say, only you can make it real enough that would wake someone up to reality, instead of walking around in a half dream, wake them up write that book make it so real with everyone talking about it that someone will not be able to fool themselves by blocking it out.Write the book please it will hit someone some where.

Exactly !! The media could blow this case wide open and flush Eddie the animal out of his comfort zone. They never will, Stacey wasn’t ‘important’ enough for them to challenge the AG’s office over. Let an old man say the ‘n’ word and they (the media) will demand something get done. All it would take is half a dozen women on the steps of the concord capitol building demanding Gov. Hassan fire lead detective Gilbert and replace AAG. Strelzin because this murder was,is and always has been a “NO BRAINER” !! demand new people NOW before another 7 years go past. For those wondering why the authorities find a diversionary suspect, this is why, so no one will state the obvious for fear they might be wrong. Sickening, how cowardly all you phony friends really are.
