Murder Coverage Appreciated
Your coverage of the horrible murders of the young Christian men in Colorado was most commendable. Thank you for sharing the witness of the faith of the Turville family that their son and brother is indeed in heaven with our Lord--and that they have forgiven his killer. These senseless, tragic murders should prove to us once and for all how the violence-filled rap music can afflict a troubled mind. May God forgive us for allowing it.

* In your story about the tragic, execution-style slaying of three young Orange County men in Colorado by their deranged roommate, one phrase stood out among the horror: “Firing his 9-millimeter Baretta. . . .”
How did such an obviously unbalanced youth, on parole for a violent crime, come into possession of a handgun? That such a person was able to obtain a firearm is outrageous.
