Ratings. An inexcusable excuse.
I don't think all those people who are constantly standing around across the street from their house, harassing them every time they step out of the door, are concerned about ratings.

Did anyone else get the feeling that he would never be seen alive again when he went missing because you just knew he'd taken his own life or was that just me?

That's exactly what I thought as well. Also, I don't blame his family for "lawyering up" right away. Why shouldn't they? I honestly don't believe that if he hadn't done it, that it would have mattered to the prosecutors or police at all. They just want an arrest and conviction, and it's been proven over and over again that they don't care if the person they arrest and prosecute is guilty or not. If I had to have anything to do with the police I'd "lawyer up" in a NY minute.

Absolutely! At a time like this, people need sound legal advice, particularly if they didn't do it, and from what all the US criminal defence lawyers I follow (several of them former federal prosecutors) have said about it, that would most particularly be the case in an investigation like this.

I meant the media for ginning up those people's feelings. Sorry that wasn't clear.

Well, the media have been harassing them, too, but, I wasn't referring to the media. Their neighbors are being harassed as well.

And the media is stirring up the vigilantes. For a better story.

Minnesota is catching up to Florida: 'It's A Free Country': Man Threatens TSA Agent's Life, Throws Checkpoint Stanchion, Strips Naked & Masturbates, Charges State

What I found most astounding of all is that he stripped naked, ran around the airport and masturbated and never was approached by law enforcement until he threatened a TSA. :confusedcat:
It didn't say he was charged with lewd acts or indecent exposure, either. Unless that's all just normal behavior in some parts of Minnesota?
They really are catching up, though. From a link on the same page :

Why do they have to say she was "obviously mentally unwell" when her behavior was that of an obviously racist, angry, anti-masker asshole?
By that metric, a lot of people out there are obviously mentally unwell....

Well, I'm pretty sure there's a correlation between being ultraconservative and being mentally unwell...
