We also hit on the EX CON who "a-l-l-e-g-e-d-l-y" kidnaped, raped, robbed a Wilmington brother and sister. He should have not been released from prison, or so we say.

BOLO - Murder suspect on the loose

This week's show was mostly keeping our listeners aware of a murder suspect on the loose. We frequently gave out the vehicle descriptions and plate numbers.

We had a few callers voicing their disappointment with the city's selection of finalists for the Chief of Police position. The concern was there was a lack of serious effort to include a local candidate in the search.

Recent news items were discussed. Naked drive thru customer at Bo-Jangles. Gunshot victim we nicknamed "ricochet" who was shot for the third time this past week. Salute to a fallen officer from the NHSO back in the 1930's.A tip of the hat to Lt. Detective Morgan of the Raleigh Police for coming back from retirement to finish up a murder investigation that just got new leads.

Domestic Violence

With the two recent murders of UNCW students by men they had accused of stalking them has caused a serious concern for protection.

We reported on the Walk to Remember event to "Stomp out child abuse" in Jacksonville earlier today. This brought up the issue of child abuse and Marc had just recently gone on a call to a residence that had two toddlers left alone in a house over night. His discription of the living environment was vivid in it's detail of a discusting house that literally will take your breath away.
