    @Robert S I believe with the last 3 it brings the total to 29 so far this year.

    Do any of the media have an accounting for the number of murders since December 31, 2012, in Escambia Co., FL, including the City of Pensacola?

    Sure seems like if there are a few days without a murder then there are multiple murders close together, like this weekend, so far.

    Don’t see how anyone can blame the Sheriff or Chief of Police.
    The blame needs to go onto the person or persons who actually were involved in the deadly deed.

    Hard to understand how the idea to murder another person then spend the rest of their life in prison makes sense to the killers.
