    I went to school with Jeff. He had some behavioural problems but nothing severe, but he also would whizz through tests and make an A+ with little to no effort. It’s a shame because he had a good mind in those days, when he listened and applied himself. This is truly sad to see.

    I think everyone that is breathing today were raised in a rough world and the majority have lived a law abiding life without engaging in crime. This kind of thinking blaming the environment we live in for crimes of this nature is simply wrong.

    Gee, wonder what he spent the $400.00 on?

    This always hurts the heart. He was raised in a rough world. Very sad.

    How is this man still walking free? He has been arrested SIXTEEN (16) times according to Jailview.

    Should’ve learned his lesson the first time, seventeen times won’t do anything.
