    How many legal dice games do you know that take place in the county? The dice game wasn’t the cause, someone wanted Mr. Clardy’s friend dead and put a hit out according to police.

    Lot of 24-7 work for investigators and tips coming in from community who know these thugs. I bet you will find them somewhere in the northern states visiting.

    And this will happen again and again. See society is going in the wrong direction daily. Ask yourself what can I do to help and what can I do to change things for the better. It’s extremely tough on kids today and even more so on parents.

    Bigblock345 you are preaching to the choir. Everybody knows your statements are true, especially the ones who are living off the government their whole lives. But we as a society must want it this way or we would not elect the same sorry leaders over and over again.

    @ Steve, I agree. I have long believed that those on government handouts should be sterilized to qualify. If you can not support yourself, you should not be allowed to bring more children into this world. It does not have to be permanent. When you get to where you can support yourself and your family without handouts. You can have it reversed to have more children. If you don’t accept this. Then you should NEVER get support from fed or state money. It is not the rest of society’s responsibility to support your poor choices, PERIOD.

    There will be no justice in this case. The death of a good and the waste of many bad.

    The are parents and then there are baby makers.
    Nearly EVERY case involving young people doing bad things comes at the lack of parental units. But yet society allows this to go unchecked. If you have a child with no means to support it that should be a wake up call not to have 4 or 5 more. It may seem insensitive to call out the problem with a solution. But the results now are killers at a very young age. Birth control works and there is no reason not to use it when the gov is already taking care of you and the mouths you created.

    Yes it sounds cruel my solution to the issue, but ask the parents PARENTS of the murder victim. And the reality they now face. Cruel is allowing children to run the streets with no hope of doing better. Cruel is living in terrible conditions and only blaming others. Cruelty is what we have as a society allowed to be the normal.

    But if done now it would take 20 years to complete, but I have a feeling if done those on it would realize the great step forward their lives would be.

    When found guilty, they aught to fry for killing Ladarius Clardy. A kid with a bright future, cut short by no good worthless trash. Fly high young man. Maybe soon justice will be served.

    Life seems to mean nothing to these 5 individuals.
    How does one get to that point in their existance?
    Oh, Yeah — Gang & Thug Life, Drugs, Illicit money, Criminal environment and slack laws in courts,

    Heartbreaking for the Clardy family who are representative of the thousands mourning lives taken because of the calous and uncaring acts of others.
    Hope that Justice is served and these murderers are never free again.

    Thanks to ECSO and the investigators who with help from the community put the puzzle parts together.
