This is America. People are supposed to be presumed innocent before a judgement of guilt is decided, regardless of the circumstances or your own personal knowledge of the situation. If you disagree, Canada's only a short drive away aye!

There is nothing fishy here in Watertown. The only thing that stinks is your comment. Brandy is my cousins stepdaughter and the whole family is horrified and you have no right to make comments like this. Where is your respect?? In the river with the fish you like?? There is a reason he is a suspect in the case and the police have reason to believe that he did this. Are you a cop, an investigator, or emergency management?? I am very happy that they did name him it helped get. RIP Brandy.

Boy they named this guy a suspect faster than the Dallas police named Lee Harvey the killer of Kennedy. Something smells fishy in Watertown, and it isn't Teri Redlin.

So what's the story here? The girl wanted to break off the interracial relationship and the guy didn't like the idea?
