Is tha picture the shooter or the dead guy?
Yet another…..
The revolving door just keeps a spin’n.
As Huell Houser would say, “Jose Medina-Gonzales, a FINE example of California pile of shhhhhhaving cream, be nice and clean…”
@9:52. Yet another gangster running amuck killing other gangsters. Yes. Criminal too. Light bulb go on yet?
LCP112233 – yeah, I get it…. you don’t like finishing your sentences, the light bulb is on clear as day!
News Flash to the Uninformed: Common knowledge amongst those who knew him in the Palm Springs area, Huell was one sick Mo-fo. Plenty of his twisted debauched escapades are legend in “the community.” Rock Hudson would blush. Es muy dificil de creer….unless you know-know.
LCP112233 – “Yet another” what? Criminal? I don’t get it.
In the past it was a problem extraditing murderers from Mexico because it is a capital crime, and that Catholic country would not let someone be brought back here if they might be killed as punishment. Now instead we will at best hold feed and clothe him as a ward of the state for decades. Justice.
