Shooting at Kirkwood City Hall

Thursday, February 7, 2008 (Updated 2/8/2008)

Wow, got home from dinner tonight and the news is filled with information about Charles Lee "Cookie" Thornton who apparently went nuts at Kirkwood City Hall this evening shooting 7 or more people and killing from what they say 5.

Where is Kirkwood in relationion to where I live? Not far, I actually have been to the building where the shootings occured, a few times. I used to live in Kirkwood. Our office in Des Peres is in the city that borders Kirkwood.

I believe there is a coverup here. Originally some of the neighbors of the community were glad that the news people were finally getting there to hear their voices about Cookie's plight. Ten years worth of fight says something to me that there is something more involved here than thousands of dollars worth of tickets, though that it in itself is an eye opener. I have tried to find the originaly videos concerning this shooting to look over again. His brother made it clear that there were some issues that have not been addressed in the news, and it all seems to be hushed to voice the sorrow, and NOT THE TRUTH!
