#2 Any bets that ATM robberies drop off drastically in TX the next few weeks. The JUSTIFIED Shooter has likely saved many lives and billfolds by his actions.

Anyone have any details about the Robbers?
Because the MEDIA sure isn't sharing any demographics or possible previous criminal histories.

/\ Anyone have any details about the Robbers?

Looked at a dozen on-line stories. Media release nearly identical in all 12. Same info, "2 men in their twenties." End of description. No names, no fotos.

Yes, I also call it news censorship.

In other news:

Uvalde shooter manifesto still not available to the public.

"On May 24, 2022, a mass shooting occurred at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, United States, where 18-year-old Salvador Ramos, a former student at the school, fatally shot 19 students and two teachers, while 17 others were injured but survived."

Seth Rich Murder remains 'Cold Case.'

Owner of recently found White House cocaine remains a mystery.

#8 Unlikely in Houston, we see this sort of thing every week. The prosecutors are too scared to do that since they know the grand jury or jury will not convict. Instead they concentrate on letting the criminals go, so a few dead ones they don't care about.
