What About This Crime Bothers Me

First is the loss the child suffered.

Second is the loss the family continues to suffer.

This crime occupies my mind, my heart and my entire being.

A child is at school, after school, in Science Club is what is in my mind.  He leaves the care of the school and moves to the care of the community.  A community I love.  A community like the one I grew up in.  The community my wife did grow up in.  One of the schools she went to.  Homes here are still often referred to by the names of the people who built the homes almost a century ago or those who came to live in them around World War II.  Homes occupied by people who built and continue to build our city.  Homes occupied by people who do not miss anything that goes on in our neighborhood.  So my mind says what happened was not missed but the link that makes the knowledge of what happened known to the Houston Police Department is missing.

The police were called and many law enforcement agencies have put a lot of hours into working on solving this crime.  This was a horrific crime where the bad person had a lot of contact with the child.  Yet there is not enough DNA evidence to make a case.  Where did it go?  Did people seeking to help the child, neighbors, Houston Fire Department, Houston Police Department, other Law Enforcement officers, crime scene investigators, the lab it was sent to, the lab they sent it to manage not to preserve it?

Was the bad person capable of doing this horrendous and very physical crime without leaving any DNA or getting any DNA on them?

Why have our local law enforcement and District Attorney's office not answered these questions?

Who will answer these questions?

Specialty Shopping Just West of Near Northside

This Facebook post began to look like a blog:

Boneless wings, pickle chips and local mozzarella





Then:

Wings and chips from Walgreens. The Mozz from Houston Dairymaids. I have been going to the farmer's market in the back of Canino's early in the am for more than a few decades but this shop is a nice find. People have been asking me for a few years if I had been to it when I mentioned Bolillo's. It is not across from Bolillo's as they all said but a few blocks south on the west side of Airline. The spice shop that is across the street is a place you should pay a visit to as well.
