    Yikes. Yeah, that would be a reason to delay the inquest here, as dealing with more than one PR nightmare at a time can be somewhat tricky.

    These recent incidents, and several more, are all beginning to snowball and becoming a much larger problem when viewed as a whole by the local public. Furtive movement and articulation are starting to sound like CYA and cover up to the general populace.

    My reason for stating this is talking to friends & family, interviews on the local news of many citizens and also people calling into radio stations with complaints and speculation.

    It's easy to perceive something nefarious with the delay.

    A high profile case like this, with all the variables that have already been discussed, shouldn't be rushed. If there's more work to be done, let it be done prior to the inquest so that the inquest is more thorough/complete/etc.

    We could all speculate on this endlessly. Some of it will be some pretty well based and educated speculation, but who knows.

    As I said before: In the end, may justice be done, however the chips fall.

    It is, because their past history has given us no reason to not think that way. If Metro's actions throughout their history and especially recent history had been mostly on the up and up, then the people would be more forgiving, but they haven't been.

    The family of the man who was shot and killed by Metro outside Costco is putting more pressure on investigators.

    You've seen the electronic billboards around town, asking for witnesses to the shooting of Erik Scott at the Summerlin Costco to come forward.

    Scott's family says since those were put up, they've gotten about 400 hits a day on their website... And have received dozens of phone calls from witnesses and people who want to help. The family is grateful for the support from the community, but they say what they really need now is for Metro to release the surveillance videos from that day at Costco. So this weekend, they're going to change the billboards and ask the sheriff to do that.

    We've heard from Metro that there were possible glitches in the surveillance video, and that it was sent out of state for analysis.

    I'd think the 2nd Amendment Foundation would have a better chance of looking into it. I doubt that the NRA wants to ruffle any LE feathers.

    Who wants to bet the data ends up being "corrupted" or lost?

    How would the NRA looking into Costco's CCW policy ruffle LE feathers?

    IDK, I think in this situation that would be more than nefarious.
