No idea why but think we have not seen the last of this mess - James Tue, 22 Jul 2008 18:04:08 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/5033/919/#comment-6372 In my opinion Edmonds is a very bad person all around. If he wasn\'t selling dope no one would have came to his home in the first place. He ultimately put his home and family in danger by his actions. I\'m not so sure anything is normal here. No win situation for all involved. I believe in protecting one\'s family and home, but I\'m torn with this one. I wasn\'t there so I must keep an open mind. As for Hughes he is on the line for the very poor decisions he and all the others made. My heart goes out to all. - gabby Tue, 22 Jul 2008 05:57:04 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/5033/919/#comment-6367 In your article you use the term \"murder\". Murder is a legal conclusion. This was clearly a \'homicide\' but until someone is convicted of \'murder\' it remains a homicide and is inappropriate usage to call it murder. - Gary Shelton Mon, 21 Jul 2008 20:02:39 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/5033/919/#comment-6360 sad is right but dont make edmonds a bad person any normal person would have done this and for saying the wrong place at the wrong time you bet they were because most likely they werent smoking a little bit of pot they were doing worse then that no the ones who rob steal and beat and kill people are ussally the druggies - angela69 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 18:15:14 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/5033/919/#comment-6352 These guys just weren\'t at the wrong place at the wrong time. They came from out of town to rob an alleged dope dealer. When dope, guns, and money are involved what can possibly go right? A precedence needs to be set. I think Edmonds should be held accountable for his part in this tragedy. - gabby Mon, 21 Jul 2008 14:39:34 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/5033/919/#comment-6349 This is the finest piece I have seen written, and I have read the Co CO Times and others. This is sad - for all - I am trully amazed that this had to be for such high stakes. And in all honesty it does not seem fair to prosecute this young man in a bad place, a deal shoul have been reached of a lesser stance that would provide closure and fairness. Just sad all around. The gentleman Edwards seems partly at fault for his actions before and after this event. Sad all around. No ending will seem fair due to I believe overeach by a good barrister here in Lake County. - CobbMt Mon, 21 Jul 2008 10:19:15 +0100
