1. so is it the pastor of a church like the discussion in GD is stating?
that would make it all the more "sensational"...

I feel very bad for the victims.

8. The TV news in KC said
he had been elected by the congregation of his church to a leadership position. He was also a long time Boy Scout leader.

2. I don't watch mainstream news--how did they get him?

And how sure are they it is the right guy?

4. His daughter turned him in....
His daughter who is 26 was suspicious and contracted police. I don't know if both her and her mom called police but I know she did.

They have many samples of his DNA from over the years. I was a simple match using hers or I've also heard she took his razor to the police.

Its a DNA match,there is no jumping to conclusions on this like others have mentioned.

3. They just said on Americas Most Wanted that he was involved in
local politics. Does he hold any office, and what are his political leanings?

6. He worked for the City of Park City Kansas...
As a complience officer,many have said he was quite the asshole about anything and everything but that I'm sure would go with his personality.

I've yet to hear anything about him holding office or running for office.

5. Could you post the thread, please?
I was having a bad day, so I didn't click on it in LBN. Sometimes it just feels like piling on. Better now. Help would be appreciated.

9. someone on tonight NBC's Nightly News
I believe it was the retired lead officer-said the trophys stitched him up...so I guess mementos he took from the crime were found...
He was also a scout leader in his church.
