Good morning, I'm Charlie Fingers, and I'm here at the site of another odd
murder, one which Lone Star has been unwilling to comment on. Apparently,
a Halloweener was discovered this morning around 6 with 5 wooden arrows in
him, pinned to a wall. The name of the ganger hasn't been released yet,
and Lone Star has only said that he wasn't a vampire, the only good use
these days for wooden arrows. But with the recent arrival of the
Department of Paranormal Investigation, and thier total sealing off of the
area, including astral patrols I'm told, we've been unable to get any
additional information from Lone Star on this one. This reporter wonders
why Lone Star is being so blatant about thier coverup this time, and also
why no-one has demanded to know the identity of the ganger as well as
permission to photograph the murder site.

That's all I had on that one. The Dips are keeping it tight enough that
even I haven't been able to get word from any of my Lone Star sources on
what's going on with it, much to my personal chagrin. However, this one is
a little different.
I have it on good authority that the knife killer struck again. Detective
Maxwell Seal, from Homocide, is the investigating officer of the recent
knife murders. This time the murder victim was another intellectual,
specifically a humanist writer and journal publisher who was recently
arrested at the Wood's Door coffee shop up on University Hill for
disturbing the peace. Apparently he was incensend at the use of
mycoprotein milk in artificial coffee that the shop used. Being something
of a coffee snop myself, I can understand, but he was apparently a regular
there and had never had problems with thier coffee before. But where all
the prior knife murders were only single knives, this one was 5
black-handled Bowie survival knives, apparently one in each arm, one in
each leg, and one in the gut. Not a nice way to go, not at all. They
still have no clues on this one, except that the guy was more irritable
than usual, and someone thought they spotted someone following him out of
Wood's Door last night.
And last but not least, here's one for the weird annals. Apparently, a
woman was found to have killed herself with a pistol in what was thought to
be a suicide. At least, until they tried to understand how all 5 of the
woman's Waterford wine glasses had been shattered by the same bullet that
went through her head. Too well placed to be an accident, or a suicide.
At least, that's what Detective Pardy, who is on what Homocide is calling
the "goblet" case. Of course, if the goblets hadn't been shattered, it
might have worked. The victim had been seeing a psychiatrist for
depression following her husband leaving, filing for divorce, and taking
all three kids and just about everything she owned too. He's a suspect,
but since this is another serial killing, not a major one.
Damn, two serial murderers going at the same time.
