Hell, it's either a) becoming passe, or b) too messy this time and the
reporter couldn't get the footage past the normally brain-dead censors.
+++++Include footage: famxfiction.trid
The clip is taken from one of Seattle's cookie-cutter affiliate stations.
The anchor puts on his best "stiff upper lip in the face of tragedy" face
as the headline: FAMILY CRUCIFIED rezes into existence behind him.
"Renton has again been rocked with tragic violence. In the normally
quiet neighborhood of Maplewood, a family of three elves has been found
murdered, the police believe that they were crucified _alive_ to the walls
of their living room and _bled_ to death."
A trid image of a home cordoned off with police tape comes up behind him.
A couple of forensic technicians are working in the background, while an
LSS patrolman looks only slightly interested with his duty of keeping the
few reporters from trampling evidence.
A still of the family dressed in their Easter best is inset on the image.
"Police, as yet, have declined to comment about who would desire to so
brutally murder Mark Swenson, 39, or his wife One Leaf, 36, and their only
son David, 12, but the attack appears to be racially motivated. The
victims were metahumans, and the words 'Let there be light' were scrawled
on the wall. So far, no human-supremacist groups have claimed
responsibility. However, this and other stations were alerted to the
murder by an anonymous source."
"If you would like more information on..."

I'll save you the trouble. The matrix follow-up site has diddle in terms
of additional info.
Wonder if this has any connection to the psycho that was crucifying people
all over Boston? Weird that it also has a reference to the Fruit-loops,
er I mean, Children of Thunda. Could be a copycat with an identity
crisis. Still, a wicked way to go.
BTW, anybody have unadulterated footage of the inside of the house? I
know somebody that would pay good money for it. Not me, of course.]<<<<<
