Please everyone join me in prayer that this case will be resolved.

I don't think now is a time to spread accusations and innuendos about Mr. Porters life.

Under any circumstances this man did not deserve to die.

Here Here Bob!

You are right on the money with that. Let's give the family a chance to mourn, the police a chance to investigate, the prosecutor the opportunity to charge, and the judge the time to sentence.

Who ever is responsible for this will be seeing one of Howard's co-workers for their sentencing recommendations, I hope the culprit is prepared for what that will be......
