The Herald reports an Obama sticker on the car of Edward Corliss, charged with murdering a Jamaica Plain convenience-store clerk while on parole for murdering another clerk, helped police link him to the crime: Corliss's parole officer turned him in after noticing an Obama sticker on his car - just like the Obama sticker on the vehicle police had said they were looking for:

"He's a guy from Somerville, so I was surprised he was supporting Obama," [the parole officer] said.

Why would he be surprised that someone from Somerville was supporting Obama? Somerville voted for Obama over McCain by a 5 to 1 margin.

D.A.R.E?

Is this supposed to be the suspect? Where did you find the photo?
