Fabulously Out There read about Saturday's murder on Border Street in East Boston with a sinking feeling, because it's right in her neighborhood. She reports she was able to track the dead guy's blood for three blocks this morning (with photos to prove it):

... ....The kid walked 3 blocks....and no one saw him? It's hard to believe in my neighborhood. Really hard to believe.

I can only assume it's gang related. Might not be, I don't know shit about gangs, but I know we have some in Eastie and they are mostly bad news, but they also keep their fighting between each other. I have never felt unsafe in my neighborhood, except for a few time...and that's to be expected in a city.

I am still not scared. I just feel bad about this 19 year old dying. I feel bad that there are young men and women out there in gangs who will snuff someone's life out over something that, in my world, is completely meaningless. ...
