Murder in the neighborhood

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. ...

But here goes again: Her report.

STABBING

THE PERSON WHO PUT THIS BLOG IS IGNORANT. THE BOY THAT DIED WAS MY MAN. HE DID NOT WALK 3 BLOCKS ANYWHERE. HE WAS STABBED AND WAS KILLED RIGHT IN THE PARKING LOT. THERE WAS NO BLOOD TO BE FOLLOWED OR ANYTHING. AND THE PERSON ASSUMES THAT RAFAEL WAS GANG RELATED. HE WAS SIMPLY WALKING HOME FROM SOME FRIENDS HOME WHEN THE MEN JUMPED HIM. WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE GANG RELATED. IT COULD BE MISTAKEN IDETITY. BUT IF UR GONNA POST SOMETHING POST FACTS NOT THINGS YOU CANT BACK UP BECAUSE RAFAEL DIDNT WANK ANYWHERE. HE WAS HIT 3 TIMES IN THE HEAD WITH A BAT BEFORE BEING STABBED. HE WAS KNOCKED OUT AND I HAVE NEVER SEEN AN UNCONCIOUS MAN WALK BEFORE. RIP JOSE RAFAEL SANDOVAL HERCULES. WE MISS U
