Crime in Helena

Most regular readers of DirtyRedCommie should know that my wife and I have moved to Helena, MT. I plan to write more about the move and new job soon, but a rather disturbing event occurred the other night. Friday night, a bit before we were preparing to go to bed, Jess and I noticed flashing lights outside our window. We saw this scene:

 

Apparently a law clerk was stabbed on his way home a mere 100 feet or so from where I was sitting. You can read more about it in the Helena Independent Record or Billings Gazette .

I didn't hear or see anything.  I feel a little guilty that I was so absorbed in a video game at the time.  My heart goes out to the victim's family.   

There has been talk around

There has been talk around the law school about starting a scholarship in his name. He was a great student and a very nice man.
