Oh. ####.

The crimes in Ottawa and Montréal are linked.

*assorted low-level swearing ensues*

I don't know whether to be glad or not that I'm out of the TV news courtroom art game these days.

Not surprising... this might be morbid, but I hope they are all from the same body and we aren't dealing with multiple murders.

That would make things much more tolerable in many contexts.

Why swear? Surely it is better that there be one victim of one violent nutbar than that there be at least two victims of two different violent nutbars?

This is the kind of situation in which the only good news - the kind you don't swear in response to hearing - is the successful apprehension of whoever's responsible.

Otherwise, no matter what happens?

You swear.

That aside?

There are professional writers who could manage well enough in working up such a plotline. Some of them even live and work here.

In a sadly twisted way, this is reminding me how much I miss the bookstore Prime Crime.

It feels like crime drama tv.

Playing out in real time. Hell yeah. Can't imagine that this guy's going to slip the net unless he decides to end himself for whatever reason.

And meanwhile, there's Hitchcock scenarios playing themselves out small-scale along the Rideau Canal...

What is wrong with this week?

I have no clue right now.
