Here is a link (KFVS 12 News) to an update on the story of the death of Forums member Ed James.

Sad,sad,sad....

I'm still blown away by this.

 

[woodsroad]

Semms to be compelling evidence that the suspect is a flight risk. Glad it's not my $62,500.

I was just thinking of Ed the other day... He is missed

 

[jpmcwjr]

Missed indeed. I happened across a post he made, and felt sad. Then, reading the account, I got really pissed off. What a cunt that kid is.

 

[ashdigger]

I'll be happy to provide a stake, some accelerant and an introduced heat source....who has the rope?

 

[balkisobrains]

Someone might have posted that article about him getting bonded out when it happened, but I cannot find the post. I guess that the big question is whether or not he showed up to his hearing.

Every time I think of this I am angered. James was the kindest of souls. Nothing but a tragedy. I've got some barbed wire Ash. :wink:

 

[wyfbane]

He had a hearing August 24th though, right? It would be in the news if he jumped bail. I just hope justice is served on this. Ed really was the kindest guy.

 

[lohengrin]

I didn't know anything about this terrible happening.

I remember Ed posts showed he was a special person.

Please, can you display the link of the first discussion about his death here in the forum?

So sad.

About a month later his brother tragically passed as well

Oh, this just keeps getting worse, doesn't it?

 

[derfatdutchman]

Very sad. I was thinking of him the other day, a true gentleman.

 

[deathmetal]

Rest in peace, Ed. You tried to do good, and that's how we esteem your spirit.

 

[fnord]

Poor, white, buckra,' SW Missouri, meth-addled, trailer park trash.
Ed and his wife were giving their shit-heel grandson another chance to redeem himself and he said thank you by getting loaded and setting their home on fire.
Why was bail reduced? Did the judge decide Brett couldn't spell passport?
This board will never see a quieter, more gentle and welcoming soul than Ed James.
This whole mess couldn't get anymore revolting,
Fnord

Ed was a good person, I think. The horror story ended his life but doesn't summarize it in any way. It certainly is painful to read about.

Very sorry to hear this.
