Does anyone else feel deeply disturbed by the way the authorities handled David Martin Long in the days surrounding the murders in Lancaster? I can't stop thinking about how he was arrested for drunk driving on the same night and how alarming his behavior must have been. Driving Donna's stolen car, raving about God and Jesus, and injuring himself on a police vehicle should have raised more red flags. Yet, he was released without posting bond. ? It’s hard not to think about how different things might have been if the authorities had recognized the seriousness of his actions sooner. This isn't to blame them for what happened, but it's just devastating to imagine that a lapse in the system might have cost lives. Dalpha, Donna, and Laura deserved more. And honestly, as a community, we need to keep these things in mind so we can advocate for more scrutinous handling of suspects in custody. It’s so essential in protecting others from becoming victims. Thoughts?
