One thought on “SAPD seeks help in identifying suspect who shot and killed 15-year-old Edgar Campos”
  1. MISSING PERSON(S) ALERT:

    MikeTardif (aka Skallywag, Junior, SeamusMcDuff), Boys of Men and Color, Art Lomeli, Valerie Amezcua, Julio Perez and the rest of the “FTP” crowd.

    These assholes like to make noise over a council meeting cancellation, but repeatedly criminal gang members are murdering young men and women in Santa Ana and nobody posts at the Voice Of OC about that. CURIOUS NO?

    Where is Adam Elmerhek and his new bride on this? What about DrunkAndy and his girlfriend Alicia Rojas and the rest of these ignorant A-HOLES.

    When people get serious about the issues facing Santa Ana and not the latest Craft Beer joint or “pop up kitchen”. Things will change. In the mean time look for more of the same separation these folks decry.

    Hey, you can get a great “Wurst” though, right Shasta……..What a bunch of assholes.
