but.. an interesting point..
i was taping the KSTP (ABC affiliate) news this morning and they showed on screen that the visitation was at Boniface Catholic Church.. looked funny so i went back and looked again..
why no "St or Saint" Boniface?
it was re-run on ABC NATIONAL nooz the next half hour..

I grew up in this area - our high school played sports against Cold Spring and I have plenty of friends in the area. There is a strong German Catholic, pro-life presence. This is such a sad story.
Pretty weird that KSTP would omit the St. or Saint. Hope they get some good grief for it.

Tying a shotgun to a murder used to be a little tough, especially if there are no hulls laying around. It will be interesting to see if they can do it. Killing a cop is the ultimate expression of anarchy. Hope they nail the shooter, and tremendous sympathy for the family.

Sorry for the officer and family, but wndering about the evidentiary value of the shotgun.
Shotgun projectiles cannot be matched to the gun. Perhaps they are hoping to find fingerprints on it, but it still cannot be proven to be the particular gun used by balistics testing. Possible to match a fired shell to the gun, so perhaps they have a shell at the scene and hope for breech face match AND fingerprints which would make the evidentiary link needed.
Best of luck, people like that need to be put away permanently.

The University of Minnesota sold nearly $1 million in beer and wine at TCF Bank Stadium last year — and lost money. (Snip)How can anyone lose money selling beer at $7.25 a cup? (snip) The list of startup expenses that cut into the school’s beer profits ranged from extra security to $12,000 in plants to screen the A gate beer kiosk from the view of visitors to the Tribal Nations Plaza. The university brought in a dozen extra campus police officers, 10 more ushers and two security supervisors to keep tabs on the football crowds once the alcohol started flowing. The extra manpower cost almost $50,000, but police incidents actually went down at the stadium, compared to the previous dry season.

(Snip) The 16-year-old sophomore at Champlin Park High School now prefers to be called Lane, not Brittany, but she says the biggest change this school year has been in how she and other students in the district´s gay and lesbian community are treated.

A 34-year-old man is in jail Tuesday, accused of randomly shooting and killing a 9-year-old boy and wounding two other people as they rode in passing vehicles in Oakdale. Nhan L. Tran, whose home is a few blocks from the shooting scenes, began firing a handgun about 6:10 p.m. Monday while standing in the street near Hadley Avenue N. and 7th Street N., police said.
Cheryl Russell, who lives across the street from the suspect's home, said Tuesday that she looked out a window from her home and saw the man shooting at vehicles at two locations. Russell described the shooter as "very nonchalant, just very calm."

Former Rep. Anthony Weiner, whose career in public life came to an abrupt end when he sent lewd pictures to a college student on Twitter, jumped back into politics on Wednesday by announcing a bid for mayor of New York City. “Look, I’ve made some big mistakes and I know I’ve let a lot of people down,” the Democrat said in a 2-minute video announcing his bid. “But I’ve also learned some tough lessons. I’m running for mayor because I’ve been fighting for the middle class and those struggling to make it for my entire life.

The public got its first look Thursday at Lois Lerner, who has gone from faceless IRS bureaucrat to the face that launched what feels like 1,000 congressional hearings and conspiracy theories. But it was only a brief sighting since she didn´t stay long at a House hearing to further probe her role in how some IRS workers came to target conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status. (Snip)She did make a short statement to declare her innocence, however. Lerner´s motivation was more transparent than much of what the IRS has done in connection with this controversy. She was determined to

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

On “Fox News Sunday” last weekend, White House aide Dan Pfeiffer was asked about President Barack Obama’s whereabouts the night of the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi. This was the night when we lost our first ambassador in 30 years, and when three other Americans were killed in an attack that lasted all night long at multiple locations within the eastern Libyan city. Since the president is commander in chief, one would think where he was and what he did during such an event would be of obvious public concern.
