Rest in peace to the fallen, and my heart goes out to the friends and family of officer Kenneth Vann. This death is of particular concern because there is some speculation that this murder was committed by a sicario from one of the cartels…’in the US’. That is not confirmed yet, and we will see where it goes. It definitely has all of the elements of a cartel hit.
The other thing I wanted to bring up is that this bounty or reward has multiple funding sources. But if you go to Crime Stoppers, or call them at 244-STOP, that is how you can turn the guy in anonymously and collect the reward.(I noticed they are using Tip Submit, and that is a good move) Crime Stoppers is becoming quite the tool for crime fighting, and I certainly hope someone comes forward with some information about this. Let’s catch this bastard. –Matt
