Tonight we have a meeting with the Prosecutor and the Department of Homeland Security. All of the people living or who lived in houses that were damaged are supposed to go. We are asked to bring our insurance forms and other info to the meeting. The main topic will be what was just announced, however. The Prosecutor's office is asking for life without parole for the three accused. Interesting. I am not a big proponent of the death penalty, and am relieved that the Prosecutor has chosen this route. Looks like, judging from the online comments, many are not happy. Other than my moral belief, I would like them to spend a really long time thinking about what they did if they are convicted. Not much more to say than that because there is no sentence or ruling that will bring the Longworths back or any of the material, physical, or emotional losses that have come from this ordeal. Spending the rest of their lives in prison thinking about the choices they made sounds pretty good to me.
No changes in the "house hunt/decision". Still weighing options and waiting for final settlement from insurance to know what kind of down payment we can make and what our 'price point' is.
I will post again after tonight's meeting after I have had a chance to process it. If anyone reading this (if anyone is at all) has a specific question about what's up that I have not addressed, please email me: pcrosley at roncalli dot org or leave a comment. I will try to answer any question you may have.
Hi Mr. Crosley...I just wanted to let you know that people are still reading! I'm an RHS alumni (c/o 2000) and I live in Southport. I'm always read your updates and I'm interested in seeing how this all resolves, both in terms of your family and the case as a whole.

Hey Pat, Still reading too, I find it interesting to hear it from your prospective. My BIL is the cheif of Homeland security so it is interesting to hear those two sides of this ordeal. We continue pray for you and all the families.
