    James was murdered, period.
    He is not on life support, be passed away, today.

    James Sheron was the victim in this incident. Hans Jacob Gruber is from a different incident. You should probably fix that….

    If the victim is houseless, Black, or Indigenous, probably not a priority for APD.
