Nope! It happened to TWO of my nephews (gang-related) only six months apart. They did not stop until they killed them, one was shot at least three times before until they finally killed him, stated, they weren't going to stop until they got him, over a three-year period timeframe, he served two years in prison and a few months after being released, they killed him.

Another larger one in Miracle Village (officially City of Refuge since 2014) is a community on Muck City Road, about three miles (4.8 km) east of Pahokee, Florida, that serves as a haven for registered sex offenders.

[@georgegravette1132]

I'm just speculating here, but I'd suspect he did eight years for a crime that would have warranted something much longer, and someone just collected the remainder of that debt. Either that, or he owed somebody something else when he went in.

That is one way to look at it. You are being presumptuous though. I mean no one forced the loved one to buy from him. It's easier to blame someone else for a loved one's problem so I get that.

If the victim had told someone that another person was there or on the way there, the police would have a name & reference point to start their investigation. Same if the victim was going to that person's house too. Then, hopefully, some justice can be brought to you after your passing. My suggestion doesn't stop one from being killed.
