Texsox Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 If only there were more warnings about meeting in person someone you met on the internet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosMediasBlancas Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 It doesn't sound probable, but it is possible that the guy who ran the ad wasn't involved in the murder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
