Every other account quotes Reeves’ attorney Escobar as stating the probable cause document was “weak”.
This the opposite of what HL says and I’m doubtful there are two different attorneys using the same phraseology, but in an opposite manner.
I also have not seen any other news article stating that witness say the shooter threw the popcorn, not one. They all say Oulsen threw his popcorn or that they don’t know who threw it.
And why does HL keep using Reeves’ first name Curtis as if it was his surname and then switch back to the surname?
Also of note, it is not original reporting and is bylined to HL Intern. It is not a well written account.
I am more likely to believe the local reporting with reporters that actually attended the arraignment and uses sourced quotes rather than an intern at a gossip blog offering a rehash of what they’ve read or think they’ve read.
When the initial story broke one witness Cummings said that “popcorn was thrown” — with no identification of who threw it or whether it came from one or both.
Then later we are told that Oulson threw “a bag of popcorn” and what is continually described is that it was a BAG of popcorn — not popcorn — but a BAG of popcorn.
So if Oulson threw the BAG of popcorn — then who threw the popcorn???
And remember that Oulson’s attorney said that Reeves started the row both times — when he first got there and when he returned from tattling.
AND Reeves attorney and Reeves have lied outright about the dark colored UFO that they claimed that Oulson threw. Police searched for the UFO and found nothing and said they found nothing thus painting Reeves and his attorney as prefabricators. Their credibility is in the toilet.
Where do you suspect that Tony Norman got this information:
"It isn't clear who threw the first kernel. Witnesses insisted it was Mr. Reeves who in turn blamed Mr. Oulson."
