I was there..

I happened to be up there during the killings. I had already graduated the year before, but I went to help out with Rush.

I was staying at another KD's apt. One of the roomie's mothers called up around 10-11 pm, because it was on the news in Orlando or Tampa (can't remember where she was from). We turned on the 11 o'clock local news (TV20 - for you Gainesville ppl)) AND THERE WAS NOTHING ABOUT THE MURDER! It was realllllllly freaky.

Then, in the morning, it was all over the news.

The murders happened over a period of 2-3 days, they all weren't done in one night. It was like a Monday through Wednesday or Sunday through Tuesday. I remember the morning I left Gainesville, before I even saw the newspapers, that there was another murder (turns out there were 2 bodies discovered - the guy & the girl).

These were happening in apartment complexes that many of us have visited or lived in. Friends were still living there!

It really was a very upsetting time. Actually, no words could describe it. It's just a very very sad time.
