Since joining CrimeSpace a couple of weeks ago, I've received several off list inquiries from members asking what types of crimes happen in small towns. Well, we get all kinds of crime, but we are usually on the lower end of the scale for the really serious stuff like murders, and bank robberies, of which we've had exactly one of each in the six years I've been here. But here's one from '07 that's one of my all time fav's, and even made CNN, and Tokyo Network TV news!
