For those of us that have "reached your monthly free article limit" for not paying the ransom-tribiute to the SD Union Tribune, here's
another link with the report of the unfortunate murder of Doug Bradley:

RIP
Dedina is the creator of Wild Coast. I did not know he was mayor as well.
I am very sorry for Mr. Bradley's death, and the fact that it was random, makes it even sadder.

Sad.
And Not good news for ixtapa.
Re being up at 4 am, why not be up at 4 am?
He was on vacation, so perhaps out late, or up early to go fishing or drive to mountains for a hike, or up early to exercise before the day got going.
Woke!

The paper reported this happened at 4AM. Who knows when it really happened.

I hope someone explains why he was out on the streets at 4:00 am. If there was a good reason, we should all know about it.
Goat, I doubt he was fishing on the sidewalks or driving in the mountains.
What I'm doing at work is so secret, even I don't know what I'm doing!
One should believe in God, because even Google doesn't know everything.

I can think of great reasons to be out at 4 am. Unless things have changed drastically. Discos (holding the best local and tourist talent) don´t
even get going until midnight and can go until dawn.
Horrid way to die. DEP |

Early Hours
Speaking as an established member of the Geezerhood who is "rarely" out and about once darkness falls, I find it ODD that others think it ODD that a
middle-aged person on vacation would be out at 4 a.m. and, without evidence, immediately suspect the worst.
But, that seems to be the trend on Social Media. Everything is taken to have some unexplained negative attached.

Well, at least one article, says the American victim, was a surfing aficionado and adventurous soul.
Perhaps, he was up early getting ready to surf, because the best waves usually come in the morning, or so I'm told.
Then again, The LA Times, article, says that investigators, have learned that he "could have some addictions to toxic substances."
It has also been reported that a gunmen chased the victim and shot him with a 9mm handgun during a robbery.
The victim's sister, calls the toxic substance allegations, inaccurate, and it was a botched robbery, "in which his cellphone and money — a few
hundred dollars in pesos — were taken."
Well, I'm not exactly sure what happened, but I would love to see the results of toxicology report, and believe most of these homicides also involve
the victims, contributing to their demise in many ways.

Based on the cops blaming the victim, I predict the crime will never be solved. When the cops immediately blame the victim, it is often because the
criminal is in cop’s family, or the criminal in some way owns or controls the cop.
Woke!

According to some of the newspaper articles, the police didn't learn of his death until four hours when they were called at 8 a.m in the morning, but
once they were called they quickly responded.
Lots of wrong information in the articles, and most of the information about the so-called botched robbery is coming from the victim's sister, who
insists this is only a botched robbery. If so, it's kinda of a dumb robbery for only a cell phone, and a few hundred pesos??
According to many sources including the sister, Bradley, was an ex-pat, who lived in 'Playas de Tijuana, in an ocean front condo. However, he worked
in Imperial beach, where he oversaw the budget and served as city treasurer.( that job alone might bring up red flags for some)
The sister said her older brother was "deep thinking" and incredibly intelligent." She also said, he was an avid surfer, as a preteen growing up in
Orange County, and his passion for the sport eventually led him to waves around the world, from Mexico and Central America to Thailand and Australia.
What jumps out to me, is Thailand is not really known as a surfing paradise, although it's known for a few other things.
