They stress the investigation is preliminary. The shooter was not in custody an hour and a half after he opened fire at the 36th Street and Fourth Avenue station in Sunset Park around 8:30 a.m. Tuesday. He's still out there, crazy. They better catch him or more nutcases will be emboldened to act and maybe get away with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted April 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 https://www.si.com/nfl/2022/04/13/dan-snyder-washington-commanders-financial-allegations Saw this flying around Twitter today. Quote The allegations, based on testimony from former Washington sales executive Jason Friedman, include: Withholding security deposits from fans and using the funds for other purposes. (About $5 million was withheld from roughly 2,000 accounts.) Misreporting Commanders tickets sales as revenue from a Notre Dame–Navy game at FedEx Field and a Kenny Chesney concert (thus excluding those earnings from the NFL’s revenue-sharing program). That Snyder was aware of the scheme. According to the letter, Friedman said “the team maintained ‘two sets of books’—one that was shared with the NFL but underreported certain ticket revenue, and another internal set of books that included the complete and accurate revenue and was ‘shown to Mr. Snyder.’” That such misrepresentations were known internally as “juice” and that members of senior leadership, including Snyder, encouraged the practice.
