Really? What's he doing out of the nursing home in Bloomington? He's
got alzheimer's and was just responsible for causing a man's death in
the nursing home a month ago. The coroner (I'm assuming Hennepin County
although the article doesn't state it that way) today ruled the death a
homicide. :-( Sad all around.
