UPDATE: Anti-Abortion Activist Gunned Down Outside Michigan High School Roadside Memorial

On a day when all seems to normal, after one of the bloodiest days for the small city of owosso in at least nine years since its last notable murder. a few dozen flowers lay on a Roadside Memorial where Anti-Abortion Activist 63-year-old James L. Pouillon was killed in cold blood by someone who thought to themselves that

he didn't think kids should have to look at dead babies on their way to school.

Harlan J. Drake locked and loaded with .45-caliber revolver, a .22-caliber semiautomatic pistol and a .22-caliber revolver. unloaded on James L. Pouillon hitting him several times knocking him from his protesters perch. he fell to the ground dying for his cause in front of the same kids Drake said he was trying to protect from the images being sent to them from across the street.

i dont think Drake had the time to think what the images now etched in some school kids minds of a man killed in front of them in cold blood might do either....




as Drake turns from the school he headed for his next victim, with a much lower profile in this whole story Mike Fuoss, 61 Owner of the local gravel pit

Rumor has it that Fuoss fired a family member that could have triggered the killing spree to start

now we can only speculate on the third person on his hit list today. Owosso real estate agent James Howe.

Drake felt that Howe had wronged his mother on a business deal. but was arrested at his home before he could carry out his last murder. we can only speculate as to if he was going home for lunch or to grab more ammo to finish the job.

but for us in this small town, trying to pick up the pieces of one of the bloodiest days for our sleepy little town. it doesn't help us sleep any better at night knowing that even us as tight knitted as we are NO ONE is safe in times like these....
