Paeroa homicide investigation update #6

Police are investigating vandalism to memorial items left outside the shop of Paeroa businessman Jordan Voudouris, to determine whether there may be any connection to his death.

Detective Senior Sergeant Michael Whitehead said Police had continued to make good progress on their inquiries over the weekend, and remained committed to finding the person responsible for Mr Voudouris' murder.

In a disturbing twist, Police were also investigating the vandalism of flowers, balloons, cards and other memorial items left outside Mr Voudouris' shop on Saturday night, after staff had earlier gathered and left items to mark his birthday.

"Police are keeping an open mind and are following a number of lines of inquiry in the search for Mr Voudouris' killer. We are following up as to who may have caused this damage and whether or not there may be any connection to his death."

Mr Whitehead said Police had not identified any confirmed motive for the homicide and all possible reasons were being considered – though it was "highly likely" that the information Police were looking for was held within the Paeroa community.

"This development is another part of the puzzle that may or may not be directly connected to Jordan's death. That's why it's still extremely important that anyone with information that could help us makes contact with the Police. Even the most seemingly insignificant piece of information may be the vital clue that leads us to the killer."

Mr Whitehead again expressed the Police's deepest sympathies to Mr Voudouris' family, as he was farewelled at his funeral today.

"Our thoughts are with Jordan's family at this very difficult and sad time. We remain steadfastly committed to catching whoever is responsible for his death."

The Police can be contacted at the Paeroa Police Station on 07 862 8744.

Alternatively information can be left anonymously with Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.

Alex and Mr. Baldwin will discuss Chuck's article DC Declares War On States and other important issues. chuckbaldwinlive.com www.infowars.com www.prisonplanet.tv [[[ DC Declares War On States ]]] Categories: Archived Columns, Columns by Chuck Baldwin Among the limited duties of the US Government enumerated in the federal Constitution is Article. IV. Section. 4. "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion." However, for several decades now, the federal government in Washington, DC, has shown great ambition and propensity to engage in activities to which it was never authorized, and to ignore those responsibilities with which it is specifically charged. The responsibility of the federal government to protect each State against invasion is a classic example of the latter. Can anyone deny that the states on the US southern border (California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas) are being invaded by an ongoing onslaught of illegal aliens (many of whom are violent and dangerous criminals)? Somewhere between 12 and 30 million illegals now reside in the US. The entire country is feeling the ...

EVERETT -- Police on Wednesday were canvassing the View Ridge-Madison neighborhood in Everett after a man was found dead there the night before. A neighbor spotted the man on the ground outside a vacant house at 22 Madison St. He called 911 about 6:20 p.m. The man had obvious signs of trauma to his torso, police said. He looked to be in his late 20s or early 30s. The Everett Major Crimes Unit is investigating the death as a homicide, Lt. Robert Goetz said. Detectives declined to say more about how they believe the man may have died. There are no identified suspects or motives. Detectives received a search warrant around 11:45 p.m. Tuesday and collected evidence at the scene. They returned Wednesday afternoon to look for clues in the daylight, Goetz said.

Manslaughter charges possible in boy's death

Published: Thursday, August 23, 2012, 5:55 p.m. MONROE -- Detectives believe a 7-year-old Monroe boy's parents should face second-degree manslaughter charges in connection with his January overdose death. Monroe police this week wrapped up their probe into the boy's Jan. 30 death and forwarded the case to prosecutors to decide if his parents should face criminal charges. Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Lisa Paul likely will begin reviewing the case in the coming days. She doesn't expect to make a charging decision in the near future, however. "It's quite an extensive investigation, and I want to review it thoroughly before I make any decision," she said. The boy, identified as "A.J." in court papers, ingested a lethal amount of salicylates, a chemical common in aspirin and other over-the-counter drugs. The medical examiner declined to conduct an autopsy on the boy, making it difficult to determine how the drug ended up in the boy's system. A
