Murders are cool in small towns though. We had a couple mysterious ones at home (in Oregon) and they always made us excited. But even still, even my small town in the middle of nowhere in Oregon, we had deaths... Driving accidents, drug overdoes, stuff like that...

And it's a bit ironic that the school I tutor at was formed as a partnership with NYU and is considered a college prep school. It's not in the best place but the kids there get so much support and attention that it's almost crazy. How kids could still go wrong when they have a school like that just paints a sad and beak picture...
