I just watched The View. Janet Napolitano was on and they were discussing illegal immigrants. Janet says when someone is arrested databases are checked to see if they are wanted for other crimes. This makes sense. Then she says now when someone is arrested the immigration database is checked to see if they are here illegally. This also makes sense. Then she says if they are here illegally they are deported “after” they have served their time. That makes me crazy!

The Digital Age and the Death of Books Continues
On Monday I wrote an article wondering if the digital age would be the death of books.
Just now I turned on CNN and they were talking to Stephen King. They asked him if he thought books would go all digital. It sounded like he thinks they will but he didn't want to say it out loud. He did say the futures going to be what the futures going to be. He also said that if you drop a book in the toilet you can fish it out, dry it off and read it. If you drop your Kindle in the toilet your done. I hadn't thought of that one.

The Atlanta Child Killer Still Claims He's Innocent Over Thirty Years Later
Ok, so I go to watch Larry King, and it's Soledad O'brien instead of Larry King, which is okay I like Soledad.
She's interviewing Wayne Williams. Do ya'll remember him? He was arrested many years ago for killing young black kids in Atlanta from 1979-1981. I was a young kid at the time myself, not a black child, but I lived in a nearby state and I remember being scared, because some crazy person was killing kids.
He was convicted only of two of the adult murders, but suspected of 23-30 others. Most of the kids killed were between the ages of 12-14, but was one as young as 9, and 4 were over 21. Wayne Williams was a 23 year old black man himself. I found that kind of odd.
He claimed then and evidently is still trying to say he is innocent.
Now:
Now, my question is and I really wish Soledad had asked him this. Why did the murders stop when he was arrested? I don't believe someone that sick could have just stopped killing because the police caught the wrong man What? Oh they arrested Wayne, so I'll stop killing now and they won't come looking for me.
I don't think so. I think they got the right man.

Now:
- He flunked 3 polygraphs, which granted aren't admissible, but still come on!
- Someone that saw him helped a sketch artist draw a picture that looked like him.
- They found dog hair on one of the boys that was consistent with Williams family dog.
- They found fibers consistent with his father's car which he drove on another body.
- They found rare carpet fibers consistent with the carpet in his house, he was still living with Mommy and Daddy evidently.
- When the police searched his home, they took a piece of a blanket that was under his bed, this matched fibers on another body. When the police went back for the blanket it was gone.
- His alibi for one of the murders was his mother, I don't know if he was alibied for any of the others.
