The Ocoee St shooting discussion reminded me of a dormant thought: whenever possible, could the PIO's include suspects'/victims' street names when releasing crime info?
ex. -- Bill Smith, aka Da Main Man, or Shaquitania Jones, aka Nappy Headed Ho -- things like that, if for nothing else, the forum would get a kick out of it ....

There ain't enough ink, video tape or bandwidth to broadcast all their "Known" street names.
Plus, if you put out one street name as bein' kilt, 6 other families would have started a wake (Which would lead to drinkin' and yet another shootin' or stabbin') for nothin'.
Easier just to give out the Christian names.
It may be funny for the forum, but not funny for the cops that would have to clean up the mess.
But that is just me.

I look pretty young, but I'm just back-dated.

Why does the name "Tater Salad" keep popping into my head?

Oh, I don't know, I can see some use for that...
What was that old racist joke I heard in elementary school about how to take census in Harlem?

Take a census in Harlem? If it was left out someone done took it.
