Ogden Shootings Story Update: The Latest From the Northern Utah Print Media

We'll be sure to provide updates throughout the day, in the event that there's more breaking news

Here's the latest from the Standard-Examiner, which continues to do a "bang-up" job reporting on the still-developing 1/4/12 Ogden Shootings story:
The Standard also provides a video of yesterday's Dee Smith press conference, which we embed below for your viewing convenience:


And here's a new story from the Salt Lake Tribune:
With reference to yesterday's Standard-Examiner story, the above-linked Christopher Smart story includes this interesting paragraph and quote:

Earlier Monday, Brad Beyersdorf, public information officer for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, confirmed that bomb technicians detonated "explosive materials" or components found inside Stewart’s house Saturday. Beyersdorf did not specify what was found but said that "to characterize it as a bomb or device is not accurate at this time."
It would thus appear that the Standard's Mr. Gurrister needs to be a mite more careful with his "anonymous" sources, don'tcha think?

In connection with tomorrow's funeral/memorial service, we received an email from one of our sharp-eyed and alert readers, who refers to two internal WSU memos helpfully suggesting that WSU students and Harrison Boulevard commuters would be wise to plan in advance tomorrow, and consider alternate routes and campus parking arrangements:
That's it for now O Gentle Ones. We'll be sure to provide updates throughout the day, in the event that there's more breaking news in re this story.

In the meantime, don't be shy about throwing in your own 2¢.

Update 1/10/12 10:02 a.m.: As an added bonus this morning, here's a "chewy" blog article from Libertarian Salt Lake lawyer Andrew McCullough, who's "gearing up to run for Utah Attorney General":
Mr. McCullough pretty much "nails it," wethinks.

Just watched the Dee Smith press conference video, which cracked me up, for the most part.

It's hilarious how Smith tiptoes around talking about the details of the investigation (Rules of Professional Professional Responsibility, you know)... and then freely launches into a completely irresponsible and (Rules of Professional Repsponsibility Be Damned)  professionally unethical third degree hearsay discussion  of the "bomb" and "terrorist photos".

Don't be snookered, Ogden City citizens.

Anyone with the slightest sense of olfactory sensations can easily detect (with apologies to the Bard of Avon) that "something is rotten in the State of Ogden."
