Thoughts? Thanks to henkster for alerting us to the FBI addition today. To be honest, I've known about Officer Ellis's case for a while and for some reason thought we already had it on our site. To my surprise I've looked all over and apparently we didn't but we do know. I hope the extra publicity from police weeks helps in catching Officer Ellis's killer.
