Trucker Murdered in Detoit

Been to that Thyssen Krupp. Plenty of room to park on that property if they would let us. The street leading to it has lots of bombed out burned up buildings. Not a good area at all. Only ts close that I know of is the Flying J at exit 32 on I75. Its abt 25 or so miles to Thyssen Krupp from there.

 

That brings a tear to my eye. Good to see the brotherhood still exists.

 

I have never understood why a city, so dependant on trucking for it's auto industry, has so little parking.

 

ugggh I have to go to ann arbor and Livonia Monday night and that's still too close for me

 

Here is an article about his wife and family. It is really sad. https://duboiscountyherald.com/b/murder-victim-remembered-by-pregnant-wife

 

The only article I want to see is the one where the killer was found and he accidentally shot himself in the head 10 times.


The police are baffled......

 

A total rerun of the Jason situation. And you will notice that Food Lion, the consignee in Jason's situation not only didn't pay a dime towards anything, they still don't allow truck parking on their property.
The real problem is the trucking industry itself, who thinks someone else should pay for the real estate that the truck occupies. Truck stops have long been over run by the worst offenders, the mega truckload carriers who if they had to could not park 1/10th of their fleet on their own property. It's all about cost shifting.

 

####, that was tough to read

 

And were not allowed to defend our selves, that makes me a law breaker I guess, like my cap one I don't leave home without it.
