 On April 25, Gregory Despres arrived at the U.S.-Canadian border crossing at Calais, Maine, carrying a homemade sword, a hatchet, a knife, brass knuckles and a chain saw stained with what appeared to be blood. U.S. customs agents confiscated the weapons and fingerprinted Despres. Then they let him into the United States. |

The following day, a gruesome scene was discovered in Despres' hometown of Minto, New Brunswick: The decapitated body of a 74-year-old country musician named Frederick Fulton was found on Fulton's kitchen floor. His head was in a pillowcase under a kitchen table. His common-law wife was discovered stabbed to death in a bedroom.
Despres, 22, immediately became a suspect because of a history of violence between him and his neighbors, and he was arrested April 27 after police in Massachusetts saw him wandering down a highway in a sweat shirt with red and brown stains. He is now in jail in Massachusetts on murder charges, awaiting an extradition hearing next month.
At a time when the United States is tightening its borders, how could a man toting what appeared to be a bloody chain saw be allowed into the country? |

Border Patrol needs CSI
Posted by wizeGurl on 2005-06-10 11:40:20 | Wait, the US Border Patrol couldn't tell if it was blood on the chain saw...or maybe "rust, or red paint"...because they don't have a crime lab?
If they had been watching CSI, they'd know that all they need is some of that spray-on blood reagent...dab a Q-Tip into the "blood", spritz it, and if it's blood it immediately turns hot pink. It doesn't take a trained criminologist to spray a Q-Tip, and a positive result would be a good excuse for sending a sample to a real lab and holding the guy for a day or so.
Or we could just let the guys with the bloody chainsaws and bloodstained shirts come on in. |
