A senseless event. The investigation continues. These profanations are being uttered together everywhere tonight. Another press conference will be called when there is new information, we are assured, by a chief of police. The bland, officialese prevents silence, just as police prevent crime. The arrest creates the crime but this represents its limit. Without this uniform presence, an absence may become real, and, worst of all, be unqualified. The superintendent pronounces his heartbreak, and follows this with announcements that need to be made. We are informed by yet another speaker again that this event is tragic.
