What with all the hubub over Obama's racist buddy, "Skippy" Gates, it was interesting to find an article that demonstrated some striking similarities between "Skippy's" case and another.
Like the Gates incident, police were called to the scene due to nearby witnesses noticing behavior they deemed suspicious. In this case, a young man was walking naked, dazed and bleeding in front of a house. Upon arriving at the scene, the police tried to talk to the young man, but discovered that he could not speak English. So they inquired at the house. The resident of the house explained that the young man was his homosexual lover and all was well.
The man who spoke English was indeed the resident of the house. He said everything was all right. A good police officer understands that lovers can spat and things can happen in non-traditional family units that can seem strange to the more uptight members of the community. So no warrant and no search. No arrest for breaking and entering. No arrest for public nudity. No arrest for disorderly conduct. No arrest at all. The police let the two "lovers" be reunited.
Unfortunately, the resident they talked to was Jeffrey Dahmer, who would later complete the killing of the young man.
