They said publicly he isnt a suspect


I understand, but there is no way they can have their heads in the sand that much to not hear and read what is happening to him because they want to interview him.

They can't really press the issue. The interview being delayed doesn't really imply his involvement or lack thereof. It likely was scheduled by his attorney so he can try to figure out and plan for any questions BRPD may ask and then prep Collins accordingly. That's not something you want to rush. Nothing good can come from trying to get through that by the end of today, which is why it makes sense for his attorney to schedule the meeting for next week, giving Collins all weekend to prepare.
I disagree. If they had something that made them think he was actually involved with the murder they wouldnt give him a week on his own accord

the fact that BRPD is ok with the meeting not happening until Monday, it doesnt appear to me that Collins is being questioned regarding involvement in the murder. I mean, if they have any info at all that would make them think he did, I would hope they would press the issue a little more then this
You keep making comments that assume the BRPD can force Collins to meet with them. People are trying too hard to read into small pieces of information that could reasonably be interpreted in many different ways.

The whole situation sounds like some baby daddy drama possibly from the 10 yo child's father.

Im sure they do but I dont know what they can do at this point. Hell, they may have talked to some GMs personally and told them the deal. They arent going to make that public

If he has zero involvement and knows that this looming through draft weekend hinders his ability to earn a living, then yes a lot of good can come of it.

Thats assuming he has no involvement.

They could not be so public about the request for a meeting, therefore not totally railroading the kids ability to get drafted high.

I merely posted my opinion. At this point all we actually "know" is according to the police he isnt a suspect and they just want information.

I would generally agree with this, but you would think if this were the case that BRPD would at least be more assertive to not completely frick this kids chances of making money.


serious question...do you really think a murder investigation can be completed thoroughly in a week? Another serious question..what is more important to the police, completing a thorough investigation or getting it done as quickly as possible so one of their persons of interest can go to Chicago for thew NFL draft?

More leading me to believe BRPD isnt handling this appropriately.

Well that puts the question to rest on it is La'el delaying all of this. (assuming this is true)

I have a question... I have searched & searched but canNOT find any other names besides La'el's, for people the BRPD are wanting to speak with in connection with this investigation. Plenty of sources have cited BRPD want to speak with numerous people, well who are they? Why only "leak" one name, if you want to "speak" to "many"? Is it he was about to be drafted in the first round of the NFL draft & the others are just ordinary run of the mill joe blow citizens?
I'm not being a smart@ss!!! I'm honestly perplexed why we know his name & no other names. Do any of you know the CORRECT answer? Or is there a correct answer?

Smearing a young mans name might not be illegal, but it should be against ethics. I guess some people arent concerned about that.
