Would that fight/homicide on the 1800 block of Eastlake be between residents of the wet house there? The same place from which the poor soul whose beaten-to-death body was found in Broadway Hill Park came from?

I would say so. Staff, address and the description seems to fit. Still a worthy model to pursue even if someone doesn’t appreciate it.
