Just thought I'd post an update of this tragedy in a new post for those who would like some more info.

The following is from http://www.jsonline.com/news/state/nov04/278124.asp

On Nov. 23, 2001, Jim Southworth was shot to death as he hunted on family land 10 miles east of Neillsville in one of the only other homicides ever to be linked to Wisconsin's deer hunting season.

Southworth was shot twice in the back and both bullets exited his chest, an autopsy found.

Witnesses reported a pickup truck with three men inside on a road near where Southworth's body was found, about 80 miles south of Sunday's shooting.

The three men were described as Asian from 5-foot-4-inches to 6-feet. They were driving a silver or gray Nissan or Chevrolet pickup truck, possibly a late 1980s model with a light-colored fiberglass topper.

Chai Soua Vang, 36, of St. Paul, Minn., who is suspected of shooting eight hunters Sunday, is 5-foot-4-inches, according to a court document. Vang has owned a 1987 Nissan pickup, according to an online search service. According to court records, Vang allegedly shot several of Sunday's victims in the back.

O.K., gibu and Skydivenekd have convinced me that yes, we can perhaps discuss such things rationally. Very good arguments guys, clearly the best responses. With that being said.....

I had no idea that this was the case. I hadn't heard anything else in the news as of late, so I trust that the link has yet to be discounted?? Where there's smoke.....
