Clover watches the news intently and she tunes in in time to see the 9 o'clock Denver News. There are a few stories that are covered aside from the weather which looks like it will be clear until the end of the week and then rain all day and night.Clover[sblock]After the weather the news stories come. One in particular catches your attention. It is about a murder that happened right near where Jacob Prestor's  house is. The news lady comes on the TV and you see a street corner behind her with big houses that look like Jacob Prestor's. The lady says "Soon after recovering from a recent structure fire, the neighborhood on Elm Street is now dealing with a recent murder. The victim was found lying on the sidewalk behind me with multiple slashes to the neck that authorities believe were either from a knife or some other bladed object. What is chilling is the fact that there have been a handful of  murders much like this one in the past week all over the Denver area where the victims were found in much the same fashion as this one with slashes to the neck. Authorities have started taking in suspects but so far have not been able to pin down the real culprit. There have been reports from witnesses near the scene of a few of the crimes who have said to have seen what appeared to be a female child but no one has been able to confirm this as there are no photographs or even an accurate description of what the girl looked like." The news then moves on to the next story which is about skiing conditions this season in the Rockies  and then goes to a commercial break with a Coors commercial...gotta love television.[/sblock]Fun Fact[sblock]Found this while looking for names for the news in Denver:The Rocky Mountain News (nicknamed the Rocky<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocky_Mountain_News#cite_note-close-2" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocky_Mountain_News#cite_note-close-2</a>) was a daily newspaper published in Denver, Colorado from 1859 until 2009.

The News' final issue appeared on Friday, February 27, 2009. The paper's demise left Denver a one-newspaper town with the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denver_Post" target="_blank">Denver Post</a> as the sole remaining large-circulation daily.[/sblock]</blockquote>
