Mission’s Most Irresponsible Father: Follow-Up
My worst fears and suspicions have been confirmed. I made this post yesterday about the 5-month-old girl plucked from her father’s car while he went to buy cigarettes after a failed search for crack, which I initially incorrectly noted was a mission for weed.
The child’s body was found in McLaren Park. According to various news sources, particularly this article from the Chronicle, the father is a suspect.
You’re not the only one who thought it was weed. Apparently, the guy wanted to be completely honest and forthcoming with police and that’s why he told them what he was really doing in the Mission.
It was later that, apparently, it became known he was really there to buy crack. I don’t know if he fessed up, or his now pissed wife(?) told police why he went there, or what. I have a feeling this story is gonna change a whole lot before it’s over.
