Being the amazing, true-to-life adventures and (very likely) misadventures of a writer who seeks to take his education, activism and seemingly boundless energy to North Minneapolis, (NoMi) to help with a process of turning a rapidly revitalizing neighborhood into something approaching Urban Utopia. I am here to be near my child. From 02/08 to 06/15 this blog pushed free speech to the envelope, so others could take heart and speak unafraid. Email me at hoffjohnw@gmail.com

Please help us find the killer of Haywood. This happened to my cousin in the daytime. There was hundreds of people around. Someone had to have seen something. Let's get these people off the streets. We don't need killers free. They need to be in jail where they belong. Let's clean up our hood.
Thank you for changing the other blogs. We don't need to make this a race issue. Its a WHO KILLED HAYWOOD ISSUE. WE NEED TO GET THESE KILLERS OFF THE STREETS BEFORE THEY KILL SOMEONE ELSE. SCAREY TO KNOW THEY ARE NOT IN JAIL.
Since the article with the comment thread (87 at last count, which I think is around twice the previous record on this blog) is no longer at the blogosphere's "top of the fold," I thought I would drop this comment into this thread instead.
John, you want info. Fine and dandy. That's your thing and you are a media source in north Minneapolis.
But let's all remember that this is ALLEGEDLY a dispute with an ex-boyfriend, and ALLEGEDLY involves a green truck or SUV ("Tahoe-like vehicle").
What I DO NOT WANT to see is information that may prove false being spread on this blog and then have someone else go all vigilante based off of that information.
So my plea to anyone out there is this: Any pertinent info that you get to John, get it to the cops too. Or if you just want to get it to the police, that's still great. And to John, please use discretion in publishing such information.

How about just dropping it all together...
Here's a link to a Metro Mag article featuring Johnny Northside and another awesome blogger Ed Kohler.
