Deandre Washington Leroy Craig, A Resident Of North Minneapolis, Facing Charges Of Second Degree Murder Or Possibly Attempted Murder...

Deandre Washington Leroy Craig, who reportedly resides at 2122 Dupont Ave. N., has been sitting in jail since September 11. So how did this blogger (and all the other media) miss his million dollars bail and charges of second degree murder? 

Or *is* he charged with second degree murder? Mugshots online dot com says he is, click here, but this blogger knows there's a quirk in the online jail roster and sometimes attempted murder appears on the roster as murder. 

So I'm hedging my bets in my text and headline. 

All the same, here is the jail roster copied and pasted...

Searching to see if other media are reporting on Craig's charges turns up nothing except Mugshots Dot Com. It's pretty incredible that Murder Most Foul appears on the jail roster and yet nobody except this blogger is reporting it almost three months later. 

Sure, I beat mainstream media all the time on fresh jail roster items, but THREE MONTHS LATER?

Hard to explain. I will try to get the criminal complaint and clear this up. In the meantime, if any readers have additional facts this would be a great time to submit those in comments.
