His sister and his neice have been murdered.
Man Linked To 5 Deaths In Texas, 1 In Pa.

The "headline" is a little misleading.

8. It should be "victims." His sister and his niece were both murdered
in Texas by a man from Long Island.

14. Looking at this news article, I see that the caption should read,
'Brother and Uncle of VictimS'

http://www.kxan.com/Global/story.asp?S=6984983&nav=menu73_5_8

<snip>

Investigators said Devoe's crime spree began in Marble Falls, where he is accused of shooting a bartender who got in his way, and the bodies of four victims were found in a home in Jonestown on Sunday.

Paula Griffith lived at the house where she was found fatally shot with her 15-year-old daughter, Hailey; Griffith's boyfriend, Jay Feltner; and Hailey's 17-year-old friend Danielle Hensley.

<snip>

Paula's brother, who lives in Abilene, said he hopes to see Devoe brought to justice in Texas.

"It's senseless to lose your sister, more senseless to lose your niece," said Eric Griffith, Paula's brother.

Corporate media copywriters...it's hard work!

15. It's a riddle!
Not really. But, that screen shot caption reminds me of those convoluted riddles about "Who am I?"


Anyway, here's the answer to the Eric Griffith one.
(CNN should have captioned that as "victims", not just "victim")

16. Not as bad as when CNN announced that "Saddam Hussein has fired his minster of defense and replaced
him with his brother."
