Ruffalo Loses a Game of Russian Roulette

For a while we couldn't get the blog at school and I couldn't get it at home, either. So I'm making up for lost time!

In sad news, movie star Mark Ruffalo's brother, Scott, recently died of what now appears to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. What started out as a murder tragedy now seems to be more of a case of Russian Roulette gone wrong.

The suspect Shaha Mishaal Adham was cleared after being held without bail since Monday, and instead of being considered to be his murderer, it now seems all the more likely that Adham was a witness to the horrific incident.

While it's understandable why the police would suspect Ruffalo's friend Adham of the murder, seeing as she fled the scene and evaded capture, resulting in, as attorney Ronald Richards called it; "A series of wrong decisions starting with her not staying at the scene of the shooting caused an incredible chain reaction of stupidity and bad luck."

Ruffalo was on life support for a week before the decision was made to pull the plug, and this tragedy has affected Scott's friends and family very much. One could argue that the police simply pursued a possibility with Adham and another suspect Scofield, but Richards said on the record that the police were, "more than impartial with the facts."

The Ruffalo family thanks those who have supported them in this difficult time and announced the plan to create a fund in his honor.

One can only hope that the police and investigators learn from this incident, as well as other not quite to high profile cases, not to jump to conclusions and to assess the facts and clues before coming to a decision.
