  1. I’m thinking FRAMED.

    After all,we can’t allow ordinary ‘heroes’ to be running around doing the job of the local police depts./FBI/CIA/DHS/TSA, and all the other alphabet agencies, can we?

    1. I’m thinking FRAMED as well. He’s a surfer here in CA. Why would he go to New Jersey or Philadelphia? Did he hitch a ride with someone who drugged him and held him captive?? This story doesn’t add up.
