"no apparent motive"??? Are you all a bunch of PC lemmings? Wheather or not Mr. Dorsey was a gang member or not, Helen Kheler could see that the reason he was shot in that geographic location was GANG AFFILIATED! They simply hit him up, he stated, I don't bang, and they shot him. Happens almost every day, and has a long time. So stop cutting a jigg around the elephant in the room.
If the people of the area start talking to the police,they will catch the gangsters that killed him.

No doubt Jimmy that's true, but its a shame that a guy can't walk to a store in a neighborhood that he lives in paying god knows what amount of rediculous rent to get a soda and not make it home. If he would have known that three other people were killed in a two mile radius the day before he wouldn't have walked no where in that neighborhood. But that info wasn't out there and its still not. If three people in Beverly hills was killed in a weekend it would have been national news.

Its a shame the good have to leave us early. He will truly be missed. He was a great family guy. I can't wait for justice to be served. He was not a gang member. He just happen to be in a crime filled area. RIP
