  1. Living large, baller status….he should’ve had a dog and a security alarm.

  2. So- we’re now conflating “persons of interest” with those who have been arrested?

  3. Detroit… not surprising

  4. Im from that area, no one ever bother the people that live in that area, especially the mansions. When i saw the story, i knew it had to be someone he knew or encountered and they may have followed him home. But this is so very sad😢my heart and prayers go out to the family.

  5. He was cute!!! And had a nice beautiful home. Poor dude

  6. Safety over stupidity. And paranoia of eachother. No guns for every citizen solves a lot of this instantly. But. Greed says otherwise. Greed is the only reason for wanting to even have one. Cause you think your life and things are more important then everyone else. Your worlds all that matters right? These types of minds need to be dunked in the mud where they belong.

  7. God bless his soul. RIP 😢

  8. Taking out the smart ones. Just like the genocide in Cambodia.

  9. His first mistake was moving and living in Detroit. Play with snakes long enough you'll eventually get bit

  10. A demonic, negative person got a hold of that doctor. Bless him.😔

  11. Nothing new in the USA🥱

    Just another day of shootings in "the most gun obsessed country in the WORLD!"

    What a backwards country with a DISGUSTING 2nd amendment.

    EVOLVE your gun laws; it's 2023, NOT 1823

  12. Nice. Idiots killing smart people. Just what this world needs……..

  13. That house just screams kindness and generosity…… and maybe a few kickbacks from big pharma corporations and sprinkling of insurance and medicare abuse

  14. People still have the notion that is someone is murdered it in some way is a reflection of if they were a good or bad person.. he didnt deserve this he was a kind person… but murder is indescrinimate, never about fairness, and is completely arbitrary for many victims! So sad for his friends, collegues and loved ones❤

  15. His murder is suspicious usually kind n generous people aren't executed.. so I'll wait for more details 🤨

  16. Heartbreaking. 💔 💔 💔 💔 💔 💔 💔
    may he rest in Heaven.
    and put that other piece of crap behind bar

  17. Kind and generous people are not violently shot in the head multiply times.

  18. If that was his wife she guilty

  19. Wow rich people need more cameras and bodyguards

  20. My condolences 💐 may god comfort the families in Jesus Christ name amen 🙏🏽

  21. What were the things that they saw?!?!?!?

  22. 😊😊😊.uiiiuouip.set.hou.ni.eef.nttxt

  23. And how DID the murders victim, his grieving family members, his grief-stricken friends and relatives, and the concerned community members as a whole, all vote?
    Are you all STILL enjoying what you all wanted and voted for?
    Are you all STILL having fun?
    Enjoy the fruits of your own voting record. I know I am!!!

  24. Wouldn't be surprised if his wife wanted his life insurance money and assets so she hired a hitman to snuff him out.

  25. We can’t afford to lose good people like this man😢

  26. Called it. I predicted the neurosurgeon got shot in the head 😅. Such a Shame though. That’s a tuff job. I only thought it cause hes a "neurosurgeon" aka the brain so i thought brain shot.

  27. Was it a burglar?

  28. So sad,😢May his soul rest in Peace

  29. Republicans fault ban guns now gop sucks

  30. I'm saddened by this 😢

  31. What a terrible thing to do to a productive member of society.

  32. We got a big problem with narcissism in America
    Some men buy a gun.. some men buy a dress
