    from my understanding and common sense.... someone that has his leg out of socket or out of place CAN NOT climb a tree and hang himself. but.... its like you all are saying.... it was just some poor mexican that wasnt worth the police's time.

    Exactly how does the inside of a mailbox catch fire? What is this mailbox made of? Wood? Now if a person started a fire inside of a mailbox there may be some details the Advocate could shead light on to let the community know there is a firebug out there.
