    One of the best police sketches I’ve seen to date. Excellent composition and shading. And the hoodie doubles as a nice framework that ties it all together.

    Thanks for the insightful comment. An article is not the same on WSR without a dose of your wisdom.

    consistently nasty aren’t you.

    To explain my very practical Comment to you, because I know that you can only see negatively:

    Women often do NOT report these crimes. It is helpful to other women to have these women step forward.

    Maybe the Holiday Spirit will cheer you.

    I also missed any real insight. Not every article needs a judgement call from some of the commenters.
