I know the Cardino Couple and they are good people and a good friend. When you catch the killer, please send him over here in the Philippines so that I can cut his balls and feed to the Philippne crocodiles. This killer must be put to the Electric chairs or better yet, "chop" every parts of his body and mix it with the linguine sauce and feed it to the shark. Justice must be done for the Cardino Family.. I pray for the family.

I feel its very scary and so sad that these ederly people work hard all their lives to be struck down by a cold blooded killer- who most likey was looking for drug money. None of us are safe. Its wrong and I feel that Rockford Police Dept should hire more officers. This hug a thug is a poor excuse to keep the drug dealers and user on the streets. ADDRESS THE PROBLEM: STOP BABYING DRUG PUSHERS_ USERS & THUGS! PUT THEN WHERE THEY BELONG! 23 TEAM KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! Like most of these people they are cowards who like nothing more to complain about the news. They should look at themselves. Its NOT 23 Teams to go after the Killer- Its the Rockford Police Dept.
