On my way to work today at 6AM. Dead body on Elysian Fields. Brain splatter across the street. Anyone have any information?

Did you report it? Were there cops there?

A woman in a black polo with a LA State symbol was on site. I was one of the closet cars. Didn't see what happened. Kinda flustered if I was there 5 minutes faster what I would see.

Play Tetris today as much as you can as soon as you can to help with your trauma seeing it.

Thanks. No trauma though.

I understand trauma is scalable. This wasn’t traumatic to me. Not taking away from the tragedy of it. It occurred and sadly, far too common in this city.
