Diamond Bar: August 2007 Archives

Sleepy Diamond Bar apparently has a lot of stuff going on behind closed doors.
The final chapter in the Gregory Eversole/Jason Burke murder/suicide involves a girl, a grow house, an early morning murder where the killer may have entered Eversole's apartment through a doggy door and a suicide in the parking lot of a Nevada casino.
Oh....and there was a note.
Complete story here for now.
I'll update link in the a.m.

A San Gabriel man, possibly implicated in a Diamond Bar shooting, was found dead in a Primm, Nevada casino parking lot.
Clark County Coroner's officials said the man, identified by posteres here as "j", was Jason Burke, of San Gabriel.
There's some interesting speculation about the case in the comment sections of earlier postings. here.

Here's the gist of what we'll be reporting tomorrow -- its a twist or wrinkle (whatever you want to call it)

The investigation into the shooting death of a Diamond Bar man led detectives Friday to “Sin City” where they tried to determine if a man who committed suicide there might be linked to the murder, officials said.
Gregory Edward Eversole, 29 was shot to death Wednesday morning inside his apartment in the 21700 Laurel Rim Drive in Diamond Bar, officials said.
The Las Vegas suicide victim, was only identified as a man in his 30s. The man’s identity was not released pending notification of next of kin.

Following the shooting death of Gregory Edward Eversole, 29, of Diamond Bar, detectives interrogated a woman, who was apparently his girlfriend, authorities said Thursday morning.
The girlfriend, who wasn't identified, is not a suspect in the case, the same detective said. She was released late Wednesday.
In any event, the case was being actively investigated Thursday. No gun was found at the scene of Eversole killing, which some say means the death wasn't a suicide.

Channel Seven reporter Leo Stallworth mistakenly thought our Dan Abendschein showed up in Diamond Bar as a spectator not a reporter and attempted an interview, Dan said.
Fortunately, Dan set the record straight and Stallworth moved on.
Good thing for us he did, apparently the Channel Seven guy missed a few decent opportunities early Wedneaday to interview real neighbors and spectators on Laurel Rim Drive, but kept leaving the scene just before folks arrived.

SGVN reporter Dan Abendschein just returned from the shooting scene in Diamond Bar. He says details surrounding the case remain sketchy. A sheriff's spokesman told Dan the victim, identified as a male adult, had been shot to death.
Unlike the triple in Rowland Heights last week, the Coroner's van made an early appearance and early exit from the scene.
A man who lives in the Diamond Bar apartment where the incident took place, was fairly well known around the neighborhood, but no one could remember his name. They did recall the name of his dog though -"Marley"
One person was possibly taken to the Walnut Station for questioning.
