LETTER: Reader from Vancouver wrong to attack 'Now' and Rasode

The Editor,

Re: "Rasode's flame-fanning after murder disgusting," the Now letters, Jan. 9.

Letter writer Alex Tsakumis takes the Now and Coun. Barinder Rasode to task. He is wrong on both counts.Tsakumis, from Vancouver, takes pride that Newton is so much better off than it was 10 years ago. Well, this is not 10 years ago - it's how it is today that counts.

After Julie Paskall's murder, the public was looking for some answers. Rasode put her finger on the cause. How can it be described as cowardly? Tsakumis says it was too soon. What length of time is adequately respectable?
