So how long must we wait for the Portland Police Department to complete their investigation into the tragic death of young Patrick Lobor? It seems that by now at least a short comment on the status of their investigation would be a humanly decent response. Many people want to know.

A remarkable memorial service at St. Luke’s, burial in South Portland and then a reception at the Root Cellar took place Aug. 11 with no police representation but hundreds of others on hand, including the Portland mayor.

What is wrong with this picture?
