Is this why Amherst Police Department has dragged its feet for 13 years now? Because UMass student Petrit Vasi was a non-resident? An immigrant? A refugee? From the Balkans? Was he Muslim, too?
A witness statement claims 5-6 cops were with Vasi when he was in front of Bart's, minutes before he was struck down and left for dead on Triangle Street. That's a lot of cops for one drunk student on a Thursday night.
Seems like Vasi took off down Kellogg Street. If so, why go in that direction, away from campus? Pretty unlikely he knew anyone on Kellogg, Smith, or Triangle Streets; not exactly a student kind of place. Was he fleeing from someone? Did someone try to catch up to him or chase him into the road? Did this person see Vasi get hit? Could he identify the car? The plate number?
UMPD's cadet program (remember the UMPD cadet mentioned in the podcast?) was modeled on the Amherst Police Department's cadet program (since ended). Were one or two of these "cops" actually cadets?
Once again, Amherst Police Department is fully aware of the sensational nature of the Maura Murray disappearance.
Amherst PD could easily issue a statement saying that there is no connection between the Vasi hit and Maura Murray's disappearance. Why hasn't Capt. Ronald Young, Capt. Jennifer Gundersen, or Chief Scott Livingstone done so? Other departments issue statements like this all the time. Unless there's some reason not to.
