The LCSO does NOT owe Saundra an apology for not calling ahead. Cops don't call ahead for things like this! An inherent part of the collection of evidence and statements is the element of surprise. Give a person warning and you give them a chance to cover their tracks, concoct false stories, etc. It is standard practice.<div>

The LCSO owes Saundra Lund an apology!<br>

Now, if you will excuse me I have a few items to mail.<br>
<br>
