And yet somehow a SHOT and BURNED body isn't worthy of being deemed as a homicide by SBPD........ Strange how no mention of these bullet wounds were mentioned in the "official" reports ....

I'm pretty sure this is the Magnolia that is around H st, so not SCO territory per se, but close enough. SCO mainly claims the area west of the freeway. But there is LOTS of SCO who live in and around that area all the way until E street.
