Feb 2013

one of the commentators asked a reporter if anyone had been in contact with Dorner's family. She answered that they had gone there, to where his mother lived, but that other members of the press who were camped out in the vicinity told them that Dorner's mother had asked the media to stop knocking on her door and other's told them that Nancy Dorner had begun calling 911 whenever anyone came to her door.

I can't even imagine the feelings that mother must have experienced during this past week but a certain doom must surely have set in once the flames began shooting up from that cabin.
