"Tom Makes His Own Schedule."

KDFW-Channel 4

Melissa Cutler of KDFW-Channel 4 was in the office yesterday interviewing Schutze for a story that ran on the Fox affiliate last night. And, yes, it was about Lynn Flint Shaw's "Inner Circle" and the e-mails about which Jim wrote on Tuesday. The video, which has Mayor Tom Leppert and Willis Johnson's responses, can be found here, the top of the two videos located on the page.

Also, for those so inclined, The Dallas Morning News has just posted the 911 call that alerted authorities to a possible suicide inside the Shaws' house on Monday night. --Robert Wilonsky

I can't locate the Leppert & Johnson videos. Have they been removed from the channel 4 web site or am I looking in the wrong place?

@Lakewooder,

From the "here" link in the above story the videos (you can see small thumbnail images of them) are in the sidebar just underneath the picture of Rufus Shaw. They have not been removed.
