It was time for him to bring his own form of justice into play. He was a trained killer and excelled at what the Army trained him to do years ago in Vietnam. He left no evidence at the scene. Detectives Doug Pretraius and Mike Ventura were working the case, but were stymied. The unsolved murders had the city in turmoil. Tuesday MacGregor, a reporter for the San Francisco Bee, wrote articles that referenced a ""vigilante."" The use of such a connotation-heavy word--along with her condemnation of the city's administration and the inept Police Department--creates a sense of fear and wonder in Sacramento.

Should they seek to bring him to justice, or stand down while he administers it to the criminals plaguing the city?
