When you go to the grocery store you’re looking for quality products and affordable prices. You’re probably not considering how the shop performed on its previous health inspection. After all, it isn’t preparing food in the same way as local restaurants. However, grocery stores go through the same health and quality control inspections as restaurants in the community as well. One local grocery store in metro Phoenix has an attached restaurant. This restaurant performed poorly enough to receive a D grade on its inspection (despite the grocery store passing the same inspection).

“We’re going to find this guy,” the sheriff said to Bill Gibbons, the news editor of the Gaffney Ledger. Bill was worried. He didn’t ask for this. Out of everything he wasn’t sure about, Gibbons was sure about this: “I just never want to hear that voice on my phone again,” He replied. They went back and forth about the upcoming rumors from the little town of Gaffney, South Carolina. The killer called once already, speaking directly to Bill about the coordinates of three different bodies that he placed around town. The people of Gaffney didn’t fully buy into the idea that he got this information for free. No, they had their own beliefs.
