Ganas Founder Shot Outside Home

Jeff Gross, 52 a co-founder of Ganas, the Prodigal Borough's generally good natured commune (and used stuff retail empire), was allegedly shot right outside his house (i.e. not far from our house) by a disgruntled former fellow utopian, Rebekah Johnson. Johnson had apparently been feuding with Gross since being ejected from the commune in 1996, and had filed a $3 million dollar lawsuit against him and other members alleging sexual asault and brainwashing. She dropped the case in 2001, but appaqrently has been going mentally downhill since then and had been arrested herself on harassment charges in 2005.

Perhaps it's time for Ganas to change its happy-go-lucky admissions policies (they let in anyone crunchy enough to want to join) and start becoming a little more xenophobic. At least, we'd sleep a little better if they did.
