   After reading this article, I fail to see how their furriness is relevant to   
   the murder case. Three people were murdered. Three people were taken into   
   custody for questioning. Two children were orphaned by murder.   
      
   Nowhere in the article could I see why them all being furries was relevant   
   to the murder that had taken place.
