James Cummings shot, killed in Maine - Ft. Bragg Advocate-News

A slight correction. The newspaper you quoted is in Bangor ME. That is why it is called the Bangor Daily News.

So what, Its more conected to here than you know. They grew up here got maried, their familys are here, and his Father was shot to death as well, and that was here. and you know what Amber is not a victim in defence, She has been plottin for years and James Cummings was not violent to her.She is very deseptive and smart though.

I seen Amber often and there was a time she had black eyes so swollen and her face was black and blue. She played it off that she had been hurt remodeling their home, but we all wondered. She was very pleasent, but always looked over her shoulder in fear her husband was watching if she were to speak to anyone. He was very angry, never left the property, screamed and raged alot. When the truth comes out about his sick and disturbing hell he had made for his family, it will make most horror movies look G rated. Thank goodness Amber and her daughter made it out alive.

Another case illustrating the epidemic of domestic violence in this country. Poor little girl. If he was an abuser, I am glad that his victims are the survivors in this case. All too often it is the innocent that die and the abuser goes on to abuse again. Another abuser from Fort Bragg????? I think they need an education program about domestic violence starting in the high school.

Fort Bragg does need a wake up call about Domestic violence. There are some good links and advice on the website set up to honor the memory of Katlyn L.ong, the young woman who died under suspicious circumstances, her exboyfriend is the person of interest in her death.

It's all about his money....They owned a business in Fort Bragg, they worked together and all was good. She has family and could have left him anytime she wanted...She liked having the money and possessions. Don't let her fool you.

How do you know all of this? Have you ever been a victim of abuse? If not, you don't have a clue about this. Think before you speak especially about things you have not experienced.

Yes, I was a victim of abuse for 34 years. I do know what I'm talking about and yes I did know them.

There is no excuse for domestic violence...There was no money, no I couldn't afford blush to cover the bruises...He is still alive and well, I ran for my life and was help by people who knew my situation...I did not take his life....and I would never have done such a thing with my children in the home...Think of what that poor child is going through.

Until you know the truth, its just your opinion, your ignorance. People have seen the bruises, and if you actually asked anyone in Belfast, they would say you are wrong. You dont know what went on behind closed doors, you were not there. Wait until the entire story comes out, then you can form an opinion, who really are you to judge anyhow?

It seems to me that Amber could have returned to Fort Bragg, She has family there..She may not have had any money but would have been far removed from the abuser..the news didn't mention that she appeared to have been physically abused, she was not seen by a doctor or even checked for any injuries...

to california girl. you obviously don't know about abuse, because if not you would know that it is not as easy as you put it "she could have left anytime." some abusers threaten to kill the family, and since the abuser knows where the wife's family lives, it is very easy for the abuser to find her...this is why they have domestic violence shelters. i've seen women/men be harassed even when having restraining orders, because some abusers just don't care. she might have also been worried that he would get custody of their child. there are a million things that might have detained her from leaving, so, no, it is not as easy as you say.

She was charge with murder this week.

This is just a formality, the truth will set her free.

California Girl, explain exactly how she would have managed to have left Belfast, ME?

Lessee ... no regular bus service ... airport hundreds of miles away ... no access to a car due to volcanojerk's surveillance ... no train service. I suppose she was just going to walk 100s of miles in subzero freezing weather with her kid and the clothes on her back. Right.

Do the terms ISOLATED and REMOTE mean anything to you? Of course not - you don't know the area and you don't know shinola about her life there.

"nudenglander" are you a relative or friend?

Concord Trailways goes through Belfast several times a day enroute to Portland and Boston. Amtrak runs out of Portland. I have no dog in this fight and will wait til the court does its thing to make up my mind on right or wrong. But Belfast Maine isn't as desolate a place as you describe.

My question, If Little Ms. Amber is granted bail, where is the money coming from...She didn't have money to leave Belfast, her family can't afford it, Oh I guess her murdered husband will be paying for it. I don't think she should be able to use his money to get out of jail since she murdered him. There has to be something we the public doesn't know, in order for the Grand Jury to indict her on murder charges...hmmmm

JC or James as some knew him, Was always a little different so to speak. So is Amber, I'd hate to be on this Jury.

Some topics just need to drop off!
