FREDERICK, Md. — Fascinated with law enforcement, Robert Ethan Saylor would sometimes call 911 just to ask the dispatchers a question. He loved talking to police officers and was a loyal follower of the TV show ‘‘NCIS.’’
Now, his death at age 26 is the subject of a criminal investigation that has left those who knew him in his Frederick County community and those who didn’t around the country wondering: How did a young man with Down syndrome die in an encounter with the very people he idolized?

Since when can't you stay in your seat to view parts you may have missed by being late or even to review the entire movie? Is this the way these movie houses operate now? Police are too damned rough on people who aren't criminals. Cops around here scream in your face at the slightest provocation. As a child I loved policemen. As an adult I don't like the way they behave to people. Why was this poor man on the ground? Because he was acting up? So what?
