The best place ... at the moment
Sarajevo news magazine Slobodna Bosna has a story on the family of Trolley Square killer Sulejman Talovic that recently returned to Bosnia. The Deseret News printed a translation of the story here.

Suljo Talovic father told the magazine that his family did not flee the United States.
"Nobody said to us that we have to go. Nobody pushed us out of Salt Lake City, and nobody threatened us or treated us badly.

"On the contrary, local people comforted us after the tragedy, they gave us consolation. We came back to Bosnia simply because this is the best place for us at the moment, for me, for my sick wife and for our children,"

In February 20907, Talovic's 18-year-old son, Sulejman, shot nine people — killing five — before he was killed by police at Trolley Square. The final investigative report, issued last month, failed to find a motive for the rampage.

Suljo Talovic says his family may someday return to the United States.
