A walk through the Santa Clara County hospital bed building shows a project in total disarray. The Turner Construction company was picked to build it but today top county leaders acknowledge millions of dollars have been wasted and the county is losing 100,000 a day in lost revenue. Work records we obtain show the original project contract was 291 million. Turner construction requested an additional 66 million and then another 9 million.

Police arrived on scene and they found him dead inside the house. Along with more than several quote marijuana potted plants inside the house. They would not say if the marijuana was a grow house or how it was situated in the house they would only say there were some potted plants inside the house. Now as we learned this new detail about the gunshot wound, they say that the man did have a right to be inside the house. But whether or not he was a resident or was just visiting we do not know.
