Not Too Blue: The 6 Degrees of Harlow R. Cuadra and Jason R. Drake

We're fascinated by the many apparent coincidences and happenstances that permeate daily life, especially of the "six degrees" of association and linkage kind. Today, our ongoing forensic research has revealed some "coincidences" and "random links" that may signify far more if in fact they're not coincidences or random links at all. Here are the facts.

Harlow Raymond Cuadra lived in Florida until 2002, about 90 miles from Orlando, the scene of last week's double murder and suicide involving the Republican consultants and the former Marine, Jason R. Drake, their killer who committed suicide. This Harlow R. Cuadra who lived in Florida was born in the same month and year as the man in jail in Pennsylvania for the murder of Bryan Kocis.

Interestingly, several Florida addresses from the first 5 years of this decade for a Jason R. Drake put him as close as 25 miles from street addresses for Harlow R. Cuadra.

Even more intriguing, there are also Florida addresses in the same area as Harlow Cuadra for a Joseph Kerekes whose age at the time corresponds to the Joe Kerekes jailed in Pennsylvania.

Jason R. Drake was reportedly trying to get one of the Republican consultants to contribute major funds for Harlow Cuadra's defense owing to a connection he had made that resulted in one of the Republican bigwigs being a Norfolk Companions (Harlow's escorting front) client.

Coincidence? Happenstance? Or a web of connections that gets darker and deeper the more forensic research we do?

You be the judge. We'll keep digging, as the family of one of the defendants has hired us to do.
And we'll try not to get too Blue.
