BELLINGHAM, Wash. A judge set bail at $1,000,000 for the Bellingham woman accused of murdering a Langley, Washington man and leaving his body in a park in Blaine.
Thomas Flood’s body was discovered in Semiahmoo Park on April 7th and his van with a pool of blood in it was later found in Fairhaven.
Court documents state that surveillance video, tips from witnesses, bullets, blood and other evidence led investigators to 62-year-old Lynda Clare Mercy.
A witness reported that she was seen arguing with Flood near where he slept in the van in Langley early on April 6th.

+ April 17, 2021 LABOR group Kilusang Mayo Uno (KMU) is preparing for a noise barrage on May 1, Labor Day, to condemn the poor condition of workers amid the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic. Let us make some noise by clanging our pots and make the deaf administration of Duterte hear our cry for more assistance. It is simply an insult for the government to make us line up the whole day for its meager P1,000 assistance, said KMU secretary general Jerome Adonis.
He said the workers need sufficient wages while displaced employees must be given decent cash assistance. Our call is give daily wage earners P100 additional wage, while those without jobs must be provided P10,000 per month, said Adonis.

When the coronavirus pandemic hit last year, Ellen Wormser’s work as a nurse-midwife for Fair Haven Community Health Care, a Federally Qualified Health Center in Connecticut, changed significantly.
Gone were the sort of family scenes that Wormser said she was accustomed to seeing in delivery rooms before COVID-19, when women giving birth often had a number of people cheering them on. Wormser said she saw many of her colleagues don PPE to assist COVID-positive women in labor, often spending hours face-to-face with them.
“I was scared for all of us but everybody went and did their job,” Wormser said. “We were so anxiously awaiting a vaccine because we knew that that would turn the corner in allowing patients to come in and get the care that they need.”
