2 2 THE BAMS WEEKLY JOMEO'S DEATH Friar against the law? Yesterday evening, Romeo and Juliet were found dead in the churchyard of the capulets. e couple was lying on Juliets grave. Cold, red and with no movement. Romeo who was already banned from the city for the murder of Tybalt, now showed up again on a horse with blazing speed. When he entered the churchyard, nobody dared to go in to stop him. Juliet supposed to came back to life a er her funeral ceremony, but when she saw Romeo lying died next to her she committed suicide. Next to her body was a gun located and a wound was found in her head. Studies of Romeos body show that he died of a terrific poison, his death took a matter of seconds a er the poison was taken. Detectives are still searching for clues where the poison came from, because it is very illegal and the smallest amount can kill a person. Romeos manservant: Balthasar said that Friar Lawrence was the last man who saw the two alive. "He went in to the churchyard about half an hour a er Romeo went in. I didn't dare to go in, because Romeo threatened to kill me if I did. And I have no idea what or if something was going on between Romeo and Juliet." According to Balthasar. Friar Lawrence also said he did not know anything. " ou art a liar!" Balthasar said. " ou were there." But still Friar Lawrence said he did and knew nothing. Gossips say that the priest had something in common with the murder. He claimed to know nothing and didn't talk anymore. ere is more about this later on in the paper. A lot of things are still unclear and have to be solved, more information will be released later. Although it looks very much like forbidden love, none of both families said to know anything about this couple and both families are very upset about their loss. Was this murder, a couple in love or just coincidence? ree very good detectives are on the case and they found out nothing yet. ey say that the couple was probably in love, but pressured to not to by their families. It is very likely that the event of Juliets death, which was most likely caused by Romeo's ban, was the reason for Romeo to come back and risk his life for his beloved wife. Our prayers and condolescenes to e Montagues and e Capulets. - Bas Franse

3 THE BAMS WEEKLY 3 Dear Petra, A time ago I had a party. It was a party of the Capulet family. It was already late in the evening and I had a great time. It was a bit dark and the music was loud. I was dancing with friends and the drinks were flowing. At a certain moment I kissed a guy, and we kept going. I did not know who it was. Tis bad what I did, because I already have a husband. But tis even worse that at a certain moment I realized t was my little nephew. So I really don't know what to do now. I don't even dare to look at him. I am really ashamed. Will you please help me? Do I have to tell it to my husband? How will he react? Will he leave me? Please help me, I'm desperate for thou to help me. Anonymous Hello Anonymous, I'm glad thou are being offered the help thou need. Whether or not thou are going to use that help is another matter. I can feel thou are in a very difficult situation. I would like to help you with this situation, but this is something personal thou have to chose for yourself. Do thou want to be honest with thy husband and tell him the truth? Or would thou rather keep it to yourself, but don't tell the truth? Ofcourse when thou tell thee husband the truth there are consequences. ou can never know in advance how thy husband is going to react. But think about how thou would feel if he was in this situation. And what thou think thee husband should do. Also think about that you're in a relationship with someone and why you kissed with another guy in the first instance. Do you want to fight for this relationship? Or you just want to let it go? So, a lot of luck with your problem and I hope that my advice can help you with thy problem. Kind regards, Petra

4 4 THE BAMS WEEKLY JUICY RUMOURS Spotted: Lady Capulet and mystery guest kissing. During the Capulet party, we catched Lady Capulet kissing with a unknown man. He looks suspiciously like Tybalt, but this is almost impossible since he is her nephew. (Picture Taylor Swi and Harry Styles). AGAINST THE LAW-(RENCE) A er the shocking news of Romeo's and Juliet's deaths, their bodies were examined. e investigation shows that there flows some poisoning liquid through Juliet's body. A liquid which is not recog nized before. From an anonymous person the police was told that the priest Friar Lawrence is the only one who got this liq uid. He hath to go to prison for murder, still unknown for how many years. Project X Verona Last night the whole neighborhood from Verona was in an uproar. A little, small party turned out into a massive house party where the whole neighborhood was involved with. e Capulet family gave a small party just for their own family. Loads of people were attracted to the par ty by a Facebook message which was post ed public accidentally. e cops were also involved and were busy cleaning up the streets from Verona far a er midnight.
