Two Chicago castmembers may have dropped out because of shooting on doorstep

Hello! Here's some new information that many, many, many of you probably have forgotten...

Long, long ago... back in January, when the Real World: Chicago was filming, it was reported that two cast members opted to leave Chicago and film for Las Vegas. Remember that? Let us fill you in... Apparently, within days of moving into the house, there was a shooting at the Chicago house. A man died in front of the building. Well, the Chicago Sun-Times reported that there was a shooting in front of the Real World house, letting every single person in Chicago know where the house was. Well, soon after that, protesters were surrounding the house telling Real World to leave Chicago. It was a big deal at the time. Apparently, producers gave the cast the choice of leaving the show to do Las Vegas which would begin filming in July. Two original Chicago cast members dropped out. Who were they? Why were they replaced? No one seems to know... Many believe that explains the reason why there was NO casting special for the first time since Boston. And many believe that there will be no casting special this next time. Don't count on BMP airing that tidbit though... Since the departure of Melissa of Miami fame (She left the house shortly before filming ended... but she was kept on the show.) , BMP has been known to keep their mouth shut on casting during the season (ie. Irene (Seattle), Justin (Hawaii), Ruthie (Hawaii)), trying to make the Real World as real as possible. Hopefully, they will satisfy the cravings of some wild fans!
