Perp killed another driver in a carjack the same day. Two families destroyed by a criminal who likely already had a violent offender history, and probably shouldn't have been walking the streets.

I was right:

DC carjacking suspect who shot Trump Official and others in 11-hour crime spree had previous felony charges dropped

The murders were just a cry for help.

Our society failed the perp.

Hi gal - I couldn’t pick up all of it but got enough of it to let us know the perp ended up for a dirt nap...

“”Cunningham, 28, was hours later gunned down by two New Carrollton Police officers on the northeast outskirts of DC’s Maryland suburbs.

Police cornered him about 4.30am on Tuesday, after his crime spree that also killed Alberto Vasquez Jr, 35, in a separate DC carjacking 90 minutes after Gill was shot.

Gill was the first victim of Cunningham’s campaign of terror, and just minutes later at 7.05pm he tried to carjack another motorist on 3rd Street NE, but failed.

Then at 7.17pm he shot Vasquez at 3rd Street and N Street and stole his car, which was later found in Takoma Park.

Cunningham committed more carjacking around DC and its suburbs, including bashing a taxi driver in the head with his gun and stealing his car in University Park in Prince George’s County, Maryland, at 11.23pm.

Then about 2.30am he shot the windscreen of a Maryland State Police trooper’s car, and about 3am sprayed the door of a DC Police officer’s car bullets as he drove past.””

Maryland Office of the Attorney General released the names of the officers involved in fatally shooting Cunningham: New Carrollton Police Sergeant Byron Purnell, a six-year veteran of the department, and Corporal Carlos Batenga, who has five years of law enforcement experience.

Will the bastards in MD railroad these officers like Chauvin?


D.C. Attorney General Brian Schwalb told Maryland residents who were demanding accountability for the rising juvenile crime rates that the district cannot β€œprosecute or arrest our way” out of the crime epidemic.

The HELL we can't. What a freaking idiot. Lock criminals up with long sentences and no parole. Build prisons. Prosecute even the smallest crimes and slap them with stiff sentences. Execute the ones committing capital offenses or selling drugs. Easy peasy. This is not rocket science. It's worked in our past.

We just need to get rid of the Schwalbs of the world and get some Judge Roy Bean types running the courts.

(Bean is known to have sentenced only two men to hang, one of whom escaped)

Report said mental health was a factor.

Funny how hate is never mentioned as a factor anymore in such crimes.
