Beaches are horrible places to commit crime.

The sand stops you from fleeing fast, increasing the need to take hostages.

And then hostages are hard to hold on to because they are slippery from the suntan oil.

There are so many better places to commit crime.

The aftermath captured on Jackson’s body camera revealed the emotional toll the encounter took on him as he left the store.

Taking out the trash has no emotional effect on me.

Every week after I bring the bags out, I've checked.

A liberal Democrat will say that was staged. Fake. Conservative false flag. I am not kidding.

Young, 29, had previously escaped from the New Hampshire Department of Corrections,

I've posted more than once that "he's going away for a long time" is a stupid cliche as they either get a plea deal or there's overcrowding or the lab mixed up dna for someone else so this and other cases get tossed

Or like this one, he escapes.

On Ted Bundy, an extremely dangerous serial killer: He then became a suspect in a progressively longer list of unsolved homicides in several states. Facing murder charges in Colorado, Bundy engineered two dramatic escapes and committed further assaults in Florida, including three murders, before being recaptured in 1978.

Just horrific. Just can’t watch this right now. Don’t want to have to go through vicariously what the officer went through. Hope he is ok.

And that concluded the negotiations. So much for the open casket.

Anyone who takes hostages deserves to die without honor. It sounds like this story had a happy ending.

Disappointed that the cop was acting like a girl afterwards.

At the risk of sounding cold or calloused....what’s the cop freaking out about? He did the only thing he could do in that situation and he did the right thing. Frankly, it wouldn’t have bothered me had I been in his place. The perp left him no choice.

Cop seemed to walk in...and blow the would be murderers brains to a mess..he must have been selected cause other cops just standing around. The negotiator didn’t convince the perp to give up. I think the shooter cop was recovering from the stress of remaining cool and aiming straight and shooting fast , right on target. Without physically harming the hostages. He Was probably undergoing recovery phase of fight or flight enervation. I hope he is ok..Hostages seem freaked out post rescue also. Horrible situation but hostage takers gotta go.
