Fulton Co. Judge shot and killed in courthouse shooting (BREAKING Fri 9A)
WAGA-TV/WSB-TV Atlanta | 3.11.05

Posted on 03/11/2005 6:39:06 AM PST by mhking

This is a breaking news situation.

A man entered a courtroom in the Fulton County Courthouse this morning and shot a Fulton County Sheriff's deputy, a clerk and a judge; there are reports from both WSB and WAGA, the judge is deceased.

The perp has carjacked multiple vehicles -- now on his third -- and is still at large.

I've just come from downtown Atlanta, and the city is a madhouse.

I'll sleep better tonight knowing that is the case. Shooting him dead will serve as a "lesson" to other animals following his path.

Something tells me he's not concerned about his outcome.

You're calling someone else on this thread a jerk? That's rich.

Help me out here. Can you provide a specific example of this?

But trying to shut up the argument down before it has started down with pc garbage so that is will never be discussed, when there is an illegal problem, is just wrong

FGS, it was a JOKE; you people need to LIGHTEN THE HELL up.

No. He held hostage the whole courtroom for 2 hours before he escaped.

I did not hear that before!

BTW, when I heard Fox go to the Atlanta reporter who first gave the handcuff story, I posted it but I waited to hit "post" because I was just sure that Bridget Quinn would have him repeat that part (so I could confirm I'd heard correctly) as it was (to me) so stunning and such news.

No luck. Bridget didn't seem to catch it.

Don't you need to go bomb an abortion clinic or something? You have become tiresome here.

You're still here? Any comment on the fact that the judge that you so gleefuly celebrate getting shotwas NOT the one to make the recommendation to have the womans tubes tied? Any comment on the fact it was the DA...with the agreement of the defense that made the decision on this kind of punishment?

Or are you just obtuse enough to not really care?

in a hospital setting, there is usually some more physically capable person (male nurse/orderly), whose JOB it is to assist

Fantasy, utter fiction. Oh, you didn't indicate they were actually available.

Local tv is not showing a press conference yet.

I am so confused about the schools. Atlanta should be out of school. They must be talking about private schools.

I bet there will be a lot of applications for a gun licence in the Atlanta area tomorrow. I personally don't have a gun and I feel a lot better with one right now.
