Fulton Co. Judge shot and killed in courthouse shooting (BREAKING Fri 9A)

WAGA-TV/WSB-TV Atlanta | 3.11.05

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.

deputy has small bruise on her brain, bullet did not penetrate skull, is in critical condition but expected to survive

Okay, so now the female deputy is the second one, not the one the perp took the gun from. So I was right the first time... I think...

[Gumption]

Whatever do you mean? ;

[NautiNurse]

Female deputy shot in head is in critical condition, other deputy dead. So sad.

[Rightly Biased]

Stealth Kitties?

"According to reports a female deputy had her gun taken by the criminal, who shot her and the three others. She is alive, the others are dead."

Shouldn't this be impossible? How can you say you have security system; if all a violent defendant needs to do is out muscle a woman or weaker man. Was she the only Deputy in the court room?
What exactly is the point of the metal detectors and all the other so called security, if they are not going to have any real security in the courtroom itself?

I have no police, security or weapons training so I am simply amazed by cases like this.

I saw a reenactment of the shoot out in Miami in the 90s, where 4 FBI agents were killed and I was dumfounded by the apparent lack of training confronting heavily armed suspects. What about the 4 Mounties who were killed. What am I missing here?

Thanks. I have FOX News Channel on now.

[Crawdad]

If it weren't so sad, it would be funny.

[Dead Corpse]

He's a moron...

Got one of the surgeons up now. Turns out the cop that was gut shot was DOA. Second was the gal who got shot in the mouth. Still alive. Fractured skull in critical condition. But she should survive.

I believe her comments were inappropriate, but I also believe she has the right to express her opinion.

And we have the right to tell her she's an idiot.

Is that a Dunkin Donuts "Curbside to go" locale?

"What's with the doublespeak?"

Welcome to the modern day Atlanta/Fulton Country Georgia.

I read Boortz's website and he keeps people updated on the Liberal lunacy that goes on in that town. The doublespeak you're hearing...despite the facts that have been reported already is just a symptom of that.

[international american]

Yeah, three people were permanently disturbed.

[kingattax]

good work......thanks again

[DCPatriot]

I believe her comments were inappropriate, but I also believe she has the right to express her opinion.

Absolutely correct.

[null and void]

What? Tell the rest of that story, please!!!!

Not now. It's rather long, and hasn't made trial yet. Scheduled for end of May.

[Rightly Biased]

And we have the right to tell her she's an idiot.

And we did.

[txradioguy]

"Does anyone believe that P.C. ended up killing three people today? "

(jumping up and down) I do! I Do!

[Not A Snowbird]

Bada boom!

[FreedomHasACost]

Is that what they are saying???
