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.

The TV stations are falling down on the job; no helicopter scenes today OR yesterday! I did so want to see Jackson trying to get to court.

The son of a friend of mine recently became a sheriff's deputy. His first job was in the jails (to get used to the clientele he is likely to encounter on the streets). His second job was in the courts.
Is this the usual situation - to have rookies on courtroom duty?
Any FReeper out there with knowledge?

I don't have my undies in a bunch. I am not applauding HC. I am not defending lilylangtree. Logic tells me, at one time or another we have all made some pretty stupid statements. Unfortunately, she did it twice.

That is a good question; if you get a hung jury and they retry, if this kind of stuff is inside you, why take the risk?

"medium complexion"???
wth is that supposed to convey?
is there some rule now against clearly stating the suspect's most important identifying visible physical characteristic, after gender?

Motorist Brian Nichols will soon be apprehended...it will be caught on videotape...30-40 law enforcement officers watching him beaten with a nighstick...lawsuit vs. State of Georgia follows...Motorist Brian Nichols wins minimum $25 million award for violation of civil rights... everyone within a 1/2-mile radius comes to join in on the beating. When the dust clears, there is nothing left of Brian Nichols.
I like that ending better.

The post upthread said that when he hijacked the reporter's can, he did not have on a shirt. Taking off his blue shirt was probably his means of trying not to be identified quickly.
