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.

Fox Reporter made a statement that he could be anywhere in the state. I hope that is not the case, sounds like you do want a tight area as long as one thinks he is in a car

I don't do court stuff anymore; haven't for about five years; it's a JUNGLE in there and it finally creeped me out so much I stopped accepting those jobs. People coming and going, dragging their kids and their gawd awful friends into the courtroom. You just never knew what would happen.
And yes, it does creep me out.
I do personal injury stuff now; you know, the people who sue after the insurance company doesn't pay their claims......LOL. After a week of hearing about how somebody has a soft tissue injury and can't even lift a CD to watch a movie, I'm ready to see some missing limbs. ;-)

It sounds like they've found the suspect with a hostage in the trunk (my interpretation).

I'd be a bad juror Howlin. After working with felons for all those years, they're all guilty to me. I'd have to beg out of any criminal cases. Maybe I could be more fair on a civil case.

As long as he's in a car, you can be assured that he'll be found. You can hide for years (Eric Rudolph), and you can hide a body forever (Jimmy Hoffa), but there's just no way to escape detection if there is a car involved (see Susan Smith case, for example).

True, teachers should be there but at least the kids aren't.

If SWAT has found something to swat, we may not have long to wait.

I wasn't making an excuse; I was saying that I couldn't set aside my feeling about drugs in order to be fair to the defendant.
I could have just as easily have lied and stayed on the jury and not been fair to the defendant; do you think that would have been a good idea?
