To all who criticize the police work and security procedures, please understand that you are making the defense for the perpetrator. He was upset and unbalanced, and the Atlanta police and justice system didn't make adequate provisions for his safety.

Hind sight is 20/20. As soon as Nichols attacked the deputy its all on him. The death penalty is the only proper result from this incident. Atlanta has been securing prisoners with armed deputies for many years and it was a good enough system until Mr Nichols took things into his own hands.

Yes, improve the security, but not until after Nichols is properly executed for his crimes.

So, the good people of Atlanta should wait 10 years or more until this POS is dead before they make any changes?

Oh, yeat, great idea. Let's make sure some more people get killed./sarcasm off.

Never cover up this kind of crap for any reason. these people are a joke. Leaving off restraints, one deputy( never mind she was a small female, one deputy is stupid even if the deputy was huge)armed, all of these are stupidity at its finest and I will agree with the guy who said the judge helped cause this and helped bring on his own death. The judge could have stood up to this kind of PC BS and demanded that prisoners be shackled (dangerous ones) when brought into the court room.

It all adds up to incompetence of the highest order and I haven't even started on how stupid they were after the prisoner escaped!

I'm sorry. That post was just plain silly and perhaps you should re-read it and think about whether you really meant to say some of the things you said.

Thats just stupid. Wouldn't it be wise to improve security NOW since it has been exposed as weak? Besides, it could be years until he is executed. Cops should have taken care of that Saturday, IMO.
