Matthews, a 61-year-old former Steelworker who quoted the U.S. Constitution like a preacher thumbing a worn Bible, say he was suspicious of government.But nobody knows why he chose a routine traffic stop Friday night to make his final stand, fatally shooting a Massillon police officer in the back before he was killed himself in return gunfire.He might have been returning home from a constitutionalist study group in Cleveland

He refused to pay personal income taxes, at least three times. In a Web site posting in May 2000, Donald W. Matthews protested “unconstitutional and onerous gun laws” in the United States. He tried to gather support to petition the U.S. Supreme Court about citizens’ gun rights. His screen name was “Broom Handle.”
