Fulton Co. Judge shot and killed in courthouse shooting (BREAKING Fri 9A)
WAGA-TV/WSB-TV Atlanta | 3.11.05

Posted on 03/11/2005 6:39:06 AM PST by mhking

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.

I didn't know your wife had been in an accident. I hope she's o.k.

Hope he doesn't come out your & my way (we're in Smyrna/Vinings).

Give it up. He's a disgruntled kidnapper, rapist, and sodomizer.

"The allegation was that he was in a relationship with the young lady for about eight years. He planned on spending her birthday with her. He had gone to her house a couple days prior to her birthday with an ice chest and lunch meat and bread. He had planned on staying with her and he apparently held her hostage and allegedly raped her, kidnapped her and sodomized her and, at some point, she got away," said Rockwell.Rest of the story here.

Mayor Blooming-idiot makes me rant EVERY day.

Hubby worked in NYC for decades and am thankful those days are over.

Truthfully, I don't have much use for Kelly or Scapetta......the city will turn into a rerun of Dinkins by the end of Blooming-idiots second term.

since he killed some members of the ruling elite and so the police will put in an all out effort rather than assigning it to a detective part time as they would if he'd killed a few ordinary tax paying peasants.

Utter tripe. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Oh, we're locked down and the 12 gauge is in my lap. My kid's on spring break.

Rumors had the guy spotted in the Galleria area awhile back, but apparently that's no longer operative.

That's pretty much the dictionary example for "damning with faint praise".
