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.

"Aw jeez - reporter just asked if any of those killed were able to make a statement!!"

Possibly as in: Before they died, were any of the victims able to make a statement?

Hey I am for the rule of innocent until proven guilty but frankly when you have eye witnesses to the crime .. not a video cam ... not from a distance ... it pretty much means his goose is cooked.

If he is caught alive, who da heck would defend him? Nobody in their right mind could.

Excuse my ignorance, but is THAT a "medium complexion"?

Compared to someone from Nigeria, yea it is. Since they ID'd him as "Black" or "African-American", the term "medium complextion" is thus relative to that subset of the population.

Kelly was Dinkin's police commissioner. I am not surprised that he is Blooming-idiot's police commissioner.

one of the anchors on channel 11 said they will not show aerial coverage of the search or possible apprehension, due to company policy, and possibly compromising law enforcement efforts.

There's the magic question: "Should a woman be transporting a 6 foot, 200 plus pound suspect?"

personally, I like the look of a big ol giant State Trooper guarding me over any petite or even good sized female....men are just stronger period ....

we have to acknowledge that there are lots of smaller men that could be easily overpowered, or even tall, thin men that a good wind gust could knock over....

at the same time, sometimes smaller men are quicker, faster, perhaps a lot more reliable than someone who just is big, period....
