Someone grabs your gun and it doesn't much matter after that.

Howlin ... if I spot this creep comeing up my driveway and I take him out with my twelve guage, do I go to jail?

In most of Georgia, probably not. In Atlanta, perhaps.

"There will be enough thugs who will see what he has done as being something great and will help him."

Sadly plausible . . . http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1361031/posts

I don't agree with you.

There is not a racial angle to this crime. I think he would be turned in by most even in the projects.

The victim testified against this animal. She was prepared to testify again.

You would be arrested and most likely go to jail if you were in NY

He may very well have a hostage by now.

Unless he has some militant-type friends who are willing to take the heat for harboring a cop/judge killer, it won't take a very long time (a few days at most) to catch this guy. Since he's already on trial, they've investigated his life and I'm sure they're pretty familiar with his family/friends/associates. They're going to put the squeeze on them, and they'll squeeze hard until he shows up. I don't think anyone he knows will harbor him--just for that reason.

And when they do find him, he will probably force law enforcement to shoot him dead.

well, again, if you read what I said, I said there would be enough thugs that would help him. I'm sure that there are more that would turn him in...but speaking from 20 years experience in this arena...I can assure you that there are many, many out there that would help him out. I have prosecuted, and defended too many of them to believe otherwise.

"he will probably force law enforcement to shoot him dead"

IMO, this has already happened - they just have to find him.

"How on earth can one carry a gun into a courthouse???"

Not really too tough if you aren't worried about getting discovered, and if you plan a shooting spree you sure as hell know that you're going to be discovered.

Angels Davis did it in San Rafael, back in 71, when George Jackson was on trial, and that was the day that Judge Halley was killed.

In most libtopian ruled states, if the perp shoots at you and the bullet ricochets and kills him, you could possibly go to jail.

My grandmother was murdered in Atlanta.

The evidence: Fingerprints inside the house.

Signed confession that matched the evidence
of the crime scene.

Testimony by the killer's roommate: "He told
me he killed an old woman that night."

Killer's own testimony on the stand that each
line of the confession was of in his own
words.

Verdict: Not Guilty

I'm sure that they will check his known associates, but there will be some that will still help. I'm sure they will ultimately find him, but it may take a while. It may not. And I feel certain that in the end, he will die for his deeds. Probably quite violently.

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.

Watch 'The Godfather' again. Seasoned shooters know that the "eyewitnesses" to homicide nearly always get it ALL wrong & mixed up & confused. Video is much better & I'd bet that Motorist Brian Nichols knew that.
