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.
Because Oklahoma sucks...
I thought he had a prior drug trafficking conviction.
Okay,I give up---what's AQ?
Hope you can get some sleep tonight :)
MH. Did you hear the attorney on O'Reilly that said in passing that judges can go into the courtroom armed if they wish? Just imagine if Barnes had been so armed. Maybe he was, but I seriously doubt it.
Al Qaeda.
I heard earlier today they put her (the victim he was being prosecuted for assaulting) in protective custody immediately this morning.
First let me say Stay Safe Freepers of Atlanta.
I wish some media folks would track down his family/exfiancee/friends and start painting a picture of this guy.
Is he smooth, shy, tempermental, has obvious speech or physical traits.
Also any of you in the Atlanta area have their scanners on tonight?
Prayers for the victems of this creep.
I still am dumbfounded about him packing a picnic and going to his fiencees' (ex, now) place to raping and sodomizing her.
Was it a "violent rape" or a fantasy sex date gone wrong? Ya never know now a days.
I would like to here her version.
Did I hear right they were engaged for 8 years? If so isn't that a bit odd?
Now if that death threat phone call really WAS him....
>>
And that garage is less than two blocks from the nearest MARTA station. So he literally could be anywhere.

More likely still standing on the platform waiting for a train.
Thanks!
Take care of yourselves down there.
Good night!
The car was on the lower level of the garage.
I missed that - I don't think Barnes was armed in any event.
That just makes my head hurt. Fox is saying that the Honda never left the parking facility it was just moved from one floor to another.
Silly questions don't demand intelligent answers. "Most secure city"?? What city is so secure as you suppose this one is? That is silly. Cities are not "secure".
What if an AQ agent could do this? Well... of course they could. It would be easy for anyone, or a big group, to go on a rampage and say... shoot up shopping malls all over the country. It would paralyze the country and there is no way to stop it.
So what?
Your source says the deputy was cuffing him after he was dressed. No place does it say she was with him while he was dressing. As a deputy she may have been in the area, but she was not said to have been in his cell.
I don't know what is "strange" that she was cuffing him after he was dressed.
I'm really out of it (stopped reading at noon pst). can you fill me in? What death threat?
Unbelievable
(and what a time for my tv card in the computer to whack out...I don't have tv coverage in the office)
ah, I didn't know that.
