"shooter on trial last week for kidnapping and rape of his fiance..."
Yep, 11 charges I believe and no bail, which leads me to believe he was considered a danger to himself and others, and a flight risk. So why wasn't he in restraints? Bad courtroom policy cost these people their lives. I'm wondering how many other times this guy has been arrested and convicted for similar crimes.

I was pinning it up to a similar profile. Interesting.
Certainly, he's a gamer thus far...praying he turns himself in peacefully.
Certain that if he doesn't, he simply must be killed.

By the time I post this you will probably have a dozen replies, but shanks are like homemade weapons that prisoners make in jail. I was watching some show and they were showing a bunch of different kinds. One was a toothbrush that had been sharpened into a severe point.

Wonder if they think he is moving up 400. Said to be checking interstates in midtown. Has 400 split off by midtown or after midtown? (I never pay attention, I just drive it)
Anyway-they don't know where the hell he is.
To: mass55th
Makes you wonder even more why he wasn't in restraints. Generally, while you can keep them in restraints for pre-trial hearings, you have to take the restraints off for jury trials because it would keep the defendant from getting a fair trial if the jury saw what a bad dude he really was. Some jurisdictions are now using shock belts that you can hide under the clothes to control the really bad animals, but you generally can't parade them out in front of the jury in shackles and leg chains.

Am hearing on WABC radio news that a reporter from the Atlanta Journal Constitution was pistol whipped and her car was carjacked.

A motive for the shooting was unknown. One woman said she saw the man run past her as she entered the parking garage of the courthouse.The motive was "unknown"????
Good grief, the reporter who wrote this couldn't guess that maybe the perp was trying to escape????

A shank, or shiv, is anything that can be sharpened to a point and used as a stabbing or slashing improvised weapon. Not all are made of metal.

They need to get the truck drivers on this pronto. They can probably locate him quicker than the cops.
