Remember the case from about 20 years ago involving a cop killer. The state troopers were transporting him between counties, and there were a couple of car loads of civil rights workers tagging along to make sure nothing happened. Somehow the observers weren't able to keep up and lost sight of the cops. While they were trying to regain contact, the killer chose that opportunity to make his break, and was shot while escaping. Needless to say, the civil rights observers were unhappy.
That's the South for ya. (big, happy grin)
Pit-y...
