Brian G. Nichols: Camera rolled during attack
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution ^ | 3/14/05 | YoungBlackRepublican

Posted on 03/14/2005 8:48:17 AM PST by YoungBlackRepublican

A video camera, which is supposed to be monitored by two guards in a command post, shows the two arriving in the holding area between two courtrooms, according to a law enforcement official who viewed the tape.

The video shows Hall guiding Nichols, whose hands are still handcuffed behind his back, face-first into one of two open cells.

Hall releases one cuff and turns Nichols around to unhook the remaining cuff, which is dangling from his wrist. She uncuffs him so he can change from a jail jumpsuit into street clothes.

The muscular, 33-year-old Nichols then lunges at Hall, knocking the petite, 51-year-old woman backward into another cell. Both disappear from camera view because having a camera inside the actual holding cells is prohibited for privacy reasons. Two to three minutes later, Nichols emerges from the cell, holding Hall's gun belt and police radio. He picks up her keys from the floor and locks her inside the cell. Nichols then enters the empty cell.

A couple of minutes later, he emerges dressed in civilian clothes. He locks the door behind him and saunters calmly out of the holding area, carrying the gun belt, according to the law enforcement official who viewed the tape. Nichols appears to know which key to use to unlock the holding area door and enters a vacant courtroom on the eighth floor.

Kerik, for all his personal foibles could straighten the demented situation out.

The Atlanta DA is the same one who let the mother who murdered her child skate..

Agreed. Curren hiring policies are insanity. What's next? A deputy in a wheelchair?

In LA you cannot segregate inmates... in Atlanta affirmative action is more important than safety.

Affirmative action and let the planes fall from the sky and do 911, that does not matter, so long as we have good quotas....

What does black have to do with it? You think white suspects in Atlanta are treated differently?

You obviously have no clue. Wake up, yes, discrimination against whites is ongoing and well documented.

The courts could care less because they know whites cannot sue them back.

Appears the victims were sacrificed on the alter of political correctness. My guess is black suspects are not supposed to be led into the courtroom handcuffed and shackled. It is not the Atlanta Way

Remember that the "guard" was a petite black lady of 51. Talk about safety in her hands... Cannot discriminate against the older, women and blacks... but you can against safety.

No not this family. There was more to that report than I commented on, proving the closet situation.

I hope this Atlanta monkey business puts an end to those PC TV shows where tiny women kick the sh*t out of huge men. Reality TV. Yeah right.

What! you aren't PC. Reality doesn't stop the cancer of PC. Just yesterday I saw some idiot government official defending having that small grandmother responsible for keeping this hulk in line. How utterly ridiculous.. Oh,....... I forgot, it's government. Government consists of 80% unproductive parasites.

You clearly have no clue.

The same procedures apply regardless of race.

Amazing. I hope that idiot doesn't have "power" over others.

I would imagine the family will sue their butts off.

They could equip these cameras with motion detectors that would automatically alert guards to movement. It's been shown that the average person can only look at a security monitor for 20 minutes before becoming distracted.

"This is odd."

As are the civilian clothes. It would seem like Nichols had an accomplice.

Like that BTK killer arrest - the man's daughter turns him in to the Donut Patrol, but there they were on TV the next day, handing out the Golden Donut Awards for great police work.

BTK's daughter did NOT turn him in. She was as shocked as anyone when her father was arrested. Just wanted to clear up your mis-statement about the daughter.

Ahhh. . . come on. . .KJC1 tells us that "training" can enable that 51 YO petite female to physically overpower (one-on-one) a 6ft, 200 lb + male. /sarcasm

You must have been one helluva of a cop, if you ever were one at all, to post a chicken sh*t reply like this and not even ping me to respond.
