My home county. I remember when the SOB did this the first time. He was a classmate of my sister.

The only thing that works is the death penalties. Killers almost always kill again. They kill somebody in jail, or they kill somebody as soon as they get out.

Prevent recidivism. Support the death penalty. Save (innocent) lives.

Why in heaven’s name wasn’t this man executed or put away for life? What is wrong with our judicial system?

Ties in with this thread:

Chattanooga: Hikers packing concealed heat

"384 incidents including killings, rapes, robberies, kidnappings and aggravated assaults occurred in national parks in 2006, according to the National Park Service."

Liberals are against defending yourself from bandits in national parks and are fighting against a bill in Congress that will allow you to do so.

These are the same people who let a double murderer out of prison after 14 years for his crimes that occurred in a national park.

When it comes to your very life, never compromise with a liberal.

It’s just a shame we can’t get the killers in national parks together on the same trails at the same time with the politicians who ban guns in national parks ...

I vaguely remember hearing about this when I was in high school...I grew up over the mountains in Amherst but we got the TV stations out of Roanoke and they were all over the murders.

Texans say it best...”there’s some folks that just need killin’.” This guy is one of ‘em.

And the Parole Board members aren’t asked a word about why they felt it was safe to release him.

... authorities closed a 25-mile stretch of the Appalachian Trail... "I just hope this doesn't reflect bad on the trail,... people (might) start to think it's unsafe."

Naw. Nuthin' like that.

Guns aren't allowed on the Trail (National Park land), so it's "safe". Just ask any Liberal who wants to prevent honest concealed carrying citizens from legally carrying a weapon.

The fact a convicted murderer had a gun and was wandering the Trail hunting for new victims doesn't mean private citizens should be allowed to carry them in self defense. Better to keep those rules in place to prevent Wild West shootouts or mass slaughter of Bambi and Smokey.

After all, we are constantly reminded by the Liberals and the National Park Service Phoobahs that the Parks are "safe". So, they must be!

Dept of Interior just released proposed changes that would allow folks with state CCW permits to carry concealed firearms in the national park system and along both the Appalachian and the Pacific Crest trails. That relaxed rule could have resulted in an unknown number of crimes prevented just as it does now in states that have "shall issue" carry permits.

If killing two people in cold blood is only worth 14 years, then shooting two more ought to get him at least another 5-7 years. Hikers in VA can sleep well tonight (sarc)

How did he dodge the needle last time? We’re usually pretty good about solving problems like this.

He served 14 years of a 30 year sentence? Why does that not make me feel really comfortable?
