The trooper who shot him showed remarkable restraint in not executing this POS once he had him incapacitated. He was in prison for shooting a deputy multiple times then running him over with a car to kill him.
Unfortunately, he is alive. But, maybe his former buddies in prison will solve that problem, as punishment for his failing, and getting them harsher conditions as a result.
they had a chance to save the taxpayers a bundle--wonder how much it will cost to feed this cockroach for the next thirty years
Should've double tapped between the eyes. That would've saved the folks of NY some tax dollars. Sure Andy gave different orders.
I bet he's pissed. He was only about 3 miles from the Canadian border per what I just read.
I hope his condition is "dead".....
Give it time... :P
On, boo-hoo!
Maybe he'll sweat it out on prison.
