Sounds like an athlete coming to terms with an ankle injury that could keep them off the field for the rest of the season, not a man who just murdered his spouse.
How long to him allege temporary insanity.
White guys doing horrible stuff should have a bingo
Easyaccess to guns creates tragedy.
FTFY
“Well, I guess I’m done for a while.”
Awhile? With a confession like that, it should be for the rest of his life.
He’s a white gun owner in America and a member of the judiciary. With a confession like that, he could become President.
A fitting punishment might be to make him eat his 26,000 rounds of ammunition (26,000 rounds?! I imagine him bathing in bullets, like Scrooge McDuck in gold).
The fucker whined about his son, not the woman he married and murdered?!
Named Prosecutor of the Year four times by the Orange Co. Narcotics Officers Assoc.
Apparently the above didn’t affect his common sense. Do as I say, not as I do. The face of US justice.
Despite knowing it’s immaterial, can I just say I don’t really give a fuck how the asshole who murdered his wife feels about her murder? He surprised himself? I don’t care! He murdered his wife!
OK, rant over. This timeline makes me so damned tired…
Looking forward to his book tour and podcast.
Yeah, North Korea shouldn’t have the Bomb because Kim is unstable… ok…
Sadly, nothing could have been done to prevent this senseless tragedy /s
Wtf is the charge of “personally using a firearm”
At least nobody infringed on his Second Amendment rights.
not sure if it’s in this one, but the original story i read mentioned that he texted his bailiff and said “I won’t be coming in to work…” or something like that. jesus.
“Temper” or not, anyone who collects that many firearms is cause for concern. It’s Chekov’s Armoury.
Bail? Even if they confiscated his guns, don’t see why he’s out on bail. If he has 48 guns they know about, there’s probably one or two that are off the books, stashed away somewhere.
Or at least a new republician supreme court nominee.
I know that “gun enthusiasts” tend to horde weapons and ammo, but I’m curious as to whether 40-some guns and 26,000 rounds of ammo is “normal” for one of these people. Obviously, I think it’s insane. But I would be interested to know if when one of these second amendment types says “I collect guns” it means that they have a freaking arsenal in their house.
There is the problem.
What the fuck? Is this warzone? Why the hell a single person feel the need, let alone actually acquire and possess that much firearm? With that much weapon, he can kill himself and every single acquaintance many lifetime over.
Is this how he imaged himself?
For awhile? Is he serious? You’re done and shouldn’t be allowed to even hold a water pistol, let alone any lethal weapon.
I truly sorry for the wife. No one deserves this.
