Firefight at Pahrump, NV RV Park

Any accused murderer, regardless of where he or she lives, is a flight risk. Don't get me wrong I think our constitution is a wonderful document, but it contains too many provisions for protecting the rights of the accused, and not enough for protecting the rights of everyone else. That needs to change.

Tatted, that's a dangerous line of thinking. Just because in this case, we "know" that the accused is also guilty, we shouldn't change the basis of operation of the justice system and Constitutional protections.

One day, you or I may be the accused. You or I may have done nothing "wrong". You or I might not share the views of "everyone else". Giving the accused a chance to redeem themselves, have a fair trial with a jury of their peers, and all the other protections the Constitution provides might keep you or me, or our friends/families out of prison in the future.

Send along my wishes for his speedy recovery. Let him know a former Pinal County, AZ deputy sends his regards. I hate hearing Amazing Grace being played on bagpipes.

+1. It'll take more than a couple of lousy bullets from the gun of a worthless BG to incapacitate a real man like him.

+2 ,Glad he is doing so well.
