they knew this guy,he had attacked them before. They have been called out on him lots of times. He made a habit of beating up women.he was always out of control.They say he wasnt taking his meds. well it was up to them to make sure he did. then they say when he did take it he still acted out. at that point they should of had him on 9th floor at lsu.So they are the blame for all of this.

stop blaming the ones that are trying to save a life.Theirs. This nut went for a gun. He didnt care that he was fixing to take a life. officer did what he needed to do and glad he did. One more nut off the street. The women this nut beat now can rest and not worry about him coming back and doing again.

We should make it policy for police officers who are being attacked and assaulted to ask the perp
if they have a mental illness before defending themselves! What a sad state the democrats and liberals have brought our country to!

the police was wayy in the wrong on this one. This guy was a friend of mines brother-in-law. And as far as the witnesses, he was standing there jumping around, when he was shot, and on top of that shot him 5 times, that cop needs to go to prison for murder. If someone was to break into your home and you pulled a gun and shot the guy, you would probably be okay, but, if you shot the guy 5 times, then there going to say over kill and your going to prison.

no body to blame but family for not getting the help this guy needed. He wouldnt of got shot the frist time if he would of done what he was told.
He hadnt of got shot by the officers then im sure the family members of that 77 year old woman would of done it. so im glad it went down the way it did, no more women have to worry about the jerk beating on them.
