Yeah, they were talking about this on the news, now they're trying to get guns out of courtrooms, so the deputy's can't carry weapons. I blame the entire episode on the deputy personally. He didn't control his weapon, and worse yet, when a situation arose, couldn't handle it. What a fucking pathetic 'civil servant'. Now there's 3 people dead because he regards his weapon as a toy.

Brian Nichols, 33, was captured after a daylong manhunt following the killing of a judge and two other people at a downtown courthouse, Glenn Richardson, speaker of the Georgia House, announced on the House floor.

Police searching for Nichols said a Customs agent was discovered shot to death in north Atlanta on Saturday, and his blue pickup truck, pistol and badge were missing.

A black sports utility vehicle, escorted by multiple police cars with lights flashing and sirens on, left the complex at about 11:45 a.m. A crowd of people across the street began cheering as the motorcade passed.
