LEOs found that prick. Hope he did resist (they won’t tell us) and he was properly restrained. Piece of shiP. Public Castration.
Now, how about Gavin? Everyone have the Proper Paper ready? Gitt’er done dammit!
Is it possible the victim got was coming to them ? Sometimes police do not need to be involved to settle a dispute.
I think this dude was a Warden of ECI at one time when the administration was collaborating with inmates on moving drugs around the jail.
In fact, one security chief on the West Compound was buying and selling a boat with inmates in UNIt four
Victim pronouns he/they? Possibly a domestic dispute? “the victim, who is not being identified at this time, was assaulted and held at knifepoint. They were transported…”
Use of they is standard journalistic practice to provide anonymity for the victim. Stop your pearl clutching, Karen.
