Blount County - Manhunt underway for cop-killer

[Thunder Good-Oil]

There was a police response in Sevierville surrounding a mobile home an hour ago.

Well, I certainly never said or suggested that shooting cops is a “right” reaction.

I know, my friend...and I'm sorry if my message came off that way (that was not my intention).

Any updates on this?

Apparently the Johnson City rumor wasn’t him and I think the Sevierville event was a relative or friend of his getting arrested. He’s gone all Houdini on the po po.

I did find an interview of a few hrs ago of a TBI official, Rausch, I think.

He said, its cowardly and complicit for anybody to help the perp, yet he still could turn himself in, but sooner or later they would get him. And he concluded by saying all should act in a manner to let the justice system play out the way it is supposed to do.

So not just shoot him in DeHart on sight?

In all seriousness even if the police found him and weren't of a mind to end him regardless I find it unlikely this guy has the surrender mindset. If he's not taken down outright I'm thinking suicide.

Where is DeHart originally from? Sometimes when someone is on the run, they will try to go "home" either to seek actual aide, or just psychological comfort, or to make their last stand.

Question, the girlfriend posted a bond of $350,000. How much had to come out of pocket, $35k? Where did that money come from?

A Red Wiggler or a Kinky Beaver?

The suspect has reportedly just been apprehended in Knoxville.

 

[CubsFanTN]

They got him!

Edit: late!

 

[kiddiedoc]

Looks like several shots were fired before he was taken at a house off Linden Ave in East Knoxville.

Alive?

Alive?

Yes

[YankeeVol]

Yes

That's unfortunate

Agreed. Now he gets to live out his days high on the hog. Convicted cop killer, he will be worshipped in prison.

 

[hog88]

Yes

That's surprising.

 

[Godfatha]

Glad they got him. Glad noone else got hurt. Disappointed he is still breathing.

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

Will likely get the chair for killing a cop.

As the POS should! I'm amazed he's still breathing.

too many loopholes and ways to get out these days if you miss. best to let the courts, or jails have jurisdiction.
