Niagara WI Shooting Suspect In Custody

Let's see, before his killing spree this Gunman crossed the border from Michigan (which HAS the death penalty) into Wisconsin which DOESN'T HAVE the death penalty. Smart, very smart.

First of all he is suspected... does not mean he is guilty, it happens every day so before everyone jumps to conclusions..

Do Not take me wrong..... this is a horrible tragedy but.... If you read about this guy, he was normal, went to iraq and came back violent and thought Iraqi's were following him in michigan. The government is pushing out soldiers with Post Tramatic Stress so that they do not have to pay for the medical. This is a story we hear every week somewhere in the country, about some soldier that didnt come back the same and shot people..... I apologize if I sound crude but I feel for the familys of the victims alot, but also in a way feel bad for the soldier that helped our country and didnt come back the same.....

sympathetic~~~

GIVE ME A FREAKIN BREAK he was a soldier in the 90's not now so he doesnt have iraqi freedom ptss.
My husband is in the military active duty and leaving this month, does that give him the right to come back and shoot up the local swimming hole???NOT
Are you from MI?? do you get the MI news?? do you have the whole story???
AND HIS MOM SAID IT WAS the divorce and not being able to see his kids that caused him to change. IM FROM MI> HAVE RELATIVES RIGHT THERE WHERE THE SHOOTINGS HAPPENED AND AS a matter of fact my family members knew 2 of the girls that were killed, their funerals are tomorrow......and my family members will be at the funeral.....

Before you go off, get YOUR story straight. How can your family know 2 of the girls that were killed when there was only one girl killed? I live 1/4 mile from the scene and it's traumatic for everyone. His mother never said he served in Iraq or overseas anywhere so we can't blame the military anyway. This is just a tragic case of someone snapping and taking innocent lives. This mother lost her son also and is likely very traumatized, let her reach for any solace she can find in these troubling times. Be nice and pray for all the victims. Also be glad that we have police officers willing to go out in the dark looking for a gunman who obviously has no problems killing people.

Pardon me for making one typo, I meant to type two of the kids that were killed, And yes my cousin does live right there in Norway MI. THE LOCAL TV 6 news did say he was in the military. What i was commenting on was the guy (sympathetic, the comment above mine) mentioned that he was in iraq and i was responding to him, so before you get your undies in a wad get your story straight too..

One more thing,
There was a lot of harm done that day, a lot of people were hurt and are still hurting. My hopes, thoughts and prayers do go out to each and every one of them!!!!!!

Mike,
Just heard of your loss. Deepest regrets for you and your family. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

He was't in iraq or anywhere near there, he was just a obsessed psycopath that wanted to kill someone, and did..........

by the way, the police sat on the roads watching for anyone to come out of the woods, if i had been in charge the dogs would have been searching for that scumbag........

if i was the deputy that saw him come out of the woods, id have said, lay down ur weapon, turn around and meet your maker, pooooow, right between the eyes, case closed, murder case solved

Capital punishment has been illegal in the U.S. State of Michigan since 1846, making Michigan's death penalty history unusual in contrast to many other States. Michigan was the first English-speaking government in the world to abolish totally the death penalty.[1][2] The Michigan State Legislature voted to do so on May 18, 1846, and this has remained in law since.[3]

be respectful of the dead. the way the situation was handled was spectactular. niagara is a small town, they did what they could. he is caught, behind bars, let him sit in jail.

I know this is way after the fact. But I do not feel sorry for anyone other than the victims. Tiffany Ann Pohlson was my niece and the most wonderful person you could have ever met. It still to this day feels like yesterday that, that sick bastard took her life from us. She was a beautiful soul that was taken from us way to early. I catch myself listening to the radio and thinking oh Tiffers would like that song. But unfortunaltry Tiffers is no longer here. Personally that sick son-of-a-bi*** can rot in hell for all I care. The trial begins March 16th and I truly beleive he will be punished, but not nearly as much as the familys of the victims are for the rest of their lives.
