Sheriffs in Georgia can’t seem to hold on to their thug prisoners.
After they let this thug kill three people, escape, and kill another, you’d think they learned from a mistake that caused grief for families burying loved ones struck down by a thug who should never again see the light of day, the same mistake that became a national embarrassment and highlighted Fulton County’s dangerous, politically correct hiring policies and general incompetence.
But they haven’t. Another thug escaped. Fortunately he didn’t kill anyone; he was almost killed. From the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (use BugMeNot to bypass the annoying registration):
The inmate apparently thought he had found refuge Wednesday at a Norcross apartment a former girlfriend had listed as her address, authorities said.
Instead, Richardson was stabbed and beaten by the apartment’s residents before running into nearby woods, Kelley said….The Sheriff’s Fugitive Unit coordinated the search for Richardson with Corrections Department personnel, she said….After the stabbing, Richardson went to another Norcross residence where he was “chased out of the house. He fled on foot,” Kelley said.
Someone then called 911 to report a “suspicious person” at Jimmy Carter Boulevard and Buford Highway, she said….The Gwinnett Police Department’s Canine Unit apprehended Richardson in that area about 7 p.m., Kelley said.
Richardson, who has been in and out of the Gwinnett jail seven times since 1998, was serving two years for probation violation, according to Sheriff’s Department records….Richardson disappeared about 2 p.m. Tuesday from a 32-man detail working at the Recycling Bank of Gwinnett at 4300 Satellite Blvd. in Duluth. Three officers were guarding the inmates at the time.
The Gwinnett County sheriff better thank his lucky stars that this thug criminal has the IQ of a walnut, as do most. After escaping, what do they do? Go directly to their girlfriend’s apartment, the first place cops know to look. Bunch of idiots, the whole lot of them.
