Florida Police Shot Suspected Cop Killer 68 Times

Lloyd Briggs, perhaps noting that I frequently go into the archives for good stuff, sent me this feel-good story from Sunday , October 01, 2006 (LAKELAND, Fla. )  So good that the perp, one Angilo Freeland, has his own Wikipedia entry. Lloyd's summary. “ The deputy was shot eight times, including once behind his right ear at close range. Another deputy was wounded and a police dog killed.  A statewide manhunt ensued.  The low-life was found hiding in a  wooded area with his gun. SWAT team officers fired and hit the guy 68 times.  Naturally, the media asked why they shot him 68 times.  Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd, told the Orlando Sentinel:  "That's all the bullets we had!" ”
