Thank you APD for taking this person off the streets before more harm is done.
Hands down you have a very tough job, be safe and take care.
My the Lord Watch over each and everyone in your department.
Funny you should describe this murderer simply as “this person” yet in other articles you frequently describe less serious criminals as bottomfeeders, less than animals, scum, etc. Why are you being so nice towards this young fellow, yet always jump to more extreme insults when the perpetrator is someone less reminiscent of our Aryan law enforcers?
