Convicted felon who shot dead newlyweds in sports bar admits he killed them for less than $150
The convicted felon who was detained in connection to the shooting deaths of Wisconsin newlyweds inside a sports bar has admitted to killing them to rob them of a paltry sum — taking off with less than $150 from the cash drawer, police said.
Thomas Routt Jr., 57, was charged with two counts of first-degree intentional homicide in the Feb. 1 shooting deaths of Gina Weingart, 37, and her husband, Emerson Weingart, 33, Elkhorn police said Friday.
The parolee with a long rap sheet told investigators that he opened fire at the Sports Page Bar, where Gina worked, intending to rob the establishment — and that he swiped between $120 and $140 from a cash drawer before fleeing in his vehicle to his home, police said.

How many more billion tons of evidence do people require before they wake up to the very real danger of electing a democrat into office?
If anything is worth the death penalty, this is.
Why would he shoot people who were already dead?
According to the article, because of his previous convictions he was “barred from possessing firearms.” So can someone please explain to me how this happened????
What happened is that this is the Democrats plan for gun control. By keeping the violent criminals on the streets shooting people, hoping to gaslight the public into believing that gun control is the solution.
People were concocting elaborate plots involving old boy/girl friends.
People think they are the second coming of Hercule Poirot.
Probably not.
Wisconsin doesn’t have the death penalty
The far-left RAT Aiding And Abetting Felon Warriors Club thought they had a good idea when they decided to let evil “loved ones” out of all of our prisons. The bastards were in there for a reason. NO MORE THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS, the politicians must do something about all this released parolee violence. Break out the friggin’ common sense.

I agree. It’s too bad New York ditched it.
I meant to say it’s too bad Wisconsin ditched the death penalty. My mistake.
Another thug who should die
Thanks for posting. Thanks for the emphasis that it was EVER’S DA that freed this monster in the first place!
*BUMP*
Yep, I saw that too. Headlines today - LOL.
“Wisconsin doesn’t have the death penalty...”
But we have very, VERY good SuperMax Prisons. One hour a day out of your cell in the exercise yard. If you earn it.
It’s pretty much Solitary Confinement. Forever. And, I can live with that. :)

*GASP*
That is FANTASTIC! Thanks! Local Socialist Media is IGNORING this.
Clarification:
I meant that the Socialist Media is glossing over the FACT that is was Evers’ appointed DA that freed this scumbag.
I knew the guy had been charged. Now - can we charge the DA? That would be SWEET!
