Maybe he feels sympathy for these two lovebirds, who just wanted to be together.
Are you confusing Rita Cosby with Zogby!!! tee hee
Actually they should have shot the b@$#@r#$ dead and saved the taxpoayers the cost of a trial and their incarceration.
Does Tennessee have the death penalty - oh excuse me, I forgot - Breyer or Stevens or one of those old fools have already spoken about their intent to kill the death penalty.
Hmmm, makes sense to me, yeah.

"the police were tipped off..."
They were tipped off by a cab driver from what I heard on the radio this morning.
Wise decision when on the lam, because there's nothing about a 100-mile cab ride that would raise anyone's eyebrows or draw attention to oneself in any way...
The taxi driver is the one who notified authorities.
He had plenty of time to memorize their faces. I wonder at what point he realized his fares were a couple of wanted killers? Before or after dropping them off?
If it was before, he's got some guts.
Yes. Apparently several people made the same observation and the posts were being posted fast and furiously. ;-)
I used to live in that neighborhood and hang out at the Al Rosa (and a few other neighborhood establishments). Seeing the neighborhood now makes me very glad that I live far away from there these days.
Drat! Missed another one!
Did the moonbat have anything interesting to say, or just the usual cat box filler?
Hope that couple of days of bloody flight was worth killing an innocent member of law enforcement just doing his job.
We do have the death penalty, and we use it.
They committed the crime in Tennessee. They'll be extradited from Ohio to TN, so Ohio law won't come into play here.
Good.
Too close to home...........but I figured they were headed up this way.
I'd rather share my bed with Condi Rice or Lauren Green anyday than with Hillery Clinton, Jane Fonda, etc.
Besides, whoever somebody wants to marry is their own business.
"Monkeyman is indeed a 'monkey'".
Normally I'd call someone like you a racist d!ckhead, but I won't waste my breath....
What has happened to Rita's voice. Very faint and even more raspy.
So Bonnie and Clyde got caught because they were less annoying than Amway people!
Snippets: Mike Wagers, a driver for Community Yellow Cab, based in Newport, Ky., said he had no idea he was transporting Jennifer Hyatte and her husband, George, until after he returned to the Cincinnati area on Wednesday.
Wagers said he was called to pick up the Hyattes at about 10:30 a.m. in the Cincinnati suburb of Erlanger, Ky. The couple paid him $200 at the start of the journey for what was supposed to be a $185 cab ride and said they needed the ride because their vehicle was involved in a crash the previous day, he said.
"I didn't have a clue about that all this was going on until I got back (home)," Wagers said.
The six-year cab driver said the couple told him they were from Virginia, worked for Amway and needed the ride to the motel so the two could attend a conference in Columbus. Wagers said he did not know the two were wanted criminals until after his shift had ended and he was at his apartment playing a video game.
Wagers said a friend called him and said that the Hyattes' van was found at the Erlanger Econo Lodge and advised him to call police.
"When I was told the police department and I turned on the news and saw (Jennifer Hyatte's) picture, I don't even know what I was feeling," Wagers said. "It was more of shock and disbelief because I just can't believe I was involved in something like this."
Wagers said Jennifer Hyatte looked different than she did on television news reports because he thought she colored her hair jet black.
Wagers said he called Erlanger police who immediately put him into contact with the U.S. Marshals Office. The Columbus Division of Police then called Wagers before marshals came to his house and interviewed him. Wagers said Columbus police called him later about a half-hour later and said the Hyattes were in custody.
