Boston cop killer walks free
Boston Herald ^ | May 16, 2009 | Jessica Fargen

Posted on 05/16/2009 8:26:07 AM PDT by ConservativeStatement

The cop killer who took the life of a Boston police officer walked out of prison a free man yesterday after just 15 years behind bars, leaving the family of Thomas F. Rose Sr. “sickened,” a family friend says.

Rose, a dad of three, was 42 when he was shot and killed by Terrell Muhammad during a struggle inside the Government Center police station in 1993. Muhammad, in an escape attempt, grabbed Rose’s gun and shot him in the chest. He was sentenced to 26 to 30 years in prison for manslaughter, but served only 15 years.

I’m sure his days of doin’ wrong are behind him, and he’s been turned into an upstandin’ citizen now.

Manslaughter? Isn’t that murder? Manslaughter is when you are not meaning to kill someone. Obviously getting shot in the chest would kill someone.

Now,if the cop was black and the killer was white he would have done life (which is exactly how it should be).

The guys who let him go are the same guys who now tell us that it’s OK if the Gitmo prisoners come to the US because we’ll never let them out of jail.

I thought that "manslaughter" was when there was no "premeditation".But I ain't no lawyer so I surely could be wrong.

We are becoming an ultra-corrupt African Communist dictatorship and Obama is or Robert Mugambe.

Family members who were registered for notification were informed of Muhammad’s release....

If I was a member of the family I would have been waiting at the gate with a Smith & Wesson .45 cal.

I'm guessing his freedom is temporary. This was just a short interruption in his chosen “career”.

Countdown begins for when this puke re-offends. Wonder how many more people he will kill before Massachusetts does anything about him.

The perp didn't kill he cop, the cop's gun did. Everything would have been OK if the cop hadn't had a gun, which should have been banned in the first place. And the perp wouldn't have been in jail anyway were it not for our racist, oppressive society, which didn't give the perp a free house, car, health care, food, and a government job. All is well if you learn to think like a Liberal.
