When that happened I figured that would be the last I saw of him. Nope. He was back at work about two weeks later.
I was surprised that there wasn't any apparent legal action- I figured there would be since he threatened to shoot a Madison County deputy and a SWAT team member- even though he was found to be mentally ill. And maybe there was legal action and I just wasn't privy to it- I didn't ask him about it.
Anyway- it's not the first time he has had something similar to this happen. The sad thing is based on his history it seems like this somehow could have been avoided. I'm sure he will either end up in Parchman (likely) or maybe if he is lucky Whitfield since he does have a psychiatric history. I'll be interested to find out- preliminary hearing is tomorrow at 3 PM in Starkville I believe.
As a co-worker he didn't seem like a "bad" guy at all- but he's also apparently someone that can't manage his life and he doesn't need to be out in public anymore.
Wow! Utterly speechless... thanks for sharing.
