    Either way the relatives of those that were killed will probably want their pound of flesh from him and the city.

    He might want to move to a Northern state. However, he might of had a medical emergency.

    The local judicial system has already made a mess of it. Once it gets to the state attorney level, charges are likely to be added. If they don’t apply additional charges, it’ll likely be escalated to the state appeals courts. Precedence would dictate no one kills four people and only receives a misdemeanor.

    Maybe but i doubt it , A more serious charge is fuel for the civil cases and the state will lie n cheat to keep from that happening .
