The escape convict was killed in a shootout with law enforcement,

but before Lopez shot and killed a man and his four grandchildren at cabin near San Antonio Tx. Then Lopez stole the man’s pickup and took off, which ended in Lopez being killed. Lopez has been on the run for about a month after escaping from his shackles and stabbed a prison bus driver and took off.

The story from The Beast.

This is another mass murder that Governor Abbott will sweep up the rug?

There's this guy, and then that woman who killed the cyclist...she's been on the run for three weeks.

No one has posted about it here, but it's a big story in the cycling community.

in any way to any current topic or discussion. Just a garden variety thug/killer. There were innocent deaths. Other than that ...

I don't think this will make a dent on any election.

Lopez was just carrying out his God-given right to have a gun.

A criminal? A killer?

That has nothing to do with 'God-given'.
