Allegedly another Republican pedophile. This one met his proper end.

I came across a local post that claimed that this guy was a Republican, but I can't relocate the post. If anyone wants to do a search to confirm, I would appreciate it.
LONGWOOD, Fla. — A child pornography suspect was fatally shot by a Seminole County deputy who was there to arrest him Wednesday.

Sheriff Dennis Lemma said deputies were surveilling 68-year-old Gary Guckenberger at his Longwood home to serve an arrest warrant. He said the man went out into his driveway with a walker when deputies decided to confront him.

Lemma said Guckenberger pulled a .38 revolver from his waistband and pointed it at deputies, ignoring commands to drop it.

The sheriff said Guckenberger responded to their commands with “I have to.” He said that’s when a deputy fired twice, killing the man.

Lemma said the investigation started with a tip that someone in the home was accessing child pornography. This led to a search warrant execution last Tuesday, where they seized cellphones and computers.
