FBI Most-Wanted Suspect Eric Frein Captured Alive
Eric Frein, 31, has been on the run evading capture for nearly seven weeks and at times, 1,000 officers were involved in the manhunt.
Frein is in custody, Pennsylvania State Police spokeswoman Connie Devens said on Thursday.
[su_center_ad]”I can confirm that we have taken Eric Frein into custody. Further information will be released at a later time. No further information will be released or confirmed at this time,” she said in an email to reporters, according to CNN.
Frein, a survivalist, is suspected in the September 12th ambush shooting that left Cpl. Bryon Dickson dead and Trooper Alex T. Douglass wounded outside the Pennsylvania State Police barracks in Blooming Grove.
Frein’s hard drive on his computer showed that he had planned the attack for years.
He has been described as having anti-government views and survivalist skills.
ABC reports that police believed Frein, from nearby Canadensis, escaped to the woods. They found two pipe bombs, an AK-47, ammunition and various food and supplies they believe belong to the suspect.
On Tuesday, police investigated a possible sighting of Frein made by a resident in Barrett Township, Trooper Connie Devens said, a spokesperson for the Pennsylvania State Police.

Lucky for him he is white, or they would have had to shoot him on the spot.

A group of kids and children. Can be used to categorize groups of kid/children ranging from preschool all the way to the end of

I heard on NPR today that the state police took him from jail to his arraignment hearing in the same car the slain trooper dove, and the handcuffs the trooper carried..
I’m sure the troopers let him know that too..:)
Anomaly 100 October 31st, 2014 at 7:46 pm
I did hear about the handcuffs. That was appropriate, IMO.
Guy Lauten October 30th, 2014 at 7:42 pm
The narcissism of these fools astounds me sometimes. Now he will come up with some “I wanted to get caught” type excuse just to keep his lofty opinion of himself intact. Then comes the media “interviews” in which he tries to espouse his hatred and warped sensibilities so the rest of us can drop what we’re doing and all say “Yes, he’s been right all along”. Amazing the depth egomania can take.

So where are all the small government 2nd amendment activists condemning this guy?
They tell us that since mainstream Muslims don’t condemn terrorists (the fact is they do), that constitutes tacit approval.
Well, the same thing applies to you NRA, TeaParty, GOP etc. . Where is your condemnation of Eric Frein?
tiredoftea October 30th, 2014 at 8:07 pm
No, he’s going to be celebrated as a misunderstood and troubled individual and not a terrorist.
tiredoftea October 30th, 2014 at 8:09 pm
One less 3%’er free to harm others. He’s no doubt a hero to the survivalist, 2A crowd. A terrorist by any other name to those of us in the reality based world.
Obewon October 30th, 2014 at 8:14 pm
Those 3%’ers never get anything correct. Far less than 3% were armed American revolutionaries against the British. Viva la France Military~!
tiredoftea October 30th, 2014 at 8:16 pm
Yeah, the only thing 3% about them is their level of intelligence. Third percentile of IQ.

Rest assured, he will never get out of prison..
I dont know if PA. has a death penalty, but if they do he will be eligible for it.

To many of your individual comments to respond to, so I will make a general comment here.
1st… Fuck this guy… He is no hero to the second amendment supporters, he is a cold blooded murderer and should rot in hell for the rest of his life. (Here is where I believe in the death penalty)
2nd… No, he is not a 3%er. Nor would they ever want this type of person. Contrary to your belief, they do are not like this person.
3rd… Neither the Tea party, NRA, or the GOP would ever want any association with him. This guy is an anti-socialist… You cant even call him a survivalist. They have more respect for human life then this asshole does.
Plain and simple, enjoy all of your little comment to poke fun at the above mentioned organizations, But as a practical point of view. He is not one of us. So enjoy your commentary…

and neither are the overwhelming majority of Muslims in the world like the murdering jihadists but that does not prevent American conservatives from flatly stating that they are.
plain and simple, as far as I am concerned, it is simply a matter of treating conservatives in the exact same manner they treat other people.
so remember these comments the next time you hear someone muttering about all Muslims being terrorists. if it is unfair to portray all conservatives by the acts of a few, why do conservatives have no problem doing it with Muslim people?
that is the point of my post in this thread.
neworleans878 October 31st, 2014 at 12:39 am
Bill Ayers, Reverend Wright and Alec Baldwin do not represent my brand of liberalism.
But the R.W. insists they represent my position.
Learned well from the R.W…no more honesty from this liberal until I see the same from the right.
Come on Pete…own him as yours…I insist.
ps…enjoy your posts. wish there were more of you on the other sde.
Pistol-Packing AKA "Susie" October 31st, 2014 at 8:47 am
You can say the same thing about how the liberal establishment sees all people with a conservative view point. Even though I am more right of center on several issues. There are issues that I am much more left of center. It does take dialogue for the two to figure it out.
And thanks, I also enjoy having dialogue and reading others view points. It helps me form a more universal opinion.

Hey, remember that black guy who shot a bunch of cops? Christopher Dorner? Yeah, they burned the house he was holed up in to the ground when they found him. He was never going to get out alive. Did I mention he was black? A broken nose for this guy? Please.
Anomaly 100 October 31st, 2014 at 7:27 am
I was thinking about him, too. In fact, the cops shot at everyone is sight because they were freaking out. Guys were wearing “Don’t Shoot, Not Dorner” T-shirts.
