Cop mag dumps all 12 rounds of his clip into the chest of a crazed man. (With context)

A Maryland sheriff's deputy who fired 12 shots at a man who attacked him with a tree branch will not be charged in the man's death, Maryland prosecutors reported Monday.

Sgt. Frank Pruitt, according to prosecutors, took legal actions against Kevin Costlow, 52, the morning of Feb. 6 along a roadway in Montgomery County. The two had squared off after the deputy responded to a radio call about a motorist — Costlow — who had caused two crashes before getting out of his car and trying to attack people at the scene with what initially was reported to be a baseball bat, prosecutors said.

Family members of Costlow, a retired information technology executive, have questioned why the encounter unfolded as it did.

“Kevin Costlow was a responsible and respected family man and business leader,” their attorney, Timothy Maloney, said in a statement. “He lived an exceptional life without any violence or criminality of any kind. This is what makes the tragic events of February 6 so inexplicable to his family.”

Delete this image. I fucking hate this image. I am so fucking sick and tired of seeing this fucking image. I want to kill myself every time I see it and I swear to god if I have to see it another time I most likely will. Why do you have this here? I am so tired of opening the site only to be greeted by some fucking retard in a diaper (or whatever the fuck that is supposed to be) shoving her gross fucking feet onto the screen. My week is instantly ruined by having to witness this god-awful fucking picture. She has two images which means she has twice the likelihood of showing up as any other image. I don't understand why you made the decision to include two fucking images of her. Delete this fucking image right now. I fucking hate it. Thanks.
