Bank robber shot mid-heist sues county

“Interrupted mid-robbery, [serial bank robber Todd Kirkpatrick] ran from a Snohomish County sheriff’s deputy. In his attempt to escape, Kirkpatrick leveled his gun at the deputy, who shot him twice.
Now Kirkpatrick, an inmate at Clallam Bay Corrections Center, wants Snohomish County to pay him $6.3 million for his troubles.” [Everett, Wash. Herald]

  • Innocent unarmed people wrongfully injured in wrong address SWAT raids can’t get compensation.

    The only way he gets a dime is if the county caves and settles before they ever get in front of a judge.

  • Uh, no. Next case.

  • Unless it happened in Baltimore, he would have his check before even filing suit.
