Police lined up for a mile with black badges and news crews. Richard Corban was a high school bully – turned bully-with-a-badge

―That moron broke down the door and got shot in the head, which is what happens when you break down enough doors.
Something is wrong with the surprise and the fanfare –
and with jailing the frightened shooter who ―”had a gun”
too.
