Nichols shot and killed four people in court. He killed the judge, the officer, and the court reporter.
It is so sad. He was not even in handcuffs or shackels. That was not fair. He could have killed everybody.
After the shooting he ran. Then he held a girl hostage. I bet she was terrified.
Nichols went beside a car and when the lady got out he walked behind her. She could have called the police, but she didn't. The police still found him. He literally waved a white flag. He surrendered.
The lady, Ashley, who owned the car got him to surrender. She gave him a nice talk, because she believed in him. So, she got a wonderful $10,000 reward. Amazing, huh?
His daughter and wife were on Good Morning America.His daughter wanted to know if he had any other children. He had left her when she was a lot younger. She never thought he would do something like that.
What would you do if your dad was a killer?
Ashely,
Your explantion of what happened last friday was very good. If no one had heard anything about what Brian Nichols had done your detail report would be enoungh information for them to catch up. I also love how you ended your story. That question will get many minds wondering and putting thierselves in Mr. Nichols daughter's shoes. Great Story

I don't know what I've would have done if my dad was a killer. I also think it was great that the police finally caught that man.
