Its very significant. The weight of resources are no longer in your favor, i dont care how much money you necessarily have. What theyre doing now is likely expected a not guilty plea where he will formally tell the court he has notice of all the charges against him, and they will set some date in the future in terms of when he will have to either have discovery provided to him, there likely is not going to be a Motion Schedule for the things that you would argue about what would come into evidence, thats going to be longer down the road. But the notion of a rap sheet is so significant with these different indictments, particularly because of this reason normally if somebody has charges against them, trials in the same vicinity, youre talking about maybe if they are convicted theyre going to run concurrent sentences, meaning this one will run on top of the other and the other. Its not going to be youll serve five years for this one, then ten years for another, five for the next. It will
patterson is a suspect. the man hunt underway right now. let s begin on the ground in atlanta with charles watson. hi, charles. good afternoon, gillian. at this point in this investigation, police are having folks here in the midtown area shelter in place. you can see here behind me there s heavy police presence out here. police are starting to condense this crime scene some and move it back closer to the building where the shooting is presumed to have happened. you mentioned just a few moments ago, police released the identity of a suspect, the man that police believe is behind the shooting that happened here in midtown this morning. he s identified as deon patterson. he is a 24-year-old man and police are asking folks to be on the lookout for patterson. urging the public not to approach him and call 911 instead because he is considered armed and dangerous. now, we just got an update from police a few moments ago. they said they were aware of a carjacking in the vicinity o
Thanks, joe. hold out. let s get back to former fbi special agent nicole parker. your thoughts on the fact that wral is reporting that a suspect is in custody. if that s the case, is it now time to release more information about a name and maybe it s time to take the picture done or leave it up and that benefits the investigation? you know, it s not going to hurt to keep it up if that is the person that is in custody. like your previous guest say, maybe there was a co conspirator in this. likely not. we don t know. right now the tempo is going to slow down. once the individual and the threat to so tiety and to the school has been eliminated, if that is the individual, they are in custody, law enforcement will continue to investigation feverishly. safety is number 1. now it s happened. if there s only one individual
Airport here, to hear him give remarks. i talked to an adviser who giving remarks but they did say we don t know which trump is going to show up. and that is because at times trump has been defiant when it comes to these arraignments, these indictments. at times he s been angry and frustrated. at times he s ignored it altogether and just focused on the 2024 campaign. they said he was ramped up, which we saw on the plane ride here. he was watching the media coverage, talking to his lawyers. and we saw that because of his tweets on truth social, or his posts on truth social. kind of snarky, almost making light of the fact that these were indictments. but they say that obviously that could change. and as we heard our colleague evan perez say, he seemed to be almost upset at times during his court appearance. he had his hands together. i think i heard another guest say that he seemed like he might have been humbled. i don t think we re going to see a humbled donald trump deliver remarks.
Specifically went to that building, to that floor and to those offices because of some kind of connection. i heard your prior guest say that they will be looking at his calendar, his social media to determine that. so one of the things that they ll be looking at, did he come there intending to shoot for did he come with a gun and then things just deteriorated for him and he began shooting. gillian: we know from interviews with law enforcement officials during the aftermath of shootings past that the more eyes are on the suspect, on the crime scene, the higher the likelihood that suspects will be apprehended. if that is the rule, it seems fairly likely this individual will face apprehension in the near future. this happened in the middle of atlanta in a busy working area, during a lot of people s lunch breaks. what do you say about that?
