Medina Shootout Episode

Just listened to this episode. Pretty pathetic to listen to grown men who are journalists sit around and talk about how this “affected” them. Why not interview the survivors of US Marshal Muir and Deputy US Marshal Cheshire? See how this incident affected them. These men were sworn law enforcement officers with an arrest warrant for Gordon Kahl. It was there duty to try to arrest him. It was an ongoing case. I was a Deputy US Marshal for 26 years and this incident was a crucial part of the history of our agency. And let me correct something that this episode seemed obsessed with. It was not about taxes. Two federal law enforcement officers were killed. It was about that. May Marshal Muir and Deputy Cheshire rest in peace. And here’s hoping Yori and Scott rot in prison forever.
