So many things about this story don't make sense.

First off, we know court officers always hold people hostage and demand ransom 🤦‍♂️

"The calls turned from 'I'm an officer in the court' to 'We have this subject hostage, this is a ransom demand.'"

The second one is that he's charged with three counts of murder, when he only killed on person, and thirdly he could be held for 15 years in prison or a 15 grand fine. That's a big difference.
