Completely mind boggling !

Apart from the fact that he had an involuntary commitment, what about the fact that he fired two rounds at his girlfriend and the dude in bed with her ? Isn't that attempted murder or at least aggravated assault ? Sounds like he was never charged with anything, just allowed to resign and then pop up at another department.

I would say Ligonier is damn lucky he never shot anyone while on duty. That would have been a doozy of a lawsuit.

I think what is disturbing is he fired 2 shots and missed.

Maybe he trained with NYPD!

Maybe he trained with NYPD!

Then he would have fired 18 times and wounded 9 bystanders.
