According to BBC, after 48 days of searching for the elusive suspect, Eric Frein, police arrested him at an abandoned airport hangar. When he was arrested, pictures were released to the media. The images showed Frein with a broken, bloodied, and swollen nose, bruises, and a cut above his eye. Eric Frein had been accused of opening fire on two police officers in front of a police barrack on September 12 of this year (2014), killing Cpl. Bryon Dickson and putting the other in critical condition. Hundreds of police were involved in the search for the one "survivalist," as many came to know him. When he was finally caught, he was restrained with the handcuffs of Cpl. Dickson. Some would call this poetic justice and I agree with them. The prosecutor in the trial has said that he is seeking the death penalty for Frein. It will most likely be difficult for Frein to get himself out of the situation he has dug himself into, as he did evade arrest, fire at police in multiple gunfights, and he faces first-degree murder and two counts of possession of weapons of mass destruction. Eric Frein is a terrible man who deserves any of the punishments he gets, even death.
