Death-penalty Garrett Freeman After Killing Texas Game Warden Justin Hurst, Dash Cam,

**kellyhound** · #1 ● 11-23-2008, 12:25 PM

Jurors in Wharton County decided on a death-penalty sentence for 27-year-old James Garrett Freeman, who was convicted of killing Texas game warden Justin Hurst last year.

Warden Justin Hurst was shot and killed by a suspect in Wharton County following a high speed pursuit on US Route 90-A.

The suspect had fled after he was approached by another warden who suspected him of illegally hunting from the roadside.

Warden Hurst was called as back-up, and he and officers from other agencies pursued the suspect through two counties. The suspect then exchanged shots with the officers, mortally wounding Warden Hurst.

Warden Hurst was flown to a local hospital where he succumbed to his injuries in the early morning hours the following day, his 34th birthday.

Hurst had been a waterfowl biologist with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department before he entered the game warden academy in 2002 and drew an assignment to Wharton County, southwest of Houston.

He is survived by his wife, 4-month-old son, parents, and brother.

He sure is a punk ass. Whats the worst he would have got if he gave up in the beginning. Probably a slap on the wrist. Now someones missing a son. And as a result his pimply ass cheeks are going to get penis slapped by some creep in prison. Ironic surname 'Freeman' ..

Well said. He turned a fine into a murder.
I'm not in favor of the death penalty, but in a case like this I don't know if anything else would be justice.
