This incident can be directly attributed to the the US Marshal Service's mentality/requirement that both Transport Officers be armed rather than only arming one, so the other has no weapon when in contact with any inmate. The Florida Department of Corrections subscribes to the policy of only one armed (firearm)officer on transport. I personally feel this is a wise policy which has prevented this type of incident. The unarmed officer can carry a less-tha-lethal weapon; i.e., OC, ERD, etc.

I have delivered to that place many times, the 'security' looks like a joke. Glad this turned out this way and not the other way around.

Good Shooting, best way I know to save our tax dollars. Wish they would kill more of them, especially those with criminal records longer than my arm.
