If you heard about Tyler Brown, the maniac who went on a shooting spree in Cambridge, MA on Monday, you won’t be surprised to learn about his background.
Via Daily Wire:
A man accused of randomly shooting at cars in Massachusetts has been identified as a career criminal with a previous conviction for attempting to murder a Boston police officer. The suspect was out on the streets thanks to a soft sentence back in 2021.
Two people were seriously injured, for which we can thank the moonbats running the justice system, who have plenty of compassion for career criminals of color like Brown but none for their many victims.
Back in 2021, a judge gave Brown a much lighter sentence than requested by prosecutors after he was convicted of armed assault with intent to murder and attempted assault and battery by means of discharging a firearm after he opened fire on several Boston police officers back in 2020.
Brown fired 13 shots at the police. Yet just a few years later he was running around loose, predictably shooting at people again.
Suffolk Superior Court Judge Janet Sanders sentenced Brown to just five to six years in prison, about half the 10-12 years requested by prosecutors.
As with most violent crime, Brown is repeat offender. He had previous convictions for assault and battery with a knife and witness intimidation.
Democrats will be delighted to note that a gun was used in his most recent crimes, providing them with further evidence that law-abiding citizens must be disarmed. However, an armed citizen helped stop him.
Shocking new video shows a gunman opening fire indiscriminately on Memorial Drive in Cambridge. Police say there is no current threat to the public but the incident has shut down the usually busy road for hours on Monday afternoon. pic.twitter.com/kPkRgUdsSf
