Tyler Brown, 46, began "firing erratically" at vehicles on the busy Cambridge roadway around 1:30 p.m., seriously injuring two men in their respective cars, according to Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan. She said Brown ultimately fired more than 50 rounds with the "assault-style rifle" before he was confronted by a Massachusetts State Police trooper and an armed civilian, whom Ryan described as a Marine veteran with a license to carry.

In his nearly 300-page decision released Tuesday, Justice Clayton Conlan also noted that the actions or inactions of the Children's Aid Society (CAS) had "zero to do" with the guilt or innocence of Hamber and Cooney, who'd been trying to adopt the boys for years.

"We are focusing on individualized specific treatment, so people are moving away from the criminal justice system completely," said Deanna Logan, director of the Mayor's Office of Criminal Justice.

Justice Neil Gorsuch wrote that the First Amendment envisions the United States as a rich and complex place where all enjoy the freedom to think as you will and to speak as you think. The First Amendment is no word game. And the rights it protects cannot be renamed away or their protections nullified by mere labels.

This defendant walked among us play-acting as a normal suburban dad. When, in reality, all along he was obsessively targeting innocent women for death. He thought that by killing them, he could silence them forever and get away with murder. But he was wrong.
