Fugitive Holding Newlyweds Caught Napping

Pair gave Colo. suspect blankets, pillow; fled when he dozed

Share

(Newser) – A fugitive who’d dodged the law for days was nabbed when he fell asleep after taking a pair of newlyweds hostage in Kansas, AP reports. The couple gave the escaped con pillows and blankets and slipped out unharmed after he dozed off. Now, he’s set to return to Colorado to be charged in a motel murder.

Jesse Dennis Dimmick, armed with a pocket knife, shoved his way into the couple's home after crashing a car, said family members. “They didn't know where he came from," said a relative. The newlyweds managed to text-message relatives after Dimmick barged in. He is also suspected in burglaries in Colorado, North Carolina, and Louisiana.

To bad some cop didn't pop a cap on this a$$clown when he attempted to "escape", now more money wasted housing a violent doomed to re offend a$$hole. This one as many others needs an extended dirt nap, he has proven he isn't capable of changing and being rehabilitated... Now, hows that for a reaction from the Left wing. I have no use for a violent person and I myself have taken life in time of war.. this one loves the violence and that love affair will cost an innocent again in the future Reply

No Robert, I sound like someone who has first hand knowledge of how these jerks act and what they do. This one likes to frighten and take by force, not everyone can be healed by the magical stay in an institution where they randomly rape the weak. This one is a predator and I just hope that you or one you love never encounters such an animal because you will fall off your sweet little pedestal you seem to have parked your self righteous sound bite grabbing a$$ on as you routinely pass judgment with what appears to be a total knowledge of live based on a freaking fairy tail. You ever have one of these bastards break out of a prison and then rape and murder your 11 year old daughter and see hope the fuck you feel and then dear Robert climb back on that self righteous little perch...I got news for you, kiss the cheek of your dead child, a sister, a Mom who died at the hand of an animal like this and you may yet wake up and discover that the world isn't a rosey little post card and when you attempt to be a good person that makes a perfect place for an asshole like this to come take a dump on your entire life...As per Christian? Sorry to disappoint, I gave that lie up when I saw the mutilated body of my daughter the rapist had sliced into pieces so fuck you very much Robert, now go give a sound bite on something you fucking know about...Try to actually live a live before you so passively judge someone or their true feelings Robert, you may yet discover life3 beyond books and a keyboard...Let me know next time you want to push buttons because I can handle it as well as all you can find to give

Robert, looks like you forgot some of us that post here actually have experienced life in manners you can't fathom, I think you should perhaps know who or what you so keenly post your b/s about before you stick something out that might get knocked off. Just a thought you might consider in that swollen thing you call an ego? But what do I know, I am just one of those that was used as a target while you sat home thinking you know all the fckin answers

@ dada, the man makes a good point Robert D, this guy has already murdered after escaping a prision does he have to come kill someone you know before you think something drastic needs to happen? I wish I could live in such a wonderful little world like you got going on because the real world doesn't work like that Dude. This guy is a predatory animal, if he had not been exhausted and hurt when he got to that house you very well could be reading about a young couple murdered by a asshole some guard failed to watch properly. I know you want to blame his childhood, a bad old man who kicked his a$$ or a mom who didn't breast feed but I got news for you, some folks are just bad medicine and they like to make people hurt bad, those types need to die, prisons aer to full and it hasb't changed a damn one of them yet. A couple may have got scared to go back so they are a bit more sneaky but animals that take a life don't need a 2nd, 3rd or 4th chance. They get one chance to make things right and they stick that in your face when they break out and commit murder then take hostages? Kill their ass and be done with the garbage, less garbage then a cleaner world. I ton of us who live in the real world would do it a little different than holding hands, btw, you toss that "Christian" remark like it might be a bad thing, well brainiac not everyone hates themselves so badly they can't imagine life being just an accident. I may not run to a church but I got enough going on I do not think all of life is some sort of accident so in your uptight holier than thou attitude placing yourself as superior above others who think differently you actually prove they are indeed superior as they quietly go about their lives and allow some pig headed know it all like you to spout off your ignorance and they walk away smiling. You do indeed need a reality check RD you need one badly
