LAKE WALES, Fla. ? A man set fire to two women, including a pregnant one, and shot a man who tried to help them during a robbery attempt Thursday at an insurance business, police said.

 

Leon Davis Jr., whose 30th birthday is Friday, walked into the Nationwide Insurance office shortly after 3:30 p.m. and demanded money from two female employees, Police Chief Herbert Gillis said. Davis was not satisfied with the amount of money he was given, threw gasoline on the women and set them on fire, Gillis told The Ledger of Lakeland.

 

Davis then allegedly shot Brandon Griessman, 33, in the nose after he tried to help the women. The suspect fled leading authorities on a manhunt until he turned himself in at a Polk County Sheriff's Office substation about 7 p.m.

 

Yvonne Bustamonte, 26, Jane Luciono, 23, who was six-months pregnant, were flown to Orlando hospitals in critical condition, Gillis said.

 

Luciono underwent an emergency Caesarean section delivery, Gillis told the newspaper. The condition of the baby was not immediately known.

 

"I've worked in this business for thirteen years and not seen or heard of anything like this in my career here," Capt. Troy Schulze said. "I've never seen anything come close to this, violence-wise. It was heartless, absolutely heartless, for someone to do something like this."

 

Scott Headley, the owner of the Nationwide office, said Bustamonte has worked for him for nine years, and Luciono has worked for him for two years.

 

"I can't imagine someone can do something so cruel," Headley said.

 

Griessman was expected to undergo corrective surgery.

 

Davis, an Eagle Lake city employee, was suspended from his job after a Nov. 30 arrest on larceny charges, police said. It was not known what he did for the city. Davis had been on probation a July 6 grand theft conviction, according to the Florida Department of Corrections Web site.

 

Charges had not been filed as of Thursday night, but Gillis said he expected Davis to be charged with three counts of attempted murder and arson. It was not know if Davis had an attorney.

All he wanted was money and the bad people refused to give him enough money so he was forced to burn those women, he had no choice. And the guy who tried to help the burning women should have minded his own business right?

I'd say the fact that he had gasoline in his possession is quite telling as to his motivations. I cannot think of too many cases of robbery wherein a perpetrator will bring gasoline and a gun with him.

 

This case is EXACTLY why our country should have more clauses worked into the letter of the law allowing for capitol punishment, or at the very least, life imprisonment, for violent crimes with a "cruel & unusual" nature to them.

This country is going to hell in a hand basket because of dumb ass politicians. New Jersey just abolished the death penalty even though around 85% of the population is in favor of the death penalty.

 

Aren't we supposed to have a democratic republic form of government. It sure doesn't sound like they are doing a good job of representing the population.

 

Unfortunately this is nationwide, I just used this as an example.

When we treat uncivil people with civility, we get nothing in return.

 

This is a prime example of a just cause for the death penalty.

 

I debated the death penalty on another site and I made a direct case showing how people like this demote themselves from human to animal. And they should be treated as an animal, a vicious one. Put 'em down quickly and humanely.

 

What did the guy expect? Tens of thousands of dollars to be robbed from an insurance firm? WTF?

Interesting that over 80% of people also want stricter controls over things like abortion also.

 

 

We are no longer a nation of democracy, we are a Nation of forced political correctness.

 

The liberals are ruining the Nation, it is all about "looking" right and pamparing criminals while the masses take it up the shorts.

I think I'm right in sayng that most people in the UK want a return to the death penalty. But we will never get a referendum on the issue.

 

I always thought that democracy was all about the empowerment of the people. Clearly, the UK's politicians are not democracy minded at all. Neither will we get a referendum on mass immigration, repatriation, gun ownership, or anything else of interest to the citizen.

 

No, politicians ideas of democracy, is that it concerns the empowerment of politicians, and nothing more.

Perhaps we are still a British colony at heart... status quo democracy stinks and is not democracy.

 

 

But the death penalty is not the answer, I'm afraid. Hahahahaha
