Henry County man charged in murder at Springville boat ramp

A Henry County man has been charged with the Saturday murder of a Jackson man at a Springville-area boat ramp.

The body of Ronald J. Walker, 39, was found at the Broadview Road ramp east of Springville by Deputy Billy Smith of the Henry County Sheriff’s Department. His accused killer, James D. Haynes, 72, of 88 Darrell Drive east of Springville, was arrested at his home for first-degree murder by investigator Gary Vandiver of the department’s Criminal Investigation Division early Sunday. According to the report, Walker was visiting the lake in the company of family members when the incident occurred.

Walker was backing a white Lincoln Navigator and boat trailer down the ramp around 7 p.m. when Haynes walked up to the driver’s side and began to confront him.

Witnesses said Haynes accused Walker of shooting his dog. Walker stepped out of the vehicle, and the two began what officers called “a verbal disagreement.”

Haynes then allegedly pulled out a gun, shooting Walker twice. After Walker collapsed on the ground, Haynes fired another round into the victim’s head.

1. Another one...

in which I have to ask, what laws would prevent this from happening. If you have an idea, I'm all ears.

[MrBenchley]

2. Oh yeah...

Those are the kind of idiots the Party should be trying to win over....NOT!

[Romulus]

3. the victim was a CCW holder

fwiw. Apparently he decided not to carry that day. Much discussion over on Glocktalk

[CO Liberal]

4. Anyone Know About the Shooter???

Was he a CCW holder?

[MrBenchley]

5. Funny...the CCW rationale was supposed to be

...that murders like this would be prevented beccause the perpetrator would be paralyzed with fear over the uncertainty that the potential victim might be packing heat.

7. That's right...

...every RKBA entusiast that I know said all crime in the country would end if only we had CCW. :puke:

[MrBenchley]

9. Gee, there was a whole bullshit study

that said "More guns = less crime" but that turned out to be a lie by a crackpot hired by the gun industry.

As it turned out, more guns = more crime, as pretty much every sane person knew.

[Romulus]

10. "more guns = more crime"

It has yet to be shown that there are "more (legally owned) guns."

Crime has generally been on the decline, except for the last year.

We do not need another circle-jerk thread on this issue. Move along, folks.

[MrBenchley]

14. More guns = more crime

And I'll bet you'd just as soon it wasn't discussed yet again how the gun lobby deliberately lied with Lott's crackpot study....

[RoeBear]

11. It was...

...'more guns = less crime'. Nobody ever said it would be 'more guns = no crime'. Where is your proof of more guns = more crime?

[MrBenchley]

15. Posted it several times alrready, roe...

As you well know.....

By the way, when are YOU going to explain why your proof of what DEMOCRATS said turned out to be a pile of tired crap from Zach Wamp (hahahahaha) and some NRA asswipe?

[RoeBear]

6. And they would have been...

...just as dead without the gun being available.(TM)

Sick twisted people will always find ways to carry out their sick twisted schemes.(TM)

(This one managed to manufacture his own murder weapon)

[Romulus]

sometimes the schemes don't exactly work out

oh, those crazy Ozzies . . .

Edited to add:what happenened to this post's number? :freak:

12. Let's see what happens,,,

...when I reply to it.

13. Some kind of...

...glitch in the system.

8. You Have More of a Chance Fighting Off a Knife-Wielding Attacker....
