You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive.

 

That Kentucky thing might be very twisted. One of his deputies was coercing sex from a woman and used the judge’s chambers to do it.

There've been rumors of a reboot - stoked regularly by Walton Goggins - ever since the finale of Justified: City Primeval.

 

The whole Kentucky court shooting would make a great Vicki Lawrence sequel. And the fact that everybody in that town might be related could be the least surprising fact about the incident.

 

Five Points South hasn’t been the leading party district for a while now, but this is probably the open trap door that’s going to send it all the way to the bottom. Damn.

 

Regarding this shooting.... BPD now says that this was likely a criminal gang related targeted shooting. Several men in a car pulled up and fired into a crowd in line to enter a Hookah bar, killing the target plus three others and wounding eighteen. They were using semi-automatic pistols which had been altered by installing a "Glock switch", which converts them to fully automatic fire. There were over a hundred empty shell casings on the ground. There was another shooting last night which police say was likely a connected retaliation, a couple of more people killed.

While there are federal gun laws making the kits to convert pistols to full auto illegal, there is no such state law here. Mayor Woodfin is calling for better enforcement as well as more action on controlling firearms, but as we know, nothing is likely to happen on that front.

 

Rumor is that the lounge has racked up lots of incidents but never really faced a crackdown from the city because it is owned by an ex-Birmingham cop. And ordinarily city government has a quick hook for the business license of nightlife places it deems a nuisance.
