Fool me once, shamus on you. Fool me twice, shamus on me. Yep, the infamous Shamus Patton who shot nine people in downtown Indianapolis during the 2010 Black Expo was arrested by IMPD Tuesday night following a high speed chase with police. According to the Star, he was sentenced to eight years in prison for the shootings, less than a year for each shooting victim despite the sentencing judge's description of his crimes as "absolutely horrendous." Yet he was somehow released early into some useless community transition program. And you wonder why the streets aren't safe. UPDATE: IMPD Chief Rick Hite tells the Star he was disturbed by Patton's early release and the lack of police notification of his early release. Hite says that Patton was not only violating the term of his work release at the time of his arrest but was also found to have in his possession a 9 mm handgun with an extended magazine with 30 rounds in it.
