I knew 2 of the 3 families affected by these deaths and this man doesn't deserve to be on the streets to ever have the opportunity to affect another family like he has these familiesLesley McIntyre (Smithsburg, 2023-04-19)

This is a clear act of murder and murderers should not be given a release.David Weiland (Smithsburg, 2023-04-19)
#434
He is a danger to society and should not be allowed around them. Setting him free will only embolden him to kill again as he will have an excuse and already got away with it once.Christopher Jordan (Hagerstown, 2023-04-20)
#435
A person should not be able to take someone's life and not be held accountable. Justice needs to be done for the innocent lives lost and their families.Lisa Quick (Smithsburg, 2023-04-20)

My husband was shot by Esquivel and shouldn’t ever walk free.Candice Michael (Boonsboro, 2023-04-20)
#439
I'm signing because some one who committed murder x3, wounded another person, fled the scene and endangered others on the road, and shot a police officer, should be held accountable for his actions. He CHOSE to go and get the gun. He CHOSE to take it in the building with the intent of killing his coworkers. The family's of the victims had no choices. They are without their loved ones forever. I would expect for someone who has such disregard for human life to have consequences for his actions. I would also expect the families of the victims to get justice for their loved ones.Kristel Green (Smithsburg, 2023-04-21)
#440
Justice needs to be served. This man took the lives of 3 people he needs to be punished. This man should never walk free among people. He has proven he doesn't have any regard for human life.If it were a judge's family member that got killed. the plea bargain wouldn't have even been a thought.
Please do not ever let this man walk free to kill again..
Deborah Griffith (Boonsboro, 2023-04-21)
#441
What this person did was calculated and done in cold blood. He should have to get mental help while in prison for the rest of his life. It is absolutely horrible that a judge will be accepting this plea. The judge needs to be remove from the bench. Please do not let this man walk free EVER!Tammy Stueve (Hagerstown, 2023-04-21)
#442
I believe these families will never truly be whole again. It’s not a life for a life they’re asking. The families are asking for this predator to be kept away from the public. He is unstable and unpredictable. A life behind bars is what’s in the best interest for everyone, not just the families of the deceased. It protects us all.Ashley Pett (Waynesboro, 2023-04-21)
#443
This isn’t right , he knew what he was doing!!Craig McCleaf (Smithsburg, 2023-04-21)
#446
This person should never be free again! He murdered 3 hard working innocent men in cold blood. He had to know what he did was wrong or else why did he try to get away. Sending prayers to the families who have lost their loved ones.Linda Winfield (Smithsburg, 2023-04-23)

My friend CJ was killed is this horrible crime and he and the other souls deserve justice! This man knew exactly what he was doing and should never be aloud out in society ever again.Jasmine Fitzwater (Hagerstown, 2023-04-23)
#449
I agree with her! I can’t believe this person is going to be set free with no prison time. No consequences for his actions. Lock his ass upJennifer Clevenger (Waynesboro, 2023-04-23)
#450
I believe this is wrong. He murdered and should be held accountable. Whether it is more or when he is better, he should still be held accountable.Peggy Heiston (Cascade, 2023-04-23)
#452
In our society today, how many times has someone been let out of prison and immediately caused more harm than the last time. To even think this person can be rehabilitated is insane!Melissa Baker (Waynesboro, 2023-04-23)

I would look to see justice doneFred Edell (Hagerstown, 2023-04-25)
#459
My niece’s husband was one of the victims and my nephew was the one he shot several times but lived. I think anybody that is capable of doing this has to be mentally insane but at the same time, he ruined so many families forever and I don’t think he should ever be released from prison.Sharon Grove (Myersville, 2023-04-26)
#460
I am outraged that this could even happen. These families need and deserve justice for their loved ones. Give him mental health treatment till he is able to stand trial not released back into society!Candi Cline (Hagerstown, 2023-04-26)
#461
He knew what he was doing, insanity bs. He needs to pay for his crimes, 34 charges and get a free ticket.Wanda Fogle (Emmitsburg, 2023-04-26)

I want the perp to go to jail.William Nigh (Smithsburg, 2023-04-26)
#465
I’m signing this because I believe once a convicted killer gets the mental help he needs, he should never be able to walk the streets a free person again. He should then finish the life sentence in Jail.Jennifer Faith (Clear Spring, 2023-04-26)

#473
If a person picks up a weapon of any kind and kills another human being we already know he is not mentally right this shouldn’t even be a factor in cases. He killed 3 people and shot a police officer there is no question it was him. He should pay for his crimesLisa Boles (Waynesboro, 2023-04-26)
#477
I am signing this because it is completely and utterly a disgrace, this lacks common sense, decency and justice. Obviously this man is mentally unstable but what murderer isn't. Such disrespect for the life of other human beings is devoid of any sense care and concern. Can we no longer see clearly the inherent evil of his man!He had enough mental capacity to plan and orchestrate mass murder. This man is no longer the problem our society is the problem, when we no longer are outraged at the loss of the innocent. He will do this again and if not others like him will be encouraged to do so, good job promoting criminality in your society, death to the innocent and decent.
Guy Nesbitt (Hagerstown, 2023-04-26)

I'm signing this because this is an outrage.. To even be having a conversation of him not being put in prison is ridiculous.. The death penalty is what he deserves..Ronnie Boyd Jr (Smithsburg, 2023-04-26)

Everyone must be held accountable for their actionsMichelle Mcferren (Waynesboro, 2023-04-26)
#480
Someone who takes another persons life, in this case 3 and could have been more, should not be free to walk among us again. He is not a law abiding citizen. His freedom should be taken away. He could very well do this again. When there is little to no punishment for crimes what message does that send to other unstable people? He needs to go to prison for life. 3 life sentences to be exact. He took 3 innocent lives.Julie Mohn (Waynesboro, 2023-04-26)
#481
This person should not be free due to his actions. He knowingly took the lives of innocent people and he should pay for his crimes.Angela Weagley (Waynesboro, 2023-04-26)

Justice is not being served if this killer is allowed to walk freely. The community and the families of the victim deserve justice. We owe them that much!!!Michael Shifler (Cascade, 2023-04-26)

Justice needs to be served for these families going through this tragedy. That man should never be allowed to walk this earth freely again.Brooke Cramblitt (Baltimore, 2023-04-26)
#485
People lost their lives at the hands of this man who chose to drive to this location with weapons to murder that is premeditated and the families of those lives lost deserve justice for the love ones lost who were just working and trying to provide for their familiesChristopher stone (Hagerstown, 2023-04-26)

CJ Minnick was my cousin. His loss will never heal in our souls. Punishment for the shooter MUST be dealt. Once again the judicial system falls short or doing what is right.Tim Johnson (Falling Waters, 2023-04-26)
#495
This is Absolutely ridiculous this person killed 3 people in an officer but yet my cousin Easton Blickenstaff was committed of 1st degree murder for being a driver Of a shooting knowing that the other person in the car Jason admitted that he was the one that shot and killed The victim but yet my cousin Easton Blickenstaff was only the driver and is doing life in jail. Please make that make sense Washington County is one of the worst place to ever live in and the Cops and Justice system is bs. It is not fair or anything but they're gonna let this monster walk. Please make it make sense.Kayla Blickenstaff (Harrisburg, 2023-04-26)

#508
While I am fully aware that mental illness is a huge issue in our country, it must not be allowed to be used as an excuse for this level of violence. I have a sibling doing 9 years in prison for a drug offense, and I'm fine with that. Recently, a local man was sentenced to 40 years for stabbing ans killing 1 person. This man certainly shouldn't be punished with a slap for killing 3.Angie Johnson (Myersville, 2023-04-26)

I am signing because he should be held responsible for what he did!! He killed 3 peopleLaurie Shifler (Cascade, 2023-04-26)
#513
Having been loosely involved with this incident and from the community in which it occurred I saw first hand the devastation the incident and the deaths had on the people involved and their families. It’s outrageous that this individual would have the chance to be released. The victims he murderer do not get another chance at life, nor should he. This person brought fear and tragedy to an otherwise quiet town.Carley B (Waynesboro, 2023-04-26)

Our justice system needs to put a stop to this. This piece of …. Killed three innocent people. Mark I knew from years ago and was a very nice guy. Have not seen him in many years but that doesn’t matter and my husband spoke to him shortly before his passing. I also worked closely with another of victim's mother at a local hospital. This plea is not acceptable. DisgustingMary Beaver (Waynesboro, 2023-04-26)

#542
He murdered 3 people and then shot a police officer. He should be behind bars the rest of his life. My cousin was one of the other troopers there in the shoot out as well. This man needs to pay. This needs to have a whole lot more than a slap in the wrist. This man destroyed families. He took away fathers, sons, brothers, uncles .... he needs to pay for what he did.Leah Taylor Barnes (Smithsburg, 2023-04-26)
#543
I'm singing because I feel that justice needs to be done. If we don't stop letting people off for killing people because they did not like something and then want to say they have a mental issue. If you know you have mental issues then see a doctor not go kill love ones to get help. Our loved ones dieded they are not going to be able to be good and come back so why should he be a loud to be free. Letting him go is just going to show others they can get away with killing people's loved ones.Jackie Jordan (Middletown md, 2023-04-26)

This person should be held accountable for the atrocities that he committed.Rose Jones (Hagerstown, 2023-04-26)

3 lives were taken way to soon. How is that justice for the family of the loved ones left behind. He was slap on the hand when he brought weapons to high school. If he gets out to walk free that’s showing him and others there is no consequences for actions.Carrie Rejonis (Smithsburg, 2023-04-26)

#558
I don't believe in insanity as a defense and certainly not. Not crimi ally responsible.He knew right from wrong and he knew what he was doing. He needs to do life without parole. It's too bad they cheated to get the death penalty thrown out. His actions warrent that punishment. Ertainly not to be treated as a victim.

This is UNJUST!Courtnay Mirch (Williamsport, 2023-04-26)
#582
This man clearly thought about what he was about to do. He loaded up the guns in his car prior to driving to work, drove to work, worked for hours, then walked to his car to get a gun at break time , walked back into the machine shop, where he killed three men and reloaded his weapon. He even had the forethought to get in his car and run eventually shooting a police officer in the process. This isn’t schizophrenia, this is guilt.Sharon Carson (Bunker Hill, 2023-04-26)
#583
This is absolutely unbelievable that this man should ever be allowed to be free after gunning down 4 people. At the most he needs go to trial, face what he did and to whom he did itDenise Wallech (Hagerstown, 2023-04-26)

We cannot let a killer walk free He killed 3 innocent people And isn't being held criminally responsible This isn't okay And we're not going to stand for itBonnie Hanna (Falling Waters, 2023-04-26)
#595
I fear for our community if the individual responsible for these heinous acts of EVER free to walk among us. I am extremely compassionate to mental health and it’s issues, however, in this case premeditation and a plan to escape, in my opinion shows mental health did not cause this, but Intent with knowledge of wrong doing did. Three families will never see their loved ones again. Children lost their fathers. Spouses/significant others lost their life partners. This is unspeakable and if the man responsible for the senseless act of violence walks without criminal charge, we are giving the public the view that this behavior is acceptable and will be tolerated.Bethany Fletcher (Martinsburg, 2023-04-26)
