"Omega Draville Bacote"

A name suited for a Hollywood star or a celebrated writer but alas, a wrong turn on the road of life leads to the dead end of a jail cell.

I'm glad they've been caught. People work hard to get the things they want in life and it's just wrong that some people think it's okay to just take what they want instead of working for them. I agree with sandhillsdogs... Good Job!!

Funny every other media outlet is showing a picture of this criminal, but the Pilot will not. They sure didn't hesitate to show the picture of the white man who had done one thing wrong, but the black man with 82 charges gets a pass on having his face shown.
