Attorneys For Brian Nichols Say He Was "Baited"

Comments 0 | Recommend 0

     Lawyers for accused courthouse gunman Brian Nichols claim deputies at the Fulton County Jail tried to "bait" him into attempting an escape so they could kill him.

    Nichols' defense attorneys have filed a motion accusing deputies of plotting a scenario that would allow them to justify killing Nichols while he was jailed on charges of killing four people in March 2005.

    Nichols was moved to the DeKalb County Jail in October 2006. He stands accused of killing a judge and three other people.
