Rollins shot Harris one time in the back of his head; he was pronounced deceased at the scene by Escambia County EMS. Officers from the Flomaton Police Department and the Escambia County (FL) Sheriff’s Office responded to the initial call, with the the Flomaton Police Department taking the lead role in the investigation.

So sad.
A single shot to the back of the head is not “manslaughter.” It is cold-blooded murder. Sadly, our tax dollars will be used to keep this scum alive.
Life or death in prison should be this man’s only options.
Cold blooded murderer = LIFE IN PRISON
Manslaughter?
no malice or ill intent buddy? No hard feelings. Don’t take this personal or anything?
I would think if you put a gun up to the back of some one’s head, pull the trigger and it kills them that would be called Murder.
sounds like the other guy at Odoms Bar near there..Oh it was over a girl..Shot the guy in the head and walked..Well he is back in the Big House.
Ain’t right.
