Eric Frein, 31, was captured on Thursday by US marshals in an abandoned plane hangar, ending a lengthy and tense manhunt. It followed seven weeks of tension and turmoil as authorities at times closed schools, cancelled outdoor events and blockaded roads.and that the cops in California set the cabin that Christopher Dornan was in on fire and then watched it burn to the ground.
To be fair(ish) about it, the cops in California do have a bit of a track record of "accidentally" setting the hideouts of criminals on fire and then watching them burn to death.

That they do...
My guess is that the hangar wasn't flammable enough for them to do that to Frein, or he'd be a crispy critter right now.
The prosecutor says he's going for the death penalty, but we all know what'll happen -- Frein will plead guilty in exchange for life without parole. Hope he enjoys his stay in Club Fed -- or rather, Club SuperMax, since that's where cop killers end up.
I can imagine that after 'Ferguson' more than a few roll calls ended with "and don't make us look like the dumb fuks in Missouri".
Except I don't think the Ca/Dorner cops got the same kind of reminder.
