We’re becoming a nation of criminals.

According to a New York Post report, Tennessean and father of three Christopher Wright was shot and killed last week while on his way to attend his high school reunion.

Wright was murdered by career criminal Darryl “Too Tall” Jones who has 66 prior arrests.

From The New York Post:

Surveillance of the incident shows Wright, a father of three, including an 8-week-old baby, talking to Roberts, 57, and another man before walking away.

Wright then turns around to say something to the two men, with Roberts reacting by walking up to him and firing his gun at Wright’s head, police said.

Wright was rushed to a nearby hospital, where he died.

Robert quickly fled, but was captured by police the following day in a coordinated search with the US Marshals Service and the ATF.

Tennessee Senator Marsha Blackburn reacted on X, calling for a return to law and order for a country that is spiraling deeper and deeper into a crime crisis.

“Heartbroken to learn that a TN businessman and father of 3 was shot and killed in Chattanooga. The person who took his life had 66 prior arrests — a career criminal. We need to restore law and order and prosecute violent criminals.”
