Polk sheriff: Former Marine who killed 4 also 'tortured' 11-year-old to find woman who didn't exist

"3...2...1...POW."

Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd reenacted the moment he says a "mass murderer" shot and tortured an 11-year-old girl, looking for information about a "figment of his imagination."

Judd said Thursday that although the crime scene hasn't been processed fully and there are still "weeks and weeks" left in the agency's investigation, this would likely be the final update for now as authorities "build a case" against 33-year-old Bryan Riley.

He's accused of shooting and killing four people, including an infant, Sunday morning in unincorporated Lakeland. A judge earlier this week denied bond to Riley, who will remain in jail on several charges, including four counts of first-degree murder.

"These happened to be the unfortunate people he picked on," Judd said, reiterating that there was no connection between Riley and the people he confessed to killing.

The man was no marine. He may have been in the Marines but he was no marine. Let the marines have

Honestly people like this don't deserve a trial or jailtime or prison. They deserve to be 6ft under immediately. Theres no answers he can give that will even come close to explaining what he did

A lot of thing’s don’t add up !

I really hope you all down there in Florida handle the business of taking out the trash on this one.

I don't think you will have any of those "progressive" left types (no virtue to squeeze here)try to jam up your gears and attempt to save this one.

funny. anyone else hear him say the murderer had no anger issues until he spent a week at a church and came back convinced that god was talking to him. then he ends the news conference with pray to god for this family. wait a min. is that the same god that sent the killer. lol
