Father of deputy shooting suspect says it 'was a monster' who shot Deputy Pickett

6 years ago

The father of a man accused of shooting a Boone County deputy says his son's remorseless attitude makes him a "monster" he will pay for what he did. Robert Baumgardt said he was eating lunch when he heard that Deputy Jacob Pickett had been shot. “We said a prayer for the officer,” said Robert. He spent the day waiting, just like the rest of the community, to find out more details about what had happened. It wasn’t until later that evening that he found out his son, Anthony, was being named the shooter.
