ACCUSED OREGON COP KILLER MAY FACE NEEDLE

A home run hitter in life's ball park
Daniel A. Butts, 21, whose life is unofficially over, is in a spot. The Oregon meathead has been indicted by the Columbia County grand jury on nine counts of aggravated murder, five counts of attempted aggravated murder and a shitload more in the cold-blooded murder of a small town cop.
What it all adds up to is this: prosecutors want to ensure Butts gets the needle.
Cops say Butts shot to death 55-year-old Rainier, Oregon Police Chief Ralph Painter during a struggle at a stereo store January 5. According to detectives, the wild-haired headcase got the veteran cop's gun away from him and shot him.
Painter was responding to a report that a theif was trying to boost a car the Sound Authority store. Butts took lead and still has a bullet lodged near his spine.
