Arcan Cetin, Washington mall shooter dies in custody

by Jonn Lilyea••36

Atkron sends us a link to the news that Arcan Cetin, the Turkey-born fellow who went on a rampage with a Ruger 10/22 in a Macy’s store in Burlington, Washington last year, has been reported dead while in custody in the Snohomish County Jail as he awaited trial;

Arcan Cetin, 20, died while in custody on Sunday night, according to The Skagit County prosecuting attorney.

It was not immediately clear how Cetin died. KIRO 7 is asking whether his death was a suicide, homicide, natural causes or accidental.

The Seattle Times speculates that he hung himself in his cell last night. KING says that the prosecutor has verified that.

The Skagit County Prosecutor’s Office said Cetin was discovered hanging in his cell just before 9 p.m. The office could not immediately say why Cetin had been transferred from Skagit County.

Cetin had been forbidden to possess firearms in Washington State, but he had apparently stolen his step father’s rifle and despite the fact that openly carrying long guns in Washington is illegal, that’s what he did eventually killing four women and a man.

  2. Proggy WA will now probably have to pay a big settlement to this turd’s family…

    1. For want of a fourth felony law to dissuade him from his rampage, he was free to break the three….

  4. Apparently, this muslim didnt think about spending the rest of his life in prison as the punishnent for waging islamic jihad and establishing a muslim caliphate was worth it…

    In other countries, he would be hailed as a hero.

  6. Here’s hoping he committed suicide by hanging with his hands tied behind his back.

  7. Last thing heard in his cell.
    “Let me know if this is too tight.”

    On Second thought it could have been.
    Grrgle, grrgle, gasp.

    2. Unfortunately, the deputy who was supposed to be doing cell checks may get hung out to dry. As in other organizations, shit will flow downhill.

  10. probably as well that he took a 10-22… judging by the picture he had access to what looks like a Saiga 12 gauge which could have done some serious damage.

  13. “The office could not immediately say why Cetin had been transferred from Skagit County.”

    Srsly? BWAHAHAHAHAHA

    Cuz the other county lockup knows how to turn it’s head at the right time.

  15. Not to be contrary to what you stated Jon. But, I have seen several Pro 2nd Amendment rallies conducted in Olympia where many of the participants had there rifles at ‘sling arms’.

    As far as Arcan goes, all I can say is that as soon as I saw he was dead a huge Cheshire grin came to my face.

  16. Since I doubt any here will squeak out a tear for poor Arcan, perhaps the TAH choir will sing him a hymn.

    Now where did I put that pitch pipe?

  17. Here’s hoping his 72 or however many virgins he has been promised are twins of wideload, Maxine Waters and Nancy Pelosi.

  18. Good Riddance and now there’s one less PUNK having to be fed, clothed and housed at taxpayer expense.:D

  21. I’m sorry, am I supposed to be broken up that this fucker saved taxpayers several million dollars?

    1. Every now and then things work out for the better. This news did make for a better evening.

  24. Leave him hang until he stops breathing, then do CPR until he comes back. Then let him hang again until he stops breathing, etc. Fucker deserves to die more than once.

  27. The officer that located him the day after shooting is a real former Ranger, not a poser.
