I'm sure that most of us have heard about Eric Frein and the situation in the Pocono Mountains.

If not, then here is a news article that details the story of this troubled person.

Seventeen days ago, Eric Frein ambushed a Pennsylvania State Police barracks, killing a trooper and wounding another. He then fled to the forests of the Pocono Mountains, where he currently continues to elude law enforcement officials. Some people have called his act 'courageous', others have called it 'cowardly.' Either way, what he has done has permanently shattered the lives of the family of the police officer that he killed.

My questions are:

-What could be a possible motive(s) for a person to harbor anger towards someone, which becomes so intense that it motivates that individual to murder his enemy?

-How is it possible for one man to elude hundreds of police officers from finding him?

-How can we prevent another situation like this from happening again?
