I kind of felt bad for Jonas, if you look back he was trying to persuade Nick not to make the deal even pointing out Darby killed a little girl. Sadly Nick in his arrogance declined it. He even expressed that they made a horrible mistake making the deal. Maybe Jonas should’ve handled the case not Nick.

[@philipcearley1992]

Serves them right for letting Darby go in the first place.

[@M_D93]

@ELDEANTI Sometimes it does. Look at Dexter. He is doing a better job preventing murders than the justice system. If you watch Peacemaker, you should see his explanation on why Batman is a “Candy ass”. Wouldn’t you do the same if your family got murderer and the justice system was too lenient on them?

So a guy has been murdering numerous high profile people in unconventional ways and is by this point to be a known highly dangerous ex-cia covert killer and there isn’t a massive police presence such as SWAT, bomb disposal units, or hell even some kind of national guard presence considering Clyde was basically a national security threat with what he could do and the weapons he was using at where there is a high concentration of the people he is targeting? Nor does anyone notice a drone with missiles and a .50 cal casually moving in an empty cemetery? I liked the movie at the time but man is there a lot to of plot holes and suspension of disbelief to make it work.
