The lengthy manhunt has upended life in this usually tranquil corner of the Pocono Mountains, with unannounced and indefinite roadblocks and a "shelter in place" directive that prevented residents from leaving their houses for more than 24 hours at one point. Those who weren't already home could not return.

Residents say they support police in the search for Frein, but patience is wearing thin. "Families are getting separated," said Adam Christmann, who has been kept from his home at least twice in the past few days.

High school student Kendall Lewczak left home at 7 a.m. Friday to go to work with her mom, since classes had been canceled because of the manhunt. They came back in the late afternoon to find access to their street blocked off.

"We spent the night over on the bridge sleeping in the car waiting, and hoping, that we could get home," Lewczak said. Authorities insist residents have been able to get escorts to their homes in emergencies, such as to retrieve medication. But some residents said elderly relatives have been left unattended and pets unfed.

One attorney accused police of violating residents' rights, and urged anyone who felt aggrieved to contact him.[color="Red"] "Just because one of their brethren was murdered does not give them a right to violate YOUR Rights," Joshua Prince of Bechtelsville wrote on his firm's website.

Fuckin' A, it doesn't.

Prince told The Associated Press on Wednesday that one resident told him he was kept away from his house for days, and returned home Tuesday night to find [color="Red"]his dogs had eliminated all over the property.

Hey - dog shit happens....

And Ralph Megliola, chairman of the Barrett Township Board of Supervisors, said most residents he's spoken with believe police are "doing the best job they can" under difficult circumstances. "Most of them understand," he said. "They'd rather not be in their houses if there's a murderer in their backyard."

Good boy, Ralphie. Santa might just bring you that Red Rider this Christmas....
