Mail carrier David Knapp said the Christmas Eve when he was shot in the leg by a stranger on his Milwaukie route has left him with constant anxiety and the feeling he must always “watch my back.”
“Something as simple as a customer walking up from behind to give me mail, nearly set me off,” he said at the shooter’s sentencing hearing Thursday.
Knapp described testifying at the federal trial earlier this year of gunman Kevin Eugne Irvine as “excruciating” and said he wonders if Irvine will seek him out if he’s released from prison.
“I firmly believe that he will try to kill someone again if given the chance,” Knapp said, “and I hope that he receives the maximum term possible.”
