County attorney protests Richard Happ's transfer

Richard Happ, who stabbed his parents to death in 1999, was recently transferred to a different, less secure, facility, according to a Carver County Attorney’s Office press release.

Happ murdered his parents in their Waconia home with a butcher knife. His brother, David Happ, escaped the carnage and dialed 911. Richard Happ fled in a responding Carver County Sheriff’s Office squad car, resulting in a chase that ended near Lake Minnetonka.
