In the past couple of years, we've had 2 murders which used .22ACP. The other was a rifle (AR style). It was a California nut-ball on his way through Houston and started a SWAT standoff. He shot the owner of an auto repair shop in the throat. The rest of the people he shot all survived and had "minor" injuries.
My point: I see posts, not so much here, that if the round doesn't start with a ".4", it isn't worth carrying. Even .40 S&W is ridiculed, "Short and Weak".
My carry varies from a 4" 1903 in .380ACP, to a 2.5" .380ACP to a 3" 45ACP. I like to "pocket carry". Occasionally a Sig P226 in .40 S&W, if I have "deep pockets".
I'm not suggesting carrying a .22LR, unless that is all you can carry. I'm just saying that with a trained person, that round is deadly.
It is too bad Pappas used his "power" for Evil, in the end, and not Good.
