Suicide by cop ?
I feel for the deputies who had to end the situation with the ending of a persons life. The deputies will have guilt on their mind & heart forever, no matter what
Maybe, maybe not….
May God bless his soul.
Art, I normally tell people “don’t feed the trolls” but you managed to elicit the most coherent, grammatically correct sentence I have ever seen typed by Max Flatus. Don’t get me wrong, the content was still the ravings of a lunatic, but you definitely induced a change for the better. Kudos to you!
“…with a possible weapon…” On previous occasions when our local deputies have been called out, they’ve responded violently when reports of a “weapon” have turned out to be nothing more than common household items; they shoot first and that’s the end of it. In this case “a possible weapon” could be an educated brain. These buffoons take their lead from Alex Villanueva and he is as corrupt as they come. Things MUST change.
Wow! You were there? You saw it all? You know exactly what happened? I actually trust the law enforcement officers who were on scene and had to deal with the situation. Thank you, SCV Sheriffs!
PL Miller, maybe you should put yourself in a life or death situation with only a moments notice to kill or be killed. Our local police are doing a fantastic job with what they have to work with.
