Former LAPD officer on rampage in So Cal
http://www.cnn.com/2013/02/07/us/lap...html?sr=fbmain
(CNN) -- A former Los Angeles police officer who police say has violently threatened his former colleagues shot at least two officers early Thursday, killing one, sparking a huge manhunt in Southern California, according to authorities. Christopher Jordan Dorner, 33, is also wanted in a double slaying Sunday in Irvine, California. The California Highway Patrol issued an alert Thursday morning urging officers in several Southern California counties to be on the lookout for Dorner after the overnight shootings. Two officers in Riverside were shot, one fatally, police there confirmed to CNN. CNN affiliate KTLA reported another officer was shot in Corona, California. Irvine police identified Dorner on Wednesday as the suspect in the February 3 deaths of Keith Lawrence and Monica Quan in Irvine. Dorner also has made violent threats against other Los Angeles police officers, the agency said Wednesday. "I will bring unconventional and asymmetrical warfare to those in LAPD uniform whether on or off duty," Dorner allegedly wrote in a lengthy letter promising retribution against the department, where he worked from 2005 until 2008. An LAPD source provided the document to CNN. The letter writer claimed he was terminated for reporting excessive force by a fellow officer, and said his attacks were retribution for his termination, as well as a culture of racism and violence he says continues within the department. He called the attacks against police "a necessary evil that I do not enjoy but must partake and complete for substantial change to occur within the LAPD and reclaim my name." Los Angeles police warned people who encounter Dorner not to approach him, saying he is likely "armed and extremely dangerous." "Our department is implementing all measures possible to ensure the safety of our LAPD personnel, their families and the Los Angeles community, and will continue to do so until Dorner is apprehended and all threats have been abated," police said in a statement. CNN's Mallory Simon and Deanna Hackney contributed to this report. |

I think Listo's overstating him a bit here. Again, if this guy was that hardcore, we'd already have 3 dead officers on our hands. Instead he just winged a couple of them and ran into hiding. I have no doubt that his experience in the force and his training in the Navy will help him here. However, I don't think he'll be this scourge of South County now that the LAPD has had the chance to mobilize and respond. The time for him to do his damage was at the start of the rampage. He could've done a lot of harm before the LAPD had the opportunity to counter-attack. Instead he took one shot, did a lousy job of it and then went into hiding. I'm glad he's not hunting me, mind you. But at the same time, I don't think he's going to get anyone else either.

I’m just now catching up on this story but the report I heard around lunch was that he graduated, and served some time as a sniper. Of course that came from MSN so it may be FOS.

I'm wondering why he didn't go a more serial killer route. So far his grand revenge has killed one cop he doesn't know, two family members of someone he hates, and wounded paperboys. He'd probably see being a serial killer as dishonorable and would risk not getting his manifesto out in the public, but so far the strongest case he's making is "beware psychos." PS: he did kill one officer yes? I thought he killed one and winged another. |

LOL. I'm trying to point out the differences between him and the "normal" people you meet every day. The most dangerous thing about him is that he has the will to do this and at that he has stated that he doesn't plan to live through it. He's willing to kill, he's motivated to do it, he is armed, and he is proficient with his weapons. He has a lot of livable territory to choose from. He has a huge variety of options available to him. He could already be dead. He could be hiding out in the mountains. He could be assimilated into a SoCal gang. He could be in a different state, even a different country, by now.

he wants to clear his name on the subject of his firing. that wont happen, in his mind at least, until they apologize. he said the killings dont stop until that point and seems like a determined guy |
