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. |

Maybe you shouldn't engage in a firefight with one hundred million well armed police personnel while standing next to a propane tank?

I'm guessing LL Cool J isn't going anywhere near the LAPD until after this is over. Hell, he should probably wait an extra month just to be safe.

There are reasons why we don't just kill suspects. I never saw the guy pull a trigger. All I heard was that two people were shot and this magical, faceless message gets blasted all over the media so there is zero question this guy is a cop killer. Shit, they could have had the guy tied up there for weeks and planned this entire thing. It's highly unlikely, but it is absolutely not impossible. Again, no matter what, the guy deserved a trial. For **** sake, Saddam Hussein got a ****ing trial. |

Well, at least not if it was actually Dorner instead of a newspaper delivery woman. For me, he's already plead guilty, so just execute him with minimal collateral damage.

After these types of crazy incidents people always complain about the media giving the suspect too much airtime. Maybe the cops finally learned (the media won't) and don't want to make the guy even more famous by giving him a national platform with cameras to go nuts on and go out in a blaze of glory.
