Motive unclear in deadly ambush of Deputy Darren Goforth

HOUSTON -- Across southeast Texas especially in Harris County, many woke up today asking the big question. What led up to the deadly shooting of Deputy Darren Goforth? The violent crime left Goforth's loved ones, law enforcement, and ordinary citizens in tears. Authorities called it a "cold blooded assassination" which seemed to be carried out at random because Deputy Goforth was a sworn officer of the law.

Yesterday, the District Attorney's office accepted capital murder charges against 30-year-old Shannon J. Miles. Sheriff Ron Hickman said they recovered the murder weapon inside his home. He said his investigators could not extract any type of information relating to a motive. Hickman went even further, saying he believes Goforth and Miles crossed paths for the very first time outside the Chevron gas station.

Yes, that's the actual headline on the KTRK Houston TV station webpage.

The motive is obvious: Murder Because White.

I hope Texans publically hang the murdering idiot.

The motive was furnished by Barry O and his merry band of race-baiters. Including Calypso Louie.

The motive is clear enough to people who think political correctness is BULLSH*T......

It was because the officer was white....

Oh gee, I don’t know. Maybe it had something to do with the continued exhortations from black “leaders” to kill white people and cops. I mean, after all, when Sarah Palin published an ad with a crosshairs on it, she was responsible for the Gabby Giffords shooting.

Motive unclear? The perp wanted to kill a cop plain and simple.

Miles will be happy to know that the Huntsville death row was once segregated for whites only, but is now fully integrated.

Comments from the article claim that the mother provided a false alibi for her son. Claiming that he was at home with her at the time. Wonder if anything will ever come of that.

A black racist pig shoots a white cop in the back and these douchebags can’t find a motive? Yikes!

It was a hate crime... part of the ‘war on cops’ that Democrats started to gin up feelings of rage in the black community.

White liberal elites won’t be dying... so they don’t give a damn if American citizens die... Remember - angry blacks prop up white liberal elites....

“Pigs in a blanket, fry em like bacon”

Anti-police chant by St Louis #BlackLivesMatter "protestors", less than 24 hours before this murder. Purely coincidental, of course. Motive still unclear. Ahem.
