This is the report that Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik has been dreading since the tragic event on Saturday January 8.
The sheriff has been editorializing and politicizing the event since he took the podium to report on the incident. His blaming of radio personalities and bloggers is a pre-emptive strike because Mr. Dupnik knows this tragedy lays at his feet and his office. Six people died on his watch and he could have prevented it. He needs to step up and start apologizing to the families of the victims instead of spinning this event to serve his own political agenda.
Jared Loughner, pronounced by the Sheriff as Lock-ner, saying it was the Polish pronunciation. Of course he meant Scott or Irish but that isn’t the point. The point is he and his office have had previous contact with the alleged assailant in the past and that is how he knows how to pronounce the name.
Jared Loughner has been making death threats by phone to many people in Pima County including staff of Pima Community College, radio personalities and local bloggers. When Pima County Sheriff’s Office was informed, his deputies assured the victims that he was being well managed by the mental health system. It was also suggested that further pressing of charges would be unnecessary and probably cause more problems than it solved as Jared Loughner has a family member that works for Pima County. Amy Loughner is a Natural Resource specialist for the Pima County Parks and Recreation. My sympathies and my heart goes out to her and the rest of Mr. Loughner’s family. This tragedy must be tearing them up inside wondering if they had done the right things in trying to manage Jared’s obvious mental instability.
Every victim of his threats previously must also be wondering if this tragedy could have been prevented if they had been more aggressive in pursuing charges against Mr. Loughner. Perhaps with a felony conviction he would never have been able to lawfully by the Glock 9mm Model 19 that he used to strike down the lives of six people and decimate 14 more.
This was not an act of politics. This was an act of a mentally disturbed young man hell bent on getting his 15 minutes of infamy. The Pima County Sheriff’s Department was aware of his violent nature and they failed to act appropriately. This tragedy leads right back to Sherriff Dupnik and all the spin in the world is not going to change that fact.
Word is getting out, but only if you search for it. Please pass information along, if you have a Facebook account, use it. We’ve been silent for too long now
Where was the detail? Was one provided? Was one paid for?
bump
From what I hear there was one armed security guard.
Every time I see Sheriff Dupnik I want to throw my BlackBerry at the tv!
Bump.
Hey, my pleasure. Please ping me if you re-post the image, I’d love to see it (and perhaps even use it if that’s okay with you).
He should change his last name to “Dupka.”
Go to Google Translate and translate from Polish to English.
I am having a recollections of the JFK shooting, my first thoght then. LBJ hated JFK, it was LBJ's territory, (Dallas), he controled TEXAS and the political mafia down there, find some NUT WACKO who could be stirred up enough to do the job. Then arrest him, and find some other NUT WACKO to kill Oswald. Then kill that perp, RUBY.
This is like Groundhog Day, all over. Why did Odumbo send the highest ranking FBI down to take charge? HMMMMMMMMM.
Odumbo needs something like this to happen in Arizona, and where better than to find a Sheriff to obey. Very strange happenings for sure.
Then of course he is being mentored in this type of stuff from BILL CLINTON.
Where is the source for this information?
This is major and if it is verified the blood is greatly on his hands....

The latest talking point apparently involves Lee Atwater, of all people. I saw a Facebook posting from a liberal/socialist high school classmate who said “Lee Atwater, what hath thou wrought?”
I did a Google search for the last 24 hours and found that references to Lee Atwater (and therefore, by association, to Karl Rove) are starting to pop up on the net. That’s reaching pretty far back to make an association.
Read the comments under the blog post, apparently this blogger - who's a contributing columnist for an Arizona paper and a ceo for a non-profit - has some inside scoop that can't be elaborated any further.
As Joe Bite Me would say, this is a big effin’ deal. I hope Rush talks about this today.
Why wasn’t this kook Loughner in a rubber room at the nut house wearing a straight-jacket?
Lefty's are judged by a different standard! Look at the Pinko Sheriff?
KFYI in Phoenix had this on this morning’s Barry Young show. Terry Gilberg, a host, has spoken to the Blogger. When I read the comments, the Blogger said that the Pima County Sheriff’s dept is the “source”.
