You will not hear the name Jason Harley Kloepfer from any corporate media outlet. Kloepfer is a disabled, white man living in a trailer in rural North Carolina who was the victim of a brutal act of police violence.

Was that the man the cop made crawl and still shot as he begged?
White men are not a protected class
Yes
Yes, it's a remote-controlled camera on wheels and he picked it up on the way to the door. And no, it all took place inside of 5 minutes. Watch the full video and note the time stamp..
That was brutal. Every one of those cops need fired and jailed.
Yep, sure can see whatever was in his hand being identified as a weapon.
You’re new here; yes, there unfortunately is. There are even some that supposed the murders of Daniel Shaver and Justine Damond.
No. This just happened.
Sorry, ignore my previous post
Pretty much they recorded SWAT shooting at/towards their own camera.
If the cops thought they was a weapon, they need their head examined. They had just thrown that robot camera in the trailer. He picked it up. It had a camera, so they saw him pick it up. Makes zero sense that they thought it was a weapon.
You do realize there is 1 person operating the camera, and you can tell by the voices far more cops outside than one.
You think the guy operating the robot, communicated to all the other cops there fully what he was seeing? Be serious. I am sure he announced the man had the camera, and I am sure some cops heard, but all of them? I highly doubt it.
I really doubt they were all huddling around the LCD screen watching its every action.
All it takes is one cop not to know whats going on, and you wind up with assumption of weapon. Given the number of voices, I highly suspect way more than a few cops were present
“Why was a SWAT Crew the “go too” response?”
If they don’t use the SWAT team they get no publicity for the SWAT team and no funding.
Why are you trying to justifying the LEO attack on that man?
Sheriff Dept response
***FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE***
On the evening of December 12, 2022, Emergency 911 dispatch received a report about a possible shooting and hostage situation on Upper Bear Paw Road in Murphy.
Since the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office does not have a tactical team to handle a hostage event, I requested assistance from the Cherokee Indian Police Department SWAT Team. Subsequently, members of CIPD SWAT fired shots at an individual who emerged from the home, injuring him.
Following the shooting, my office issued a press release about the event. The release was prepared by the county attorney based on information my office received from CIPD.
Neither myself nor Chief Deputy Justin Jacobs were on the scene at the time of the shooting, so we relied on information provided to us from the Cherokee Indian Police Department. My goal with issuing that press release was not to comment on the subsequent criminal investigation, which remains ongoing, but rather to update the public on a dangerous situation.
The first time I ever saw video footage from the shooting was on January 18, 2023. It’s my understanding that the state and district attorney’s office has been notified of the video as well.
When I campaigned for the office of Sheriff, I had several conversations with fellow law enforcement officials and the public about the need for Cherokee County to have its own tactical team. It is imperative for us to be self-reliant when it comes to fighting crime, especially during a situation in which time is of the essence, such as a hostage or active shooter event.
I will be asking county commissioners for the funds to create such a unit when budget negotiations for the next fiscal year begin.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
Sincerely,
Dustin Smith
Cherokee County Sheriff

Yes, that's the one.
Was probably the actual perp, assuming there actually was one. Or maybe just a neighbor seeking revenge. Look at how many times Marjorie Taylor Greene was swatted for political hatred.
The police are the standing army the Founders warned us about.
Hoo, boy. The hits keep on coming. Sounds like the Indians were playing Biker Cowboy and Indians.
So no comment saying the entire thing was a horrible mess and that maybe he doesn’t need SWAT? The police are the standing army the Founders warned us about.
