St. Petersburg police shooter Hydra Lacy Jr. spent years in prison. Court records show two prison terms, starting when he was 17, and arrests for grand theft, aggravated battery, rape, kidnapping, attempted murder and resisting arrest with violence.
In a story in the St. Petersburg Times Sunday about Lacy’s funeral, former police officer Davis explained he attended the cop killer Lacy’s funeral to support the Lacy family, which includes Hydra’s brother and boxing standout Jeff Lacy — who himself did not attend.
What is funny is that his superiors are covering for him by refusing to comment on why this former cop is supporting a rapist, kidnapper, cop killer.
His immediate boss, City Administrator Tish Elston, didn’t return a phone call and e-mail seeking comment about his possible absence or whether she asked him not to attend.
Mayor Bill Foster didn’t return repeated calls seeking comment.
