From what I’m hearing the informant gave bad information. He was supposedly growing some pot plants and that hasn’t panned out. I feel sorry for the detective’s family, they seem to be lovely people, but I also feel terrible for the “defendant” whose house was robbed not too long before this incident. To call it first degree murder implies that he planned to kill this detective, but I don’t think this charge is going to stick. I hope he gets a good lawyer.
Dittos.
I too feel for his family as I never feel good about a cop getting killed while doing his jib.
I do understand how this kind of thing happens.
I do not grow dope nor do I knowingly do anything illegal. But over the years I know I’ve made a few folks mad as hell at me and one could drop a coin and tell the cops a made up story.
Now I sleep with ear plugs as I am such a light sleeper and if someone broke down my door I’d probably come up with my new Kimber firing.
