Police surround Seattle home where person of interest in police shooting may be hiding A SWAT team and police negotiators surrounded a Leschi home in Seattle where the man sought for questioning in the Lakewood police shooting may be hiding. By Seattle Times staff A SWAT team and police negotiators surrounded a Leschi home in Seattle where the man sought for questioning in the Lakewood police shooting may be hiding. Police responded to the home at East Yesler Way and 32nd Avenue South where police stopped a woman who was leaving the home. She told them Maurice Clemmons was on the property and bleeding, according to a law enforcement source. The woman told police that someone had dropped Clemmons off at the home. The source also said police had received tips about two other properties they needed to search, in Queen Anne and Renton. At 8:44 p.m., Seattle police received information that the person of interest may be in a Leschi home, according to Seattle police spokesman Jeff Kappel. Police are now trying to confirm the identity of the person inside. Police blocked off the street at East Yesler and 30th Avenue South. Police are telling residents to stay indoors and keep their doors locked.

Thanks MarMema. Officer Greg Richards, good to know his name and be able to put a face to that name.
Thanks for posting the links to the photos. Words can’t express...
Just thanks...
The two photo galleries made me weep. At least the Lakewood PD can take some comfort in the number of beautiful floral displays and many notes of appreciation and condolences.
O’Reilly said on his show tonight that he is going after both judges, McCarthy and Felnagle for answers as to why they even set bail for the monster.
I’m going to bookmark this thread. All the pertinent information is posted here. I want to be certain to follow the trials of his accomplices.
Oooh, I love what you said about the judges. I love that.
Excellent idea. I’ll keep posting info and links to this thread then.
This will be a good thing...hopefully he follows through with it. My observation: The letter he wrote to the AK Gov shows he knew how to work the system even at that tender age.
“...On a Seattle area radio station last night they asked that when we put up Christmas lights this year, light one window with Blue lights or set up a blue light in it to honor the fallen Officers. Great idea. I saw one house already on the drive into work...”

“...Pierce County authorities say a man who served time in an Arkansas prison with Maurice Clemmons has been identified as the getaway driver in the fatal shooting of four Lakewood police officers...Darcus D. Allen...was sentenced to 25 years in prison for a 1990 double murder at a Little Rock liquor store. He was paroled in 2004...Arkansas prison spokeswoman Dina Tyler says Allen and Clemmons never shared a cell, but lived in the same barracks - along with 50-100 other inmates - at various times during their imprisonment...”

“...Documents released Tuesday show that a wide variety of state and local officials everyone from prosecutors to sheriff’s deputies to corrections officers viewed Clemmons as a dangerous man, and wanted desperately to keep him in custody.
But Washington officials encountered resistance from an unlikely source their correctional colleagues in Arkansas. The acrimony has since become so intense, according to Pierce County sheriff’s spokesman Ed Troyer, that if the two states were adjacent a “border war” would break out.
The dispute now centers on whether a warrant issued by Arkansas in October would have allowed Washington authorities to prevent Clemmons’ release from the Pierce County Jail six days before the shootings occurred. Arkansas says yes. Washington says no...”

I can’t post the link to the PDF files that show the exact trail of documents, but the link is at the Seattle Times, to the right of the article I linked above and will provide same link below. The PDF files are under the topic titled “related”

VERY interesting to read the documents.
Clemmons’ criminal chronology is 33 pages !!!!
For handy reference:
“...Clemmons was arrested in Washington on July 1. The following day he was formally charged with second-degree rape of a child the eighth felony charge filed against him in Washington this year alone. All eight of those charges traced to a spree of violence in May and were still pending against Clemmons while the two states tangled over how to deal with him.
Arkansas had an interest in Clemmons because he remained on parole in that state. Convicted of at least five felony charges, Clemmons served more than 10 years in Arkansas’ prison system before being released in 2004 and moving to Washington.
When Clemmons landed in trouble in May 2009, Arkansas issued a warrant for violating the conditions of his parole. This warrant, if enforced, would have allowed Washington to keep Clemmons in jail without chance of posting bond.
But on July 16, an Arkansas official notified the Washington State Department of Corrections (DOC) that Arkansas was rescinding its warrant.
Marjorie Owens, a Washington DOC administrator, wrote a blistering response on July 23, saying Arkansas’ decision appeared to violate the Interstate Compact for Adult Offender Supervision (ICAOS), an agreement governing how states treat one another’s offenders who are on supervision...”
