I hope this gets lots of publicity.
To: Kaslin
I hope they clean their clocks in a civil case. No sane jury will believe that every car camera and every camera at Costco that happened to be pointed at the action was not working. They need to also sue the officers personally, not just the force and Costco.
To: ExpatCanuck
They need to also sue the officers personally,...Erik Scotts family is expected to file a civil case against Costco, the Metro police, and the individual officers over his death,...

Did you follow the coroner's inquest blog at the Las Vegas Sun?
What did you think of the witness statements? Do you know of any full transcripts or videos of the testimony?

Rep. John Shimkus, Rep. Joe Sestak, Rep. Geoff Davis, Rep. Brett Guthrie, Senator Jack Reed, Senator John McCain, and Senator Jim Webb, and well as Nevadas Congressional delegation, plus Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy and Chairman of the House Judicial Committee John Conyers. (Interestingly enough, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reids name was never mentioned.)
Harry Reid's name is never mentioned when the names of honorable men are listed or discussed.

How long before the police can do no wrong brigade arrives to denounce the West Point Alumni as cop haters and government haters?

Also awful training and hiring some really stupid recruits. The awful training shows when Eric Scott got three different commands and was shot 6 times more when on the ground and out of commission

Only the in-store recording equipment was failed that day. There was testimony that Scott was being observed inside the store on camera, (a slip of the tongue if you caught it).
It will take Discovery in the civil trial to find out about the off-site recording equipment.
To: sport
They mention Joe Sestak, so it is not a list of honorable men (Hey, Joe, what did the White House promise to you if you dropped out of the race?).

If Lee county Florida is any worse then it must be doubly or triply out of control.

I've heard of this case but don't know much about it.While it's true that graduating from any of our military academies is a *strong* indication of good character it's not an absolute guarantee that you'll never develop a serious psychiatric problem or drug or alcohol problem.
I've just found a story from the LV Sun about the case and after having glanced at it I have several thoughts but I'll save all but two for now.
The ones I *won't* save are 1)Scott was carrying *two* handguns at the time,one of which he wasn't licensed to have.The story says that that's a felony in NV.But more importantly (to me) is...what's the deal with *two* weapons?? Yah,I can see having one...I have no problem with *one*.But *two*,even if legal,suggests to me that he might have had a screw loose.
And 2) suing Costco is Barbara Streisand.Suing the cops might be logical....but Costco didn't fire any weapons and they didn't *cause* any weapons to be fired.Suing them is a sign that a slimey lawyer is at work here looking for *DEEP* pockets and a *HUGE* payday for himself.
And,lastly,I'd be curious to see if any toxicology tests were done in the autopsy (I'll wager there were) and how they turned out.I'd also want to see what psychiatric history,in any,Scott,and the cops,had...and what trouble,in any,Scott had with the police/courts (civilian and military) in the past...and what disciplinary problems,if any,the cops involved might have had in the past.
OK...I'm ready...flame away!

I understand that aand they even included Jim Webb. But what was left unsaid, they considered both of these more honorable than Harry Reid. I don’t,but, that is just my opinion. In my opinion, the three are all equally repugnant. Again, just my opinion.

Among other VALID reasons to do so, suing Costco gets you more chance at discovery as to why all the cameras didn’t work, and work at the most important moments.

Troubling bursts of static in the Metro radio traffic at key points indicate that these communications need to be examined, and the lack of in-car camera footage from the multiple police cars is also odd to put it mildly. This is on top of the fact that Costcos cameras seemingly malfunctioned in the days before the shooting, meaning that none of the four cameras pointed at the scene of the shooting recorded the event according to Metro and Costco the two entities that have the most to lose from disclosure of such evidence. Cold blooded murder and cover up of same. Period.

what's the deal with *two* weapons??A back up gun is not uncommon, especially with the small, light .380's available these days. It's called a "New York Reload" Also, guns can malfunction, it's easier to go for your backup than screw around clearing a jam.

You sue Costco to hear the complete 911 recording that has NOT surfaced yet.
