The man charged with fatally shooting Coeur d'Alene Police Department Sergeant Greg Moore, 43, admitted to pulling the trigger during an interview with investigators. Court documents released Tuesday morning stated that Jonathan D. Renfro, 26, admitted to the crime during the interview.
Renfro allegedly said he shot Moore because he had a gun in his pocket and knew Moore would find it. He admitted to shooting Moore with a 9mm Glock pistol he had in his coat pocket according to court records.
Sgt. Moore was shot Tuesday around 1:30 a.m. near Wilbur Avenue and Joanna Drive. White said Moore was patrolling the area due to a string of recent car burglaries.
Authorities said Sgt. Moore called into dispatch reporting that he had stopped a "suspicious person." Police said it was somewhere after that moment that Moore was shot.
Sgt. Moore was wearing a body camera at the time of the shooting. Court documents said the body camera recorded video and audio of his encounter with Renfro. Investigators who reviewed the video stated that:
"After speaking with Renfro and running Renfro's identification, Sgt. Moore asks Renfro to step over toward his patrol vehicle. At that point Renfro is observed shooting Sgt. Moore."

Being arrested and charged doesn’t seem to even upset them.
Illustration #457936 why journalism is a dying art.
Sad and disgusting.
I’m sure Obama, Holder and Lynch, as well as DeBlasio and Mayor Blakely and DA Mosby will all be attending the officer’s funeral and making condolensce speeches.
I’ve got to be shittin’ if I believed this would happen.
Wait, a white guy shot a cop. Whoa nelly. It’s a “white on blue” shooting. Maybe Sharpton will turn up for a free buffet before he condemns all those “crackers” out there who show disrespect for the police.
Oh damned. I’m having another bad dream. Sharpton, pro-police? Kosher pigs will fly before that happens.
I wonder where all the “cops are evil” folks are? I expected a thread full of celebrating....
I’ll tell ya what, find one post on ANY thread where someone celebrates the death of a cop. Then you might be taken seriously.
Prayers for this cop.
I’ll note that the body cam seem to work.
Unlike this situation: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3287453/posts
Seriously? How clever...
I didn’t know officer Moore, but I know several people who did - they’re devastated. Every person I’ve talked to that knew him, said he was truly one of the best and kindest people they’d ever known.
Sad for his young family - the community is really coming together with donations and fund raisers.
Go find a post. Go ahead.
Thank you...
