More Sordid Details - Marine Was Shot 60 Times

#10  Exactly my feeling. I can't help but wonder if they went to the wrong house. The guy had a family, job, and was a marine - to me that makes him rather unlikely to be in the drug trade. (But then I'm not an alledged 'expert') But that's just me. Just doesn't seem right. And the way the SWAT left the building apparently _after_ securing it.

#8  That is just disgusting.

Iblis: you are right

Lying cops. Disgusting. "he fired at us" becomes... the safety catch was still on.

That is just the most disgraceful thing. I am so sorry for that poor lady and child that will now grow up without a father, who was a good-looking, upright young man.

#7  What I want to know is if the Marines are putting on pressure on the County. A marine was killed in his home, by all rights defending his family. I also predict the sheriff will not have his job come the next election. I further predict this will be Exhibit A when the Indiana Supreme Court ruling reaches the US Supreme Court.

#6  Surprise meter?

Cops lie. They are self-serving union bureaucrats protecting their own interests. Exceptions? Sure. And fewer all the time.

#5  Apparently SWAT came in and shot the marine - then left the building. When the wife called 911 there was some confusion on weather her address was one on the SWAT hit list.

Why was there any confusion? Was the confusion caused by the wife's account (they came in and shot my husband my address is.....) and the address on the SWAT list? The raid list showing a different address than what the woman stated?

Then, having plugged the guy 60 times - and holding the gun on the wife - they left the house, and the wife - claiming it was was a barricated person situation?

Who knows what happened. Looks like the sheriff dept is covering their ass - OTOH there might really be an ongoing investigation.

#2  this is Sheriff Dupnick's territory. You remember him? The attention whore that blamed Gabby Gifford's shooting on right wing Republicans. Incompetent f*cker. They are trying to scuttle any inquiry by stonewalling.
