Anybody keeping up with this? Some cop went nuts and has killed several people in the last 36 hours. He apparently published a manifesto. They're still looking for him. The LAPD is nervous as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs, he's mainly gunning for them.

Suspect's 11-page manifesto: 'There is no negotiation' | wzzm13.com

Yes, I am. I wonder just how badly this will all work out.

Yes, I believe they said he's ran to Arizona.?

Patsy

I haven't found any updates yet. I doubt he's close to the scene of the crimes.

Ok here's one. They found his truck.

Sheriff: Burned Truck Is Christopher Dorner's - YouTube

San Diego.

Cop-killing suspect was in San Diego Page 1 of 3 | UTSanDiego.com

I guess they have been concentrating in the Snowy Mountains and the Big Bear resort area.

It must be just me cause I find this scenario extremely funny . copper goes postal ... Serves yourselves right for giving a job to a seasoned soldier to do a home grown job . He doesn't get it? No **** sherlock !!!! none of them do .

Scrat

They're saying or suspect he's in the cold Bear Lake area - due to the fact there could be a empty cabin available.

I"m sure he's a survivor - I don't think that's the area he's in ??

Truck was out - obvious - decoy arranged - and it's too cold to stay

he's not stupid - just crazy...!

Patsy

If he has survival training he knows how to live out in the open, and you don't need a cabin to survive in the open. A tunnel in the snow will do nicely. Sooner or later he is going to make a mistake. He may definitely be headed elsewhere but I have been proven wrong in these situations many times. I don't think he is that smart, he's a city kid. He will be drawn to the lights of civilization and I don't think he's in the mountains. I think he switched his truck with a car and headed out of state. Torching his truck was a dumb move, he should have driven it out somewhere and hid it. I would have done it deep in the woods, it may not have been found for months. I bet he headed north or south, most likely north as I heard a rumor he may have family in the Portland/Vancouver area.

It's just as likely he is still in LA though.

God's making it difficult:

Dorner manhunt: Snow closes highway to Big BearSan Bernardino Highway 38, a primary route in and out of Big Bear -- where a massive search for fugitive ex-cop Christopher Jordan Dorner is being conducted -- was closed early Saturday morning in both directions because of heavy snow.

A SigAlert announced the closure between Angeles Oaks and Big Bear and suggested motorists use Highway 330 Highway as an alternate route. It was unclear when the highway would reopen.

The closure adds further complications to the days-long manhunt for Dorner, the 33-year-old former Los Angeles police officer suspected of killing three people. Law enforcement has been following tracks left in the snow and going door-to-door in search of him amid a storm that dumped at least eight inches of snow on the mountain Friday.Dorner manhunt: Snow closes highway to Big Bear - latimes.com

Attaboy. That should get you the attention you so crave, dipwad.

Scrat

I agree burning the truck was stupid - I agree he had another vehicle available.

It would be just as stupid for him to be leaving foot prints in the snow.

The police dept. fired him 5 yrs. ago - it's like why now?

Why was he fired? - personality traits of violence? never heard..?

I don't think he's hiding - I think he's still working off his list of hits...?

Patsy

I heard he had some objections to what was going on in the police force and there was some infighting and politics involved, he was sacked. We all know how things like this work, I personally have no faith in the integrity of any police force or any of the individuals in it. If he's like a lot (not all) of other "elites" in our police forces he is a hot head who lacks perspective when it comes to reality I would think. LAPD is being tight lipped but I bet if the right people got involved and all was seen then it would be very appalling.

Scrat

Are you saying this problem X-officer could open or reveal a can of worms for the Police Force.? it probably would be appalling

you could be right - I haven't heard details.

It reads like a bad movie, doesn't it?

Flop

This is a bad movie - great example :wah:

interesting to see how this one plays out.

Do you notice that us - us humans are receiving these crazy scenarios - it's daily

and we humans just cope with the craziness.. it's stressful - makes one sick and on until the next one - we not shocked by much.

We're numb by the violence

An update (of sorts)

LAPD to re-examine disciplinary action that led to ex-cop's rampage



http://uk.news.yahoo.com/sheens-video-m ... 03978.html

Thanks for the article Along

Police - swat teams - bloodhounds and still people had to go in that area to ski..? Really ?

We are just numb to violence.

Patsy

I saw in one interview that the LAPDs utmost concern was public safety, then I find this. Somebody needs to lose their badges.

And there people are charged with safeguarding the lives of their citizens? Twenty+ shots with no identification of who they were shooting?

Madness!

Goddamn scary isn't it? Nobody is going to tell me that there isn't shenanigans going on around the country.

They shot a 71 year old Hispanic woman in the back twice. Wrong make of truck, wrong color, wrong gender, wrong race, wrong size. Jesus Christ on a pogo stick.

And it gets even "better":

Following that shooting, Torrance officers responding to the gunfire, collided with and shot at a pickup truck leaving the area. The driver was not related to the Dorner case.


That looked like a black truck. So basically, if you own a truck in that area, I suggest taking the bus for a while

If you own a dark colored truck get it out of sight, they might take a gatling to it. Sheesh. I hope those people take the department to the cleaners.

The truck owned by the two women delivering papers was a very bright turquoise/teal looking color. It was practically glow in the dark. They're going to start firing on kids on motocross bikes next.

I wish he'd hide out in my hometown, I'm close to Arizona and I could use the million dollar cash reward.

I didn't realize the size of the reward...!!!

wow - Saint - need any help..?:wah:

Patsy

Scrat

this video is just nuts - 20 shots - the officers on steriods or what?

I see the department paying a lot out - ruined lives in the meantime.

this happens more than we're aware of

I have been in LA this weekend. The cops are nervous, understandably.

Every traffic stop has at least two cops, and usually a second car with two more shows up.

The hunt continues to focus on the mountains to the north.

The looks enough like LL Cool J, the rapper turned actor, that if I was that actor, I think I would stay in New York for a few weeks.

Meanwhile, there is an investigation into the incident that triggered all of this.

What is strange is how the guy had an exemplary record while serving in the Navy, and yet is reported to be a *****-up by the LAPD.

I'm guessing Sylvester Stallone will star in the movie. They might even call it First Blood.

There was a movie some years back with Samuel Jackson and Kevin Spacey, called "The Negotiator" that comes to mind.

Wouldn't that just be "Copland" with the actor's positions reversed?

Yeah, that's very suspicious to me as well. I'm surprised he's still on the loose. The suspense is incredible. I'm not cheering for him, especially since he shot innocents, but there's something strangely compelling about the whole "lone man against the establishment" motif. Kind of reminds me of a James Cagney "White Heat" or Humphrey Bogart "High Sierra" movie, anti-hero and all.

Allegedly shot innocents.

If he survives this, then we might find out if he actually did. (I read a lot of those kinds of stories when riding in airplanes.)

It is interesting that the first person he is suspected of shooting was the person who represented him in the hearings.

This would have made a great Wambaugh story.

In a bizarre way I can understand the cops being trigger happy... It's not right but understandable.

The guy on the run potentially could kill tens of people If cornered...

City Kids............. are very smart. Easier to learn to survive in the country,

after you have survived the city.

Wonder how long his residency on death row will last, given the appeals procedure, he might die of old age yet.

Better have a gun for this apprehension.

Suprising to see some people are supporting this guy..?

calling him a Rebel... Really?

Same reason people supported Bonnie and Clyde, I guess. He's captured the imagination of the country and there's enough bad history for the LAPD and enough grey area lack of information to allow people to think he might be innocent.

As for myself, I apply the same rule I apply to terrorists: Once you find it necessary to kill for your cause, then your cause wasn't righteous in the first place.

:yh_youkid

I agree with you Saint...

Your right about the fasination and I'm right about humans are numb.

Some took families up to ski in the same location of this guy..?

Do you really want to explain a bloodhound to your 6 yr. old.? no where else to play today?

I don't know - I think of safety first..? makes no sense
