Death by Police Archive



Hands Up Don't Shoot
How is it police manage to apprehend and incarcerate extraordinarily dangerous serial killers/ mass murderers/spree killers and vigilantes yet cannot manage the capture of citizens of ethnic lineage without executing them?

I believe ALL those listed below regardless of whether they were in the process of perpetrating a crime, in a gang, drug possession, incarceration, resisting arrest, alluding, a weapon thrown aside, mentally ill or just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time, they are all victims. Victims who loved and were loved. This memorial is dedicated to all the Mothers and Fathers, Sons and Daughters, Husbands and Wife’s, Grandparents, Sisters and Brothers, Nieces and Nephews, Girlfriends, Boyfriends, Lovers, Friends and Neighbors who have lost someone at the hands of law enforcement. For all the heartbreak, shed tears, unanswered questions, lies and grief for a life unfulfilled, to you I give honor, for “there but for the grace of God go I”. May you find peace in knowing their bloodshed will not go unnoticed nor will their life be forgotten.

As we remember victims of violence let us remember the sadness of loss. May that sadness be transformed into compassion for the victim and their loved ones. May the fear struck in us by the power of tragedy give way to reverence at the unending power of unconditional love. May we uncover the energy of our anger and use it to right what is wrong in our own behavior toward one another and to challenge the mindsets and systems which enable and promote violence. May love gently wipe the tears from our eyes and remove the fear from our hearts. Look with favor upon the families and friends who mourn the victims and comfort those who are in grief and despair, that peace, the fruit of justice and charity may reign for each of us gathered here today. For all victims of crime, abuse, harassment and all who commit acts of violence; from those who speak harsh words in anger, to those who hate others who are different from themselves, to those who take the life of another, may we learn to act justly, love tenderly and walk humbly.

Unfortunately due to the ongoing killings by Police and vigilantes claiming Stand Your Ground (Castle Doctrine) this list will continue to grow. If you have a family member, friend or know of someone killed at the hands of Law Enforcement (or others) please let me know and I’ll add their name to this memorandum.

(Part 6) Victim Archive of Law Enforcement Murders


Part 6

Currently, there is no national database documenting the murders of un-armed people by police, security guards or self-appointed vigilantes. Although not all victims found here were weaponless, the fatal murdering of the unarmed: whether they are of ethnic origin, disabled, mentally ill, homeless or their sexual orientation, by Police Departments across the country is unjustified, and the vast majority of officers involved are not being held accountable.

I believe ALL those listed below regardless of whether they were in the process of perpetrating a crime, in a gang, drug possession, incarceration, resisting arrest, alluding, a weapon thrown aside, mentally ill or just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time, they are all victims. Victims who loved and were loved. This memorial is dedicated to all the Mothers and Fathers, Sons and Daughters, Husbands and Wife’s, Grandparents, Sisters and Brothers, Nieces and Nephews, Girlfriends, Boyfriends, Lovers, Friends and Neighbors who have lost someone at the hands of law enforcement. For all the heartbreak, shed tears, unanswered questions, lies and grief for a life unfulfilled, to you I give honor, for “there but for the grace of God go I”. May you find peace in knowing their bloodshed will not go unnoticed nor will their life be forgotten.

As we remember victims of violence let us remember the sadness of loss. May that sadness be transformed into compassion for the victim and their loved ones. May the fear struck in us by the power of tragedy give way to reverence at the unending power of unconditional love. May we uncover the energy of our anger and use it to right what is wrong in our own behavior toward one another and to challenge the mindsets and systems which enable and promote violence. May love gently wipe the tears from our eyes and remove the fear from our hearts. Look with favor upon the families and friends who mourn the victims and comfort those who are in grief and despair, that peace, the fruit of justice and charity may reign for each of us gathered here today. For all victims of crime, abuse, harassment and all who commit acts of violence; from those who speak harsh words in anger, to those who hate others who are different from themselves, to those who take the life of another, may we learn to act justly, love tenderly and walk humbly.

Unfortunately due to the ongoing killings by Police and vigilantes claiming Stand Your Ground (Castle Doctrine) this list will continue to grow. If you have a family member, friend or know of someone (unarmed) murdered at the hands of Law Enforcement (or others) please let me know and I’ll add their name to this memorandum.

My definition of Unarmed
Please keep in mind I am only able to research and write bio’s on 5-7 victims per day. Each bio is verified through multiple sources, photos are retrieved, copied, cropped. Each bio is written and condensed close as possible to a single paragraph, many have links to READ MORE. Each name, age, state and ethnicity are entered into 3 data bases and then, after all pertinent information has been gathered I individually post to the website. Therefore each bio takes anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes to complete.

It is at my discretion as to what I consider as being unarmed. If the person has a weapon but is unable to use it because it’s under a seat, knocked to the side, fallen to the ground, in someone else’s possession etc. I consider that person unarmed. If someone is shot in the back, I consider that person unarmed. If there appears to be questionable circumstances surrounding the death, I consider that person unarmed. If the person is mentally ill and can be contained without using deadly force, I consider that person unarmed. If ANYONE can be contained without using deadly force, I consider that person unarmed.

There is no reason, in my opinion to shoot someone when police manage to apprehend and incarcerate extraordinarily dangerous serial killers/ mass murderers/spree killers and vigilantes yet cannot manage the capture of citizens of ethnic lineage without executing them.

However, if someone is shooting, holding a weapon or hurting someone (including an officer) and there is absolutely no other way to control them, I consider that person armed. Mind you, I credit witness statements far above police reports.

I DO NOT believe Law Enforcement reports. Lies the police tell that are so familiar anyone can recite them: “Reached for waist band”; “Pointed hand at police in a threatening manner.” “Backed the car toward officers” “Lunged at me” “Had a black object in hand” “Tried to grab gun” “Officers of the Un-Peace” or “Un-Peace Officers” Campaigns were formed against the “Blue Code” supposedly making it more visible to the public eye have taken place but all they seem to be doing is allowing the police to police the police and the police. Police are liars, period. So please don’t think I would even consider relying on their statements. The code of Blue Silence is too real to be ignored, and has been proven over and over again to be the real badge of the law.

As for Grand Juries they’ve been bought and paid for in more cases than can be counted. There is something fundamentally unfair about a grand jury system which doesn’t reflect the racial, political and ethnic diversity of the community it serves and the people it indicts.

This Is What It’s Like To Be An Unarmed Black Man In America

Cesar CruzCesar Ray Cruz 35, Dec. 9, 2009 Anaheim CA – Undercover officers, including gang investigators and Officer Phillips, received information a parolee in a green Chevrolet was armed with a handgun. Officers followed the vehicle to a Wal-Mart parking lot, where they tried to box the car in. Four of the officers said they fired because they claim they saw Cruz reach for his waistband and believed he was going for a gun. Cruz didn’t have one on him when officers fired, he wasn’t holding a weapon. Police claim they found a 9 mm handgun with the safety on in his vehicle’s passenger seat. Sgt. Rick Martinez of the Anaheim Police Dept. say’s “as to whether he shot at us, I don’t know, five Officers shot at him about 20 times in a few seconds”. It took five hours for his family to be notified Cruz was dead and took almost two weeks to identify him at the Orange County Coroner’s Office. Cruz had been shot 11 times in the back and he had bruises on his chest. Officer Phillips was the same officer who killed Joel Acevedo July 22, 2012. Murdered by Anaheim PD

David RayaDavid Duarte Raya 23, Aug. 16, 2011 Anaheim CA – Raya was staying at his girlfriend’s apartment when the Anaheim Police Department Crime Task Force attempted to contact him a foot chase ensued. Anaheim police investigator Bruce Linn fired three shots at Raya, claiming the man had made motions towards his rear waistband. Two more shots were fired, striking and killing Raya. Linn said he feared for his life and that of his partner Chad Meyer. No weapon was ever recovered from the scene; only a glass pipe authorities say was retrieved in the waistband of his shorts near the small of his back. According to OCDA investigation letters, detective Bruce Linn is named in at least five total officer-involved shootings in and around Anaheim dating back to September 25, 2002. In addition to Raya, Linn was also a part of the December 11, 2009 killing of 35-year-old Caesar Cruz. Orange County prosecutors ruled the shooting of Raya was justified, but the city agreed this year to pay his mother $245,000 to settle a federal lawsuit. Murdered by Anaheim PD

No Photo Available-001Michael Donald Reed 29, Feb. 18, 1995 Upper Marlboro MD – Reed may have been living in his car. Officer Wayne Cheney claimed he had a confrontation near a junkyard in northwestern Upper Marlboro so he shot and killed Reed claiming he was in fear for his life. Reed was pronounced dead at Prince George’s Hospital Center in Cheverly soon after a 12:20 a.m. No weapon was found. Officer Wayne Cheney shot and killed 29-year-old Michael D. Reed in Upper Marlboro on Feb. 18, 1995. Cheney was also cleared of those charges. Also killed Archie “Artie” Elliott III. Murdered by Prince George County PD

No Photo Available-001Manuel de Jesus Espina 43, Aug. 20, 2008 Prince George County MD – Steven Jackson an off-duty Police officer moonlighting as a security officer and wearing his police uniform approached Espina and a group of men who were gathered outside a brick, three-story apartment building were drinking beer (laws prohibiting drinking in public do not apply to private property such as the apartment complex) attempted to arrest Espina for an alcohol violation in the stairwell of an apartment building. When he filed to restrain Espina he used a baton and pepper spray. Both men entered the apartment, and his mother retreated to the sofa. The officer continued to strike Espina with the baton “He was hitting him very hard. He was screaming and hitting him.

In the audio, Officer Adam McPherson in pursuit of Comstock tells dispatch the truck’s driver “just rammed me, he just rammed my vehicle.” A few seconds later “He blew the stoplight … he lost the trailer.” At that point, an unidentified Ames police staffer tells the officer: “If he’s that reckless coming into the college area, why don’t you back off. The driver’s identity is known.” Minutes later, the truck Comstock was driving stopped, and Officer Adam McPherson commanded him to shut off the vehicle. Instead, Comstock revved the engine, and McPherson fired six rounds at the truck. Comstock died from two gunshot wounds, one each to his head and chest. Ames Police Cmdr. Geoff Huff said “when the suspect’s identity has been established to the point that later apprehension can be accomplished the pursuit must stop.

Bio’s for all 350 Unarmed Victims HERE

(Part 3) Victim Archive of Law Enforcement Murders


Part 3

Currently, there is no national database documenting the murders of un-armed people by police, security guards or self-appointed vigilantes. Although not all victims found here were weaponless, the fatal murdering of the unarmed: whether they are of ethnic origin, are disabled, mentally ill, homeless or their sexual orientation, by Police Departments across the country is unjustified, and the vast majority of officers involved are not being held accountable.

Unfortunately due to the ongoing killings by Police and people claiming Stand Your Ground (Castle Doctrine) this list will continue to grow. If you have a family member, friend or know of someone (unarmed) murdered at the hands of Law Enforcement (or others) please let me know and I’ll add their name to this memorandum.

I believe ALL those listed below regardless of whether they were in the process of perpetrating a crime, in a gang, drug possession, incarceration, resisting arrest, alluding, a weapon thrown aside, mentally ill or just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time, they are all victims. Victims who loved and were loved. This memorial is dedicated to all the Mothers and Fathers, Sons and Daughters, Husbands and Wife’s, Grandparents, Sisters and Brothers, Nieces and Nephews, Girlfriends, Boyfriends, Lovers, Friends and Neighbors who have lost someone at the hands of law enforcement. For all the heartbreak, shed tears, unanswered questions, lies and grief for a life unfulfilled, to you I give honor, for “there but for the grace of God go I”. May you find peace in knowing their bloodshed will not go unnoticed nor will their life be forgotten.

As we remember victims of violence let us remember the sadness of loss. May that sadness be transformed into compassion for the victim and their loved ones. May the fear struck in us by the power of tragedy give way to reverence at the unending power of unconditional love. May we uncover the energy of our anger and use it to right what is wrong in our own behavior toward one another and to challenge the mindsets and systems which enable and promote violence. May love gently wipe the tears from our eyes and remove the fear from our hearts. Look with favor upon the families and friends who mourn the victims and comfort those who are in grief and despair, that peace, the fruit of justice and charity may reign for each of us gathered here today. For all victims of crime, abuse, harassment and all who commit acts of violence; from those who speak harsh words in anger, to those who hate others who are different from themselves, to those who take the life of another, may we learn to act justly, love tenderly and walk humbly.

My definition of Unarmed
Please keep in mind I am only able to research and write bio’s on 5-7 victims per day. Each bio is verified through multiple sources, photos are retrieved, copied, cropped. Each bio is written and condensed close as possible to a single paragraph, many have links to READ MORE. Each name, age, state and ethnicity are entered into 3 data bases and then, after all pertinent information has been gathered I individually post to the website. Therefore each bio takes anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes to complete.

It is at my discretion as to what I consider as being unarmed. If the person has a weapon but is unable to use it because it’s under a seat, knocked to the side, fallen to the ground, in someone else’s possession etc. I consider that person unarmed. If someone is shot in the back, I consider that person unarmed. If there appears to be questionable circumstances surrounding the death, I consider that person unarmed. If the person is mentally ill and can be contained without using deadly force, I consider that person unarmed. If ANYONE can be contained without using deadly force, I consider that person unarmed.

There is no reason, in my opinion to shoot someone when police manage to apprehend and incarcerate extraordinarily dangerous serial killers/ mass murderers/spree killers and vigilantes yet cannot manage the capture of citizens of ethnic lineage without executing them.

However, if someone is shooting, holding a weapon or hurting someone (including an officer) and there is absolutely no other way to control them, I consider that person armed. Mind you, I credit witness statements far above police reports.

I DO NOT believe Law Enforcement reports. Lies the police tell that are so familiar anyone can recite them: “Reached for waist band”; “Pointed hand at police in a threatening manner.” “Backed the car toward officers” “Lunged at me” “Had a black object in hand” “Tried to grab gun” “Officers of the Un-Peace” or “Un-Peace Officers” Campaigns were formed against the “Blue Code” supposedly making it more visible to the public eye have taken place but all they seem to be doing is allowing the police to police the police and the police. Police are liars, period. So please don’t think I would even consider relying on their statements. The code of Blue Silence is too real to be ignored, and has been proven over and over again to be the real badge of the law.

As for Grand Juries they’ve been bought and paid for in more cases than can be counted. There is something fundamentally unfair about a grand jury system which doesn’t reflect the racial, political and ethnic diversity of the community it serves and the people it indicts.

MCMcKenzie Cochran 25, Jan. 25, 2014 Detroit, MI – The day after he had been asked to leave the building over suspicious behavior, Cochran returned and reportedly told a worker at a mall jewelry store that he wanted to kill someone. The worker called security, and when Cochran wouldn’t leave, guards pepper-sprayed and restrained him. He struggled on the ground as three officers held him for several minutes, one with a knee in his back. Cell phone video shows Cochran crying out and saying, “I can’t breathe,” One of the guards can be heard saying, “If you can talk, you can breathe.” Southfield police say Cochran was unconscious, cuffed and in a “seated position” by the time their officers arrived. Paramedics brought him to Providence Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. He also asked for bystanders to call 911 and said he was dying. “Stop resisting,” a guard repeated several times during the incident, captured in a longer cell phone video from a bystander: The Oakland County Medical Examiner’s Office ruled Cochran’s death an accident, naming the cause of death as position compression asphyxia. No charges filed against vigilante Mall Cops. Murdered by Mall Security Guards.

ABAnthony Baez 29, Dec. 22, 1994 Bronx, NY – Early in the morning on Cameron Place in the Mount Hope section of the Bronx,New York. The fatal encounter began when Anthony Baez and his brothers hit a police car with their football accidentally around 1:30 am. Officer Francis Livoti ordered them to go home. The Baez brothers continued their game, playing in the opposite direction. Officer Francis Livoti arrested David Baez first for disorderly conduct. He then attempted to arrest Anthony Baez, who had protested his brother’s arrest by crossing his arms in front of his chest. A scuffle ensued, while other officers arrived on scene. Baez was subdued, lost consciousness, and was taken to a hospital, where he was declared dead of asphyxiation. Officer Livoti denied that he had used a choke hold, asserting that any choking was unintentional and that he had not caused Baez’s injuries or death. In June 1998, Livoti was convicted in Federal court of violating Anthony Baez’s civil rights, and was sentenced to seven and a half years in federal prison. Livoti was released in April 2005, after serving six and a half years. Murdered by NYPD

rickyErik “Ricky” Bradley (age unknown possibly mid to late 30’s) March 25, 2013 Lawndale, IL – Ricky allegedly found police surveillance equipment in an abandoned building while he was scrapping. That equipment was being used to watch the local drug trade. Ricky took it and walked around all day with it in a black bag. That same night, hours before Ricky was murdered, neighbors told me he was roller skating, his friends skated with Ricky often. He was a sportsman, a former teacher who caught a bad wave on drugs and ended up homeless. According to police, they responded to a call of a ‘theft in progress’ at 1500 block of South Kostner. There they found Bradley with a bag of stolen items. During a ‘protective pat down,’ Bradley allegedly reached for a gun, at which point the officers shot and killed him. Larry Kimbrough, a neighbor Bradley’s contends police officers killed him in retaliation for stealing a police detective’s laptop days earlier, then planted a gun on him. Larry maintains Ricky wasn’t the kind of man to carry around a gun. “If he had a gun, five minutes later he would sell it for some money to go do what he liked to do.” … So how did Ricky Bradley end up behind a building at 15th and Kostner with two bullets in his head and six in his body? The story of Ricky’s ending brings up more questions than answers. The police say Ricky had a gun while in their custody and he reached for it when being searched. Everyone in the area knew that if Ricky had a gun he would exchange it for drugs. He wasn’t in the business of sticking people up. He washed cars and collected metal. He was higher than high. Some would even say happy. Family and friends say there are two crime scenes in this case: One, that the official police story of Ricky being killed behind an abandoned building is false; and two, that allegedly police shot him in his home, an abandoned house which was across the alley where his body was found. Outraged, about 200 people in the neighborhood broke into the house where Ricky stayed, where they found blood remains. There is fresh blood is on the stairs outside and in a room upstairs. Police refuse to answer to this discovery. Murdered by Chicago PD

She then went to the corner market, brought a money order for the $22.09. The police were called, exiting their cars with guns drawn. Ms. Love had a 11-inch boning knife she had been using to whack at two rubber trees in her front yard. When the cops approached her from approximately 15 ft. away, Ms. Love, reacted emotionally refusing to put the knife down screaming she wouldn’t let her children go hungry. The Officers began to approach her, Officer O’Callahan whacked her knife hand and it fell to the ground, she managed to retrieve it and threw at at the officer, missing him. Two minutes and 27 seconds after their arrival, she lay dead with eight bullet wounds. Police Chief Daryl Gates exonerated the officers as they were within departmental policy but they’d used “faulty judgment and poor tactics” in approaching Love with their guns drawn. Murdered by LAPD

Larrigan fired once. The single bullet struck her in the chest. She died shortly thereafter.

jordanRandall Jordan-Aparo 27, (DOC Inmate) September 2010 Franklin Correctional Prison FL – Incarcerated for check forgery Jordan-Aparo was serving an 18 month sentence. Experiencing cold-like symptoms caused by a pre-existing blood disorder documented in his prison medical file, Jordan-Aparo pleaded to be taken to the hospital for his blood disorder which had flared up.

RaineyDarren Rainey 50, (mentally-ill inmate) June 2012 Dade Correctional FL – Rainey defecated in his cell and refused to clean it up. The correction officers locked Rainey in a closet-like shower “He was crying, please stop, please stop, the guard said “Enjoy your shower, and left.” Rainey was scalded to death. Chunks of his skin were slipping off his body. When staff witnesses reported their finding to their boss, Inspector General Jeffery Beasley, Beasley alleged said that he would “have their asses” if they didn’t back off. Rainey was serving a two-year sentence for drug possession and housed in a psychiatric unit. After his death, guards forced another prisoner, Mark Joiner, fellow inmate who heard the man’s screams of pain and agony was forced to clean up the shower where Darren died, including chunks of skin.
The inspector general’s report said that the video camera in the shower area showed DOC officer Roland Clarke place Rainey in the shower at 7:38 p.m. Hempstead said the shower had sufficient room for an inmate to avoid a direct hit from the spray, but that the extreme heat would eventually make the air unbreathable as the scalding water lapped at inmates’ feet.Hempstead wrote that he and other inmates, whose cells are directly below the shower, began hearing Rainey’s screams about 8:55 p.m. It went on for about 30 minutes before it sounded like he fell to the shower floor. The DOC inspector general’s report said Clarke found Rainey dead at 9:30 p.m. and called for medical assistance. “I then seen [sic] his burnt dead body naked body go about two feet from my cell door on a stretcher,’’ Hempstead wrote. Miami-Dade homicide investigators were called to the prison. But another inmate, a convicted murderer named Mark Joiner, wrote in a letter to the inspector general that he was ordered to “clean up the crime scene’’ prior to the area being secured. Early in the week after the incident, maintenance workers at the prison disabled the plumbing that fed the shower, Hempstead told the Herald in an interview at the prison. Murdered by Dade Correctional Guards

LopezChristopher Lopez 35, (schizophrenic) March 17, 2013 Pueblo CO – San Carlos correctional officers found Lopez in an intake cell at about 3:30 a.m. An hour later, six correctional officers dressed in riot gear entered his cell and dragged him out. They stripped him, chained and cuffed him to a wheeled transport chair, and pulled a spit mask over his head. They left him in the chair, slumped forward, held to the chair by a chain around his belly, the suit says. Sometime after 6 a.m., Lopez began shaking uncontrollably while having a grand mal seizure, the lawsuit says. At about 9:10 a.m., after a second seizure, Lopez’s body, which had been heaving with each breath, stopped moving as he died. Officers called mental health clinician Cheryl Neumeister, who arrived at 9:15 a.m. “I can see you breathing,” Neumeister called to the dead man, the lawsuit says. She left the area after chatting and joking. It took staff another 15 minutes to determine Lopez was dead. He was shaking and lying on his stomach. His arms were under his chest, and his face was on the floor. Lopez died on a cell floor after two severe seizures and other obvious and dire symptoms didn’t prompt staff to help him. *Lopez died from severe hyponatremia, a condition that develops when a person’s sodium levels fall fatally low. It’s been suggested that Lopez had been given too much psychotropic medication, which caused his body to begin shutting down. Several guards, nurses, and a mental health clinician stood outside Lopez’s cell, where he was lying manacled on the floor, talking
casually and laughing while he suffered a series of seizures. The facility was obligated to report it (within one day) yet failed for 17 months. Adrienne Jacobson, spokeswoman for the Colorado Department of Corrections, excuse was “Lopez’s death was not reported to the health department because Lopez did not die in the clinic. When deaths occur in prison clinics, they are reported” Murdered by San Carlos DOC Officers

No Photo Available-001Efrain Lopez 18, Nov. 9, 1992 Pacoima, CA – Santos Gallardo says she had never seen that wild glint in her son’s eyes before and it scared her. He looked and acted crazy–drinking holy water, draping rosary beads around his neck, and claiming to be both Christ and Satan. When he grabbed for his baby half-sister and smashed the window of her Pacoima garage apartment with a broomstick, she dialed 911. Gallardo, 40, said she just wanted police to bring Efrain Lopez under control. “I never thought they’d kill him”. But Los Angeles police officer, 30-year old Neil Goldberg, shot Lopez nine times during a confrontation on, which took 72 seconds, start to finish. The bullets pierced or grazed virtually every vital organ: heart, lungs, liver, spleen, pancreas and kidneys. Later, police said Lopez was under the influence of phencyclidine (aka PCP and “angel dust”) and was swinging a one-pound broomstick like a baseball bat at officers. The officer was neither prosecuted nor disciplined. But the city paid Lopez’s survivors $200,000. Murdered by LAPD

PatriciaPatricia Cook 54, Feb. 9, 2012 Culpeper, VA – Police Officer Daniel Harmon-Wright was dispatched to find out why Sunday School Teacher Cook would not leave the Epiphany Catholic School’s parking lot. When Cook rolled up her window during questioning and began to drive away, Harmon-Wright fired two shots point blank, striking Cook in the face and the arm. As Cook drove away, Harmon-Wright fired through the back window, striking her in the head, the spine, and the heart. The last shot killed her and sent the Jeep careening into a telephone poll. In his statement Officer Daniel Harmon-Wright, claimed he was responding to reports of a suspicious woman sitting in her vehicle on the school’s property, and when he went to take Cook’s license, she rolled up his arm in her Jeep’s window and drove off, dragging the officer and forcing him to shoot. Kris Buchele, a carpenter who was working nearby “Harmon-Wright was not dragged and that he shot Cook before she drove away”; that “he didn’t have his arm caught because the officer’s left hand was on the door handle and right hand was holding a weapon”; that “he distinctly saw her roll up the window all the way before the officer shot out the glass and killed her.” The first two rounds, fired at point-blank range, tore into Cook’s face and arm. Another round, fired as Cook was driving away from the shooter, entered her brain. A fourth round severed her spine and veered into her heart, killing her. A telephone pole brought her Jeep Wrangler to a halt. Soon after Harmon-Wright was arrested, it was revealed that he had a tarnished military record, a drinking problem, and a history of harassing Culpeper residents. The first two problems nearly kept him from getting the job, and no one at the Culpeper Police Department will say why they didn’t. Harmon-Wright was convicted of manslaughter. On Friday, a jury recommended he serve three years in prison. Murdered by Culpepper PD

joseJose Adan Cruz Ocampo 33, July 27, 2013 Durham NC – Police were dispatched to a stabbing call. When they arrived, they found a man cut on the face and bleeding. As three police officers arrived, one noticed Ocampo had a kitchen knife in his back pocket, and the officer announced to the other two officers the presence of the knife. At least two of the officers then drew their weapons, and in English ordered Ocampo to throw down the knife. Ocampo then took the knife from his pocket by the blade and presented the handle of the knife to the officer. Someone nearby then yelled to Ocampo in Spanish to throw the knife down, and as he was handing the officer the handle of the knife, Officer R.S. Mbuthia shot Ocampo, striking him multiple times in the chest. He died at the scene. When asked whether Ocampo, who speaks only Spanish, might not have understood the officer’s commands, Durham police chief Jose Lopez replied , “No matter what language you speak, when a police officer is pointing a gun at you, getting out a weapon is not a response that anybody would think to give. You put your hands up, not go into your pocket and pull out a knife. It was a deliberate act – bringing out the knife. Ocampo failed to follow the officer’s orders to raise his hands up and instead advanced toward the officer with the knife”. Witnesses later said Ocampo was trying to hand the knife to an officer when he was shot four times. Murdered by Durham PD

Richard MairRichard Mair 43, (suicidal DOC Inmate) Charlotte Correctional Institution Sept, 2013 FL – another mentally-ill inmate, hanged himself. Mair, serving time for murder, left a note alleging a litany of cruel acts and punishments inflicted upon the mentally-ill prisoners by the prison’s corrections staff, including forcing inmates to fight each other in the yard for the entertainment of guards, they gambled while on duty, sold cigarettes and marijuana, and forced prisoners to perform sexual acts on each other threatening them if they filed complaints. Mair’s note also cited specific alleged events and named officers. Two corrections officers were suspended and one was fired in connection with Mair’s suicide, but not because of what was in the note. DOC officials concluded the suicide could have been prevented if the officers had conducted the required inmate checks. Richard Mair, committed suicide but tucked a very telling suicide note into his boxer shorts before taking himself left which alleged prisoners with mental health issues had been subject to cruel acts and punishments. “Life sucks and then you die, but just before I go, I’m going to expose everyone for who and what they are,’’ “I’m in a mental health facility…I’m supposed to be getting help for my depression, suicidal tendencies and I was sexually assaulted.’’ DOC Officials are calling this “inappropriate use of force.” Murdered by Florida DOC Guards

LavarLavar Valentin 35 (DOC Inmate) Charlotte Correctional Institution Aug. 1, 2014 FL – Valentin pleaded to be transferred because he feared he would be killed by his cellmate was found strangled in his cell by that same cellmate. Prison protocol dictates that inmates be isolated when they express fear for their lives, at least until their complaints can be evaluated. According to multiple sources, that was not done in the case of Lavar a slightly built convict who remained in a cell with his alleged tormentor, Eduardo Carmenates-Zayas. Also the prison system rules also call for corrections officers to conduct security checks every half hour. That, too, was not done. Only one corrections officer was in H Dorm, responsible for 265 inmates, at the time of Valentin’s death. That officer was by necessity deployed in a control room, not circulating to check on inmates’ well-being. The officer who would have been making the rounds had been pulled to another assignment. Valentin’s cellmate, Carmenates-Zayas, had not been charged in the death, which remained under investigation. Valentin was pronounced dead at Homestead Hospital at 2:56 a.m. One source said the dorm’s security breach happened between midnight and 2:30 a.m., as guards were taking turns watching a training video on security and staff awareness.

valdezFrank Valdes July 17, 1999 Florida State Prison FL – nine corrections officers at Florida State Prison in Starke stormed the cell of Death Row inmate at about 3 a.m. on. The officers took turns wildly beating Valdes, stomping on him so fiercely that many of his organs and bones were crushed. 22 broken ribs and fractures of his sternum, vertebrae, nose and jaw and numerous internal injuries.According to other inmates, the guards threw Valdes corpse into a hallway, cleaned his bloody cell with bleach and put him in another cell before calling 911. For months after the beating, DOC officials called Valdes’ death a suicide, insisting he inflicted his own injuries by diving headfirst off his bunk, striking the bars of his cell. The autopsy, however, clearly showed bootprints embedded in his skin. Department of Corrections fired all nine prison guards who falsified reports and used excessive and/or unnecessary force and therefore violated the department rules. Capt. Timothy Thornton, 36, and Sgts. Charles Brown and Jason Griffis, both 28, were acquitted Feb. 15 of second-degree murder. Five others still face second-degree murder charges for his death. The Justice Department will independently review the entire case to decide whether action is warranted. Murdered by Florida DOC Guards READ MORE HERE

An employee made a frantic 911 call reporting the robbery. Three minutes later, three officers arrived. The first officer through the door fired three shots, while two other officers approaching the door fired a combined total of 32 or 33 shots. The police lied saying “He charged us raising his right hand, knife above his head as I gave him repeated commands to get down on ground and drop the knife, he refused and continued charging”. However the store videos show an officer entering the store, gun drawn on Colbert as he ran toward the door with the bag of money he was carrying as he tried to bolt out the door. The officer fires when Colbert is only about a foot away, and other officers behind the first one open fire, too. Colbert staggers at the door entrance, and collapses as glass shatters in both doors cascading down onto the pavement where Colbert falls.

RonSettlesRon Reginald Settles 22, June 2, 1981 Signal Hill, CA – The incident began when he was pulled over for speeding by the Signal Hills Police Department in Long Beach, CA. He was arrested after a scuffle with SHPD white officers. The morning after his arrest, he was found severely beaten and hanging in his jail cell at the SHPD station. Police officials maintained Settles committed suicide, and no criminal charges were filed. His parents accused officers of killing their son and hanging him in a cell to cover up his murder. In a subsequent coroner’s inquest, attorney Johnny Cochran demonstrated the chokehold, which resulted in a jury’s finding that Settles had died “at the hands of another.” Moreover, the decision was reversed in court following the testimony of an expert (a Dr. Baden), who determined there was no evidence that Settles had died from hanging, but was most likely killed by a chokehold. The case was settled in 1983, and though the family was awarded $1 million dollars, no officer was ever brought to trial. Murdered by Long Beach PD

Martin Hernandez

Martin Angel Hernandez 21, March 6, 2012 Anaheim CA – The definitive back-up, it was hoped, lay in possible surveillance footage from different mounted cameras. Martin’s mother Caroline Toneygay says, “But when my daughters went to see them, Anaheim PD had already came, took down three surveillance cameras and confiscated them.” As the investigation ran its course, she was insistent about finding what truths that they might hold. “This whole time I was told that the DA was still viewing the tapes by the attorney that had put a subpoena on them,” she adds, feeling led on. “Two days after the two recent shootings, the investigative DA on Martin’s case finally calls me back to ask me what videos am I talking about.” When Toneygay responded saying the same ones she always insisted on, she was rebuked, asked “what cameras?” and told that there were never any videos that captured the incident that night. Murdered by Anaheim PD

Joel AcevadoJoel Acevedo 21, July 22, 2012 Anaheim CA – Acevedo was riding in a 2003 silver Lexus SUV driven by Vanessa Janine Duran. Jose Gaudencio Hernandez was also a passenger in the vehicle that police later reported as stolen. After police officers engaged in a car pursuit, supposedly an occupant of the car shot at police, which led to police to shoot back. the SUV jumped the curb, blowing out its front tires as the three occupants took off running. Hernandez was said to have dropped and then picked up an object as he fled. Officer Phillips stated he believed the object was a firearm. Hernandez was later detained by Officer Lambaren, but the report does not specify the alleged object or if it was ever recovered by police. Duran and Acevedo ran in different directions. Phillips, an officer involved in the fatal 2009 shooting of Caesar Cruz in Anaheim, went on to claim that a dark shadow emerged towards the front of the second vehicle and when he heard a second gunshot, returned fire shooting four rounds from his .45 Caliber Glock Pistol. “I just had a dark shadow moving,” the officer is quoted as saying. “As soon as I got the dark shadow, I shot.” The night of the shooting, a photo emerged showing Acevedo with a gun between his legs. The OCDA report noted that Phillips kicked it out of his hand as he lay on the ground twitching after the shootout. Acevedo was never armed, officers altered evidence. Vanessa Duran, the driver of the SUV that night, told OCDA investigators she witnessed an execution-style killing as officers held down her friend before firing. Duran’s account was dismissed as without merit and at odds with the evidence collected at the scene. A female resident who lives in the apartment’s right above where the shooting took place told OC Weekly she heard five consecutive shots, with no apparent gun exchange. Another resident who lives a few blocks down said she heard a loud crash then sirens blaring of at least 20 police cars, which she says drowned out the noise of the apparent gunshots. Acevedo’s family tried to cross police lines to see his body and they were not allowed. A photo has been released of Acevedo’s body with a handgun sitting between his legs (which clearly looks clearly) A handgun was supposedly found in the silver SUV driven by Acevedo, which was reportedly stolen. Three other occupants were also in the car. Officer Phillips (who received a Distinguished Service Award this May for the Acevedo incident during the PD’s annual awards) and fellow officers Trang Pham and Daniel Lambaren had the young man detained and handcuffed. At that point, Phillips fired a shot to Acevedo’s head without warning. Murdered by Anaheim PD

No Photo Available-001Michael Anthony Kerr 54, (Schizophrenic DOC Inmate) March 12, 2014 Alexander Correctional Institution Raleigh NC –
Died Of Thirst After 35 Days Of Solitary. Kerr was found unresponsive in the back of a van March 12 after being driven three hours from Alexander Correctional Institution in Taylorsville to a mental hospital at Central Prison in Raleigh. An autopsy released reports Kerr died of dehydration. The report also said he was receiving no treatment for the symptoms of his mental illness. Kerr was placed in “administrative segregation” on Feb. 5. On Feb. 21 and again on Feb. 24, records show Kerr was cited for intentionally flooding his cell. Proson officials state “The water may be cut off to prevent continuation of the misconduct or damage of the facilities or other property.” The following day, Feb. 25, records show Kerr was moved to “disciplinary segregation,” While in disciplinary segregation, inmates are sometimes deprived of basic amenities, such as bedding and a mattress for their bunk. Food rations may also be reduced to “Nutraloaf,” a hard-baked concoction containing the blended ingredients of a meal formed into a block. In an autopsy report released Thursday, Dr. Susan E. Venuti of the North Carolina Medical Examiner’s Office wrote that she was allowed to read internal prison report into Kerr’s death, though she was not permitted to make a copy. Venuti wrote that the report left unanswered key questions, including when the inmate last had food and water. Seven employees at Alexander have either been fired or resigned through the course of the investigation, including a guard captain, nurses and a staff psychologist. Murdered by DOC Officials

Tinothy HelmsTimothy E. Helms 49 (mentally ill DOC Inmate) September 5, 2010 Alexander Correctional Institution Raleigh NC – The head of the state prison system said Friday that security camera footage of Timothy E. Helms being pulled from his smoke-filled cell shows guards did not beat him. But a second segment of tape shows the inmate being taken into another cell where he was alone with up to five guards, out of view of the prison’s cameras, for 22 minutes. Reviews of the Aug. 3 incident by both the state Department of Correction and the State Bureau of Investigation have failed to determine precisely how Helms received extensive blunt force injuries that left him a quadriplegic. The prosecutor said there was not enough evidence to pursue any criminal charges was not shown footage of guards at Alexander Correctional Institution taking Helms to another cell after they removed him from the one he set on fire. Helms, who had a long history of mental illness, had been held in solitary confinement for more than a year was left paralyzed after he said he was clubbed by correctional officers after setting a fire in his locked cell. Medical records indicated Helm’s skull had been smashed. A subsequent state investigation failed to determine precisely how Helms received his injuries, and prison officials denied any wrongdoing. Helms, had been previously diagnosed with multiple psychiatric disorders, and he must have rammed his head into the cement wall. Some states have moved to curb the long-term isolation of inmates, which can greatly exacerbate such psychiatric symptoms as paranoia, anxiety and depression. The longstanding policy in North Carolina’s prison system says no inmate should be housed in isolation for more than 60 days in a stretch. Helms’ prison records showed he was kept in isolation 571 consecutive days before the fire and altogether 1,459 days throughout his incarceration.
