No accountability for the Thin Blue Line. Corruption at its best.
Undercover sounds corrupt. The ones doing the investigation are his friends. Need unbiased investigation. Something sketchy happened here.
No body cam what a f**king joke.
You people that are slamming the DTF officer are condemning him without waiting for the full and complete report. Didn't you hear the deceased through the weapon out the window!!!!
Something curious about this & some critical pieces of the story still missing. I have no horse in the race but have to wonder. Once the place is surrounded and the guy can’t escape, is the police presence made known to the guy? You know, the old “you are surrounded, we have a warrant for your arrest, throw your gun out the window & come out with your hands up” routine over the loudspeakers. If so, was there a response from the guy? What was that response? Depending on the answer to those, the next questions might be, At what point? in what manner? and under what guise? does undercover guy enter the house? Did he walk in unannounced? break in forcefully? Or maybe he had been there for some time with suspect fully aware of him? If everything was incognito, would the suspect have recognized undercover guy? Maybe see him as a total stranger looking to do a deal of some kind? Or maybe a friend? Or maybe an accomplice? Or maybe a cop? Or maybe a rival up to no good, at least in the suspects point of view, that might trigger a self defense response? I forget the name, but there was that guy in south Minneapolis GF riots who fired in self defense on a van full of scary looking unknowns, that turned out to be cops, who fired back, but nobody died, well, it could get complicated! No opinions, just questions. Looking forward to updates.
Comedy gold!
on March 22, 2017, Clarence Duane Huderle was gunned down by a Pine to Prairie Drug Task Force cop. Huderle was shot from 1/4 mile away by the cop using a scoped rifle.
It was not a drug bust. The P2P rogue should not have been on the scene. (EGF,Warren)
