4th Division Officer Shoots Burglary Suspect During Arrest

September 29th, 2005 @ 6:28PM (19 years ago)

Its a shame it wasn't higher up and center mass. Aparently this thug comes from ca clan of thugs that have terrorized that area for years. I understand there have been over 100 burglaries in this neighborhood and it all comes back to him and a couple of others.

I am glad the Police responded so quickly and were there to end his crime spree. Now if the court system will do more than keep him for 3 years then turn him loose on society again like the rest of his family , then justice will be served.

I pray for our officers that go out and rish their lives and end up haveing to battle the same criminals over and over because of a lax "let's make a deal" system.

!0 years should mena 10 years not out in 4 with a probation on the promise you'll be good. If the DOB was going to be good he wouldn't be inprosion in the first place.

Is this the way yoo raised your child? Did you tell your child that he was being put in the time out corner for 15 minutes and then after 5 minutes you let him out? No, you made him serve his 15 minutes because you knew that if you relented then he would just think that "Mom, doesn't really mean what she says." The criminals are no different. They know that the judicial system will relent.

We need to lobby our state representetives for harsher sentencing guidlines and mandatory minimum sentencing.

Way to go Embry, you did good and I am glad you are ok. JR is nothing but a nuisance to the community. I have delt with him numerous of times, and glad to see that he got a little reality check. Now lets hope that maybe after this the courts will put him away. But we still got his sorry little brother to deal with.

It's about time to get these low lifes off the street. We all work hard for our money and the things that we buy just to have a piece of #$&% take it. There are some officers that will sugar coat these thugs by singing rap songs to them. So I am glad he faced an officer that has balls.

Hopefully the members of the 4th Division advisory board will make Officer Embry their officer of the month for September 2005.

Hopefully the Department will support Officer Embry. We will see.

James I am glad to hear your ok. GREAT job. Guess he will have to learn to do his 'personal business' with the other hand now.

Secondly, I love the liberal jouranls comments, "Both the officer and the suspect are white. The use of deadly force by police has been controversial in recent years, particularly in cases when white officers have shot black suspects". Surprised that was not the first comment made. Lets face it. Officer safety is not the most important thing on this department anymore, it's race.

THE COURTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

September 30th, 2005 @ 6:05PM (19 years ago)

The Court system in the COUNTY (District and Circuit) is the PROBLEM...PERIOD!!!!!!!!

Look at all the serious arrest that have been on the news lately and everyone HAS HAS A SERIOUS RECORD WITH PAGES AND PAGES OF ARREST! Granted, some have paid their debt, many many are just getting slaps on the wrist with CD time. THE COURTS ARE AND WILL ALWAYS BE THE PROBLEM!!!!!!

I would pay more tax money if they would tell me they would put 100% of a 2% tax hike in building an additional 2000 bed jail and keep the current 1800 bed jail running and hire Correctional officers to fill it! DAMN LIBERALS ARE KILLING THIS COUNTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ok, ive been waiting to see if the media would pound this into the ground and they didnt. Why didnt they you ask? Plain and simple, white cop & white perp. Im not being racist only a realist. If that perp was black the media would still be on this story and lmpd would make national news. You would have protesters abound hanging embry in effigy. The perp was white so no coleman, no protests, no federal investigations. Lets be honest if Newby was white McKenzie would still be here.

The Command Staff has decades of experience on the police department, and none of them have ever fired their weapon at a suspect. A good Officer always knows their limitations.

It seems the bad guys have computers too. To all you guys that support this type of behavior I say good luck. From a citizen standpoint I can tell you that another scumbag in county jail with THREE holes will be just as popular as the first guy. I know I don't speak for all of the citizens out there, but this one's got .45 reasons not to break into MY house.

It is plain and simple to me. It seems that James Bryant and his little buddys that are responding to some of these comments have really showed why they steal for a living. - It looks and sounds like they didn't finish school and if they did then they slipped through the system. For the white guy that is trying to be black it's not BRA it is BRO I understand that your momma dropped you on your head but try to pull it together. Then for the one that was bragging about how they can't be held down but is now sitting in jail. Please try to think about that one. Don't hurt yourself while you are sitting behind bars and calling your friends collect as you look out a window no bigger than a peep hole. After all is said and done I wanted to give you all hope by saying I spoke with your schools and they are aware of your intellectual level and decided to help you out and open kindergarden classes for you. DON"T MISS YOUR CHANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would be willing to bet most officers would be glad to reveal themselves so we can whip your sissy coward &#!*%... White trash piece of sh!@!!!!!

Yet another product of the publik skoolz and white trash parenting skills. Just pray that you grow out of doing burglaries before you run across some gun fanatic who quietly sits at home waiting for you to come through his window. Not everyone is as nice as the police are.

Thats fine that you say bra but it still doesn't change the fact you are saying wrong. Oh another thing before you try to tell someone off proof read before you hit submit. Think about that one. THE BAD PART ABOUT ALL OF THIS IS ARE HARD WORKING RESPECTFUL LIVING OFFICER PUT THEIR LIFE IN DANGER FOR A PIECE OF @#$% LIKE YOU. One last thing your not big or bad enough to shut my mouth. Little punks like you dont scare me because it takes 10 of you to fight one person. Like I said get balls about yourself and be a man.

From a lady that you dont scare.

War Wagon probably has a job so you probably will never find out who he is because he lives a total differnet life style than you. Maybe you should change your career and get a real job. Oh, thats right you can't you are in jail. My mistake

Its not hard to figure out that this young lad is white trash, and it is very unfortunate but this excuse for a person has reproduced and has a child.It is also unfortunate that we will probably be supporting this child till 18 yrs of age and then in a penal institution after that because he has such a strong dirtbag dad as a role model. In all reality after hearing him talk on the telephone with his babys momma and hear him cry (tears and all)about his arm pain. I can't help but think he is nothing but an angry child who had no father figure in his life or one who is following in the steps of his father. Say Hi to your Dad in the poky,

Yeah, I've got .45 reasons not to break in. Matter of fact, I've got .223 of them. Your correct in assuming I do work. Work is the thing that you can't manage to keep or even want to do. You just can't get any respect saying, "You want fries wit DAT?" So steal my stuff. I'll buy more. Act all tough behind a keyboard if that's what makes you feel better. Bra, you're a nobody.
