Shem Walker's relatives were filled with sorrow and anger after leaving the medical examiner's office in Brooklyn, three days after the 49-year-old Army veteran was gunned down by a police officer.
"They're in shock. Right now, they're feeling shock about the loss of their loved one. At this point in time, they want to let the facts unfold. What they want is justice," Sanford Rubenstein, one of the family's lawyers.
But Walker's daughter couldn't contain her frustration.
"Those sorry bastards," screamed Shemeka, 22. "They killed my father!"
Police said Walker stumbled into a buy-and-bust operation near his mother's Lafayette Ave. stoop in Clinton Hill. An unwitting Walker confronted the undercover cop.
"There was a fracas, a fight, where the officer ... was struck several times by the deceased," Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said Tuesday.
The 36-year-old cop, whom police haven't identified, struggled with Walker when the gun went off twice, hitting Walker once in the chest. Kelly said 18 "earwitnesses" only heard cops urge Walker to stand down.

Chicago Police Misconduct: 'Repeater' Officers Account For Millions In City Payouts
Ex-Police Officer Paul Carrier in Prison....
In May 2011 Paul Carrier, 31, a former Humboldt, TN police officer was sentenced to prison for shooting unarmed Roy Glenn Jr. in 2009 following a traffic stop and chase.
Carrier testified his gun accidentally fired while he was trying to arrest Glenn. How many times have we heard that tired excuse?

Unarmed Shot and Killed at his Family Reunion
Unarmed Bernard Monroe Sr. died on February 20th, 2009, a white police officer in Homer, Louisiana gunned down the unarmed 73-year-old black cancer survivor in his own home during a family reunion and then allegedly attempted to tamper with evidence to make the shooting appear to be a case of self-defense.
Bernard Monroe, who was frail and had lost his voice due to throat cancer, hosted a small family reunion on February 20th, 2009 in the small city of Homer, Louisiana. The reunion gave him the opportunity to spend time with his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. His son, Sean, was among those in attendance.
Police were also looking for Sean Monroe that day, as they thought he might be a witness in an upcoming case. Two white police officers interrupted the gathering searching for Monroe, who fled into his father's house.
According to witnesses, officers did not follow normal police protocols in pursuing Sean Monroe. Officer Tim Cox charged towards the Monroe home, saw the elder Bernard Monroe on the other side of it, and shot him repeatedly through the screen.
Cox said he mistook Monroe's sports drink bottle for a firearm, shot him,
Cox refused to call an ambulance to treat Monroe--instead asking for backup with an "Officer in distress" code. The other officer then allegedly put on gloves and moved Monroe's rifle, which he kept on the porch for self-defense, close to the body so that it would appear that he was armed at the time of the shooting.
The family settled the case for 125,000 dollars.

Unarmed Dexter Luckett
Died Dexter Luckett, a 23-year-old black man, was shot and killed by Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputies Wednesday, June 16, in the 16100 block of Eucalyptus Avenue in Bellflower, according to Los Angeles County coroner's records.
Lakewood station deputies responded to a call of shots fired about 9:43 p.m., according to a sheriff's news release. When they arrived at the location, they contacted several informants who confirmed they heard gunshots in the area.
One of the informants "directed the deputies to the rear of an apartment complex" where authorities located Luckett, who they said matched the description of the shooter given by the informant.
A deputy ordered Luckett to raise his hands, walk to the radio car and place his hands on the hood. At first, Luckett raised his hands then allegedly dropped his left hand toward his waistband. According to sheriff's officials, at that point the deputy again ordered Luckett to raise his hands and he complied, but as he reached the hood of the car, he quickly dropped his left hand to his rear waistband area, out of the deputy's view.
Believing the suspect had retrieved a weapon and in fear for his life, authorities said the deputy fired one round from his duty weapon, hitting Luckett in the upper body.
However, in preliminary findings from the coroner's office, it was found that Luckett was shot twice, once in the arm and torso.
After the shooting, Luckett was taken to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead at 10:27 p.m., according to coroner's records.
No deputies were injured in the incident. Authorities said no weapon was recovered at the scene.

What Killed Aiyana Stanley-Jones?
Aiyana Jones
Since I have covered unarmed shootings there are two cases that standout as the most violent of these tragedies. The killing by a police officer in Detroit of 7 year old Aiyana Jones and the shooting death of Tarika Wilson in Lima,Ohio. Ms. Wilson's baby was also wounded and loss a finger to amputation. Both of these deaths were the result of the police conducting raids on their residence. And in both cases the individuals the police were looking for were not even on the premises.

Trayvon Martin Witness Believes 'He Intended for This Kid to Die'
Trayvon Martin, 17, was fatally shot by neighborhood watch leader George Zimmerman.
(SANFORD, Fla.) -- A closer look at the witness statements and audio testimony taken in the immediate aftermath Trayvon Martin's death provides the first insight into George Zimmerman's behavior after he shot the unarmed teen. A man listed as witness 13 was one of the first people to approach Zimmerman minutes after the shooting. He saw him bleeding from the back of the head and nose. Zimmerman asked the unidentified man to call his wife for him.
"Let her know what's happening, been involved in a shooting and will be held for questioning," the witness told the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. "He was more like, talking like he was having a hard time, looked like he just got his butt whipped ... not like he was in shock, not like, 'I can't believe I just shot someone,' but like, 'Just tell my wife I just shot someone,' like it was nothing."
A woman identified as witness 5 walked out of her home after hearing the altercation to find Zimmerman standing over Martin's body. She said she asked him what was going on and he curtly said just,
"Call the police."
The woman told police that Zimmerman, 28, examined Martin's body as he slowly paced back and forth when the police arrived. She watched as they checked the teen's body and turned him over, eventually starting CPR. But he was already dead for five or 10 minutes, she said.
"I do honestly feel that he intended for this kid to die," witness 5 told investigators. "If you're in self defense, shoot him in the leg. He's a 17-year-old, scrawny little kid. You get into a physical fight with him. ... I think the kid was running for help."
Zimmerman is charged with second degree murder for the Feb. 26 killing.
Martin was in Sanford, Fla., while serving a suspension from his Miami school for being caught with an empty marijuana bag. At the time of the shooting, he was staying at the home of his father's girlfriend. An autopsy found THC, the intoxicating chemical in marijuana, was in his system.
At 7:11 that night, Zimmerman, a member of the area's neighborhood watch, had called 911 to report a suspicious teenager. Minutes later, the police dispatcher told Zimmerman to stop follwing Martin. Moments later, Zimmerman got out of his car. That's when the two met and Martin was killed. Zimmerman has claimed that when he shot the 6-foot, 160-pound teenager he was on his back and Martin was astride him pounding away.
The key problem facing investigators is an 80-second gap between the time Zimmerman hung up with police at 7:15 p.m. and when the first 911 calls from terrified neighbors began flooding in. A man identified only as witness 6 told investigators that he heard a commotion coming from the walk behind his residence. He witnessed a black male wearing a dark-colored "hoodie" on top of a white or Hispanic male who was yelling for help. Police said the witness elaborated by saying the black man was mounted on Zimmerman and throwing punches "MMA" style, meaning mixed martial arts style. The witness stated that the man on the ground yelled out for help.
Witness 6 said he was going to call for police when he heard the "pop" of Zimmerman's gun.
"When I looked down, I saw the person that was on top was laying in my grass in a sprawled position," witness said. "Saw another guy with his hands in the air, saying, 'The gun's on the ground, I shot this guy in self-defense.'" Police said they believe Martin noticed he was being watched and "was in fact running generally in the direction of where he was staying as a guest of the neighborhood."
Multiple witnesses and injuries sustained corroborate Zimmerman's account that he was involved in a serious altercation with Martin, one that police say could have been avoided if he did not leave his car as directed by the 911dispatcher. The investigator said the tragedy was avoidable.
Witness 3 said the timing was terrible. "I saw the police arrive. And they were literally like 5 seconds too late -- like right after the gun went off. Like, they were literally that, that, that short a distance late," the witness said.
Daycare worker, Marissa Jones, says she'll never forget what she saw.
ROCKFORD ILLINOIS: DEATH IN A BLACK CHURCH
Mark A. Barmore
It started around noon when someone reported a domestic dispute.
The suspect was 23-year-old Mark Barmore, also known as Mark Stevens. His biological father's last name is Stevens. But his foster parents changed Mark's last name to Barmore when he was a child.
Barmore was wanted on a warrant, and was involved in another domestic dispute the night before.
"My concern was for the children," says daycare worker, Sheila Brown. "I wanted to make sure they were okay. I tried to push them as far back into the corner so they wouldn't see anything."
"When I looked behind me - as I was guarding the children - I saw the officer standing over the man, shooting him," Sheila said, "He was already shot, but they shot him again on the ground."
"He could've tased him, sprayed him with mace, hit him with a stick," Marissa adds. "Why did they have to take his life? That's something you can never give back to somebody."

Barmore was wanted on a warrant, and was involved in another domestic dispute the night before.
Two Rockford police officers spotted him near the intersection of Palm and Church. When they stopped to talk with him, he ran into the Kingdom Authority Church. They were told he could be armed with a knife. The church is connected to the House of Grace Daycare and Preschool.
"My concern was for the children," says daycare worker, Sheila Brown. "I wanted to make sure they were okay. I tried to push them as far back into the corner so they wouldn't see anything."
There were ten kids in the room when the officers caught up with Barmore.
Although Sheila blocked the kids from seeing what happened, they heard the gunshots. Police Chief Chett Epperson says both officers fired, because Barmore put up a fight.
"In the scuffle, the suspect had gotten a hold of the officer's gun," he says.
But witnesses say there was no fight, and they didn't see Barmore with a weapon at any point. That's why they think police used unnecessary force.
"When I looked behind me - as I was guarding the children - I saw the officer standing over the man, shooting him," Sheila said, "He was already shot, but they shot him again on the ground."
"He could've tased him, sprayed him with mace, hit him with a stick," Marissa adds. "Why did they have to take his life? That's something you can never give back to somebody."

The Deadliest Cop in Oakland
by D. Large
Police officer Pat Gonzales has a reputation as mean as the character Alonzo Harris in the movie "Training Day", Gonzales is also known as a "dirty vato" on the streets of Oakland. A 10-year veteran, Gonzales has been involved in the deaths of two African-American males and the serious wounding of another.
One witness, Ailene Romero, said she never saw a gun, and Gonzales shot King as he was running away.
Police officer Pat Gonzales has a reputation as mean as the character Alonzo Harris in the movie "Training Day", Gonzales is also known as a "dirty vato" on the streets of Oakland. A 10-year veteran, Gonzales has been involved in the deaths of two African-American males and the serious wounding of another.
Gonzales was also involved in the SWAT Team assault on an apartment where Lovelle Mixon opened fire with an AK-47 assault rifle killing Sgt. Ervin Romans, 43, and Sgt. Daniel Sakai, 35. Sgt. Gonzales was wounded in the gun battle. Some newspaper reports indicate there was a very good chance Gonzales killed Mixon, making it his third kill as an Oakland police Officer.
In March 2002 Gonzales shot his first victim 19 year-old Joshua Russell, 19, of Hayward after he and an accomplice tried to rob a man at gunpoint in the parking lot of a Burger King restaurant.
Then in 2006 Gonzales shot and paralyzed 17-year-old Ameir Rollins. Mr. Rollins was shot after he cooperated with Gonzales and threw down his weapon, and "look at the result," said Rollins' attorney, David Kelvin.
The city of Oakland settled with Mr.Rollins for 100,000. But before Mr Rollins received his compensation officer Gonzales had shot and killed 19 year-old Gary King in 2007.
King was shot twice in the back after he broke away from Gonzales during a struggle that Gonzales said King reach for the weapon.
One witness, Ailene Romero, said she never saw a gun, and Gonzales shot King as he was running away.
"There were a lot of young people there, and people just started screaming," Romero said.
Joyner said King refused repeated commands by Gonzales to surrender. Gonzales told investigators he fired twice at King when he continued to try and pull the gun out while turning to get away from him.
King was taken to Highland Hospital where he later died.
"He laid there and died right in front of us," said Shamar Bell, who said he witnessed the shooting and said he had known King since grade school. He said he did not see the officer pat King down before detaining him."(Gonzales) put handcuffs on him while he was on his stomach (in the street) in front of us," Bell said.
"If he so feared for his life, why didn't he call for backup?"
At one point during the struggle, witnesses said, Gonzales held King by his braids as he tried to break free and escape.Anela Hobbs said she saw Gonzales use his taser several times on King and saw King reach deep into his low-slung pants. Gonzales then let go of his braids, she said. King had turned to run away when the officer shot twice at him.
"I don't know protocol. I don't know policy. I just know life," Hobbs said. "It was a lose-lose situation all around.
"Romero said seeing King handcuffed after being shot was distressing. She questioned why the police would not aim for King's leg instead of shooting him fatally.Both practices are Oakland police policy in such cases.
"He was a good kid and was straightening out his life," said one of King's friends, who was with King when the incident began and saw the shooting.
Semir Jehar, who was working at a shoe and clothing store that day on Martin Luther King Jr. Way, ran outside when he heard the commotion.When outside, Jehar said he saw King cooperating, but when Gonzales tried to subdue King, he resisted and tried to get out of Gonzales's hold.
"I thought the police officer maybe shot him with rubber bullets," Jehar said.
"The police officer shouldn't have resorted to his gun."
Larry Rollins best summed up the communities feelings about Gonzales when he said, "He beat my son, and he murdered my son. This man is a cancer in our community. He is a disease in the body, and he must be removed."
Gonzales, promoted to Sargent for his kills,today remains the deadliest cop on the streets of Oakland.

Judge says State Police can keep internal reviews secret - News - The Charleston Gazette - West Virginia News and Sports -
One of the major problems that exist in police organizations is the lack of accountability by departments to adequately identify officers who have established patterns of abuse through public complaints and then apply the appropriate discipline. A statistical study may even conclude a correlation exist between officers that have numerous public complaints filed against them with accompanying higher rates for discharging their weapons than officers with fewer public abuse complaints. It goes without saying, "the departments know their bad apples and they consistently work to protect and exonerate their illegal actions." The public has a right to know what officer may be professionally unfit to perform the job.

Open Letter to U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder
May 15, 2012
Hon. Eric G. Holder
Attorney General
U.S. Department of Justice
950 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW
Washington, DC 20530-0001
Dear Attorney General Holder:
In February 2009 you provided your personal assessment of race relations in this country when you stated, "We are a nation of cowards" because "we, average Americans, simply do not talk enough with each other about race."
Those were provocative words that sparked a debate about Americans' unwillingness to talk about race. Mr. Holder I call on you again to engage the nation once more in an ongoing and honest conversation about the disproportionately high number of unarmed minorities in this country dying at the hands of white police officers.
Recently under your leadership a number of investigations have been initiated around the country into police departments in violation of individual civil rights. Your departments comittment and perserverance to get to the bottom for the truth in New Orleans during Katrina recently resulted in the conviction of several police officers.
Police shootings of unarmed minorities in this country continue to occur at an alarming rate in both urban and rural parts of the country. I'm requesting and urging the Justice Department to identify and expand their investigations into civil rights violations by local and state law enforcement agencies under “Color of Law” doctrine which prohibits these agencies from depriving individual rights, privileges, and immunities protected by the U.S. Constitution.
I would also request that the Justice Department determine to what extent the issue of race contributes to these shootings in the country.
I'm also making a personal request to you to address the nation in a news conference and express your concern about the shootings of unarmed minorities in the country. There needs to be a rekindling of debate over the adequacy of police training and issues of race as relates to confrontations between police officers and people of color
Due to the gravity and controversial nature of this matter, I respectfully urge you to undertake this debate with all deliberate speed.
Respectfully,
Dietrick Large

Paul would always make racist comments about black drug dealers… In my opinion this was a hate crime and the Police Dept should of done more of a screening process on him before they hired him.
May Justice be served for the victims family. Thoughts and prayers for the wife and children of the Roy.
