Samantha,

It is up to officers like your uncle and like yourself when you become an officer to ensure these types of animals are weeded out of the system before it gets to this point.

When that the good officers start doing this instead of just ignoring the issue for fear of retaliation (because retaliation does happen), then those of us who are cynical will begin to respect police more.

But until that happens, it’s pretty difficult to trust officers.

Although extreme, this is not an isolated issue.

But I appreciate your comments and your disgust. He is lower than an animal.

I first want to put out there that I am an avid supporter of police officers and the work that they do. My uncle proudly serves with the NYPD and I myself hope to start the Academy as soon as I graduate from college. That being said…Christopher Lloyd is an animal. The beating of a 15 year old and the raping of that woman should never have happened in the first place because once he shot someone 24 times, he should have been thrown UNDER the jail. He didn’t shoot just anybody…he shot his ex-wife’s husband. Clearly he was not acting as an enforcer of law and trying to defend himself; he was acting on jealous rage. And to shoot someone in front of his CHILDREN?! Even if it was one shot instead of 24, that is reprehensible. The Dolton Police Department needs to take some of the blame. He was already suspended (which is pretty disgusting…that’s not even a slap on the wrist, more like a caress), did they not think to investigate WHY? Or did they just ignore it? Either way its despicable. I included my earlier disclaimer because I do not believe that all police officers are as vicious and clearly disturbed as this individual, nor do I believe all police departments act as irresponsibly as Chicago and Dalton. I disagree with a previous comment that claims that the police are not here to protect and serve the common citizen. But I do agree that it is people like Christopher Lloyd who erode the public’s trust in men & women in uniform, and these offenders need to be dealt with as severely as a civilian would.

Wow and one was to think that the us is the land of the free this kind of attitude from the police department and the judical system for calling this selfdefense is unacceptable.

Why is this not the hottest topic on the news???
The only place I’ve read/seen it is here.
I guess the Liberal news outlets are too busy hammering Obama for real news!

He needs to be unmercifully stretched open in a maximum security prison.

Think about the reality of shooting a guy 24 times.

No way anyone is still standing after begin shot six times so the guy was probably on the ground while the guy hovered over him unloading at close to point blank range. Watching the guys face and body explode into red spongy bits while he’s begging for his life, then stopping to reload before unloading the rest of the bullets into a lifeless body.

That wife is going to get paid.

Kudos Carlos. I haven’t heard about this anywhere else but here…

Don:
“Christopher Lloyd” “chicago police department” on google returns 137 results. Switching Dolton for Chicago gives only 52 results.

Compare that to:
“obama” “Nobel Prize” with 18 MILLION results.
or:
“rodney king beating” with 2.4 million results.

52 does not make “A lot of press”
it makes “zero press”
If i hadn’t read it here, i’d never have heard about it.

[...]Officers name is Christopher Lloyd, which could be a nom de guerre assigned[...]
I’m guessing, if this is true, that his name is really close to that, and that they changed it to lloyd to get search hits with the guy from back to the future.
That’s messed up, if true.

This is a troubling story that received a lot of press. But I don’t think it belongs on this site. The subject of police taking improper/illegal action against photogs is a big subject. Posting “all bad things cop do caught on tape” dilutes the original purpose.

If I were raped by this guy I’d probably blow that entire station up. People really need to start doing this. Teach them just how badly a rotten apple can spoil the bunch…

Goddamn we need a Dexter.

now i totally respect the police the law enforcement officials, but because of that they need to be held to professional standards and also,
thats why all parents should teach their kids black karate’ that particular cop should have had his neck broken, when he started picking on unarmed citizens.

The only reason anyone would have to shoot another is if the one being shot is a zombie. So, was the shooting victim an undead? I can see two or three shots; but two, maybe three clips worth?

And then… why he body-slams a a 15 year old special-ed child half his size? I mean… wow…
