Our local newspaper, the
Lorton's World, reported today that Tulsa County Assessor Yazel, shot and seriously wounded a "suspect" in
OKMULGEE County (Hectorville = Boondocks).
Bet that hurts some, having your HIP shot off.
It's
ROUTINE I suppose for a Tulsa County ASSESSOR to shoot a man in Okmulgee County?
Hmmmmmh?
Seems our
Fearless Fosdick of an Assessor likes to do
Ride-Alongs with the County Mounties, so that he can strap on that big
GUN.
So, that everyone will say, "My, that's a
big one you have.
PLEASE, Mr. County Assessor, show us how
BIG your gun is......"
Their cover story is that the suspect was struggling with another Reserve Deputy (and fellow
Assessor's Office employee), and trying to get his gun. Uh, just maybe the "suspect" was trying to keep the
Reserve Deputy (Mr. Pound, who has been suspended before - for CAUSE), from
USING the firearm, out of
FEAR for his life???
Of course, the County Sheriff will investigate
HIMSELF. And, I expect he'll
CLEAR himself, too. And promptly. Got that "
Justifiable Shooting" Rubber-Stamp handy, Deputy?
By the way, why exactly does a warrant need to be served at
12:15 a.m.? Was our local County Assessor planning on actually coming into
WORK at
8:30 a.m. this morning in
our Assessor's Office??
Hmmmh?
Or, is serving an early
A.M. warrant more likely to
INCREASE the likelihood that a "suspect" will react violently to a possible
HOME INVASION, from parties unknown?
It definitely gets
LEO wannabees like Mr. Yazel some "justifiable homicide" trigger-time.
Then, the suspect can be gunned down with
IMPUNITY.Like last nite.
Wonder if there are any
INDEPENDENT witnesses to this shooting, or just the wounded man, and the Deputies who are busy now rehearsing their stories?
TOO BAD, they didn't
VIDEOTAPE the early A.M.
No-Knock Raid....
Wonder what
TULSA COUNTY's CIVIL LIABILITY is in this case, if the shooting turns out to be be litigated by the wounded man?
And, WHO pays the wounded man's substantial hospital bills??? Tulsa County, or Okmulgee County?
Hmmmmh?
