Chicago police officer investigated for three shootings, two of them fatal - chicagotribune.com is this normal for a cop to be involved in 3 shootings in 9 years?
maybe he should work in your town. after all hes a good cop and not doing anything wrong huh?Sounds like he was just taking out the trash

They just got lucky and caught the would be Dexter early.Serial Killer? A little premature.
So you approve of standing over a prone suspect and shooting him repeatedly in the back as he lies on the ground.
Got it.
Maybe someday someone will do that to you, and I'll buy them a beer.
When your opinion counts, let me know.
He was a crap magnet
did he execute people laying face down and not resisting?Hmmm, well I worked with an officer that had at least 2 if not 3 fatal shootings before he retired. The last of which was the killer of the Butler Officer Davis back in 2004. He was a crap magnet. He found armed robbers, carjackers, burglars, murderers, like no one else. He had a nose for it. If a bank robbery was broadcast on the other side of the city, he would start looking for the suspects and more often than not, found them. He was the only guy I know that would take a stolen vehicle report, go on vacation and while on vacation out of town, find the car that was reported stolen to him. He would just stumble on that stuff. Should he have been investigated?
I have it on authority that most CPD officers never unholster their weapons in the course of duty during their careers. Maybe a slight exaggeration. But this... If you catch the BG in the act, sure, but unless he was still actively resisting.
If police start executing suspects, how long until felons figure out their only chance of escape is to kill the officers.
Then you would truly have the Wild West on big city streets.
I worked with a couple of guys like Denny describes. Not our job to condemn the CPD officer, especially without all the facts. Give the system an opportunity to work through this.Hmmm, well I worked with an officer that had at least 2 if not 3 fatal shootings before he retired.

why even investigate him, obviously you guys already know what happened in each individual case have the proof he is dirty and is a "serial murderer" so lets just execute him... Right?
Oh you just heard what the news said? well we all know the news is always 100% accurate and up front with all the info.
You're talking about people shooting officers, but that's not the case here. It's being reviewed. If it turns out justifiable, fine.Seems to me I remember two or three Chicago cops being murdered while off-duty in the past year - one while he was coming out of the precinct after getting off shift. I'd say war has already come to Chicago.
And since the shooting in question is already being re-reviewed by the FBI, the department, and an apparently independent review committee, what's the beef? If he can't justify the shooting, he'll be charged and tried. And, you never know, it might have been a righteous shooting, after all.
