The Bardstown Police Department chief says the the agency has received threats against its officers in the wake of the shooting of Officer Jason Ellis.The reaction by LEOs will be telling. If its another over reach I would expect to see more of this.
Ellis was shot to death in an ambush along an onramp to the Bluegrass Parkway back on May 25.
Chief Rick McCubbin confirmed the threats, but did not reveal their nature or how the department received them. He says his agency has notified the Kentucky State Police.
Police continue the investigation into Ellis' murder. A reward for information in the case has grown to more than $125,000.

Quite honestly I expected to see this much sooner.
Just a bit more civil strife...Just a few more changes to social norms....and the table will be set (especially if the economy remains weak). Police always talk about the streets being a warzone.
If this kicks off they'll find out exactly how wrong they were.
Every suspicious vehicle becomes a possible VIED every call at picked locations becomes an ambush.
ReplyDeletePolice would have to answer every call as if they were under siege and combat patrol all the way to the incident, life will resemble some third world dictatorship.
