First get home.

Received some of the straight scoop not reported in the news (at least not yet). This was absolutely brutal! in humane is so under worded. I can't speak on what I know yet, but I'm sure in time it will come out. The shooter deserves everything and trust me what he deserves only God can give him. His justice is no where close to being within our power to make the punishment fit the crime.

**kjlaw** · 08-17-12, 02:56 PM

I unfortunately can not provide much in the way of news due to being in Little rock at a Conference at the time but I can say that this was an outright attack on Law Enforcement by a group that as Creole said deserves a punishment that no man can give.

I was close friends with all involved and can only pray that peace and comfort find the hearts of the family of Brandon and Jeremy and that Scott and Jason make full recoveries.

I had a lengthy conversation with a friend and former co worker from their department. He called needing to vent. If all goes well I may accompany him to go see the surviving officers Monday.

Give them our best.

Evil men do not understand justice, but those who seek the LORD understand it fully.

Brandon was Jp's FTO at Jefferson Parish when he hit the road. Not sure if JP is even on this forum but many know him from the other unmentionable forum, he's having a rough go at it. All of our area's honor guard is going.

Prayers to those involved. The death penalty is too easy... these turds need a permanent address in the darkest, dankest corner at Angola.

Suspects in deputy killings linked to ‘sovereign citizens’ movement

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — At least some of the seven people arrested in a fatal shootout with Louisiana deputies have been linked to violent anarchists on the FBI’s domestic terrorism watch lists, a sheriff said Saturday.

DeSoto Parish Sheriff Rodney Arbuckle’s detectives and other law enforcement discovered the suspects were heavily armed adherents to an ideology known as the “sovereign citizens” movement.
The FBI has classified “sovereign citizens” as people who believe they are free from all duties of a U.S. citizen, like paying taxes. The FBI considers the group’s members a danger for making threats to judges and law enforcement, using fake currency and impersonating police officers.
The seven suspects have been charged in the shooting of Deputy Michael Scott Boyington, who survived. But authorities have said murder charges are pending.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation said it was investigating the killings but declined to comment Saturday and referred questions to the Louisiana State Police, the lead investigating agency.
Arrested were the group’s apparent leader, 44-year-old Terry Smith, his wife, Chanel Skains, 37, and his two sons, Derrick Smith, 22, and Brian Lyn Smith, 24. Also arrested were Brittney Keith, the girlfriend of Brian Smith; Kyle David Joekel, 28, and a woman living with him, 21-year-old Teniecha Bright.
Brian Smith was charged with attempted first-degree murder and the others with related charges.
Detectives in Tennessee, Nebraska and Louisiana have sketched a portrait of an outlaw gang led by a 44-year-old accused molester named Terry Smith, who has a criminal record dating to 1984 in Morehouse Parish, the Times-Picayune reported Saturday.
Morehouse Parish Sheriff Mike Stubbs said the Smith family was notorious. He said they lived for a long time in a house on the outskirts of Bastrop.
