LATimes-Former law enforcement officers appear to plot to kill police critic and activist Shaun King

[DBoon]

Prominent racial justice activist, police critic and writer Shaun King published a blog post Thursday detailing what he says appears to be the first steps of a plan to kill him devised by several former members of local law enforcement.

King, 40, posted on Medium that he became aware Tuesday of a chat between onetime police officers from Long Beach and other agencies on a private Facebook group that “were openly plotting and planning my assassination.”

Although King said receiving death threats was common and daily, most were meant to intimidate rather than “appear to be imminent threats of physical harm.”

He included several screen shots and excerpts of the conversations among the posters, which included their identities.

A screenshot showed a retired Long Beach officer, Laura Tartaglione, saying “I think California needs to start putting a team together of retired military, police, and NRA Members.
These criminals that the Democrats created need to be stopped.”
Another officer, Roy Brokaw, said, “I’m with you brothers and sisters for justice. And I’ll be there. Tell me when and where. Does anyone know where this Shaun King can be found?”
According to the screenshots, another officer, Chris Sanford, added, “Toss this guy from a helicopter,” and a retired LAPD officer, Jerry De Rosa, said “Need a sniper.”

6. King made sure the Long Beach PD would investigate,

and through them the FBI. These really stupid people are in trouble, even, should it be the case, if the comments never reached the legally actionable active plotting stage.

Unbelievable. Did they retire before Barney Fife learned to google?

“I’m with you brothers and sisters for justice and I’ll be there. Tell me when and where.” ... “Need a sniper[?]” ... “[tossing] this guy from a helicopter.” ... “retroactive birth control, or post birth abortion, whatever you want to call it.”

... “ready to rock and roll” ... "organize it.” ... “Roger that, Laura.”
