Cop who threatened to kill protesters shoots, kills colleague who knocked on door, affidavit says

[ForgoTheConsequence]

ALEXANDER, Ark. — An Arkansas police officer who told a colleague he would “shoot through the door” any protesters who came to his home has been charged with killing a fellow officer who knocked on his door last month, court records show.

Calvin Nicholas “Nick” Salyers, 33, of Alexander, is charged with manslaughter in the June 3 slaying of 36-year-old Scott Hutton, who was shot through Salyers’ front door.

...

According to an arrest affidavit, Salyers had previously threatened to shoot protesters through his door. Salyers, who has been an Alexander police officer since 2017, made the statement in late May or early June, when protests over the killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police officers began to get violent.

1. Wow just wow, didn't even look to see who was knocking.

Could have been some kid selling candy bars for a fundraiser.

Pigs don't even care when one of their own is killed for no fucking reason.

He'll probably go with the Self Defense defense, since he claims to have shot because he saw the dead guy's gun.

This guy enjoys killing people. No doubt about it.

3. The department starts a GoFundMe for the dead officers family,

and claims that he was 'shot in the line of duty?'
Is that how they opt out of a civil lawsuit?
