Chapter 68: Execution of Death
For Rebecca, Ryan's loss of trace is a good thing, but for James, the unknown danger is terrifying, but there is no way, if you can't find it, you can't find it, which means that Ryan has temporarily escaped from the pursuit of the LAPD, although the headquarters and the city hall have issued a statement that he is dead, but does anyone really believe it?
After a few quiet days, there is no need to go to the substation every day to report, and sleep until you wake up naturally, which is something that many agents on duty pursue, but now, only James has done it, and he has been doing it for half a month, which is really envious of others.

Walking the dog and flirting with Rebecca, perhaps knowing that Rebecca will leave the city in less than half a month and go to study in a distant place, so he consciously meets many of the other party's requirements, whether it is reasonable or unreasonable, bear it first, and accidentally waive a lot of rent, which is undoubtedly the best news for James, who does not have much savings, anyway, George and other colleagues, since Dom's incident, have not provided much information about Ryan, so selective forgetting is an attitude to life.
James can say that he is comfortable and peaceful, but in Santa Monica and even in the entire city of archangels, a lot of things happen every day, such as this news:
LAPD's surveillance team kills three robbery suspects - Archangel Times
Three men suspected of involvement in the robbery were shot dead by nine police officers and a fourth accomplice was injured in the early hours of Monday. The officers who fired the shots were from a controversial squadron of LAPD police who witnessed the suspect forcibly breaking into a closed McDonald's restaurant in the Land of the Sun and pointing a gun at the restaurant manager.
LAPD officials said that just as the robbery suspect got into the fleeing vehicle, one of the gangsters threatened the police officers with a gun, and the officers fired 30 rounds at the new silver-gray Thunderbird vehicle. The shootout took place at 2 a.m. in front of a restaurant in a quiet district, and no officer was injured in the incident. The manager of the restaurant, who was tied up by the gangsters and abandoned in the house, was also unscathed.
The LAPD headquarters informed that the officers belonged to the Special Investigation Division of the Police Department, a clandestine organization that regularly carried out surveillance missions, and that they were spying on serial suspects. Police officers witnessed the robbery but did not enter the restaurant for security reasons to prevent the robbery.
The gangsters are suspected of being involved in multiple fast-food restaurant robberies. As they got into the car, the Special Investigation Section officers drew their guns and shouted "Police! "When a gangster was seen pointing a gun at them, the officer returned fire, according to the police.
After firing, officers found three marbles in the car and on one of the suspects, which were indistinguishable from real guns. Police said the three marbles did not appear to have been fired.
The shooting by the officer is currently under investigation. The person in charge of the investigation is Griffin. Officer Allen, yes, he is no longer in the Santa Monica subdivision, he is temporarily seconded to headquarters, and he explained to the outside world that officers have not violated the policy of the year-old department, which is that officers should protect potential crime victims, even if it may jeopardize the conduct of undercover investigations.
This policy was proposed by senior police officials in the context of a review of the procedures of the Special Investigation Bureau. A year ago, the Archangel Times conducted an investigation and found that the squadron of 19 officers often stalked violent criminals, but instead of arresting them, they waited until after crimes such as robbery or theft had occurred, often resulting in victims being threatened or injured.
Police revealed that those involved in Monday's shootout were all veteran detectives, who had worked for the LAPD for an average of more than 19 years.
Monday morning's shootout resounded throughout the commercial and residential districts, which were lined with residential buildings, restaurants, convenience stores and small service stores.
"I woke up and heard a lot of gunshots." Witness 01 told the media that his apartment on the corner of the street overlooks the place where the shooting was fired. "When I got up, the gunshots went on for a long time. I was so scared that I fell on the floor. While Special Investigations officers have been monitoring the gang intermittently since the beginning of the year, Griffin said the suspects did not commit a crime until they forced their way into the McDonald's restaurant at 9527 Foothill Avenue.
"A lot of times the police spy on the suspect and don't see the crime," Griffin said earnestly of his colleagues' difficulties and the ease of surveillance, "and we need to have a reason to stop them." No crime occurred. Once [the suspects] approached the restaurant, they might have crossed the threshold of what they were supposed to do. Despite this, Griffin revealed, the officers decided to stay put, fearing that storming the restaurant to arrest the assailants would jeopardize the restaurant manager's safety.
"We made our decision based on the fact that since there had never been an injury in any of these serial robberies, instead of bursting into the restaurant, it was better to wait outside and let the suspect come out on his own." Griffin explained.
On Monday, the police did not disclose the names of the three gangsters who were killed, and the injured gangster, named Fraces, is 19 years old and a native of Hollywood. He was seriously injured and received two shotgun shots (not all of them) and is currently hospitalized at the nearest medical center. The LAPD explained that Fresis would be charged with murder after being discharged from the hospital because he was responsible under California law for the deaths of people in the crimes he was involved in.
Griffin revealed that since September, LAPD departments have begun to investigate the robbery that occurred in the Archangel City district, McDonald's restaurant. Detectives and McDonald's security officers believed that the assailants were familiar with the operation of the restaurant, so several employees were questioned by the police and underwent polygraph tests.
An employee who failed a polygraph test was fired, but police had no evidence to arrest him. The City of Archangels' police station, this downtown McDonald's restaurant robbery is very similar to the other six cases that have occurred since January, five at a McDonald's restaurant and one at Carl Jr. According to the police, in each of the robberies, the perpetrators were aware of the business operation process, often breaking into the restaurant within a few hours of closing and threatening the manager on duty alone to open the safe at gunpoint.
In accordance with the process and deployment, officers of the Special Investigation Section began tracking a former McDonald's employee in early January, and on Sunday night they saw him meeting with three men in Venice, who then drove a bronze Thunderbird to the Land of the Sun, which belonged to one of the men.
Around midnight, the four men arrived at the McDonald's restaurant, which was about to close for business. The four men parked the Thunderbird on the side of the street and observed the restaurant from the window. At 1:15 a.m., there was only one night manager in the restaurant, twenty-eight-year-old Orr. The three gangsters got out of the Thunderbird and walked into the restaurant.
Griffin said one man walked through the front door and two tried to break in through the back door. Orr heard the sound of the door being broken and called the police. However, members of the patrol squadron were not dispatched to the scene after the report was received, as officers of the Special Investigation Section were already there to monitor them.
Griffin said that because the suspects were divided into two groups, officers did not arrest them immediately. Officers saw the two suspects move through the back door to the side door and finally forced their way into the McDonald's restaurant.
At that time, all four men entered the restaurant. Orr was tied up and pointed at gunpoint, and later she opened the safe. Police said the suspect took thousands of dollars.
Half an hour later, the gangsters walked out of the restaurant and walked to the Thunderbird across the road. After they got into the car, four unmarked vehicles with eight police officers approached the Thunderbird, and another officer ran over.
Mr. Griffin said the officers identified themselves at the time and wore vests with the word "Commando" written on them, chanting "police" in front and behind the Thunderbird.
"As they approached the vehicle, they saw a suspect pointing a handgun in their direction," Mr. Griffin said, "and one of the officers immediately shouted to his companions: 'Look, they have guns!'" "That's when we had several officers firing at the vehicle." The suspect in the passenger seat immediately fled from the car. He was armed with a pistol, and several officers immediately opened fire on him. All the bullets were fired in a matter of moments.
Griffin said that after one round of shooting stopped, two officers approached the vehicle and fired four more shots inside because they "saw two people moving, leaning over the ground looking for something, and there was a gun there."
Griffin revealed that officers fired a total of 23 shotgun rounds and 12 point 45 caliber pistol rounds at the suspected robber.
Several residents of the area said they were awakened by the sound of police gunfire.
"My husband shouted at me to call the police," Claudie recalled, and her apartment also overlooked the crime scene. "I looked out the window and said, 'Look, the police are there.'" "The defense lawyer at the opening of the civil lawsuit claims that the LAPD Special Police is the "killer" court: this case will focus on the tactics adopted by the Special Investigation Section, which killed three robbers. A lawyer representing the family of a gunshot dead by a police officer before a court hearing in a civil lawsuit on Thursday called the police officers who killed three gangsters in the Sunland robbery "police badge killers" from a controversial unit at LAPD headquarters.
Lawyer Rambo made the charge in a civil case before the U.S. District Court, which will focus on the tactics employed by officers of the police's Special Investigation Division during the shootout. The Special Investigation Division of the Police, consisting of 19 members, is dedicated to monitoring suspects in serious crimes.
The families of the three deceased persons killed in the shootout, as well as the family of a suspect who had been wounded by a gunshot, accused the Special Investigation Section of officers of the Special Investigation Section of being "death squads" who followed the suspects, allowed crimes to occur, and often shot and killed prisoners when they came forward to arrest them.
"What they're doing is trying to end the lives of the people they're tracking. Rambo said this to the ten juries who listened to the case.
City of Archangel Prosecutor Turham countered that the police were in place and that the Special Investigation Division was an important part of the police. "It's an indispensable department, and most police stations have it," he said, "and it's especially important in the Archangel area, which is three hundred and sixty-five square miles and where criminals move around like police." "The judge expects it will take two weeks to investigate and hear the civil case. The lawsuit named the members of the Special Investigation Bureau, the Superintendent of Police and Mayor Tom, as well as all former Superintendents and other responsible persons of the Special Investigation Bureau since its establishment 25 years ago. Rambo believes that these officials have provided an environment in which such an obscure organization as the Special Investigations Section has been active for so long. After a lengthy police investigation into a string of fast-food restaurant robberies, a shootout in front of a McDonald's restaurant on Foothill Avenue finally took place.
Special Investigation Section agents followed the four men intermittently for three months, until they saw them break into the McDonald's restaurant, which was closed at the time and contained only one manager, L. Orr, who was on night duty.
The men tied Orr, gagged her and blindfolded her, and then stole $14,000 from the safe and left the restaurant.
As the four men got into the fleeing car, Special Investigation Unit officers began to approach them, some on foot and some by car. The police said the two assailants pointed guns at them, and the officers opened fire, killing the three and hitting Fresis in the abdomen. Police said they seized three pinball guns that resembled handguns.
The police later explained that they had not arrested the culprits in time before the robbery because the four men were moving too fast and were scattered in different parts of the restaurant.
The question of whether the man in the car was armed during the shootout will be a key issue in the interrogation. Rambo said they had no weapons and had been shot dead in the back.
The first witness, Witness No. 01, said that the robbers had put their weapons in their suitcases before they got into the car, and that the police had opened fire a few seconds later. Fresis is serving seventeen years in prison for robbery.
In his opening remarks, Mr. Trump strongly objected to the assertion, saying that the two robbers had pointed their weapons at the officers and caused them to open fire. "Officers have the power to defend themselves," he said, "and they don't have to wait for someone to shoot them." ”
Although this is not James's case, it still inspires many people in the bureau, not only George, his friend Walker, and Superintendent Michael!
