Washington State has lost 5 police officers since 10/31 in senseless ambush style killings. One on 10/31 while he was sitting in his patrol car, and four officers on 11/29 while they were sitting in a coffee shop doing their paperwork preparing for the day. There were 4 men and 1 woman officer, all were fathers or a mother, husbands and a wife, sons and a daughter.

The coffee shop attack was a complete ambush, the gunman walked in an opened fire on them. The shooter has since been shot and killed himself when he was approaching another police officer.

Please remember these police officers families and children in your prayers. Thank you for your time and thoughts.

To the loved ones...

Prayers to one and all of our law enforcement community.

Prayers sent!

Breaks my heart, will keep them close in thoughts and in my heart.

Thank you all for your kind prayers. Such a horrible loss.

The background on the shooter is unreal -- was out of Arkansas. Had been SENTENCED to 108 years as a youth but Governor Huckabee commuted his sentence due to his youth or some reason some years back. Then he came up here, apparently because he had relatives here. He was arrested in Tacoma for Assault, and Rape of a Child 2nd and was on bail, if you can believe that!!!!!

Now they are rounding up all who helped him, 4 friends/family drove his getaway care. His 2 sisters bandaged up his gunshot wound he received in the shootout. I suspect they are going to be sorry they became involved with the jerk and his murderous scheme.
