Thread: Updates on Costco Police Shooting in Nevada

  1. #1

    Updates on Costco Police Shooting in Nevada

    Erik Scott was shot by Police under questionable circumstances outside a Costco store in Summerlin, Nevada. Here are some updates:

    It appears that the Police have released previously sealed divorce records in an attempt at character assignation. As many people who have been divorced will explain, the attorney for the woman will often recommend getting a restraining order against the male, making up stories if necessary. While information in these divorce cases may be true, it is not a reliable source of information. It is "he said", "she said" in the heat of a divorce.

    The Police have also released a story that Erik pulled out his gun when his neighbor's dog bit him. They have been digging as deep as they can for any dirt.

    In related news, the coroner's inquest has finally been rescheduled, and will be televised! It is scheduled to start on Sept. 22nd, and is expected to take at least three days. It will be televised in Clark County on Cable Channel Four.

    Out of every one hundred men they send us, ten should not even be here. Eighty will do nothing but serve as targets for the enemy. Nine are real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, upon them depends our success in battle. But one, ah the one, he is a real warrior, and he will bring the others back from battle alive.

    If Costco looks like they are doing anything under handed I hope there is some sort of organized boycott or organized mass subscription cancellation is in the works.

    I have no reason to shop there these days anyway since the ones by me are not cost competitive especially when you add in the subscription. They also do not sell anything that I cannot already get at the local grocery stores. The one by me used to have a superior meat and shellfish department that was cost competitive to boot but not anymore.

    Those who prefer character assassination to video recordings did something on those recordings of which they are ashamed.

    Not surprised. I'd rather face chaos head on then be "protected" from it by this "thin blue line." Which, IMHO, has actually gotten quite thick.

    That blue line is still pretty thin, IMO. Those guys are used to shift work and going home. Try really being on where you might get 24 hours sleep in a week of alert and reaction duty.

    No, I don't dispute your assertions about readiness. In agreement there.

    My post about the line getting thicker regards the expanded size and scope of the domestic police force.

    Nope, just the "investigators".

    It was sent to a well connected "lab" Where is will be examined and either altered or destroyed as necessary.

    Never mind the fact that anyone with limited and minimal computer experience could have viewed and uploaded it to you-tube within minutes after the incident.

    The inquest has started, is anybody able to watch it in Nevada?

    Bombshell witness: Costco employee claims that he did pull out the gun and point it at Police.

    They are also saying that he was a prescription drug addict and seeing a shrink...(edit: multiple doctors, not sure if any were psychiatrists)

    Wow, that witness came off as,,,less than credible. To my ear anyway.
    And what is the digging dirt about,, and how is it relative?

    I do wish someone with an ounce of integrity would leak that video footage.

    Extensive story at that link.

    Costco is saying that the surveillance system hadn't been working for days. The hard drive was sent to Seagate for analysis, but no data was found after the point where the system (hard drive) had failed days before.

    Officer who did the shooting testified that Erik had pulled out his gun, but it turns out it was in the holster. Erik said "I have a gun", which is apparently what CCP people are told to do? Officer took it as a threat, and didn't know that the gun was in a holster. Officer also did not recall correctly all of the words said, as audio recording contradict what he thought happened. Pretty typical of human memory, but suspicious in this case. The fact seems to be that the cop told him to drop the weapon. When Erik took out the weapon in the holster to drop the gun, the officer plugged him. Boils down once again to an overly jumpy and trigger happy officer. A new profession seems in order for this guy, and a serious look needs to be taken at training for all law enforcement in the US. Every single citizen is not a crazed killer, and should not be treated as such.

    .
    If the system was not working why would the drive be removed for analysis?

    And as others have mentioned, this system has redundant off site backups,,where they also destroyed?

    If that video had shown the man pull a gun it would have been on the 6 o'clock news that day.

    After the shooting it was removed. There would plenty of evidence if Costco really had scheduled a repair with their support company before the shooting. You would think that it would be required as evidence to back up Costco's claims.

    Lierley also testified he was aware that the video recording system at the store wasn’t working. He had contacted Vegas Valley Locking Systems, the local company that provides technical support for the surveillance system, the Wednesday before the shooting. A repair appointment had been scheduled for the following Monday.
