Detective Scott Barnes was placed back on leave that has nothing to do with the killing. I ask all citizens to contact DA Locke Bell and ask for charges to be filed for this killing. Let a jury decide of innocents or guilt. When someone is shot in the back of the head, something is very wrong. Whether misjudgement or calculated murder, a jury should decide.

I am sick and tired of cops getting away with anything they please. My sister in California was picked up for public intoxication. Between being handcuffed and jail she was beaten and raped. the police say that she was in this condition when she was picked up. If so. why not take her to a hospital instead of jail. she was held in jail for 2 days and made to shower prior to her going to a hospital. Make this SLIME pay for his crime.

I would like to know why this animal is still on the streets. we have enough to worry about without haveing to worry if our loved ones will return home from work or school. most people know that our police are the cause of most of our crimes. this time they went to far. i see an upriseing if this one is covered up. i would like to be on that jury.

This cop needs to be behind bars until he is found guilty and transfered to death row.

I only see a few people posting about this topic. IMO The reason seems to be that most of the posts "seem" to be coming from those that have either been involved in crime themselves or they see an opportunity to get revenge on the police. I see a lot of posts that "appear" to be coming from cop haters, a whole lot.

IMO That officer will NOT be tried so all those that are not hiding from the police need to rise up and be identified.

I saw a convicted felon on TV telling what he saw when Adam was shot. Gee, when does anyone want a felon telling them what happened, anywhere, especially when a police officer is involved.

That officer had every right to shoot that man in the back. You forgot to mention that the man in question had a knife in his hand, was drunk, and he refused to drop that knife. Also, you forgot to mention that the man stopped running away, and took a step towards the officer. The shot behind the ear, was most likely because the officer fired his weapon as the suspect was turning around to run again.

It is a tragedy that Adam Boone did not follow the officers command. Had Adam not been so angry that night, he would still be alive today.

IMO Never try to out run the law! I watch "Cops" on TV. Those officers go through "H."

I am sure that this is the same thoughts that the officer had before he fired his weapon. After all, he witnessed Boone on top of a man stabbing him. Neighbors witnessed the officer telling Adam to drop his weapon. Adam got up and ran, instead.

Now, you and I would have let a man armed with a big butcher knife run but that officer could not do that. He had no choice. Adam had a choice and everyone knows this.

Your reply is total bullsh#$ and speculation. witnesses stated that Adam Boone was following instructions that the murdering barnes was giving. barnes told boone to turn around, drop the knife and to get on his knees. when boone complied, barnes saw that he would lose his chance to kill and fired anyway. You should be ashaned of yourself for trying to help cover for this murderer.
