I hate to hear things like this...especially when it's real close to home. U.S. Marshal Derek Hotsinpiller's father and my dad were good friends.

TS1955

God bless the officers family.
At least there will not be a trial.

So sad, R I P :(

I feel for the family.
My wife was a deputy for 20yrs now retired. I was always worried something like that would happen to her.

Yes this sure is a sad day when this happen's :!: :!: Mike your wife was alway's chasing animal's :!: :lol:

Or them chasing her in some instantances. :lol:

What a shame, 1 year on the force. I dont care what anyone says about law enforcement, they should be payed like NBA stars for what they do.
Thoughts and prayers to his family and loved ones.

DAM RIGHT,
ALSO THE MILITARY,TEACHERS AND FIREMEN/WOMEN.THESE PEOPLE PUT THEIR LIVES ON THE LINE EVERYDAY.

I am ex-law enforcement and special Ops. I spent 3 years on the entry Team on SORT ( Speacial Operation Reponse Team)..If we had a warrant to serve on someone with previous intelligence that they were in possesion of a Firearm with prior's. we would catch him/her by surprise and in the open to where we can get a good visual on them before the take down..been a many of times we have acted as a postman,pizza delivery, or just some patron at the bar sitting beside the perp just minutes before the taking them down.

Search Warrants are always Hairy you never know who or what is in the house....same goes in serving a warrant to where you have BLIND entry invloved..too many unknowns/hidden places etc...that only the perp knows about...major disadvantage for law enforcement.


unfortunate Situation maybe it will get them ( FEDS) to re-visit their warrant serving approach techniques...what would it have Hurt for a little surveliance to wait for the guy to come out of the house for cigs or something ?

Anyone remember Waco Texas..another good example of sit back and wait.. ?...what a ATF Boo-Boo
