Photos of dead police officer posted outside Tennessee farm

09-10-2012 • The Sideshow

Two brothers who shot and killed a sheriff's deputy have placed photos of the slain lawman outside the entrance of their farm, calling it a "warning" to other law enforcement officials.

The Associated Press reports that the photos show the "bullet-riddled bodies" of Roane County Deputy Bill Jones and ride-along Mike Brown, who were shot and killed on May 11, 2006, after arriving at the home of Rocky Houston to deliver an arrest warrant....

A local resident briefly posted the photos to Facebook, but they were removed after a request from the District Attorney.

There has to be a lot more to this back story than the "reporter" lets on. I cannot see not guilty verdicts in two separate trials for gunning down a cop serving a warrant (and killing his ride along "Cops" sidekick). It just doesn't happen without an outraged jury and an improperly acting cop. To happen twice . . . .
