Counter Plan

The ones who were expected to be in the line of fire were those who had been under cops’ radar for hating officers or had a past history of violent confrontation with cops. Officers were often accused of using overt extra judicial means to punish suspects of police killings. Suspects' bodies usually ended up floating on city ponds and rivers; corpses cemented inside drums; bodies with nails pulled off from their fingers; temples impaled with stick; noose tightly wrapped around a neck; and not before they were savagely tortured. It was an endless history of horrific vengeance. Police used it as a deterrent to would-be cop killers and had successfully worked. Statistics on cop killings were down for nearly a decade as attested by the long stretch of zero news reportage on the subject. Blinded by their need for revenge two unenlightened characters had the brazenness to do just that—kill a cop.
