"Hmmmmm..... Ok..... I'm gonna say one thing... Just one .... And if I offend anyone then I DON'T GIVE A F**K!! Ok sooo where's the justice for Jennifer Bean? The first JENNIFER this POS killed? Yea it was a traffic accident... Show remorse and ask forgiveness.... I saw or heard NADA.... But I did see and hear a pitiful excuse of a man say "if she had yielded to my blue lights she would still be alive!" ..... Dash cam showed he was traveling so fast and out of her line of sight she never saw it coming. THANK YOU JESUS FOR THAT!! I feel bad for his children... I'm really not a vengeful person... But I'm on my knees praying that every inmate he meets finds out he's a former police officer.... I hope he sees my sisters face every night in his dreams... I hope he lives a longtime and suffers knowing he took a amazing ladies life... OOOO wait TWO ladies lives..... I would gladly end that suffering for him but he doesn't even deserve that bit of mercy in my book. Did I offend?? Tooo harsh you say... Well in that one single act of neglect he killed my whole family!!! He exploded my world. He crushed two good men. My dad & Bobby Bean both never recovered from that blow of losing my sister!!! So if your disturbed by my comment than tuff shit!! I've had 12 long years of HELL to deal with it. An if there is a God in heaven then he will answer my prayers and let MR BREWER (he is a disgrace to all officers by calling him FORMER) he will let mr brewer get a taste of what HELL will be like!!! I never thought I would truly HATE & would tell my son to never HATE.... It's wrong. But I'm sorry Lord forgive me but I do hate the mere mention of Danny's name."

Former sheriff’s deputy accepts plea deal in wife’s murder, gets 15 years

By J.J. Kindred
Maryville Daily Times
1 November 2012

Alcoa, Tenn. -- A former Blount County Sheriff’s Office deputy has pleaded guilty to the murder of his wife last year.

Danny Ray Brewer, 38, pleaded guilty to the second-degree murder of Jennifer Brewer on Sept. 8, 2011, in a plea deal made in front of Judge Tammy Harrington and Assistant District Attorney Shari Tayloe in Blount County Circuit Court this morning.

With his attorney, Tommy Hindman, by his side, Brewer made the plea and agreed to serve a 15-year sentence, including time already served since last September.

Brewer was scheduled for a jury trial on Nov. 13 before he agreed to make the plea deal.

Judge denies bond reduction for ex-Blount County officer accused in wife's killing

By Natalie Neysa Alund

November 9, 2011

MARYVILLE — A former Blount County law-enforcement officer accused of fatally shooting his wife testified Wednesday that if a judge reduced his $950,000 bond and he made bail, he'd appear back in court.

"I'm not gonna run from this. I've never run from anything in my life," Danny Ray Brewer, 37, pleaded from the witness stand during a bond-reduction hearing before Blount County General Sessions Judge Michael Gallegos.

But a recorded jail tape played moments later by Assistant District Attorney General Shari Tayloe proved Brewer a "liar," she said, and in the end, the judge denied the bond-reduction request made by Brewer's public defender, Mack Garner.

"What have you done? Why did you do this?" a woman, Pamela Gregory, on the jail tape asks Brewer just hours after he was arrested on a homicide charge, testimony showed.

"It was an accident. You gotta get me out of here so I can flee the state ... Come with me," Brewer in the tape tells Gregory, who works for AA Bonding Co. in Blount County — a woman he admitted in court Wednesday was his lover of 11 years.

Brewer, of Maryville, is accused of killing his 29-year-old wife, Jennifer Brewer, at their Sevier Avenue apartment Sept. 8. She was taken to Blount Memorial Hospital, where she died. Her husband, a former deputy with the Blount County Sheriff's Office and former officer with the Rockford Police Department, was arrested at the scene.

Court documents show she died as a result of a shotgun blast to her chest, and Blount County Sheriff's Office Detective Sgt. James Trentham on Wednesday testified that when he arrived on the scene, he found Danny Ray Brewer naked in the living room covered in blood.

"He said it never should have happened, the safety wasn't supposed to go off," Trentham testified.

In the jail tape, Brewer tells Gregory: "I didn't mean to do it. She knows it. I saw her face when it happened. I gave her CPR and everything. I tried to save her. I called 911. I screamed for an ambulance. That (SOB) was half-cocked. It went off."

"Do you love me?" Gregory asked.

"I love you enough to run with you." Brewer responded.

Shortly after, Tayloe stopped the tape recording and called Brewer a liar.

"You just can't ignore those statements," Gallegos said, then denied Garner's request to reduce Brewer's bond to $10,000. Gallegos also postponed a preliminary hearing to Dec. 14. Garner had asked for the continuance until he received reports on Jennifer Brewer's autopsy and ballistics tests.

Gregory, who sat in the courtroom Wednesday, declined comment except to say, "I did not volunteer to help him in any way."

A former Blount County law enforcement officer appeared in court Friday on criminal homicide charges involving the death of his wife.

Danny Ray Brewer, 37, was appointed a public defender, attorney Mack Garner, to represent him.

Blount County Assistant District Attorney General Shari Tayloe will be the prosecuting attorney.

Brewer and the attorneys are to appear again Friday in the Blount County General Sessions Courtroom of Judge Michael Gallagos to determine how the case will be handled. This will involve such things as setting a date to hear motions.

Bail for Brewer, who has been in Blount County Jail since being taken into custody, remains at $950,000.

Blount deputies answered a call of a shooting at 11:19 a.m. on Sept. 8 to an apartment complex on Sevier Avenue.

There they found a naked Brewer screaming and covered in blood in his apartment, according to the police report. He was escorted from the room and the gun believed to have been used in the shooting was recovered.

They found his wife, Jennifer L. Brewer, 29, lying face up on the bed and bleeding from a large wound on the left side of her chest.

She was not breathing and was later that day pronounced dead at Blount Memorial Hospital.

Danny Brewer was first held for investigation in the case and then charged with criminal homicide.

Brewer is a former Rockford police officer and Blount County deputy who was involved in a May 2000 fatal crash while en route to assist a deputy.

Brewer was serving as a Rockford police officer on May 16, 2000, when he was involved in an accident that killed Jennifer Lowe Bean, 29, of Jackson Hills Drive, Maryville, according to Daily Times archives.

THP trooper dies after cruiser slides off road during ice storm

KnoxNews.com

A Tennessee Highway Patrol trooper died this morning after his cruiser slid off a road in Corryton, state authorities said.

Trooper Michael Slagle died of what appeared to be natural causes after his cruiser slid off Longmire Road just before 7 a.m., said Jennifer Donals, THP spokeswoman.

“There is an investigation, but he passed way from what appeared to be natural causes,” she said.

A Rural/Metro fire truck sent to the scene on Longmire Road also slid off the road and toppled onto the disabled cruiser that was down a 10-foot embankment.

None of the five firefighters aboard the truck were injured.

Slagle at 6:51 a.m. reported his cruiser had slid off the road near the intersection with E. Emory Road. Slagle lives in the area.

Emergency personnel, however, had trouble reaching the injured trooper because of icy roads.

When the fire truck slid into the cruiser, it injured a man who had gone to check on Slagle. That man was loaded aboard a four-wheel drive vehicle with paramedics and taken to a hospital about 10 a.m.

The man’s name and condition were not available this morning.

Meanwhile, icy trouble spots are continuing to pop up on streets across Knox County, particularly to the south and in Halls, according to officials

Brine trucks have been out since early morning salting the roads, though their effectiveness could be waning as temperatures hover below freezing, said spokesman Michael Grider.

Tenn. Trooper Dies After Fire Truck Lands on Cruiser

A Tennessee Highway Patrol trooper suffered a fatal heart attack after his cruiser slid off an icy road before a fire truck landed on top of it early Friday morning.

Trooper Michael Slagle, 53, was near the intersection of Longmire Lane and Emory Road near Corryton when it left the road around 7 a.m., according to WATE-TV.

A Rural/Metro fire truck lost control in the same area, slid off the road and landed on top of the cruiser while Slagle was still inside.

It took until around noon for crews to extricate the trapped trooper -- who was unconcious -- and were unable to revive him.

Officials said that the cause of death was from an apparent heart attack.

Slagle spent 26 years with the Tennessee High Patrol.

"He was a model trooper and a good man. It is a very sad day for our Highway Patrol family and all who knew Michael," Colonel Tracy Trott said. "Our prayers go out to his family during this difficult time."

One firefighter and a civilian sustained minor injuries and were transported to local hospitals.

Slagle is survived by his wife and one daughter.

Funeral arrangements are pending.

Flipping Off Police Officers Constitutional, Federal Court Affirms

WASHINGTON -- A police officer can't pull you over and arrest you just because you gave him the finger, a federal appeals court declared Thursday.

In a 14-page opinion, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit ruled that the "ancient gesture of insult is not the basis for a reasonable suspicion of a traffic violation or impending criminal activity."

John Swartz and his wife Judy Mayton-Swartz had sued two police officers who arrested Swartz in May 2006 after he flipped off an officer who was using a radar device at an intersection in St. Johnsville, N.Y. Swartz was later charged with a violation of New York's disorderly conduct statute, but the charges were dismissed on speedy trial grounds.

A federal judge in the Northern District of New York granted summary judgement to the officers in July 2011, but the Court of Appeals on Thursday erased that decision and ordered the lower court to take up the case again.

Richard Insogna, the officer who stopped Swartz and his wife when they arrived at their destination, claimed he pulled the couple over because he believed Swartz was "trying to get my attention for some reason." The appeals court didn't buy that explanation, ruling that the "nearly universal recognition that this gesture is an insult deprives such an interpretation of reasonableness."

Finally we can do something, small though it may be, to counter the spreading phash ism.

Cops get paid way too much for what they do, the local sheriffs where I live are paid 300 percent of the national individual median average wage. In addition to getting a whopping three times more than the average Joe they harrass and bother, they have platinum benefits. All paid for by the taxpayer, in the service of enforcing inequality and laws increasingly benefitting the oppression of the ruling One Percenters. Cops jobs are not even in the top ten of the most dangerous jobs, and they choose to accept the dangers inherent with their work.

it's a good ruling but i still wouldn't recommend doing it since the cop will use his "BlueCode" buddies to get back at you. Only difference between cops and gangs are the uniforms

Cops are the worst criminals. You love criminality? This is the second post I noticed that appears to come from one of the 6 people in the US who've never been wrongly accused by a cop who doesn't care whether he's right or not. Keep the faith. They'll get you sooner or later, and you'll be shocked. Repeat after me: I can't believe they would purposely lie. You'll be saying it soon.

I have in my own lifetime and personal experienced actually witnessed at least five police officers lie under color of authority, two falsified a police report and three lied in front of a judge regarding a traffic violation they trumped up against me. (My lawyer succeeded in using their own conflicting lies to exonerate me!) Anyone who defends law enforcement today is really willfully blind to their criminal actions.

Funny, because I was arrested for that in 1984. A bit different then the story above. I had already been harassed by the same officer a few hours earlier. He was a real piece of work. He actually called in reinforcements. Within 10 minutes, not less than six cars had arrived, including state police and DEA. The DEA guy was also a payload. I eventually told him he could leave his weapon with his colleague if he wanted to boogie. I was released after 5~minutes behind bars, after the Sherriff's department realized that one of the charges was NOT GROUNDS TO ARREST ON. Simple as that. All charges then were dropped. I was told I had a good civil case but never pursued it. Anyway, I am now good friends with a few police but they are decent people. My closest police buddy is a chief and is the closest thing that exists to 'Andy of Mayberry'. Which brings me to primary the reason why I wrote this post. He (the chief) has been victimized by his own officers. He is too strait for them and they prefer to jack around. Since he is also a kind-heart, he lets them get away with it and that only emboldens them. A group of officers signed false a complaint against the chief and when he beat the charges, two apologized. A couple of months later, the same two did it AGAIN. Moral of story: This country is going down the toilet~~PLENTY.

When I was a law enforcement officer I can say that I never saw anyone flip me off. Maybe because I treated them with respect and tried not to give them a reason to act or display themselves in a foul manner. Sad to say that there are many officers that don't deserve the respect that their badge promotes. " Protect and serve" to some means nothing. I respect them for what they have to go through but also believe they should not mar the authority given to them.

So the court ruled the cop lied under oath, correct? And in an official capacity? I suppose he gets a pass for perjury. We need a national three-strikes law for police: falsify an arrest report, attack a suspect without cause, violate the public trust in any way, go directly to jail, be banned from law enforcement for life, and lose the right to bear arms. Really sould be a one-strike law, but hey. But I'm glad to see a court show some sense for a change.

Whaddaya call 800,000 cops at the bottom of the sea? Freedom.

So if it's Constitutional with the police, it's surely Constitutional to give the sign to a member of Congress. After all, all 535 of them have given us the finger for years....

You hit that out of the park, however your wrong about them giving us the finger, they insert the finger, its also called rape in some circles

Proof that ETR is censored by the Police State (How to Beat Redlight Camera Tickets)

RE: ETR Forum - Traffic Cameras

"Last month, the New Jersey Department of Transportation released its report on 24 red-light camera intersections in the state and found that rather than preventing accidents, the cameras seemed to increase accident rates. In the year before the cameras were installed there were 577 accidents at those locations, versus 582 accidents in the 12 months after the cameras were installed, thanks in large part to an increase in rear-end collisions. One thing some drivers have pointed to is the seeming shortness of yellow lights at intersections outfitted with cameras. In some instances, such as in June in New Jersey, subsequent examination by local DOTs found that indeed some yellow lights were dangerously short. Now a class action lawsuit in New York is claiming that lights in the city are rigged with short yellows in order to hand out $50 tickets. States are required to adhere to the Federal DOT Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Streets and Highways, which states that yellow-light timing should meet engineering standards. Most take that to mean a minimum of 3 seconds or longer according to a formula based on posted speed limit, reaction times, and stopping distances. The yellow timing formula actually recommends a 4.3-second yellow for a intersection on a road with posted 45 mph speed limit. Practically speaking, if the purpose is safety, then many intersections need longer yellows since drivers don't travel at exactly the speed limit (say 40 mph in a 35 mph zone). Furthermore, many intersections are located in less than ideal locations, on hills or curves and set up decades before red light cameras were conceived. So a 3-second yellow may not be sufficient to prevent accidents where panicked drivers are trying to avoid tickets. In fact, in New Jersey the DOT sets such lights on 45-mph roads at 5 seconds (6 seconds is the recommended maximum).

"I personally hate the entire idea of the cameras installed/run by contractors for the sole purpose of issuing tickets and making money. I think if the municipality really thinks the cameras are a necessity, they should install them and use them for accident investigation, not as a means to make money for doing nothing."

"My big issue with the traffic cameras is even if you think you're innocent it will cost you more to contest it then it does to go ahead and pay it. The one camera ticket I got I knew the intersection was a camera intersection. When the light turned yellow as I was coming to it I goosed the throttle just a bit to make sure I cleared it. I didn't realize it was a speed camera as well. The throttle goose got me a ticket where I probably would have not gotten one for the light. Ah well. Gotta love Oak Ridge's back roads, lol."

"Yall remember the Kville hero with the high powered rifle...."

CORRECT Answers:

1. Correct in every jurisdiction including Knoxville and Oak Ridge. No jurisidiction obeys the UMTCD, TDOT or TN Code which requires a traffic engineering survey before installing any traffic control device thus all traffic tickets are illegal. According to the attorney for TDOT, after a public records request filed by the Dragonater, the mandatory traffic engineerign survey speed audit was never performed on US129 "The Dragon" at Deals Gap, thus the posted 30 mph "speed limit" defaults to 65 mph under TN Code, according to the Blount County public defender's office and Blount County district attorney general.

Tennessee Code 55-8-153 Establishment of Speed Zones.
(a) The department of transportation is empowered to lower the speed limits prescribed in § 55-8-152 in business, urban or residential districts, or at any congested area, dangerous intersection or whenever and wherever the department shall determine, upon the basis of an engineering and traffic investigation, that the public safety requires a lower speed limit.

"No traffic or engineering study had been performed as required in order to establish a thirty-mile-per-hour speed limit. The judgment of the trial court is hereby vacated, and this case is remanded to the court below for further proceedings in accordance with this opinion. Costs on appeal are taxed to the City of Oak Ridge." -COURT OF APPEALS OF TENNESSEE AT KNOXVILLE, CITY OF OAK RIDGE v. DIANA RUTH BROWN, No. E2008-02219-COA-R3-CV, MAY 8, 2009

"Dear Mr. Lee (a/k/a "The Dragonater"): Please find enclosed the Road Safety Audit Review of U. S. 129 from North Carolina State Line to Tabcat Bridge in Blount County, dated July 25, 2007. We have no record of a Traffic Engineering Survey and/or Speed Audit for this location."
-Marion E. Hilt, Staff Attorney, TDOT, Tennessee Open Records Act Request, February 23, 2011

2. These are FOREIGN military contractors in Australia, England and Communist China that keep over 50% of all ticket revenue = TREASON to outsource US police services, US court system and US govt, and TREASON to pay tax revenue to a foreign nation.

"Redflex Group is based in South Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Redflex Holdings Limited was listed on the Australian Stock Exchange in January 1997.

3. Best defense is FREE -- ignore the ticket and never appear in court. Recognize a bluff when you see one. I love red-light camera tickets. I think all police should be replaced with traffic cameras.

"It is extremely easy to beat this type of ticket in court. Your easiest defense is to simply throw the ticket away. If it does not come with a return receipt that requires a signature, there is no proof that you actually got the ticket." -Norman G. Fernandez, attorney, How to Beat a Speeding Ticket - Photo RADAR

"When you receive a general post letter advising you of your photo radar citation, you have the option of just ignoring it. All states have guidelines on how the citation must be served. In effect, your payment or appearance at the courthouse is your acceptance of service. By not responding to the letter, you are refusing acceptance of service. In addition, none of the departments are making personal service to anyone that lists a PO Box as their mailing address on their vehicle registrations."
-Lt "Radar" Roy Reyer, Maricopa County Sheriff Office, Phoenix, Arizona, Your Photo Radar Defense - Ignoring The Letter

"The civilian board that oversees the Los Angeles Police Department has put the brakes on the city’s red-light traffic camera program. An audit last year questioned the effectiveness of the program, finding that a majority of citations have gone uncollected. Commissioner Alan Skobin says that since the courts don’t pursue drivers who refuse to pay the tickets, the camera program lacks enforcement power. The problems for red light cameras go back to 2009 when CBS2/KCAL9 Investigative Reporter David Goldstein found there is no evidence the cameras reduced accidents, deaths or injuries at the intersections where they were placed and in fact, found those numbers actually increased at some intersections."

"Defendants-appellants appeal from a superior court judgment vacating an order of civil sanction entered by the Paradise Valley Magistrate's Court on a civil traffic complaint issued to plaintiff-appellee Jeffrey Tonner. Appellee filed a special action in superior court to vacate the order of civil sanction, arguing that the Paradise Valley Magistrate's Court lacked personal jurisdiction when it entered a default judgment against him. The superior court judge found that service by mail under Rule 4.1(c) of the Arizona Rules of Civil Procedure (formerly Rule 4(e)(7)) was not completed prior to entry of judgment and that the judgment entered was void. On February 11, 1990, the photo radar device operated by the Town of Paradise Valley detected a vehicle registered to General Motors Acceptance Corporation ("GMAC") traveling at an alleged speed of fifty-six miles per hour in a forty mile per hour zone. A summons and Arizona traffic ticket and complaint were mailed to GMAC alleging a violation of Ariz.Rev.Stat.Ann. ("A.R.S.") @ 28-701 (1989), driving at a speed greater than is reasonable and prudent. GMAC forwarded the summons and complaint to appellee and his wife, the lessees of the vehicle. GMAC also sent the Paradise Valley Magistrate's Court a copy of its transmittal letter to appellee. The summons and Arizona traffic ticket and complaint were reissued, naming Tonner as defendant and the vehicle's driver at the time of the alleged violation of section 28-701. On March 7, 1990, a copy of the summons and Arizona traffic ticket and complaint and two copies of the notice and acknowledgment of receipt of summons and complaint were sent by first-class mail to appellee with a return, postage-paid envelope. The summons directed appellee to appear on March 22, 1990, in the Paradise Valley Magistrate's Court. Appellee never signed and returned the notice and acknowledgment of receipt of summons and complaint nor did he appear on March 22, 1990. On that date, based on appellee's failure to appear, the allegations of the complaint were deemed admitted, and an order of civil sanction was entered against him. The Town of Paradise Valley argues on appeal that use of first-class mail for delivery of a summons and complaint is sufficient for service and to obtain personal jurisdiction over defendants in civil traffic matters. We disagree. The requirements for service under Rule 4.1(c) are clear. We agree with the superior court judge that the order of civil sanction entered against appellee by the Paradise Valley Magistrate's Court is void for lack of personal jurisdiction. We affirm the judgment of the superior court."
