LAPD sets large reward for renegade former cop Christopher Dorner

$1M reward for information as to the whereabouts of renegade LAPD cop Christopher Dorner. The reward was set after a fruitless weekend where Dorner appeared to evade arrest. “Why so large?” Police Chief Charlie Beck asked during a press conference. He then proceeded to answer his own question: “This is an act, and make no mistake about it, of domestic terrorism. This is a man who has targeted those who we entrust to protect the public. His actions cannot go unanswered.” source

The LAPD will reopen a disciplinary case involving renegade former officer Christopher Dorner, who was fired by the department after an incident which he later referenced in a lengthy manifesto, the L.A. Times reports. More details:

Chief Charlie Beck is reopening the investigation because he wants “to insure the public that the LAPD is fair and transparent,” Cmdr. Andrew Smith said at a late-afternoon news conference at LAPD’s headquarters downtown.

Dorner was stripped of his badge in 2009 after a police disciplinary board found him guilty of making false statements against his training officer, Teresa Evans. In August 2007, Dorner accused Evans of kicking a mentally ill man during an arrest in San Pedro.

The internal affairs investigation concluded that she had not kicked the man and that Dorner’s statements were false.

Dorner has killed three people, including a Riverside police officer, and injured others in a campaign to take revenge on those he blamed for his dismissal from the LAPD, police said.

Dorner is currently suspected of being in the San Bernardino Mountains. His manifesto explained, in great detail, why he felt he had been wronged by the police department.
