		<description>I kept having nightmares last night after reading &quot;John&#039;s&quot; post on this story and his SHEEPDOG post on the funeral story. 

I &quot;see&quot; this &quot;WOLF IN SHEEPDOG CLOTHING.&quot; 

He has an image of himself that he is a &quot;Saint&quot;, out there protecting all of us citizens, and we don&#039;t like him, and the criminals don&#039;t like him, but he is such a &quot;saint&quot; that he takes all the abuse and keeps on doing his job protecting us. 

Then the real &quot;WOLF&quot; comes out in him and he makes a joke about the &quot;dead guy&quot;. 

This really chills me to the bone. It makes me even more afraid of the LEO&#039;s that are supposedly protecting us. 

What makes you such a &quot;Saintly&quot; investigator, that would make a joke about a &quot;dead guy&quot; that one of your fellow officer&#039;s shot. Did the officer&#039;s that shot him laugh at your joke? Did the family of Williams laugh?

I still feel sick to my stomach. And I feel such sympathy for the family of Williams who are trying so hard to not blame the police, and then read a comment from one of you who make a joke out of it, and then post on the other story how &quot;saintly&quot; you are.</description>

I&#039;m glad you responded to my &quot;allegations&quot; as you fulfilled my purpose; to get someone to set the record straight, since neither the city of Atmore nor Atmore Police will provide relevant details. 

Your service to the community is appreciated.</description>

		<description>Re: Law&amp;Order May 27 8:28am

You are obviously Monday morning quarterbacking without a CLUE regarding EMS so let me set a few things straight. 

First, lifeflight WAS called but was UNABLE to fly. Anytime we have what might be a call warranting lifeflight, they are called en route. This is easily verified.

Second, since lifeflight was unable to fly and the patient was not stable, FLORIDA AND ALABAMA STATE PROTOCOLS dictate that the patient is taken to THE CLOSEST FACILITY FIRST, which was Atmore Community Hospital.  
(You cannot travel an hour down the road with an unstable patient from the scene bypassing a facility that has physician, many more hands&amp;equipment and the ability to stabilize the patient FIRST.)  

Third, once the patient is stablized at the closest facility, they are then transferred to an appropriate facility that will accept the patient. Sometimes facilities are over run and on bypass,sometimes there isnt a specialty physician that is willing to accept the patient, whatever the case. Also, lifeflight status was AGAIN checked on and they were still unable to fly. So that is why he had to be transferred by ground ems once he was stabilized to the physican that accepted him.

Fourth, and this point clearly shows Law&amp;Order doesnt know what he&#039;s talking about, Florida EMS was not called because the area that this occured is covered by Atmore Ambulance under contract with Escambia County Florida and has been for years!!!!  This is thier area and they are the CLOSEST ALS service. Thier paramedics are Alabama AND Florida certified and have been providing the extreme north end of Florida ems service for many years.  ( Would you have liked to have waited on a Florida Unit to come from a MUCH greater distance??)

Oh and by the way, since this was a Florida call for Atmore Ambulance, all communication went through Florida so everything is recorded and verified. Florida run reports are generated and go directly to Escambia County FL EMS.  So get OFF your ridiculous idea that Florida was &quot;conveniently not summoned&quot; in order to provide a cover up. Atmore Ambulance runs this area for Florida, are Florida certified units and personnel and communicate directly with Florida on these calls.     

And last, autopsy results and other information, including the EMS&amp;hospital reports are all made readily available and turned over to the FDLE.

Law&amp;Order, you have the right to your opinions and freedom to speak. But you surely need to make sure you have your FACTS straight and know what you are talking about before making such ignorant and inflammatory comments.</description>

You missed the boat on my post.  Williams was removed from the jurisdiction that would have ensured FDLE&#039;s presence in the eventual autopsy.  By the way, was an autopsy actually conducted?</description>

		<description>John, 
Please tell me you are not the same person who posted the &quot;Saintly&quot; story on the other story &quot;Funeral Services&quot;. 

What a sick, disgusting, thing to say. &quot;To the dead guy I say this, “You wont do that again, will you?”
 No wonder there are people who feel negative about cops.  

I hope you and your friends got a good laugh out of that one because you actually made me sick to my stomach.</description>

		<description>Pensacola wouldn’t have the opportunity to do an autopsy on Williams’ in the event he died, which would then make all the evidence available to FDLE for its investigation.

Since the shooting occurred in Florida, regardless of who does an autopsy, if one is done, the FDLE will still be able to obtain a copy of the report since they are the investigating agency. This would be called disclosure of evidence.</description>

		<description>First of all, I would like to say THANK YOU to all who have shown love, support, and concern over this situation. Danny was my only sibling and I am going to miss him deeply. Words can not express how confused I am on all the details surrounding this whole event and I pray that in the end I can find closure. For all of you who have jumped to conclusion about my brother or the police officers involved, I have to ask all of you …How do you think it makes all of the people involved feel to read all of your negative and childish comment concerning these turn of events. Please get some self respect and keep all your negativity to yourselfs (and read the rules about posting through this site)! Furthermore, how about we all wait until ALL of the facts are in, because I promise all of you, that the story goes on. Rest in peace big brother….I Love you and I will miss you!
You Are Forever In My Heart,
Your Baby Sister</description>
