» Berkeley Man Murdered While Police Monitor #OccupyOakland March – Big Government.
A 67 year old Berkeley resident called into a non emergency line to deal with a trespasser, who has since been identified as Daniel Jorden Dewitt. The officer who offered to respond to the call was told not to go, because the Police effort prioritized to the Occupy Oakland march to UC Berkelely.
Later the victim’s wife heard him calling for help, and dialed 911. His murderer had hit him with a flower pot and dragged him to the bushes. This was deemed high enough priority for a response, but as you know, law enforcement is not really a crime deterrent. They just clean up the mess. The victim, Peter Cucktor was pronounced dead at the hospital.
