Introduction


On Sunday, July 13, 2008, Twinsburg, Ohio police officer Joshua T. Miktarian was gunned down during a traffic stop by a crazed murderer. This case was interesting because of several factors. One was the defense's motive: self defense! Two was that this did not need to happen. The killer was stopped for playing loud music. And third was that the murderer had no prior criminal record. Nothing in this case adds up.
Read the newspaper stories and judge for yourself. I present these stories as they were printed. I will be adding more as they are printed. This is an on-going blog untill this case is finished. So check back from time to time and read more about this cold-blooded murder of a great cop.

I keep adding more to the story as the newspaper prints it. Check back to read more as it happens.

In your opinion, from what you've read about the case, Is Ashford Thompson guilty?

What would be a proper sentence for a cop-killer?

The scumbag, Ashford Thompson, STILL has not gone to court. What is the holdup here??? They said that they had his trial set for October. Now it's been delayed. This is the justice system that we have. They don't even think much of their police officers if they can't give them justice. What about officer Miktarian's wife and daughter? Don't they count? They need to know that justice has been served in this case. I guess we'll just have to wait. I will post results here as soon as they come. IF EVER!!!
