Is there anything that says "in custody"? I would think this is not the tax payers medical expense if he was not in actual custody. I was just wondering.

People resist arrest all the time... even if it is the wrong thing to do! How many people end up paralized or dead from the "trained" take down procedure? honestly?

I think if you resist arrest you are gonna get hurt. Sometimes innocent people get hurt. If you're living a sketchy life and you're a punk, bad things are gonna happen to you. Mind your business and use your head. Its that simple!

Am I hearing this right? Reeves said "Foster got out of the vehicle, grabbed a hammer from his truck and 'wailed and wailed' on the cars windshield". What REEVES, were you there NOT!!! Innocent util proven quilty - not in Coquille. Guilty until you can prove yourself innocent. And now Foster does not even have that chance. You were not there Reeves so why are you quoting what you say happened or you saw. And if you did see it, why did you not arrest Foster the day it supposedly happened. Go Work at your Caboose!

Why aren't there non-cops on the "Major Crime Team" when the incident involves the possible wrong doing of a police officer? It would seem that if the police are really doing their job correctly as they continually claim, they would welcome the ability to eliminate the bias argument against investigations of cops by other cops.

Freedom of speech? Last time I checked this was a privately owned, financed, and published website. You have no more right to say, and have posted, anything here than you have a right to sit in my living room and spout your ignorance.

After you write a comment... above the last comment made, a message will say something like "your comment has been accepted and will be checked for content before being posted"...in black ink. But if the image verication was not entered correctly there will be writing in red ink just above your post. (there have been times when I checked that it was correct but it claimed it wasn't...so there is a glitch)All you have to do is re-enter the image..it will be a new one. That may be why they aren't showing up.

"...for help in removing items from Foster’s house. While the women were on their way, Foster pursued them...". Looks like Foster was chasing after robbers who broke into his home and were making their getaway with stolen property. No big surprise that he would be angry about it, and in Texas he'd be a local hero.

SO YOU WERE THERE??? IF SO YOU KNOW HE WAS NOT AND HAD NOT BEEN TO THE ACADAMY EXCEPT FOR A TOUR. HE RESPONDED TO THE CALL KNOWING THE COMPLAINTANT WAS SOMEONE HE HAD BEEN DATING. I'M NOT SAYING HE KILLED THE MAN OR DID ANYTHING TO CAUSE HIS DEATH. I'M SAYING POOR LEADERSHIP PUT HIM IN THAT POSITION.

To R-U-SHUR at 12:35pm, That incident involved 2 police and the man was shot with his own gun as he was grabbing for it in his wasit ban. Just like this current case you should get all the facts before you talk like you were there and saw the incident happen. Dont talk or write without using your brain.

ALL of your comments are being posted. They do not appear right away. So stop being so stupid about it
Jody wrote on Jan 17, 2008 8:30 PM:
After reading all of these comments the side against the police are nasty. Makes me wonder of how miserable these people are and what kind of education do they have. I don't think anyone needs to be pointing a finger at anyone. That is not our given right. Opinions are our given right. I used to think Coquille was a nice country town to live in. But, not after noticing how awful and negatively "pointing a finger" you can be. I am sorry that those have such poor thoughts towards a necessary job.

That officer in the shooting a few years back also had stalking charges against him...They have him collecting the county trash now...but still on the payroll...crazy huh???
HOLY POLICE! wrote on Jan 17, 2008 3:27 PM:
I think all persons who are making these comments, should at least check their facts prior to making these outrageous comments. I feel these persons are making comments based on what they want to hear not on what the facts are. Lets give these officers a chance and wait until the investigation has been completed before we nail them to the cross. What would jesus say to all of you christians crucifying these persons prior to learing all that is involved. Get real and god bless!

To Honest Abe, Isn't it funny how when you question why your comments don't get posted THOSE comments get posted? By then it doesn't matter because nobody knows what your original comment was to begin with. They do it to me all the time! I know what ya mean.
LC wrote on Jan 17, 2008 2:37 PM:
Coos County Officers should not be investigating Coos County Officers. The investigative team needs to be complete outsiders to get an honest investigation into this.

WHAT HAPPENED WITH FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!! I'M TIRED OF WRITING COMMENTS FOR THEM NOT TO BE POSTED!!!!!

A press release from the Coos County District Attorney’s Office Tuesday indicated Foster resisted arrest and was pulled to the ground by the officers, who then noticed the man had stopped breathing and was limp.OK NOW DID BRYANT PERFORM CPR NO ANOTHER MAN STARTED CPR,AND THEN GOT PUSHED OFF AND THEN GOT KICKED OFF PROPERTY!!!!!!!

PREVIOUSLY AN OFFICER FROM COQUILLE WAS INVOLVED IN AN ALTERCATION WITH A SUSPECT THAT LEFT THE SUSPECT DEAD FROM A GUNSHOT WOUND. THIS HAPPENED OUTSIDE A RESIDENCE IN COQUILLE A FEW YEARS AGO. THIS OFFICER WAS CLEARED OF ANY WRONG DOING, BUT HAD NOT BEEN TRAINED AT THE ACADAMY,WAS NOT BEING SUPERVISED BY A SENIOR OFFICER AND HAD DATED THE RESIDENT WHO COMPLAINED.... DOES THIS SOUND LIKE A WELL TRAINED FORCE TO YOU????
