that detectives with the Dallas Police Department recommended not placing Riser on administrative leave"because it could possibly compromise the case."
Her remarks followed Riser's arrest on Thursday. He has been charged with two counts of capital murder in the killings of Lisa Saenz, 31, who was found shot dead in the Trinity River in March 2017, and ofRiser was being held Friday on $5 million bond after a court appearance Thursday night. Court records don’t list an attorney for Riser, who told the court he would hire one.
When Riser was first identified as a person of interest, police working alongside the Dallas County District Attorney’s Office determined there wasn’t yet enough evidence to charge him, Hall said. Eddie Garcia, who became chief last month, said a witness told police in 2019 that they kidnapped and killed Saenz and Douglas on Riser’s instructions in separate 2017 attacks., Garcia said the two murders were connected to Riser's"off-duty" life, adding that they"will be looking at the activity he conducted as a police officer," including his arrest record.
Garcia didn’t elaborate on why Riser was arrested nearly 20 months after the witness came forward, and police declined to answer subsequent questions about the timing.
markb195 I’m not surprised 😯 at all , are you ?
Well..., did he order the killings of 2 people or not
This is why police departments need independent oversight, they lie and will do anything to protect their own
Wow
Thats bad enogh, but then the going away party at Applebys....
It’s in Texas. What do you expect? Holding people accountable? Nooo! Can’t do that! It’s Texas!
The only reason police unions have been successful in protecting officers is because it is exactly what police chiefs want to provide an excuse from getting rid of the officers that commit crimes
HE AND THE UNIONS GOT TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE
Is this the kind of police that we deserve; hell no!
😳
Was he guilty?
Trump was kept on the job after killing 6 migrant children and 400 thousand Americans.
I guess MSNBC doesn't like our constitution. Innocent until proven guilty only applies where they like it to apply. Liberalism is fascism.
I am recently in your country, looking for new friends
Police reform.
LMAO private hit jobs. He still has a job. I bet he's white.
This is why internal affairs is a bad concept in the modern era. It will get worse the police departments lack the courage to prosecute their own.
Get the why but don’t know that it really justifies it. What if others died in the meantime? What were they going to spin their families Even more amazed that he was never tipped off by someone about being under investigation. How nany more like him out there but protected?
🙄
And how many others like him are they protecting?
