  • Mass Murder and Spree Murder
    Two Mass Murder and Spree Murder Two Types of Multicides A convicted killer recently paroled from prison in Tennessee has been charged with the murder of six people, including his brother, Cecil Dotson, three other adults, and two children. The police have arrested Jessie Dotson, age 33. The killings, which occurred in Memphis, Tennessee, occurred in February 2008. There is no reason known at this time for the murders. (Courier-Journal, March 9, 2008, p. A-3) A young teenager’s boyfriend killed her mother and two brothers, ages 8 and 13. Arraigned on murder charges in Texas were the girl, a juvenile, her 19-year-old boyfriend, Charlie James Wilkinson, and two others on three charges of capital murder. The girl’s father was shot five times but survived. The reason for the murders? The parents did not want their daughter dating Wilkinson. (Wolfson, 2008) Introduction There is a great deal of misunderstanding about the three types of multi- cide: serial murder, mass murder, and spree murder. This chapter will list the traits and characteristics of these three types of killers, as well as the traits and characteristics of the killings themselves. 15 16 SERIAL MURDER Recently, a school shooting occurred in Colorado. Various news outlets erroneously reported the shooting as a spree killing. Last year in Nevada, a man entered a courtroom and killed three people. This, too, was erro- neously reported as a spree killing. Both should have been labeled instead as mass murder. The assigned labels by the media have little to do with motivations and anticipated gains in the original effort to label it some type of multicide.

  • Tactical Emergency Medical Service in Salt Lake City As Provided by the Salt Lake City Fire Department
    Tactical Emergency Medical Service 1 Tactical Emergency Medical Service in Salt Lake City as Provided by the Salt Lake City Fire Department Karl Lieb Salt Lake City Fire Department Salt Lake City, Utah Tactical Emergency Medical Service 2 CERTIFICATION STATEMENT I hereby certify that this paper constitutes my own product, that where the language of others is set forth, quotation marks so indicate, and that appropriate credit is given where I have used the language, ideas, expressions, or writings of another. Signed: Tactical Emergency Medical Service 3 ABSTRACT The integration of Tactical Emergency Medical Services into law enforcement special operations is becoming more common throughout this country. These personnel are often drawn from fire department ranks given their common public safety responsibility, their training in emergency medicine, and their experience in providing emergency care in various environments. Such programs allow emergency medical responders prompt access to patients who may be in need of immediate medical intervention. The Salt Lake City Fire Department currently has no established program to provide tactically trained emergency medical personnel (EMS) to SWAT members, patrol officers, or members of the public in SWAT or active shooting incidents. In the interest of public safety, Salt Lake City Fire Department needs to provide trained tactical medical personnel as an integral element to any Salt Lake City Police Department tactical operation. The purpose of the following research was to identify and provide both Salt Lake City Police and Salt Lake City Fire with a practical means to provide tactical EMS service to police department operations during these types of responses.

  • On February 12, 2007, Salt Lake City Experienced One of the Worst Murder Incidents in the History of the City. Eighteen Year Ol
    On February 12, 2007, Salt Lake City experienced one of the worst murder incidents in the history of the City. Eighteen year old Sulejmen Talovic fatally shot five victims and seriously wounded four others in a shooting spree at the Trolley Square Mall. Sulejmen Talovic was shot and killed by responding police officers. The nature of this crime and the apparent lack of motive or pre-existing connection between the victims and Talovic evoked fear, outrage, grief and anger throughout not only the City of Salt Lake, but throughout our entire nation. Law enforcement officials both locally and nationally obtained a great deal of investigative evidence through extensive interviews with victims, witnesses and family members. Surprisingly law enforcement was able to learn relatively little about Sulejmen Talovic and his motive for committing these atrocities. The information that follows is a compilation of these investigative leads. It is presented to supply information as to the events of that day and the days leading up to it and to describe the scope of the investigation in an attempt to bring about a conclusion and closure for all involved. We ask all readers of this document to respect the privacy of all those involved, especially the victims of this horrible crime, their families and the family of Sulejmen Talovic. During the immediate response to Trolley Square, numerous agencies from throughout Salt Lake County responded and played an active role in searching and securing the massive crime scene. Those agencies included the Sandy City Police Department, West Valley City Police Department, Salt Lake County Sheriff’s Office, Taylorsville Police Department, Utah Highway Patrol and US Marshall’s Office.
