Many parents are telling me they are concerned about their children being pulled over by an Albuquerque Police officer, not a good situation for the citizens of Albuquerque nor the Police Department. Much damage has been done to the honorable profession of Law Enforcement by these APD killings. City Officials, the Mayor, Chief of Police, Police Union, City Councilors must answer to the citizens of Albuquerque. Enough is enough! APD is at a tipping point…..which way will it go? I grieve for the city I live in, for the first time in my life I am asking myself as I see an APD patrol car, is that Officer stable? Pastor Dewey Moede

UPDATE NUMBER 3 SUNDAY MORNING: Tweeted by an Albuquerque resident this morning: When bears wander into the foothills we tranquilize and relocate them.

UPDATE SUNDAY MORNING: I am thankful to see many Albuquerque citizens outraged with the actions of APD. Yesterday in my rounds I found citizens in disbelief of this killing by APD. Many say for goodness sakes the man belonged in jail or in mental health care unit, not shot dead! I am thankful for Albuquerque City Councilor Isaac Benton calling out Police Chief Eden! Eden has just simply said the shooting was justified. Nonsense! The city of Albuquerque is at a tipping point with it’s Police Department, which way will it go?
UPDATE SATURDAY MORNING: I watched the video and it disturbed me very much to see the killing of this individual. The killing of the mentally disturbed by APD must stop! When will we hear from the Justice Dept. on the outcome of their investigation of APD? I could not sleep last night after watching the video it has disturbed my discernment so much! I am sicken by the dysfunction of the Albuquerque Police Dept. Everything from the shootings of citizens, to the Levi Chavez mess, suicide, adultery within the Department and the officer who struck and killed the young lady with his police vehicle. The Lord has shown me there is a darkness within the Department, a cancer, that needs to be removed. I am man who has respected Law Enforcement all my life. I have dedicated over my years in media tons of airtime to pay tribute to Officers. But this mess in Albuquerque is making it hell for all the good officers!
From Friday night:
I agree with former Albuquerque Mayor Jim Baca that the latest killing by the Albuquerque Police Dept. is a disgrace. APD is out of control and the Mayor and City Council need to also be held accountable for an out of control, trigger happy Dept. One of our loved ones could be next! You cannot just get a new Chief and expect things to change, the culture of APD is messed up big time! I did not watch the video that is being circulated, I could not watch this awful senseless killing by APD. Here is what Jim Baca has to say: Disgraceful: The shooting of that camper by APD officers in the foothills of Albuquerque is disgraceful. More here: …bit.ly/1dytPMB
