"Slain officer’s fiancee recalls drunken taunting by victim; Incident preceded shooting near high school baseball field" by John R. Ellement and Andrew Ryan, Globe Staff | January 9, 2010
The fiancee of a slain off-duty Revere police officer described for the first time yesterday in court the drunken taunting that preceded the fatal shooting near a high school baseball field.
Daniel Talbot and three other off-duty but armed police officers had been drinking in a restaurant bar until 1 a.m. on Sept. 29, 2007, but they wanted more and lugged beers to the bleachers behind Talbot’s alma mater, Revere High School, accompanied by his fiancee, Constance Bethell.
WTF? What are they 16-years old?
“I didn’t understand why we had to go to the field,’’ Bethell testified yesterday in Suffolk Superior Court. “We had a house. We were adults, but I was overruled.’’
Bethell told the jury that her 30-year-old fiance was “not sober’’ that morning and initiated the dispute by loudly mocking and taunting Derek Lodie, an alleged gang member who was then 17, as he walked by. The incident led to a confrontation between Talbot and Lodie, and the officer was shot soon afterward. Robert Iacoviello Jr., an alleged fellow gang member, is accused of the shooting. Bethell also described holding Talbot’s hand while he gasped for breath as he lay dying from a gunshot wound to the head....
I'm sorry, but the a**hole sort of got what he deserved, didn't he?
BULLIES never seem to LEARN!!!!!!
