- Law enforcement sources told CBS News senior correspondent John Miller that they are confident that a body in a burned cabin in Big Bear, California is believed to be that of Christopher Dorner, the fired former LAPD officer who is suspected of earlier killing three people, and was also the subject of an intense manhunt.
Not confirmed to be his body at this time, as they have not gotten into the burning house yet. But all signs, so far, point to him having died in this fire/altercation. There is wild speculation all over as of now about how he may have died, but nothing concrete as they have not recovered the remains at this time.
Yeah, even this morning it's still not confirmed yet. It's all kind of confusing, but I don't think they will answer until they are 100% sure. So, might not even hear today. All signs point to it being Dorner, but they aren't saying yet. The PD probably don't want to take any chances. Fixing link in my submission as it's a dead link now.It may take days before authorities can officially determine whether Christopher Jordan Dorner's body was found in the ashes of a torched cabin near Big Bear Lake, California.
You say "they", but you are talking about an LAPD incident. The people in charge of the investigation the article is referring to where Dorner may have died is the San Bernardino Sheriff Dept. But while we are on the subject... What the LAPD did to those women was incompetent. I hope those cops get fired and those women get paid. Being nervous isn't an excuse to gun two people down for no reason.
Before you lecture me, you should be aware that I've been on an LAPD ride-along in Ventura County, the West Torrance neighborhood where the Koreans were shot is one I ride my bike through weekly, and the Big Bear cabin where Dorner went down in flames is a couple miles from my sister's cabin. To somehow imply that the incidents aren't related betrays an ignorance of LA culture. I talked to a San Bernardino cop who defended a shooting in San Mateo 500 miles away. They all bleed blue.
