Officers oppose parole for LAPD cop killer
About a year into my career, and a month into my second newspaper job at the Ontario Daily Report, I covered the aftermath of the slaying of LAPD Officer Daniel Pratt in 1988. Pratt lived in Montclair and was a local resident in that newspaper's circulation area. I interviewed his family.
Hard to believe it's been 22 years already. Just now, I received an e-mail from the Los Angeles Police Protective League opposing parole for one of the people convicted of killing him.
Here's the letter the LAPPL sent to the Parole Board:

Let her rot in jail. I grew up with Danny in Ohio and he did not deserve to be murdered by this useless animal.
