The DAs statement on the Harris murder suicide
Steve Cooley's office put their statement on the Harris case up on the web this afternoon. It's the same statement handed out to reporters Tuesday. Here's the text:
LOS ANGELES – District Attorney Steve Cooley issued the following statement today on the murder of Monica Thomas Harris, victim in a family violence case:
“The tragic murder of Monica Thomas Harris is a matter of great concern to those of us in the District Attorney’s Office.
“Yesterday I ordered an internal analysis of the circumstances leading up to the release of her estranged husband and murderer. That investigation will continue and will determine whether there were any violations of office policy and/or failure to follow procedures established for these types of cases.
“The overall assessment will be conducted jointly by Head Deputy Victoria Adams of the Family Violence Division and the Director Pamela Booth who has oversight over the Pomona Branch Office. They will report their findings directly to me.”
Comments
I guess Cooley buckled after the LATIMES story the other day when they pointed out all the evidence the DA, DEFENSE ATTY & JUDGE did not see even though that tough PROBATION officer had told them he was still very dangerous to everone. Ha, Hope the family gets more millions out of the county and COOLEY gets thrown out for malpractice.
