so it is worth pointing out that 4 at once is really really really statistically unlikely, also the LAPD has gangs, maybe the worst gangs period, and gang retaliation is something those gangs are known to do
Yeah I'm a little hesitant to celebrate this. Were these 4 Dorners that were about to go public and were silenced?
Also possible they saw the wrong thing at the wrong time and got 'suicided' by higher ups so it'd be easier to be corrupt and what not.
LASD is the agency in this case, they are even worse than LAPD. But yes this situation is very sus I agree
Hope one of them set up a dead man's switch before they got suicided
suicide
I like that the article spends so much text talking about the importance of suicide prevention and mental health stuff. But otherwise is just acting like it isn't beyond weird for there to be that many on the same day. If these pigs weren't about to leak something or had stumbled onto something they weren't meant to. Then I still think it could be some kind of attempt to get both some level of sympathy from the public AND more importantly get extra funding. The money would be marked for "mental health" stuff, but would actually be used for other shit of course.
Thoughts and prayers and haha losers.
4 good cops
LA cops wellness checks? How much blood does this guy want?!
In recent years, studies have shown that more officers have died by suicide than the number killed in the line of duty. Officers also have higher risks of suicide than the general population, a disparity that some researchers have attributed to the stresses of police work
read fanon
that said, clearly there is absolutely no evidence whatsoever of any other explanation for their deaths, so i withhold further comment
thots and pears 
I'm from LA, these ppl all died within areas that are highly populated by cops, most of these areas are known for being areas where call the cops live. They even get special discounts for buying homes.
Heroes.

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.
