Eric Frein Described Killing Trooper in Handwritten Letter: Police

Eric Frein Described Killing Trooper in Handwritten Letter: PoliceYahoo News – by RHEANA MURRAY

Accused cop killer Eric Frein described in disturbing detail what it was like when he allegedly shot two state troopers, killing one and injuring another, in a handwritten note found by a police dragnet in the Pennsylvania woods.

Frein, who has been on the run for nearly a month, appears to describe the murder of Cpl. Bryon Dickson in one handwritten letter.

“Got a shot around 11 p.m. and took it. He dropped. I was surprised at how quick,” Lt. Col. George Bivens said at a press conference today, reading from the note police believe Frein wrote. “I took a follow-up shot on his head-neck area. He was still and quiet after that.”  

The letter goes on to describe the shooting of a second officer. Frein is also accused of shooting and injuring Trooper Alex Douglass. Both officers were shot within minutes of each other outside the Blooming Grove police barracks on Sept. 12.

Frein, 31, wrote that he ran back to his Jeep and drove into a road block about half a mile away, Bivens said.

“I didn’t expect one so soon,” Bivens said, again reading from the letter. “It was only 15 to 20 minutes. I did a K-turn a quarter mile from them and pulled into a development I knew had unfinished access road.”

The note describes how he missed a trail and ran his vehicle into a “run-off pool,” describing it as a “disaster.” He made an attempt to stash his “AK” before running, according to the letter.

“I can only describe Eric Frein’s actions as pure evil,” Bivens said after reading the letter. “Every so often, true evil rears its ugly head and we must deal with it.”

There’s no indication that Frein knew the two troopers he allegedly shot, Bivens added.

The FBI, which has added Frein to its 10 Most Wanted Fugitive List, released new images showing what Frein might look like with a short Mohawk and facial hair.

The manhunt has stretched for more than three weeks as police focus on a few square miles near the border of Pike and Monroe counties in eastern Pennsylvania. There have been four new sightings since Friday, Bivens said.

Frein, from nearby Canadensis, has been spotted several times, but always evaded police capture because of the thick terrain. He’s a self-trained survivalist and war reenactor who focused on Eastern European militaries and weapons. He learned to shoot from his father, a retired Army major.

Bivens has said the suspect may consider the chase “a game” and has repeatedly called for him to surrender.

“We’re not going anywhere, we will get Frein,” Bivens said today. “It is a matter of time before we catch him.”

  1. Hahahahahahahaha,….. Oh My God!,… HAhahahahahahahahahahahaha,…….

    I can’t believe how hard they are trying,… to be so stupid!!!!

    Yes,…. of course Eric Frein wrote that!!!,… of course!!!!,… its not enough he “killed”,.. is on the run,….. ducking, hiding,…. finding food,.. water,.. avoiding detection,…. of course he has time to write his memoirs while on the run,.. of course!!!!!! (I’m sure he’s working on the movie script too!)

    Its so silly now,…. even Saturday Night Live would turn down this comedy skit because it requires to much of a leap of imagination to begin to even make it remotely believable!!!!!

    NXT: Eric Frein finds a video cam,….. and makes a video confession!!!!! (…uhhhh,.. yeah,.. yeah,.. thats it!!!!,.. people will believe that!,.. know what I mean, know what I mean,. Wink,.. Wink,.. nod,.. nod!)

    JD – US Marines – Actually,.. it wasn’t Eric Frein that killed,… it was the bullet from the JFK assassination (you know,.. the one that went through Kennedy,.. made a left,… then a right turn,.. went thru Connely,…. and then ended up on Kennedy’s gurney at the hospital, in perfect condition..) still flying around the world,.. killing people and causing havoc.

    1. I might be wrong, but, that home made device looks like a pill bottle that has been painted o.d green. As small as it is you would have to swallow it to receive much damage. The fuse makes me think it was made by ACME and given to the Coyote for a scene in the cartoon. I’m no device expert,but that thing is a joke at best for someone in this guys position(if he is in fact real).

  2. That photo of them walking around in the forest looks like a scene straight out of the video game, “Call of Duty” or something. It must be fun getting paid to walk around in the forest, doing drills. They don’t even look like the police. They look like a band of mercenaries.

  3. “The note describes how he missed a trail and ran his vehicle into a “run-off pool,” describing it as a “disaster.” He made an attempt to stash his “AK” before running, according to the letter.”

    ROLMFAO!!!

    Why in the HELL would they think that anyone would believe that someone would ever write this stuff?

    Yes, I’m so bored being chased by the police in the woods, that I’m going to stop for awhile and write about how I missed a trail, ran my vehicle into a “run-off pool” and made an attempt to stash my “AK” before running. 🙄

    Do they really think we are that stupid?

    1. Did they find his passport not too far from the note? How did this note end up in the authorities lap, oh, that’s right, were just watching the latest soap opera. “All the world’s indeed a stage and we are merely players, performers and portrayers, each another’s audience, beyond the guilded cage.” ( Limelight- Rush)

  4. It sounds like the police are getting ready to move on the shooter.

    You are being told this was a totally random shooting. The shooter never mentions prior contact with those he shot.

    His actions are being described as ” pure evil” which will make it all ok when they kill him to bring this to a close.

    Evil lone gun nut brought to justice by the forces of good.
    They are going to tie a pretty bow on this and call it over.

    If he ever existed at all.

    1. I thought this letter WAS his manifesto?

      “The note describes how he missed a trail and ran his vehicle into a “run-off pool,” describing it as a “disaster.” He made an attempt to stash his “AK” before running, according to the letter.”

      Isn’t that enough? lol

      1. That would possibly fall under the “confined space/trench rescue” portion of the training exercise program. Hotel was confined space portion.

          1. Read up on IRA Green Book if you haven’t yet NC. Been to Ireland many times. Inspiration and hope to be gleaned from those who have been in a similar predicament.

  5. What I don’t understand is why those nuts are so evenly spaced. It looks like it was made for show as being hexagonal they fit together and you could have at least 4 times as much shrapnel.
    If I am incorrect in this observation can someone please explain why?

    1. I appreciate your comment. I noticed the same thing.
      Although I have no experience at all, just thinking about it made me wonder…why no sharp edged wood screws or short roofing nails (you know, irregular shaped stuff) to give a wider pattern?
      The photo shows an aesthetically perfect “looking” object.
      And, what’s with the short fuse on one end and the supposed “trip wire” attachment?
      Is this a “Mouse Trap” type setup where the wire is tripped, causing a weight to fall on a fireplace lighter switch (without the bulls**t double button push child safety crap) that lights the fuse so the device can go off after the “target” has passed out of range?
      Pitiful…absolutely pitiful.
      Anyone? Please feel free to enlighten me if I am in error. As I said, I have no experience at all. I’m just making an informed observation.

  6. “I can only describe Eric Frein’s actions as pure evil,” Bivens said after reading the letter. “Every so often, true evil rears its ugly head and we must deal with it.”

    Lets see, when a cop murders someone it is justified and righteous, but when a cop is murdered it is pure evil. Who makes up these rules?

  7. It IS painful to watch isn’t it?! I can’t believe this is happening sometimes. Jeez! Makes me angry NC. :/

  8. “I made a K turn”

    who talks like that?

    try..” I turned around”

    complete hog wash, this guy isnt as they say..and even doubt he did any of this.

  9. “The FBI, which has added Frein to its 10 Most Wanted Fugitive List, released new images showing what Frein might look like with a short Mohawk and facial hair.”

    A Mohawk now? Stop the world, I want to get off! I want to meet these writers. Seriously.
