Police: Cop killers heavily armed, wore diapers

Police Shot-Las VegasThe News Tribune – by Ken Ritter

 — A man and woman who killed two Las Vegas police officers in a pizza shop and a shopper in a Wal-Mart before they died in a store shootout earlier this month were heavily armed and carried ammunition including armor-piercing bullets, Clark County Sheriff Doug Gillespie said Monday.

Jerad and Amanda Miller wore adult diapers and carried four handguns, a shotgun, water and food, Gillespie said. The couple also smashed a Wal-Mart sporting-goods display case with a baseball bat to get more ammunition as they exchanged gunfire with SWAT officers, he said.   

The husband and wife died June 8 after being cornered in the back of the store in the 15-minute shootout. In all, 52 shots were fired by the Millers and police inside the store. The husband and wife fired 36 shots, Gillespie said, and police fired 16.

“The two suspects involved in this horrible event were well-armed and ready to kill as many cops as they could,” Gillespie said in the latest update of the investigation of the shooting that left officers Igor Soldo and Alyn Beck and Wal-Mart shopper Joseph Wilcox dead.

Wilcox was killed trying to draw his legal handgun to stop the Millers, who entered the store after shooting the officers eating lunch in the nearby restaurant.

The suspects “were prepared on that day to hunker down and stay in that Wal-Mart as long as they needed to,” the sheriff said.

Gillespie wouldn’t disclose more about a motive for the Millers’ rampage and declined to say what was contained in a note left with a swastika symbol and a “Don’t Tread on Me” flag in the pizza shop where the officers were ambushed.

He didn’t say how many shots were fired in the CiCi’s Pizza. That information was not immediately being made public, Sgt. John Sheahan said.

Gillespie said police still believe the Millers acted alone.

Police said previously the Millers shared an ideology with militia and white supremacists that law enforcement officers were oppressors. The couple was kicked out of an encampment of supporters of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, who engaged in an armed standoff in April with federal Bureau of Land Management agents trying to round up Bundy cattle in a public land trespassing dispute.

The Millers each had a handgun when they killed Soldo and Beck, and each took one of the officers’ 9mm handguns and two spare clips of ammunition. The guns they brought with them were obtained by Amanda Miller in Indiana, where the couple lived before moving to Las Vegas in January.

Jerad Miller, 31, could not legally own weapons as a felon. He was convicted of vehicle theft in Washington state and had a criminal record in Indiana.

During the shootout in the Wal-Mart, a split-second exchange of gunfire changed the outcome of the fast-developing situation, Gillespie said.

Officer Brett Brosnahan came face to face with a surprised Amanda Miller rounding the corner of an aisle, and he wounded the 22-year-old assailant in the upper right shoulder.

Brosnahan wasn’t hurt. He retreated before Jerad Miller, who had pulled a pistol-grip .12-gauge shotgun from his gym bag and donned a cloth vest and belt of shotgun shells, was mortally wounded in the chest by another police officer firing a military-style .223-caliber rifle.

Gillespie quoted Jerad Miller as declaring the start of a revolution and firing one shot into the ceiling after entering the Wal-Mart. He said the assailant shouted, “Stand down. You have failed. I am in charge now,” as Sgt. Kurt McKenzie tried to get him to surrender near the back of the store.

Jerad Miller died lying prone on the floor. His wife lay nearby on her back, pointing a handgun at him before putting it to her own head and pulling the trigger. She was pronounced dead later at a hospital.

  1. BAHAHAHAAHAHA!!! ROLFMAO!!!! Seriously, do the MSM reporters just sit at their desks trying to think of the most ridiculous nonsense to put in their false flag stories or is it just me?

    Reminds me of Don Adams in the movie, “Back to the Beach”:

    “Would you believe….a broken oar?”

  2. This is the part that is super hard to believe.

    The husband and wife died June 8 after being cornered in the back of the store in the 15-minute shootout. In all, 52 shots were fired by the Millers and police inside the store. The husband and wife fired 36 shots, Gillespie said, and police fired 16.

    So the police fired 16 shots in a 15 minute fire fight??? Really? And they won the fire fight with 16 rounds fired in 15 minutes? Really ??

    Super Cops. WoW.

  3. Jerad Miller, 31, could not legally own weapons as a felon. He was convicted of vehicle theft in Washington state and had a criminal record in Indiana.

    So gun registration will work? I think not. Keeping guns out of the hand of the crazy, insane or criminals will work? What land do these representatives in congress live in?

    As I said it’s a mad mad world.

  4. “Wilcox was killed trying to draw his legal handgun to stop the Millers,”
    They still have not said WHO shot and killed Wilcox.
    I am offering odds of 10:1 that he was shot by police.

  5. There is nothing believeable about this staged double murder of two policemen having lunch. Gillespie and crew are having a tantrum since they couldn’t get away with the event at Bunkerville.

  6. Reminds me of the CIA intelligence report that said Bin Laden was able to conceal his identity in Afghanistan by shaving his beard and wearing a cowboy hat like a Texan. Oh yeah, Osama Buckaroo Bin Laden the cowboy? These presstitutes are insane if they think absolutely everybody believes this crap!
