Police Officer Indicted on First Degree Murder Charge for Killing a Couple’s 2-year-old Son

Free Thought Project – by Claire Bernish

Rock Springs, WY- Jacob Rollen Anglesey has now been indicted by a grand jury for first-degree murder in the 2009 death of a two-year-old child — and new information revealed he’s a cop.

On March 9, 2009, emergency services were summoned to help with the boy, Konnor Allen, whom Anglesey claimed had become unresponsive after suffering a fall.  

child-murdering-copKonnor, who had been in Anglesey’s care, succumbed to the head trauma and died the following day. Konnor was the son of Phylicia Rasdall and Robert Corry Allen.

No charges were filed at the time of the incident.

According to the Rocket-Miner, 

At the time, Green River Police Department (GRPD) placed Anglesey on paid administrative leave and contacted the Sweetwater County Attorney’s Office to request an independent investigation. That investigation was conducted by the Wyoming Division of Criminal Investigation. Former Sweetwater County Attorney Brett Johnson requested a special prosecutor, which was approved by the Sweetwater County Commission on March 12, 2009.

After a review of the DCI investigation, the special prosecutor declined to initiate charges at that time. The case remained open with Wyoming DCI.

Then in 2015, agents with the Wyoming Division of Criminal Investigation presented evidence to the Sweetwater County Attorney’s Office, which reportedly evidenced inconsistencies with Anglesey’s account of events, and included “medical reports stating the injuries were caused by non-accidental trauma,” according to the Associated Press.

K2 Radio News correspondent Tracie Perkins then “discovered information not released in the indictment,” but with serious implications, “namely, that Anglesey is an officer in the Green River Police Department.

Why that information has not been previously released, whether or not the grand jury was privy to it at the time of indictment, and whether or not the Green River Police Department was aware of the investigation — while allowing Anglesey to remain on the job for its duration — remain unclear.

According to the Rock Springs, Wyoming, Rocket-Miner, Anglesey is being held on a $1 million bond. The State of Wyoming retains a death penalty option in cases of murder.

  1. So…. the prosecutor didn’t want to go after the killer cop.

    Seems we have to eliminate prosecutors,…..or cops….
    Both are obviously dangerous to the well being of innocent people.

  2. Fortunately, not all prosecutors are the same. My ex-son-in-law is serving life without parole for killing a 20 month old. He was a cop, also. Sounds like the same circumstances – broke her skull in several places.

    1. wow….you don’t find many baby-killers in the world, and I’m not surprised that the two of them that I’m hearing about today are both cops.

  3. I think this is in the news to convince the public that cops actually do face justice from time to time.

    We’ve been seeing a lot of these stories lately, and it’s no coincidence that they’re all being published as Americans are screaming about police brutality, and lack of accountability. I think they pick a few pigs who are unpopular in the sty, or aren’t “team players”, and throw ’em to the dogs for propaganda purposes.

    This is how they appease and angry population. Now the idiots can go back to their football games, secure in the knowledge that cops do go to jail for their crimes.

    1. THE COMMIE”SMOOTH IT OVER” ARTICLES FALL ON DEAF EARS TO THOSE THAT DESIRE A RETURN OF NATURAL RIGHT, WITH ONLY A REGARD FOR PEACE OFFICERS

  4. “… Jacob Rollen Anglesey has now been indicted by a grand jury for first-degree murder in the 2009 death of a two-year-old child…”

    And it only took them 6 years to throw him under the bus.

    As JR pointed out, they need scapegoats to assuage the ire of the peasants.
