A detective who worked narcotics with an undercover officer walked up to a car, shot his fellow officer twice, and then seven more times against the victim’s pleas.
The number of signs that Albuquerque Police Lieutenant Greg Brachle ignored or didn’t see before putting nine .45-caliber bullets into his fellow officer’s body are simply staggering.

It sounds like the cop himself was on narcotics.
Whoops, sorry, got caught up in the excitement of the moment............No worries, the paperwork will make it all look just fine................
Did someone have a beef with the victim?
That’s what I thought. At first I didn’t believe it. But there are numerous newspaper articles and TV coverage.

Many times Narcs find out about a connection that leads Internal Affairs to realize that a particular individual is on the take but the officer who finds the information has no knowledge of the connections that make the case for IA.
JMHo
Regarding that picture, how cold does it get in Albuquerque?
Isolated Incident.....
Sounds like it was intentional to me...But then this is that whacko police dept. that likes to kill all the suspects...So who knows...
This happened January 10, 2015,
“One of his own” implies that they were on the same side, though...
Looks like a hit on a cop that wouldn’t play ball with the approved cartel.
It appears the high was 42 on January 9, 2015.

I guess that might explain the ski-masks.
Furthermore, when the person is “trying to crawl away while leaving a heavy trail of blood and while requesting for the shooting to please stop,” Brachle should have let up...
Gee, ya THINK???????????????
Why is this psycho not in jail on a million dollars bond. Or in psych!!!!
The article’s facts make it sound like this cop was INSANE.
City attorney is already saying when the facts are revealed blah blah blah
How does one lose 80 percent of their blood and have almost every vital organ shot and live? It sounds like the scene in the first The Naked Gun movie.
I know i would rather survive than die, but wow, it’s going to be a hard life with surgeries for the rest of his life.
Maybe this will finally get cops to stop being murdering assh0les against those they see as mere citizens.
Alberquerque has serious police department issues....
Was the victim wearing a Scooby Doo costume?
Only the police should have guns.
Don’t be too hard on cops, they might stop doing their jobs.
I wonder if this is the same dept. that had a colonoscopy performed on a prisoner looking for evidence a few months back.
