East Oregonian Page 9A Eugene police upset over handling of standoff Say decision to retreat ‘unethical, cowardly and irresponsible’ EUGENE (AP) — Police officers in Eugene have taken steps to file a formal complaint over how the department handled a standoff with a potentially armed man. The Eugene Police Employees’ Association on Wednesday submitted a letter to the city’s police auditor asking for a formal complaint to be filed against the department’s command staff, reported The Register-Guard. The letter criticized the command staff’s decision to retreat during the Tuesday standoff, calling it “unethical, cowardly and irresponsible.” Capt. Sam Kamkar said they decided to call off the standoff with a convicted felon after six hours because the suspect was not posing an active threat. The man was suspected of pointing a gun at his girlfriend and threatening to kill her earlier in the day. The standoff ended abruptly after repeated loudspeaker announce- ments that officers weren’t going anywhere. Kamkar said the depart- ment would continue to investigate the incident and arrest the suspect at a later time. Police shut down a street for four hours Wednesday morning after hearing that the suspect was inside a residence there. They again left without making an arrest. The letter from the employees’ association does not reference Wednesday’s incident. It does, however, ask the Lane County district attor- ney’s office to review the Tuesday incident for any violations of state law. “Our officers are telling us that they feel ashamed to work for command staff that makes these types of decisions and that they are eroding public trust by needlessly endangering the citizens that they are sworn to protect,” the letter reads. Judge: Roof competent to stand trial in church shooting 9 black parishioners killed in 2015 attack By JEFFREY COLLINS Associated Press COLUMBIA, S.C. — The white man charged in the shooting deaths of nine black parishioners at a South Carolina church last year is competent to stand trial, a federal judge ruled Friday. U.S. District Judge Richard Gergel’s deci- sion clears the way for jury selection to restart Monday Roof in the hate- crimes trial of 22-year-old Dylann Roof. The judge had delayed the process of narrowing the final jury pool on Nov. 7 when Roof’s lawyers suggested their client either didn’t understand the charges against him or couldn’t properly help them with his defense. The lawyers did not say what led them to question Roof’s fitness for trial. Roof is charged in federal court with hate crimes, obstruction of religion and other counts in connection with the June 17, 2015 attack at Emanuel African Meth- odist Episcopal Church in Charleston. He could face the death penalty if convicted. The decision came after Gergel wrapped up a hastily called two-day hearing to determine if Roof is mentally fit to stand trial. The judge said he took the rare step of keeping the hearing closed to the public and media because Roof made statements to a psychologist that might not be legal to use at his trial and could taint potential jurors. The judge said Friday that he refrained from releasing a transcript of the hearing for the same reason, reversing an earlier pledge to release a redacted transcript. Family members of the victims have complained about the s e c r e c y surrounding the proceedings, but Gergel maintains that the steps he has taken are to ensure that Roof receives a fair trial and that pre-trial exposure doesn’t provide grounds for an appeal. At Roof’s competency hearing, Gergel heard testi- mony from psychologist James Ballenger and four other unnamed witnesses and reviewed sworn state- ments from three others, the judge wrote in his order. Roof also has already been found competent in state court, where prose- cutors plan a second death penalty trial on nine counts of murder. According to police, Roof sat through nearly an hour of prayer and Bible study at the church with its pastor and 11 others before pulling a gun from his fanny pack near the end of the class and firing dozens of shots. Roof hurled racial insults at the six women and three men he is charged with of killing and the three people left alive, authorities said. He said he left the three unharmed so they could tell the world the shootings were because he hated black people. 11/28-11/29 11/25-11/27 Cineplex Show Times Cineplex Show Times $5 Classic Movie $5 Classic Movie 11/30 12:00 11/30 12:00 THE MUSIC MAN THE MUSIC MAN Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (PG13) 2D 7:00 3D 4:00 10:00 Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (PG13) 2D 1:00* 7:00 3D 4:00 10:00 Allied (R) 4:40 6:40 9:30 Allied (R) 1:50* 4:40 6:40 9:30 Trolls (PG) 4:30 7:20 9:40 Trolls (PG) 11:40* 2:20* 4:30 7:20 9:40 Moana (PG) 2D 4:20 7:10 3D 9:50 Moana (PG) 2D 11:50* 4:20 7:10 3D 1:40* 9:50 Doctor Strange (PG13) 4:10 6:50 9:20 Doctor Strange (PG13) 1:30* 4:10 6:50 9:20 Credit & Debit Cards accepted Cineplex gift cards available * Matinee Pricing Credit & Debit Cards accepted Cineplex gift cards available * Matinee Pricing wildhorseresort.com wildhorseresort.com 541-966-1850 541-966-1850 Pendleton, OR I-84 - Exit 216 Pendleton, OR I-84 - Exit 216
