| Re: Cop Gunned Down by AK-47 | Death Pictures and Death Video Sorry if this had already been posted. Deputy Kyle Dinkheller, Laurens County, GA, was minutes from being off duty when he encountered a speeding pickup truck going 98 mph. The deputy was an ICE (Interstate Criminal Enforcement) officer that dealt with traffic infractions, speeding and the occasional drug bust. This was a low risk or unknown risk stop for speeding. He radioed in the speeding infraction, made a U-turn in the median and pursued the vehicle. The driver, Andrew Brannan, stopped his vehicle, exited and started a crazy, dancing jig in the middle of the road while swearing at the officer and shouting ‘I’m a god-damned Vietnam vet.” At first, he ignored Dinkheller’s commands to step towards the deputy, which always began with `Sir’. When he finally complied, he attacked the deputy and a scuffle ensued. The deputy implemented the use of his asp and ordered Brannan to `get back’. This procedure was repeated, but after what appeared to be a second scuffle, the suspect returned to his vehicle and retrieved a M-I Carbine from under the seat. The first shots were fired nearly 50 seconds after Brannan returned to his vehicle despite the deputy’s commands. Brannan ignored the repeated commands to put the gun down and Deputy Dinkheller apparently fired the first shot. Brannan, a Vietnam veteran, advanced firing on the deputy. Dinkheller returned fire, but succeeded only in breaking a window in the driver’s side of the pickup and wounding Brannan in the stomach. Using `suppressive fire’, Brannan systematically, methodically shot Dinkheller in the arms, legs, exposed areas that would not be covered had Dinkheller been wearing a bulletproof vest, slowly executing him. Reloading his weapon Brannan continued firing with the final death shot to Dinkheller’s right eye. |

| Re: Cop Gunned Down by AK-47 | Death Pictures and Death Video Man accused in deputy's death is arrested, hospitalized Associated Press DUBLIN - A Vietnam veteran accused of killing a Laurens County deputy was shouting and acting irrationally moments before gunning down the officer, Sheriff Kenny Webb said Tuesday after viewing a videotape of the traffic stop that led to the shooting. Andrew Howard Brannan, 49, of McDonough was arrested Tuesday morning after police found him hiding in a sleeping bag beneath a camouflage tarp, about 100 yards from the Laurens County house where police had tracked him after the Monday shooting. Brannan, who had no previous criminal record, was charged with murder in the death of Deputy Kyle Dinkheller. He was taken to a hospital for treatment of a gunshot wound in the stomach, apparently inflicted by Dinkheller. Dinkheller, 22, was shot with a rifle about 5:30 p.m. Monday after he stopped a man who was speeding in a white truck. Brannan's "behavior was real bizarre," Webb said. "He charged the deputy and was yelling, 'Shoot me. Shoot me.' "I don't understand what set him off, why he was acting the way he did. I just don't know. I wish I did." Brannan was clocked at speeds of up to 98 miles an hour on Interstate 16 before finally being stopped on a rural road about six miles northwest of Dublin near the Dudley community, Webb said. He said he couldn't tell from the videotape if Brannan knocked down Dinkheller during his initial charge at the officer, but the next thing he saw was Brannan going back to his vehicle. "He got an M-1 carbine (rifle) and Dinkheller was pleading with him to drop the gun when, out of the blue, he (Brannan) started firing," the sheriff said. "They both fired several rounds. I think Dinkheller was hit three times. The fatal wound was in the head. Brannan was wounded in the gut. I don't think he's going die." Brannan was listed in guarded condition Tuesday at a Dublin hospital. After Dinkheller was killed, authorities tracked Brannan to a house near Dudley, where the white truck and a rifle were found, said John Bankhead, a spokesman for the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. They sprayed the house with tear gas during the night, but no one was found inside. At daybreak, they began to search the area around the house and found Brannan in his makeshift hide-out, Bankhead said. Dinkheller had been with the sheriff's department nearly three years. He was married and had a child about 18 months old. Services are tentatively scheduled for Friday at 11 a.m. at Jefferson Street Baptist Church in Dublin, with burial to follow at Dublin Memorial Gardens. A fund to help the slain deputy's family has been set up at the Bank of Dudley. |

| Re: Cop Gunned Down by AK-47 | Death Pictures and Death Video Very long and detailed dissection of the case on a 2008 appeal. Emphasis is placed on the killer in psychological detail as well as more details added that the camera didnt make visable. http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/data2/...8/s08a1211.pdf |
