Chris Cooper's killer gets 15 years, family wants reform

A PursuitWatch reader pointed out the development in the Chris Cooper story. 17 year old Chris was riding his bike while he was struck and killed by Wilfredo Pujols who was being pursuit by the Independence Police Department.

PhillipsWatch blogged about this in November of 07 when it occurred.

For more on the sentence, as well as Chris' family's goal to change the Independence Missouri's pursuit policy, click HERE.

When PursuitWatch first discussed the death of Chris, his mother Cheryl left a comment. She wrote:

Christopher Cooper is my beloved son. He was hit and killed on November 8, 2007, during a high speed police pursuit. His loss has left us devastated and struggling to find a way to justify his death. In Independence, the support from the public is for the police department, and we will have an uphill battle trying to convince them that their policy is deeply flawed. God bless you, John, for carrying on your father's work. I look at your site each day for ways in which I can bring about change in the way pursuits are conducted. Thank you for your time.
Cheryl Cooper

INDEPENDENCE, Mo. -- Another police chase in Independence has ended in another death.

It was the second time in two days and the third time in a week that someone died as a result of an Independence police chase.

Guess to them, it doesn't count if you kill the, 'alleged' bad guy.

God help you put your efforts, energy, blood and tears into stopping bad guys and helping people rear law-abiding childrens instead of criminalizing police work like this site does. Can we do it, yes we can!

Perhaps you are okay with a cop calling a dying child "a roach that just won't die". The parents of Christopher Cooper, however, are NOT all right with that, and will hold these monsters posing as law enforcement accountable as well as the criminal.

What a great web log. I spend hours on the net reading blogs, about tons of various subjects. I have to first of all give praise to whoever created your theme and second of all to you for writing what i can only describe as an fabulous article. I honestly believe there is a skill to writing articles that only very few posses and honestly you got it. The combining of demonstrative and upper-class content is by all odds super rare with the astronomic amount of blogs on the cyberspace.
