What is the "Blue Wall of Silence"?

The unspoken code amongst law enforcement officials that prevents disclosure of abuse. Tactics used to enforce the Blue Wall of Silence are threats, intimidation, mocking, humiliation and outright termination of careers.

How did the Blue Wall of Silence lead to Chris Dorner's current mental state of rage?

By doing the correct thing and reporting the abuse of LAPD Officer Teresa "Chupacabra" Evans former LAPD Officer Christorpher Dorner placed his career at risk. He then experienced a head long collision with the Blue Wall of Silence, was labeled a liar and then fired. He learned through these events that behaving with ethics and compassion by speaking out against the abuse of a mentally ill man by his fellow officer Teresa Evans would lead to his own termination from the force. When humans act in an ethical manner and are then punished by those in authority for acting correctly this could inspire rage and lead to unclear thinking.

Who was Kelly Thomas and how does this relate to Dorner?

Kelly Thomas was a homeless man with schizophrenia who was beaten to death by four police officers in Fullerton, Orange County, CA. It is clear to people with experience in the mental health system that four grown men could effectively restrain a mentally unstable individual without causing them any physical harm. If needed Kelly Thomas could have been restrained and taken in for a psychiatric interview at a regional hospital. If this correct procedure were followed Kelly Thomas would remain living today. If Chris Dorner were present during the beating of Kelly Thomas, would he not have tried to prevent this tragedy fro occuring. The problem in OC was that the four officers who beat Kelly Thomas to death were lacking a "Jiminy Cricket" angel on their shoulder voice of reason like Chris Dorner to stop their brutal aggression towards Kelly Thomas. Maybe once there was someone like Dorner on the Fullerton police force who also collided with the Blue Wall of Silence and was terminated.

background on Kelly Thomas;

"Being involved in the alternative media, I have watched and discussed endless videos involving police brutality. There have been many cases where people have lost their lives due to the beating they sustained from a “peace officer,” with some cases being blatant, cold blooded murder as in the case of Kelly Thomas.

Yet, despite my desensitization, I did not react the way I’d been conditioned to when seeing Mr. Thomas beaten to a pulp.

This really puzzled me for a few days and then it became clear that I should be asking, where has all the compassion gone? This is a question that a lot of people have been asking with increasing frequency.

In a time of economic uncertainty, endless wars, social fragmentation, dummy drugs (Ritalin, Zoloft etc.) and so on, compassion is needed in great abundance.

Yet we are like a snake eating its tail and getting really close to the head. In the case of Kelly Thomas, can you imagine the amount of hatred and disdain that Officer Manuel Ramos and Cpl. Jay Patrick Cicinelli had for Mr. Thomas to just unleash on him in a way that resulted in his death a mere 5 days later?

I must be fair though; there were four other officers involved.

If Mr. Thomas was guilty of anything it was having mail he shouldn’t have had. What would possess Officer Ramos to clench his fist and say, “You see my fists? They’re getting ready to f— you up”?

Mr. Thomas replied to this threat by saying, “Start punching dude.” I think I may have said the same thing or at least some variation of it.

There seems to be an obvious anger issue with Ramos. As Mr. Thomas starts to walk away after being threatened he is first hit by Cpl. Cicinelli.

Why? I can only assume that he was tired of being threatened and treated like a child. Put your hands here! Put your feet straight out! Did his non-compliance with those orders really warrant the actions that followed?

I would like to believe that everyone reading this would unanimously agree that there is no way Mr. Thomas deserved what he received at the hands of these “peace officers.”

Why so confrontational, Ramos and Cicinelli? It’s very clear that Mr. Thomas was not in any way a threat to the two savages.

The surveillance camera footage and accompanying audio clearly shows this.

I know that a lot of stories get put out there that show brutality but just from one side. This makes it difficult at times to really know if the officers were provoked or not.

This is not even close to being case with Mr. Thomas. As hard as it is to view, I encourage everyone to watch this video.

The reason being is that it must be crystal clear in your mind that this is, in fact, happening all over the world, everyday. Yes, everyday.

The media, even local media, will not cover or report every case of police brutality. There’s a good reason for this.

The police are, as I have been told by a sheriff, a “brotherhood.” They do not rat out their own.

Editor’s note: this is also known as “the Blue Wall” or “the Blue Wall of Silence” referring to the typical color of police uniforms and the colloquial term for police, “the boys in blue.”

We know this to be fact due to cases like the Bogota, New Jersey police officer Regina Tasca who in fact was trying to stop the beating of an emotionally disturbed man and now could lose her job over it.

Lose your job for trying to stop the unnecessary beating of another person? That is crazy in any job, but to have that job be a “peace officer?” Of course this is just one example amongst a long list of similar cases."

Are good cops punished for reporting abuse?

Yes. That is why rookies are given hazing type initiations so they understand the rules of being a silent witness to abuses by bad cops and those with higher ranking have already played along with the code of silence for years. Good cops don't last long on most big city police forces.

Are LAPD officers the worst for corruption and unreported abuses?

Not exactly. The runners up for worst abuses and corruption are New Orleans PD, NYPD and most recently Albuquerque, New Mexico PD who are under investigation by DOJ for repeated abuse cases.


Now the people are told that we cannot defend ourselves and must rely upon the police for our protections. Yet when the police themselves are the violent ones and those who try to speak out against this are fired then driven into insane rage, what remains?



The real danger out there isn't Chris Dorner, it is officers like Teresa "Chupacabra" Evans who remains on the LAPD force with a badge and a gun, free and able to attack and torment other mentally ill people at her whim.


"She is Dangerous"

"It took me ages to complete
the other lines underneath
Now they are here after all
Like the sun rise and falls
Time means nothing to me now
She d cast a spell and now I am bound
She s the force I always feared
Now I m lost for years
She s dangerous,she s dangerous
I m crouching down on my knees
Cos she s so hard to please
And I am all messed up now
It simply has to stop somehow
I d let her soak up my soul
Now I feel she is in control
There s no one to believe
I don t want her here
She s dangerous,she s dangerous
Now you know the truth
She knows it too
She s dangerous,she s dangerous

Police brutality and punishment of ethical officers who intervene to protect individuals being beaten isn't limited to big cities either.

In Bogata, NJ female officer Regina Tasca tried to protect 22 year old emotionally disturbed Kyle from a beat down by two male officers from nearby Ridgefield Park and was then fired for trying to help. The two officers from RP were never investigated;

Greetings citizens of the free world. We are Toxic Cops. We exploit those police officers who tarnish the shield and violate our civil rights. The need to film willful police misconduct is propelled by officers whom are abusive and blacken the eye of good law enforcement.

Now, as a case in point, let’s look at an incident that happened April 29, 2011. A respected Bogota police officer Regina Tasca is punished for taking defensive action against fellow officer, Sergeant Joe Rella and Sergeant Chris Thibault.

April 29, 2011, as the officer in charge of the situation, officer Tasca seen here in photo followed the Bogota Police Department’s use of force policy to the letter by intervening to protect the victim from a criminal assault committed by an officer Sergeant Joe Rella from another department.

Well too often we show you cop beat downs caught on tape, but this one is different, it’s another cop who intervened and now she is about to get fired for it. Kirstin Cole has more on this story. Kirstin?

[Kirstin Cole]

Yeah, Jody, this one just does not make sense. An officer brave enough to stop two other officers who are beating an emotionally disturbed young man ended up getting suspended for it and she is facing firing tomorrow. She says it’s worse than just not being a part of the boys club, it’s really because she crossed the line, the blue line.

It’s hard to listen to a mother, Tera screaming for police to stop punching her son on their front lawn. She had called to have her emotionally disturbed son Kyle taken to the hospital, Bogota police responded while waiting for the ambulance. Officer Regina Tasca got the call. But it’s the two backup officers from Ridgefield Park who deliver the beating.

[Regina Tasca] Source: LYBIO.net

The Ridgefield Park officer automatically charges and takes him down to the ground. Another police officer from Ridgefield Park comes in his car, flies to the scene just starts punching him in the head.

Kyle never threatened, wasn’t violent, didn’t have a weapon, eventually officer Tasca was able to pry the punching of Ridgefield Park officer off Kyle as seen in this picture taken by his mom, who later commented Tasca.

[Tera (Mother)]
I appreciate you protecting him when the officers attacked him. I can’t figure out, what I would have done without you at the scene.

[Catherine Elston (Attorney)]
This was excessive force used against an emotionally disturbed person. This was an unlawful tackle, this was a punching.

What happens next is baffling.

[Regina Tasca] Source: LYBIO.net
He asked me to turn over my weapon.

Bogota PD suspended Tasca for stopping the officer’s excessive violence. They never questioned those Ridgefield Park officers about the tackle, the punches. Kyle was taken to the hospital. His bruises documented, but no charges were ever filed.

[Kirstin Cole]
Officer Tasca says the real reason why she is being called out on these charges because crossed the blue line. She refused to support another officer even when his actions turned violent. The other problem, the Bogota Police Department is very small, fewer than 20 officers and here she is a definitive minority.

[Regina Tasca]
They’ve never had a female officer before. I am the first and only. First and only gay officer, also.

Despite Tasca’s numerous commendations and awards, her 11 years on the job. It can all end this week, if a judge decides she should indeed be fired.

[Catherine Elston (Attorney)]
It’s not just terminating her, they are destroying her reputation.

[Kirstin Cole]
I called the Bogota Police Department numerous times for comment, they never returned the call, and Ridgefield Park police confirmed the two officers caught on tape delivering the tackle and the beating were never investigated or disciplined, Jody.

[Jody] Source: LYBIO.net
All right.

Do not be intimidated and keep the cameras rolling because remember according the courts it’s your right to film police officers while performing their public duty. Thanks for watching. God bless you, your family and God bless America.

As someone who once worked in a state psychiatric hospital we recieved training on how to take down an aggressive individual. This training NEVER included punches to the head!!

Proper restraint techniques aren't that difficult and you don't need to be a rocket scientist to employ a baskethold, it is clear that punches to the head are abuse and nothing less. With three officers present it would have been simple to put Kyle in a baskethold (one officer) and another two officers holding the legs. There isn't any call for punches to the head!!

Not that i'm saying Kyle was even acting out to the point that these restraint holds were needed, i'm saying IF an individual reacts violently psych techs are trained to take down a person WITHOUT causing any injury. So if we can learn how to employ non-violent restraint tactics like basketholds in one month how is it that an officer in police academy cannot learn how to restrain without punching someone in the head??

Simple. The two male officers from Ridgefield Park weren't interested in "do no harm", the officer who punched Kyle in the head WANTED TO HURT HIM!!

background on Regina Tasca;

"The United States’ descent into a hellish police state continues and appears to only get worse as the years go by. The case of Officer Regina Tasca of the Bogota Police Department in New Jersey is a troubling example of just how far gone some law enforcement agencies are today.

In this case, Officer Tasca is being declared “psychologically incompetent” for stepping in to save an emotionally disturbed young man from a brutal beating at the hands of police.

Here at End the Lie I have covered just a few of the troubling things police are able to get away with, such as murdering elderly tourists with pepper spray while they are restrained and brutally beating senior citizens suffering from dementia.

I have also pointed out how when the good police officers out there actually do their job and stand up for justice, they are targeted for harassment or in some cases even thrown in a psychiatric ward.

The things that police officers end up actually getting in trouble for tend to be outright absurd, like mowing the lawn in shorts, yet no one is held responsible for the most egregious violations like those listed above.

Officer Regina Tasca’s ordeal started back in April of last year when she turned on her dashboard camera before attempting to stop two officers from brutally beating a 22-year-old emotionally disturbed man.

It was just a matter of days after Tasca stepped in to defend the helpless man that she was informed she was being suspended without pay. One year later and she is still suspended and awaiting her internal trial. According to WPIX, the Bogota Police Department is looking to see her fired.

The incident occurred when a mother, Tara, called to have her emotionally disturbed son, Kyle, taken to the hospital.

While waiting for the ambulance to arrive, Bogota police responded. Officer Tasca was the only officer on the road – the Bogota PD has a mere 20 officers in total – so she followed protocol and called for backup.

Two officers from the Ridgefield Park police showed up, and that’s when everything went horribly wrong.

Keep in mind, Tasca had just finished being trained to work with emotionally disturbed individuals as part of a state-mandated training program.

“The Ridgefield Park officer automatically charges and takes him [Kyle] down to the ground. I was quite shocked. As he’s doing that, another Ridgefield Park officer flies to the scene in his car, jumps out and starts punching him in the head,” Officer Tasca described.

When viewing the disturbing video (which can be seen here), we hear Kyle and his mother Tara screaming, “Stop punching me!” and “Why are you punching him?”

Astoundingly, the two Ridgefield Park Sergeants responsible have never refuted the claims that they repeatedly assaulted the 22-year-old man as he was waiting for medical assistance.

Even more insane is that Kyle was never arrested or charged for any offense whatsoever.

Officer Tasca says that is because Kyle never threatened the officers, did not possess a weapon and most importantly, was not violent and did not resist.

Tasca was eventually able to pull off one of the Ridgefield Park officers who was striking Kyle and his mother actually called Tasca personally to thank her.

“Thank you Regina. I appreciate you standing up for him, for protecting him while the officer attacked him. I can’t figure out what i would have done without you at the scene,” Tara said in the message.

Officer Regina Tasca says she is “the only female–the first female ever–and the first and only gay female also,” in the Bogota Police Department. When asked if she thinks this blatantly unfair has anything to do with her sexual orientation and gender, she said, “Yes,” unhesitatingly.

Tasca also said that she is being punished for actually doing her job is because she crossed the so-called “blue line” by refusing to support another officer who was guilty of using excessive force. It definitely doesn’t help that she is one of just 20 other officers.

Tasca is going to be assisted by Catherine Elston, an attorney and former police officer herself, during the week-long department trial.

“This was excessive force used against an emotionally disturbed person,” Elston said. “This was an unlawful tackle, this was a punching an emotionally disturbed person whose arms were pinned under his chest with his face pushed into the ground.”

After the incident, she met with her superior officer and, “The next thing I know he asks me to turn over my weapon and be sent for a fitness for duty exam,” she recalled.

Once Tasca recounted he events, the Bogota PD apparently believed that she was psychologically incompetent and thus unable to be a police officer.

She was sent for testing but the Ridgefield Park officers were never so much as questioned.

No investigators from the department’s internal affairs even interviewed the officers and they are currently still on the streets and continue to be paid.

This is all while there is photographic evidence from the hospital showing the bruises the 22-year-old sustained on his head, back, arms and wrists from the assault.

While letting the officers responsible for the beating off the hook completely, Bogota PD opted to suspend Tasca, an 11-year veteran with multiple commendations.

Tasca’s trial, which will be held before a retired judge who will be the only person making the final decision, began on April 17.

“If another officer is using excessive force, it’s my duty to make sure you stop it. And that’s what I did,” Tasca said.

“They’re not just terminating her. They’re destroying her reputation,” Elston said.

It is great to see that there are indeed still police officers out there who join the force for the right reasons and continue to actually do their job, which is to protect and serve the people, not ruthlessly beat them for no reason.

Hopefully Tasca will have her name cleared, have all back pay paid and both of the officers responsible will be stripped of their positions and ideally charged with assault.

The fact that the Bogota PD thought that this decision was in any way rational or legitimate is, in my opinion, deeply troubling and a disturbing sign of the times in which we live today.

UPDATE: A reader informed me that Tasca was suspended with, not without, pay as I said above. Indeed, the WPIX story now says that she was suspended with pay. Thanks to C.R. for the tip. That being said, I don’t think it changes the fact that this officer is being targeted for attempting to stop police brutality."

Apparently the public outcry has led the Bogota PD to return Regina Tasca to the force, though only after the humiliation of having her see a psychiatrist and the suspension. The two Ridgefield Park officers Chris Thibault and Joe Rella were never investigated for punching Kyle in the head.


"The official report on the matter, which was written by retired Judge Richard Donohue, claims that Kyle "was aggressive [and] started to walk away…." Only someone incurably inhospitable to both logic and honesty would describe walking away as "aggressive" behavior. Kyle also instructed the police not to step on his property, which was a lawful order the police were required to obey. Instead, Sgt. Chris Thibault tackled Kyle, wrapped him in a bear hug, and attempted to handcuff him. Within an instant, Sgt. Joe Rella piled on and began to slug Kyle in the head while his horrified mother screamed at the officers to stop.


According to Thibault, it was necessary to assault Kyle because he believed "danger is near for us if we let this kid go."

No, really. That’s what Thibault said, under oath, during Tasca’s disciplinary hearing.

Tasca instinctively did what any legitimate peace officer would do: She intervened to protect the victim, pulling Rella off the helpless and battered young man. Tasca’s act was one of instinctive decency, genuine principle, and no small amount of courage. It was also the action dictated by her department’s use-of-force policy, the first page of which specifies that it is "the responsibility of law enforcement to take steps possible to prevent or stop the illegal or inappropriate use of force by other officers."

In his report on the case, Judge Donohue acknowledged that Tasca acted in compliance with the use-of-force policy – but he dismissed that fact on the preposterous grounds that "no evidence was presented to establish that Officer Tasca even knew about the document."

Only an uncommonly inventive sophist would pretend that the important question is whether Tasca was aware of the document stating the policy, rather than whether her actions were in accord with that policy."

This message is intended for Sgt. Joe " Da Headpuncher" Rella;

You may think that you have escaped justice, and for now you have. However, from this point on your life will be made a living hell until you voluntarily turn in your badge and gun. Maybe Dunkin' Donuts is hiring, that would be a better career option, you may feel free to take out your anger on balls of dough.

Time to make the donuts, Sgt. Joe Rella!!

We are anonymous. We do not forget. We do not forgive.

Hiding in plain sight?

So the question remains, if we want to make the life of Joe "Da Headpuncher" Rella a living hell until he voluntarily quits his job on the force in Ridgefield Park, NJ, then what should happen to the killers of Kelly Thomas?

Officers Manny Ramos and Cicinelli were on trial and are no longer employed by the Fullerton PD. however, they remain free and able to walk around while Kelly Thomas is being consumed by worms beneath the Earth.

So then...

The question remains, if it is possible for two or three psych techs to restrain an individual without causing harm, how can these cops claim that they needed to beat Kelly Thomas into a coma which resulted in his death five days later?

Should the former Fullerton officers responsible for the death of Kelly Thomas remain free?

What about officer Joe Wolfe? He also joined in the beat down of Kelly Thomas yet he remains on the force. What kind of justice is that?

At about the 14:30 mark of the Kelly Thomas murder video something happens. Suddenly the mood of Manny Ramos changes from one of bored hostility to outright aggression. He has just gone to the back of the patrol car and has had a conversation with Joe Wolfe who has been sifting through Thomas’s scant possessions in his backpack.

When Ramos returns to Kelly he immediately dons the latex gloves that a helpful Wolfe had previously given him (“take these you may need them”) and begins to verbally threaten the homeless man. “See these fists? These fists are about to fuck you up…” For his part Thomas seems to sense the ramped up hostility. When Ramos tries to grab his shoulder Kelly brushes away the cop’s hand and stands. Immediately sensing his peril he puts his hands up and begins slowly backing away. It’s too late.

Suddenly Wolfe appears almost on cue; at the top of the frame he emerges from behind the patrol car, where, a mere 15 feet away he must have been perfectly aware of what was going on. As Kelly continues to back away toward the front of the car, Wolfe lunges at him, swinging his baton; immediately he is joined by Ramos who takes a swing to, too. As Kelly begins to flee rightward in front of the car and out of the frame, we can’t see what happens next; but Ramos has evidently managed to grab or tackle Thomas as Wolfe, who has circled counterclockwise around the back of the car, piles on.

So here’s my question: how can Joe Wolfe be exonerated from any wrongdoing by the DA? Barely fifteen feet from the exchange between Ramos and Kelly, he must have known exactly what was going on; he also knew who he was dealing with; and he actually struck the first, illegal blow with his stick. So why was Joe Wolfe never charged with a crime?"

My prayers go out to Kelly Thomas's father, himself an officer. My prayers are also with Chris Dorner, may he live on to fight another day. We need more good cops like Chris Dorner to balance the scales of justice. May Chris Dorner remain free and able to continue his most important work. The Soveriegn Citizens movement has your back!

From this point on i'm quitting "the left" and joining up with the Sovereign Citizens movement. The Alligatorians support my choice to declare independence from the U.S. government police state. From this point on i no longer recognize the authority of the police, DEA, FBI, CIA and any government authority who tries to put thier hands on me will get it in the neck. Fuck these goddam tyrants, i'll see to it that Ramos, Cicinelli and Wolfe get put into the ground, they can join the worm buffet..
