Complaint Review: Officers Matthew Schauerhamer and Nicholas Judson Saratoga Springs Judge Jury and Executioners - Saratoga Springs Utah

On September 10, 2014 Saratoga Springs Utah police officers Matthew Schauerhamer and Nicholas Judson summarily executed 22 year old Darrien Hunt for allegedly "brandishing" a sword.  Those close to Darrien say he was dressed as a samurai following Comic Con activities in Salt Lake City the week prior. 

While the thin blue line is towing the line and covering for their fraternity by claiming this young man lunged toward these officers with a sword, the family of Darrien Hunt hired a respected Utah pathologist to perform an independent examination of the body and determined that all six gun shots were to Darrien's BACK, with the fatal shot entering his back with NO EXIT WOUND (a very damning indictment against these two murderous thugs if proven true).

It is becoming increasingly disturbing to hear stories of so called grown men in body armor with guns, tazers, badges, as well as physical and firearms training to act like scared little boys justifying their sociopathic homicidal ways by claiming they were in fear for their lives because someone looked at them the wrong way, said boo to them, failed to fall prostrate before them like a dog, blah, blah, blah!!!  And for that, it justifies using the public they have sworn to serve and protect as their living firing range?  Remember this Chief Andrew Burton and Utah County Attorney Jeff Buhman, you work for the people and better start taking the recent protests and requests for full disclosure seriously.  Reign in your sociopaths and rewrite more responsible and respectful rules of engagement. We want honest answers and your offices have been found to be inconsistent and dishonest.

We get a glimpse into the morbid, authoritarian, racist and self-righteous mind of these murderous scumbags by reading a police blog posted by Matther Shauerhamer at www.crossroadsjournal.net/saratoga-springs-police-blotter-3/  Here Officer Matt does the typical self-righteous judgment of a book by its cover by lumping devout listeners of Bob Marley with serious drug use.  Officer Schauerhamer betrays the same hypocrisy as was recently exposed linking heavy internet pornography viewing to notable religious demographics around the country.  From his blog, Officer Shauerhamer sounds like such a boy scout, but the truth is he a sociopathic murderer with an alleged history of complaints for abusing his authority. His disturbing mindset, no doubt, is what led to the trigger happy judgment and execution of a young black man who technically and legally according to Utah State Law, had every right to open carry not only a sword, but an AR-15, even an AK47 if he had so chosen to.

The disturbing part of this tragedy doesn't seem to stop with these two mentally ill control freak officers.  The family is demanding the release of patrol camera footage, which will put the whole matter to rest and coincide with the true pathologist report of non-aggression by Darrien Hunt and cowardly back shooting by these officers.  The Saratogs Springs Police Chief Andrew Barton claims to cherish transparency, but has so far covered for the murderous behavior of his officers and colluded with the Utah County Attorney's Office run by Jeff Buhman, to downplay this crime.

The peaceful but unrelenting protest of this matter will continue.  If the independent pathologist report is proven to be true, then Jeff Buhman needs to do the right thing and file murder charges against Officers Matthew Schauerhamer and Nicholas Judson.
