Atlanta Cop Murders Woman He Met Online (2014, high school)

Apparently the victim just moved from New York to Atlanta. I'm stunned that it was a cop who killed her.

Atlanta Cop Murdered Woman, Set Body On Fire: Police

Why don't you post about the 300+ murders in Chicago this year in the Chicago forum? What about the 37 shootings there over the weekend?

Probably because Fox News, The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC, HLN, Yahoo.com news, Cumulus Radio network and various other corporate media outlets have already beaten the Chicago murder topic to death.

Which is why you seem to know so much about it, I would assume.

I'm actually shocked this happened. One of my friends in DC told me about it.

What's really scary is the unknown in this situation, and this quote from the story:

Rana has been with the Atlanta Police since 2011, and was described as a hard-working officer with a clean disciplinary record.

There are usually two reason someone would do something like he did:

1.) In a fit of rage, he murdered her and tried to hide the evidence.

2.) He planned all along to lure this woman with the intent of killing her. In other words, like a serial killer.

Given he just met this woman, option one is extremely unlikely. That means that this guy had kept up the facade of a hardworking, by the books officer during the day and by night was sociopath. Given that his record was clean, it makes you wonder how many other victims there could potentially be. He grew up on the Southside and, like everyone who grew up there, knows that there plenty of near abandoned streets and factories all over the place to hide evidence.

Interestingly, I had learned about this not from the news but from a Facebook page from my high school since Rana attended the same school as I did though I graduated almost 20 years ahead of him. According to some of the posts on that thread, he had been known for being "not right" (which is 'hood from crazy) and generally creepy. I'm convinced this is just the tip of the iceberg.

I don't think he is an experienced serial killer. He had left many internet and phone records tying him to the victim; he shot the victim with his service weapon; he tried to get rid of the body by burning it; he disposed the body in an open field which was quickly spotted. No way an experienced killer makes all of these basic mistakes.

Perhaps, but in most cases involving serial killers are usually solved when they get sloppy and leave all kinds of evidence that will lead back to them. There is a good chance he isn't one, but he is clearly a sociopath.

I'd like to have a reaction to it, but I just don't. Perhaps it's lack of respect for authority or low expecttions for performance, but I don't feel shocked any more than if it had been the man in the moon.
