Two Highway Patrol Officers were conducting speeding enforcement on 1-15, just north of Oceanside, San Diego, California .... One of the officers was using a hand held radar device to check speeding vehicles approaching the crest of a hill. The officers were suddenly surprised when the radar gun began reading 300 miles per hour and climbing. The officer attempted to reset the radar gun, but it would not reset and then it suddenly turned off Just then a deafening roar over the treetops revealed that the radar had in fact locked on to a USMC F/A-18 Hornet which was engaged in a low flying exercise near this, it's home base location. Back at the California Highway Patrol Headquarters the Patrol Captain fired off a complaint to the US Marine Corps. Base Commander for shutting down his equipment. The reply came back in true USMC style: `Thank you for your letter... You may be interested to know that the tactical computer in the Hornet had detected the presence of , and subsequently locked on to, your hostile radar equipment and automatically sent a jamming signal back to it, which is why it shut down.. Furthermore, an Air-to-Ground missile aboard the fully armed aircraft had also automatically locked on to your equipment location. Fortunately, the Marine Pilot flying the Hornet recognized the situation for what it was, quickly responded to the missile system alert status and was able to override the automated defense system before the missile was launched to destroy the hostile radar position. The pilot suggests you cover your mouths when cussing at them, since the video systems on these jets are very high tech. Sergeant Johnson, the officer holding the radar gun, should get his dentist to check his left rear molar. It appears the filling is loose. Also, the snap is broken on his holster.' Semper Fi dL I PRESENTATION AND BOOK SIGNING Michael R. King, Author, • July 24, 2010 Heritage Center, 21 N. Main Street, Tropic, UT 7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. Michael R. King's book, "Jane...A Woman's Determination and the Wild-West Frontier", is the topic of this timely presentation. It is the remarkable true account of his greatgreat grandmother, Jane Walton, who emigrated from the U.K. to trek across country with other early pioneers through the Hole-In-The-Rock in Southern Utah. Surviving those immense challenges and hardships, she was ultimately shot and killed on July 24, 1891 at the age of 45. Mr. King's presentation occurs on Utah's Pioneer Day, the 119th anniversary of her death. His research into her life and death is fascinating reading. He will discuss the history of the Hole-In-The-Rock pioneers, and describe his research into Jane Walton's life, her wary friendship with Chief Posey, the circumstances surrounding her untimely death, and ultimately his discovery of the true killer. Mr. King is a well-known Utah police writer, author and/ or co-author of "Predators, Who Are They and How Do We stop Them", "Cold Case Methodology", "Profilers", "Who Killed King Tut", "Analyzing Criminal Behavior" as well as numerous articles. Mr. King, a Utahn, has an extensive and distinguished law enforcement background, and, amongst other posts, was an investigator with the Utah Attorney General's office during which time he was trained as a criminal profiler by the FBI. Although retired, he actively consults internationally with major police forces. In addition, he appeared in a leading role in the Emmy Award-winning production of "The Assassination of King Tut", and worked exclusively for the Discovery Channel and A&E's Mysteries on the "Curse of King Tut". He holds a Masters of Criminal Justice degree and a BA in Criminal Justice, and serves as an adjunct faculty member at Salt Lake Community College and Weber State University. Additionally, he is a member of the Harvard Medical School Program in Psychiatry and the Law, and is a Visiting Scholar for the School of Nursing at Boston College.
