| Subject: John Geer Shooting: ‘I Don’t Want To Die Today,’ Unarmed Dad Of 2 Pleads — Officer Kills Him Anyway Wed Feb 04, 2015 7:58 pm | |
| After the bullet struck him in the chest, Geer took a step back into his townhouse, closed the front door and collapsed to the floor. There, he bled to death as police waited nearly an hour before calling in medical assistance. Instead, police called in a SWAT team, which smashed in the door of Geer’s home with a military-style armored truck. When SWAT officers stormed into the home, Geer was dead. Torres can be heard telling an investigator the following in the audio recording, above. “I meant to pull that trigger… It’s not accidental… I don’t feel sorry for shooting the guy at all.” Geer was not accused of any crime and had no reported criminal record. He was said to be upset that Maura Harrington, his domestic partner of 24 years, who is also the mother of his two children, had informed him that she was ending their relationship. But he was speaking calmly to police before he was shot. Harrington had placed the original call to police, reporting that Geer was throwing her belongings onto the street.
The police shooting of John Geer, whose teenage daughter was also at his home when he was killed, took place on August 29, 2013. But Fairfax police had remained close-lipped about the shooting, releasing no information whatsoever about why Geer was shot, or who shot him, until last Friday, January 30, when — after being ordered to do so by a judge — the department dumped 11,000 pages of documents and 54 audio recordings of witness interviews into the public record.
