Of course, the information we have at this point is via a media source, so I take it with a shaker full of salt. However, here goes...

I agree! This raises my BS flag, also. Pohl and his friend told Hamilton they were attacked in the front driveway of the soldier's home as they were trying to flee. An LEO feels the need to flee and is then attacked, but does not call in the troops????? What missing here? Then again, it doesn't even say that he has a couple shots before filing a report...it says "before he awakened his wife and she helped him get to a hospital".



It should also be noted that NONE of the INVOLVED parties are reported to have called for the police. If I read the article correctly, the police "began investigating after a neighbor saw the fight and called 9-1-1". Doesn't make any sense that Pohl and his buddy follow these soldiers home, uninvited, acts "very bizarre" while in their presence, apparently claiming that he is a police chief, is reported to throw the first punch, and yet none of the soldiers or their wives call the police. Hell, if my own Chief showed up at my house , uninvited, acting that way I'd call in the troops just to have some witnesses to his actions in the event that I had to break his nose.


I hope that they did not actually assault the Chief

...even IF he was asking for it.

I hope that they did not actually assault the Chief, and find the allegation that he was run over by his drinking buddy curious. I do wonder what the sober wives and neighbor's statements say? The statements by the participants are usually somewhat skewed.


I, also, find it curiously odd that there is no mention of any corroborating statements by sober wives or neighbor's (especially the one who calls the police after seeing the fight) is included. Wonder why???



This should be interesting.

I hate to speculate on anything not having FACTUAL INFORMATION, but I'd bet that, had no outside party called 911, this would have died an uneventful death without anyone knowing any better.
