In reply to the discussion: AP source: Dorner's license found in burned cabin [View all]midwest irish
(155 posts)8. I call bull crap
It was reported last week that Dorner's wallet was found in San Diego.
http://www.mercurynews.com/crime-courts/ci_22574920/key-events-hunt-ex-la-cop-christopher-dorner
" Thursday, Feb. 7: A shuttle bus driver turns in a wallet with an LAPD badge and a picture ID of Dorner to San Diego police. The wallet was found fewer than five miles from the boat, near San Diego International Airport. "
Just google Dorner wallet + San Diego.
He clearly didnt have his wallet because the police reported it was in their possession. So you're telling me that this guy left his wallet in San Diego, it got turned into the police, then he somehow got it back because it was so crucial to his plan of hiding out in the woods? Negate for a moment the fact that his wallet was in a police evidence room; why would he be carrying a wallet in his situation? Was he worried his ID would get checked at a gas station when he went to buy some smokes? The ID is only a hindrance both in the space it takes up and revealing his identity if questioned. What was the rational for him to have it?
It is clear that the cops brought the wallet with them and then planted the evidence on the dead body in the cabin. This is, after all, the LAPD we are talking about. I wouldn't be surprised if they beat him to death and then started the fire and initiated the "standoff" to hide the evidence from the coroner. Then the id was planted to prove it was him.

This "story' is totally unofficial and anonymous anyway. no way a license survived that fire.

'a picture ID' and badge were found; it wasn't specified it was a driver's license

Most cops I know keep their shield and ID separate from their regular wallet.

But Dorner's shield(s) and LAPD ID would have been taken from him when he was fired, right?

No, it was a picture ID and his badge, not his driver's license. Link below to time line.

If he isn't turned into ash, totally burnt, they can tell a lot during an autopsy.
