I don't believe these cops were being "flagged down" by Chris or anyone else with them. They just didn't want any heat for their parts in his disappearance and death AND it makes the story more mysterious.

I can't believe that it's already been 18 years sense he's been gone. It sucks that he had to go like that.

They took off running as I think (if I remember correctly), Chris was on probation at the time and underage for drinking. I think if anything, it was the cops "vigilance" to "clean" up the city of a couple underage drinkers. Ridiculous IMO and Chris will and is insanely missed, a true friend, AKA Thimbus Mcloud of the clan Mcloud, AKA Fuckles the clown king of carny tricks.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07075349243221364162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-30202070611256350712010-02-02T13:51:51.821-06:002010-02-02T13:51:51.821-06:00No one flagged down a policeman.

Chris returned to his friends' house (that he had just left) and knocked on the door. Unfortunately, nobody would let him in. That's when the chase began and due to the "vigilance" of the VU cops, Chris ended up in the river.<br />(By the way, Chris weighed approximately 145 pounds, not the 195 mistakenly reported.)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07291080519843222599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-11294943814682060652009-09-03T06:20:47.372-05:002009-09-03T06:20:47.372-05:00bullshit the pigs!!!! killed his ass!!!! u follow ...bullshit the pigs!!!! killed his ass!!!! u follow me!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-73276062286578755782009-05-02T19:44:00.000-05:002009-05-02T19:44:00.000-05:00Too many reports of innocent victims being terrifi...Too many reports of innocent victims being terrified of police. <br /><br />I don't even know if I believe it. Could it be disinformation. <br /><br />Could there be a harrassment program within the department.<br /><br />With the privatization of prisons and the payoff of judges by thes prison corporations to send them people to make money off of, I wonder if cops are collecting innocents for a reward. (sick sounding-i know) But Judges have been caught accepting bribes for sending harmless, practically innocent people and children to jail. I think it was Pennsylvania.<br /><br />Privatizing prisons is never a good idea. The Corps. are getting tax money to keep prisoners. To a profit monger, they only care about the bottom line, stockholders, not the prisoner.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-29371446761692443622009-04-20T00:02:00.000-05:002009-04-20T00:02:00.000-05:00OMG...I had been pondering that scenario for a few...OMG...I had been pondering that scenario for a few days, but with the disappearance of Dan Zamlen.<br /><br />I have strong intution, as well as good logical reasoning skills, and what I get from my intuition on this particular case is that he didn't know it was a cop, i.e. was panicking and was flagging down anyone.<br /><br />I'm wondering if the cop shined a light at him which scared him even more, causing him to flee.<br /><br />Several of these men seem to have reported being chased, and if by chance this young man was chased, then he might have confused the cop for being one of the people chasing him.<br /><br />Very strange. This is a case that definately needs more follow-up.Doc Conjurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08569054730270980353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-17991860351074413982008-11-01T16:06:00.000-05:002008-11-01T16:06:00.000-05:00Thats exactly what ran through my head when i read...Thats exactly what ran through my head when i read this story.WisconsinitePridehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12818847576232727475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-67413429848274127002008-07-12T07:03:00.000-05:002008-07-12T07:03:00.000-05:00Maybe he had an encounter with a fake policeman,so...Maybe he had an encounter with a fake policeman,so he changed his mind after flagging down a real one and ran.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
