Can you confirm youve been listening live to a press conference in santa cruz with the citys mayor, the citys police chief and the county sheriff. Talking about yesterdays Fatal Shooting of two Police Officers as well as the death of the suspected gunman. Ktvus Eric Rasmussen is live from the newsroom with a summary of some of the new information that weve learned in the press conference. Right. Of course, this was an emotional News Conference hearing from the police chief today. Moments ago, were hearing these new details from the sheriff of Santa Cruz County and some of them are just chilling about what happened yesterday when these two detectives, police detectives, went to check out what the sheriff described as a misdemeanor case of Sexual Assault, a situation the sheriff said they did not expect that it would be in any significant danger. Of course, that comment is made with the caveat that officers working the street understand that at all times theres a chance that their lives are in danger. But in this particular case, the sheriff suggested that they werent especially worried about going out to check out this man, 35yearold Jeremy Goulet. The sheriff says that they were killed at his doorstep and that upon further investigation, there had been witness statements that werent rerelayed to relayed to the detectives that he was distraught, that he might hurt others. That he had three handguns and body armor before he was chased down, and caught and then waves the Law Enforcement came to the scene after the shooting. Earlier we heard from the Santa Cruz Police chief who talked about this case. Chief vogel said his Small Department is reeling from this terrible loss. Its been devastating. Theres absolutely no words for me to adequately describe for you what my department has been going through since yesterday afternoon. And the chief went on to talk about the officers, butch baker and Elizabeth Butler. Heres more what he had to say. I had a special relationship with butch. He and i started with the department at the same time. We worked as partners together back in the early 1990s. We worked well together. We were close. We were good friends. We worked a lot of cases together. Detective Elizabeth Butler has been with the department for the last ten years. She worked in patrol as a police officer. She was assigned to our Narcotics Task force for a period of time and then became a detective in this Investigation Section and found her niche in the case of Sexual Assault cases. Thats where her expertise really lied. Thats the type of case that she was investigating yesterday when this tragic event happened. When it comes to butch baker, the sheriff said this investigation, the contact they were making with the suspect yesterday is something that he had done thousands of times. After the two detectives were shot and killed, investigators believe that butch bakers vehicle was stolen but the suspect Jeremy Goulet was not able to leave the immediate area because of that overwhelming response from Law Enforcement. In fact, at some point there was an exchange of gunfire where citizens were actually in the street. There was even a unit from the Santa Cruz Fire Department that was there. Their fire truck took bullets in that dunnfight went on. Moments ago we heard from the sheriff who talked about the sacrifice that these two officers made investigating this case. Theres no doubt in any ones mind that the officer in anyones mind that the officers stopped an imminent threat to the community sand neutralized that problem and neutralized that problem and protected those people they were sworn to protect. The sheriff is encouraging other witnesses who saw what happened, may have recorded video to come forward and they them understand exactly what happened.
