ICE notified Moore in late August that he was going to be fired and instructed him to come to the agency’s Philadelphia office, according to two federal officials who also spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss personnel matters. ICE had identified issues in his past, the officials said, including being fired from other law enforcement agencies.
The 38-year-old father of two had fought for his job when supervisors wanted to fire him in the past.
This time, he parked his car in a lot outside the office, and he had his gun. Law enforcement officers tried to stop him, but Moore eventually shot and killed himself, according to the Philadelphia Police Department.
A compilation of the greatest hits:
When he was 18, his mother reported to police that he had driven her car without permission…
Moore arrested an on-duty jail captain in May 2018 during a dispute over a prisoner.
During one of their assignments together, he said, Moore shattered a car window to reach allegedly undocumented immigrants inside. “It was like, whoa, why did this guy break this window out?” the former officer said…
A Ford truck traveling around 40 mph had struck the driver’s side of Moore’s blue Toyota Camry at around 5:15 a.m. … The report noted Moore had entered the roadway “improperly” and drove “carelessly.” …
“Taking my credentials and gun makes me feel like a leper,” Moore wrote. “There’s no greater insult to a cop.”
“People shouldn’t have to die for this.”
That’s right, Good, Pretti, and hundreds of others should not have had to die for this.
Wow, I’m sorry for the people who lost him but if that isn’t evidence that he should never have been given a gun I don’t know what is. We’re all just lucky he turned it on himself in a moment of dispair instead of someone else.
Awww the shit bag group backstabbing people here legally backstabbed him? What a fucking surprise.
Every ICE agent should eat their pistol. Let’s get a trend going.
They have served their theatrical purpose for the fan base. They can be disposed of now.
Republicans will need a secret police even more. I think they’re just weeding out the amateurs, and hiring men who can be trained a little more, to use their brutality more efficiently.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Thoughts and prayers.
Too shitty or not shitty enough of a person for ICE, I wonder…?
Imagine wanting to work for ICE so bad that you off yourself when they don’t even want you…
Are we supposed to feel bad for this guy? I’m confused…
Sounds like a two-time loser. In his first job he arrested a jail captain(!) and was told to quit. He got another cop job in another town, but then:
The Lower Frederick Township Board of Supervisors determined that he should be let go after he filed erroneous police reports, endorsed a vendor’s gear without permission, wore an unauthorized firearm and failed to appear at an alleged intoxicated driver’s court hearing, according to official township records filed in court.
(His family disputes the allegations, naturally.)
The likely scenario is that he had been fired from previous law enforcement jobs, probably for violent behavior, and this was his last chance. He eventually got violent enough in this job that he became a liability. Perhaps he was already involved in a bad situation. So given his past, it was best to end further liability.
He understood that he was at the absolute end of his law enforcement career.
And he would rather die than get an education.
Womp womp 🎺
Didn’t the signing bonus hit after some months to a year on the job? Of course Trump and team would try to wlech on it as much as possible and fire people before bonuses got paid out.
As I recall, it was years. Enough time that the orange moron and his handlers will fire them for “performance” reasons and they will (rightly) never see that bonus.
It was five years IIRC. I remember thinking at the time it was plenty of time for a change of government.
After doing contracting for years I don’t know why anyone would trust “signing bonuses” that aren’t paid out immediately. If you don’t have it paid immediately, there is no bonus. It’s the same as “contract-to-hire” after 6 months. You aren’t getting converted at 6 months. It’s a 6 month contract then you’re out. They’re just dangling a carrot barely out of reach

this hasn’t been my experience at all but maybe i’m just a model employee? (this comment typed during work hours)
2016 i went from working for a help desk service provider > a private industry help desk who went 6 months contract to hire. mediocre wages and shit commute but was a huge leg up and got specialized training within a year.
2024 i went 6 month contract to hire for a remote contractor in that specialized dev field and got them to provide the job offer in writing 3 months early as a basis for me to secure a home loan.

The hiring pool is people who were too dumb to become cops
Yeah I’ve always just factored my “bonus” into my total compensation, as it is paid out in an asinine way like that. I plan to move on after the last installment to ensure I reach the same level of compensation, which is on them for paying a somewhat lower base salary than others imo. It is annoying that it framed as some kind of bonus when it really just gives a slight edge to my overall salary. They have paid out so far though.
I don’t even consider it when thinking about compensation. It’s a nice to have, but unless it’s recurring, like a union signing bonus, then the longer I’m there the worse it is, and I really prefer some stability
“contract-to-hire” after 6 months. You aren’t getting converted at 6 months
Yeah. File in with the other “lies recruiters tell that no one believes”; like the “we’re a family” and “work hard, play hard”.
The thugs are disposable, the real point of ICE is to funnel money to companies lie GEO group.
That and just being the means to an end without caring how we get there. ICE are being used as Gestapo agents to realign the population in the way that these fascists want it either through mass deportations, abductions or generally terrorizing the people they identify as undesirable. They don’t care about ICE itself, but more the end result that comes of it.
Officer down
Technically he was no longer an officer of anything. Fired 3 times.
Ground pork
Geez I hope there is at least some percentage of a way those kids end up okay.
Growing up watching your own dad be an evil sack of shit who made his own life terrible enough to end it by suicide…
I could see that at least sending the message “don’t be an evil sack of shit”. Or it could traumatize them into following daddy’s footsteps… seems like these kinds of things tend to end in extreme good or extreme bad.
