Christopher Todd Horner

His murder had remained unsolved for five years until a man in jail on another charge confessed to being involved with it after undergoing a spiritual conversion. Investigators determined that Officer Horner had encountered several men in the cemetery who had robbed a hotel several hours earlier and were planning a bank robbery.
He had the four suspects in the car exit at gunpoint; however, a fifth person had already exited the car before Officer Horner's arrival and was in a nearby orange grove.

Nicholas Lindsey
American murderer
Not to be confused with Nicholas Lindsay.
Nicholas Lindsey (born January 18, 1995) is a Florida man convicted of murder in the first degree of alaw enforcement officer from the St. Petersburg Police Department.
Background
[edit]According to records, Lindsey has a prior record for non-violent crimes such as grand theft and trespassing.[1]
Although he attended school on the day of the shooting, he had missed 40 days during the school year. Gibbs High School former principal Kevin Gordon spoke with Lindsey about cutting class. The principal and his reading intervention teacher said the teenaged suspect always complied with authority. One teacher, Karen Morse, stated that he was a typical teen who would "strive for that teacher attention to do his best." Off campus, Lindsey appeared to be a different person. Lindsey's Facebook page showed he had a gang name.
St. Petersburg mayor Bill Foster recognized Lindsey when he saw the mugshot. He met with the teen inside his home during a 2010 Outreach the Community event. It was after his first arrest for grand theft. Foster said that the teen impressed him the most and had a goal to succeed in life. Foster went on to say he wanted Lindsey tried as an adult.[2]
