McLean, VA (June 3, 2025) - On October 6, 1995, Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Police Officers Scot Lewis and Keith DeVille were flagged down by a motorist who needed help. The two officers were just seven minutes from the end of their shift. It turned out that the man who flagged them down could neither speak, nor hear. While the two officers waited for an interpreter to arrive, another motorist drove up and pretended to know the deaf man. He engaged in some friendly conversation, then got out of his car, walked up to Scot, pulled out a gun and without any provocation whatsoever, shot him in the head at point-blank range. Officer Lewis, 28, would die three days later. The assailant tried to escape after grabbing Scot’s gun, but Officer DeVille fatally shot him as he was attempting to get away. Later it was learned that the cop killer had been on a three-day drug binge and simply decided to go out and kill a cop. Listen to the podcast to learn more.
