McLean, VA (November 19, 2024) - By all accounts, Sergeant George Sullivan, 43, was one of the most respected and likeable persons working at the University of Nevada, Reno Police Department. But his life ended tragically. Just after midnight on January 13, 1998, he made a traffic stop and 30 minutes later his body was found next to his patrol car, just inside the south end of the campus. Sergeant Sullivan had been killed with repeated blows to his head by a hatchet. It turned out that his killer had selected his victim at random. Witnesses reported that in the days leading up to the brutal murder the killer had repeatedly stated, “I want to kill a cop.” George Sullivan left behind a wife and five children. His killer was convicted of first degree murder and was on death row awaiting execution when he died in 2023. Listen to the podcast to learn more.
