Summary: San Antonio police officer Fabian Dominguez was driving home from work when he spotted a burglary in progress at a residence. Dominguez, who was still in his uniform, pulled into the driveway of the residence, blocking a car occupied by Johnathan Moore, Pete Dowdle and Paul Cameron, who were finishing their second trip to burglarize the home. Gun drawn, Dominguez approached the vehicle and repeatedly ordered the three men to get out of the car to no avail. After taking the car keys from Dowdle, the driver, Dominguez approached the passenger side of the car with his gun drawn at which point Moore, who was in the front passenger seat, pulled out a .25 caliber automatic gun and shot Dominguez. Moore got out of the car, recovered the car keys and retuned them to Dowdle. Moore then grabbed Dominguez’s gun and shot the officer three times in the head. Following his arrest, Moore signed a full and detailed confession. His accomplices, who were arrested a short time after his arrest: Peter Dowdle is serving a 25-year prison term. Paul Cameron is serving a life sentence.
Final/Special Meal: Kraft Cheese & Macaroni, Beef Flavored Rice-A-Roni.
Final Words: Johnathan Moore repeatedly apologized to the officer's widow. "It was done out of fear, stupidity and immaturity. I’m sorry. I did not know the man but for a few seconds before I shot him. It wasn’t until I got locked up and saw that newspaper, I saw his face and his smile and I knew he was a good man. I am sorry for all your family and for my disrespect — he deserved better. He wished her happiness. He then counseled a friend who was a witness to quit using heroin and methadone. He told his father that he loved him.
