Christopher is accused of waging a one-man war against the Seattle police. In the fall of 2009, police vehicles parked in a vehicle maintenance yard in Seattle were firebombed. Several were destroyed and many damaged in the action. A few days later a communique was issued tying the incident to the beating of a young girl held in custody by Seattle Police.
On October 31, 2009, Seattle police officer Timothy Brenton was killed and his partner, Britt Sweeney wounded. According to the Seattle police Brenton was sitting in the passenger seat
of a patrol car with Sweeney discussing a just completed traffic stop near the corner of 29th Avenue and East Yesler Way when a vehicle pulled alongside the patrol car and an occupant opened fire. Officer Brenton was killed instantly. Sweeney was grazed in the back by one shot. She was able to get out of the patrol car, return fire several times at the fleeing vehicle, and call for additional units. During the investigation, detectives and officers linked Monfort’s car to the crime, and attempted to arrest Monfort at his apartment. When officers arrived, Monfort is alleged to have pulled a gun and opened fire. Monfort was shot by police and is now paralyzed. Christopher is facing the death penalty in Washington state for his alleged actions.
Since the start of court proceedings, Monfort has been very outspoken about the role of police and has consistently called on other people in the United States to confront police terror in their communities and use armed tactics to do so if necessary. Christopher Monfort’s court proceedings continue and his fate is unclear. He can use any and all support available.
