Ouch, that one must sting.

Very poignant and I love what you did, but that one hurts and I am 2,000 miles away from Adams County.

I didn't vote for him in the last election and will not again in this election! Zollman himself was in on the following the woman to her residence turning his red and blue lights off and on! Of course the judge dismissed the harassment charges that were filed. The person who is running against Zollman, his name is Tom Watts is from Nevada and wants to bring his buddies up if he wins. That is what Zollman did! Lord have mercy on Adams County residents. I am a law abiding citizen but I am scared!

That wasn't a compliment, Donna. Look up Lon Horiuchi's Wikipedia page. He belonged to the same 'elite' FBI unit that set up the 'capture' of that Constitution-wielding desperado LaVoy Finicum.

Lon had a similar personality as Brian Wood. In other words, he too had no business being in law enforcement.

You can't make this stuff up: “I don’t know how much you guys know into [Wood’s] background, but he – he is an advanced, skilled sniper,” Lt. Phillips told ISP investigators. “I mean, I sent him to the FBI academy … their advance sniper school and he came out on top.”

Yup, rumor is that Wood even won the Lon Horiuchi Most Likely To Succeed Award.

But I thought every donut molestor was a Sargent York type hero? (not really)
I laughed my ass off over that no freakin' clue comment. Bwahahah!
Maybe it was rifle envy? The big bad scary rancher rifle was just too much for someone with an overrated overhyped .22LR gun.
Drag those .223 guns through the snow, sand, mud, and let us know how that works out.
Don't clean the AR-15 for a few months after various shooting sessions and see how it operates.
The good old Russian 7.62x39mm AK and SKS rifle is still the best for harsh conditions and easy use for even the dumb Mongolian recruit.

2016-08-03T20:12:59.621-06:00

I might humbly suggest that the good people of Adams Co. avoid as much contact with the Sheriff's dept as possible by not calling 911. In this day and age of speed dial and smart phones, there's no reason not to have the ambulance co., the fire department, and any other phone number you might need directly at the touch of a button. The people on the other end are going to get called anyway, and you can trust them to respond UNARMED and actually help you. Leave the sheriff's department to what they love to do best; collecting easy money by armed roadside extortion of passing motorists. Responding to anything else is just not in their skill set.

I know Lawrence real well,have watched him from the time he was assistant A.G. for All lance
and worked for Owyhee County D.A.

From somebody who has a Theology background that he has. It is very disturbing indeed!!
The powers of the dark side must be very intoxicating?

Donna - ND

Attempting to appease a sociopath feeds the rage. I'm not sure they really want to be stopped, but somewhere in their twisted personalities they know damn well they are wrong and possess no shutoff switch. They have to be contained from the outside.

First of all, people having to deal with them must stop thinking, "I would never do that, so I must be imagining this. Maybe I'm doing something wrong to provoke these behaviors."

How many incidents does this county sheriff, or the State for that matter, need before this guy laughs his way through increasing violence on everyone in his path?

In elementary school my favorite uncle taught me, "The only way you can deal with a bully is with a bigger stick."

This deputy goes way, way beyond being a schoolyard 'bully'. He's a mad dog.

Anyone following his lead or looking the other way is 'nuts', too!

Putting Anonymous 12:14's great post into perspective-

"Zollman still garners a lot of support from the community because he is a 'really nice guy'."
...who, according to Lt. Steven Phillips, doesn’t have a f***in’ clue how to do his job. He's in way over his head and doesn't have a clue what to do about having a sociopath as an employee.

Apparently, people a thousand miles from Council, Idaho (me) are paying more attention to what goes on in Adams County than do many residents.

This incident is a stark illustration of the vital importance of making a video recording of any encounter with cops. And if a cop tells you to stop recording or fork over your phone/camera, resist!

Thank you very much for writing this. It is a very clear, concise and above all else entirely true account of the kind of crap we have been putting up with since the moron Ryan Zollman won the election three long years ago. His deputies have raped a drunken woman in a patrol car, assaulted and severly injured a 74-year old woman during a suspected DUI stop, somehow let a suicidal man into a jail cell with two disposable lighters in his pocket which he used to set himself on fire, terrified another elderly woman by tailgating and brightlighting her for miles down a dirt road all the way to her house, allowed one dangerous criminal to escape and terrify the whole town because the jailer was too stupid to count to five when he let the prisoners back inside from the tiny exercise yard... and of course shot an innocent man twelve times for no logical reason whatsoever and then somehow got away with it. The list goes on. This department has made state-wide headlines for no less than five seperate incidents. At one point, there were more lawsuits against the county than there were employees who worked in the Sheriff's office. All this in a tiny rural county with a population of about 4000 people. But somehow, Zollman still garners a lot of support from the community because he is a "really nice guy".

Oh, the irony of "law and order" in this US of A. You know my situation, Will. Sure hope I don't become a target. The other deputy has threatened legal action against me already. And dialing 9-1-1 for me would bring Zollman or one of his compliant deputies.

>>... Following the shooting, Wood had become separated from his wife, and appeared to descend into something resembling a psychosis.

Oh, I have no doubt he was already psychotic long before that. He was already psychotic when he applied for a LEO job. Most of 'em are.

>>... On several occasions, Phillips told the ISP, Wood suggested “he was gonna hurt himself ... he was “talkin’ about blowin’ himself up.”

I, for one, hope he does just that. And soon. My Christian charity has been worn threadbare.

it is impossible for me to tell who is the craziest among those listed considering the actions/words of wood and 'officialdom'.

this is absolutely incredible!

make no mistake: wood will become WORSE because of the way this has been handled. what then?

people like wood eventually run up on the wrong type, act as they usually do, with the outcome not quite as they thought and radically different from their previous bullying and murdering intents and actions, followed by printing of the obituary of the bullying murderer.

it is too bad that such types as wood are not stopped BEFORE such events takes place. in the end, fault and cause can be laid square at the feet of 'officialdom' in addition to the murderous lunatic they protected and sent back out with predictable results.

On page 236 of the Incident Summary:

https://www.scribd.com/document/319696402/Reports-on-Yantis-Homicide

a witness named Tamara Sue Evanow stated that Jack Yantis' rifle was still pointing in the direction of the bull when she heard the first shots fired.
I'm assuming that the person who was hollering 'Shoot that thing' was Brian Wood, who I believe was already ticked off that Jack had insulted his 'prized' short barreled AR15.

I find it interesting that Ms. Evanow's account wasn't of interest to the ISP investigators. But then again I think I know why it wasn't.

Thanks for your work on this, Mr. Grigg. I wanted to e-mail you about this, but I couldn't find your contact information anywhere.
