racial Outburst that was captured on her body camera Valentino who had appeared frequently on the reality TV series police women of Cincinnati in 2011 had a meltdown while on duty in a marked police car on April 5th the trigger for her anger was apparently traffic related Valentino headed to The District 3 police station to complete a report upon arriving at the station she noticed several cars lined up waiting to pick up students from Western Hills University High School trying to clear the way Valentino activated her lights and siren signaling the vehicles to move however when they didn't respond she became audibly Furious she rolled down her window and instructed the drivers to move according to the report a black male student walked by and expressed his displeasure by giving Valentino the middle finger this escalated the situation further in her anger Valentino used a racial slur which was recorded on her body camera as she responded to the teenage students actions the n-word as a result of her actions Valentina was fired from her role as a police officer she tried to defend herself claiming that she doesn't hold any racial biases and doesn't use racial slurs she insisted that the Outburst was a one-time occurrence and directed solely at the teenager who provoked her however this wasn't the first time Valentino found herself in trouble in 2020 she faced charges of domestic violence and criminal damage after a fight with her sister although she pleaded not guilty her police Powers were suspended and she was given an administrative assignment the charge was eventually reduced to disorderly conduct and she was ordered by the court to attend anger management classes and serve two years of probation despite this past incident Valentino's recent Outburst filled with profanity over a minor traffic issue shows that she still struggles to control her emotions the interim police chief Teresa thee recommended Valentino's termination to the city officials and the recommendation was approved as a result Valentino was dismissed from her position in a statement Teresa thee emphasized that such hateful speech would not be tolerated from anyone whether they are sworn officers or civilian employees within the Cincinnati Police Department foreign the law and it's unclear which side of it the suspect in this case is on she was a 26-year veteran of the Los Angeles Police Department by all appearance is a model cop yet Stephanie Lazarus now faces murder charges prosecutors say that almost 25 years ago she beat and shot the wife of an ex-boyfriend and that DNA evidence proves it David Wright this case revolves around a murder that was driven by love jealousy and an almost obsessive mindset on February 24 1986 in Van Nuys Louisiana Sherry the daughter of Dr Nels Rasmussen fell victim to a brutal murder in her condo she endured three gunshot wounds severe bludgeoning and was left for dead this tragic event devastated her family particularly her father and her husband John ruten to whom she had been married for only three months Sherry shared an exceptionally close bond with her father and before her death she had confided in him that she believed someone was stalking her putting her life in jeopardy that someone turned out to be an LAPD officer named Stephanie J Lazarus Dr Rasmussen was heartbroken and determined to see his daughter's murderer brought to Justice however despite Sherry's warning the lead detective on the case disregarded Dr rasmussen's suspicions the detective attributed Sherry's murder to a failed robbery attempt dismissing any evidence that hinted at a different explanation many people suspected that the police intentionally overlooked certain aspects to Shield one of their colleagues the motive behind this heinous murder ties back to Sherry's husband John ruten before marrying Sherry John and Stephanie had a complex history together from their time at UCLA where they both graduated in 1982 although they weren't exactly College sweethearts their relationship was marked by and on-again off-again nature later on John met Sherry Rasmussen who was rapidly advancing in her career as a director of nursing at Glendale Adventist Medical Center they hit it off immediately and got married in 1985. although John seemed to have moved on from his previous relationship with Stephanie she couldn't let go Stephanie became a constant presence in their lives causing tension in the couple's relationship despite Sherry's concerns for marrying Sherry John and Stephanie had one last intimate encounter possibly seeking closure however Stephanie's obsession with John persisted leading to alarming Behavior one day she showed up at Sherry's workplace and ominously told her if I can't have

a bloody handprint beside the panic button and Sherry's lifeless body on the living room floor the police found a bite mark on Sherry's arm and collected a sample for DNA analysis unfortunately at that time the DNA testing technology wasn't Advanced enough and the case eventually went cold the case was reopened 23 years later when the LAPD acquired improved technology for DNA analysis they tested the bite mark evidence and found that the suspect was a woman the detectives discovered Stephanie lazarus's name in the files and decided to pursue her as a potential suspect in May 2009 investigators collected a sample of lazarus's saliva from a discarded coffee cup and compared it to the cotton swab taken from the crime scene the results matched subsequently Stephanie underwent interrogation was officially booked as a suspect and brought to trial during the trial prosecutors argued that lazarus's actions were driven by jealousy when her former lover ruten chose to marry Rasmussen eventually Superior Court Judge Robert Perry sentenced Lazarus to 25 years to life for first-degree murder and she received an additional two-year sentence for the personal use of a firearm this resolution brought closure to a two-decade old case and Justice was finally served for the Rasmussen family didn't you I I'm gonna say I think she was a nurse um I mean I can't remember how he
