I realize I used the “Body Cam Theater” image for the headline here, but there’s no footage of this one yet. Still, it was an officer involved shooting. Anyway, Black Lives Matter and liberals in general would have us believe that the criminal justice system is racist. It unfairly targets blacks. The whole point of the system is to put and keep blacks behind bars. But one black man’s crime rampage on Sunday proves otherwise.
Man wounded in shootout with police in Cleveland after carjacking elderly woman outside church is convicted sex offender
CLEVELAND, Ohio — The man wounded in a shootout with Cleveland and RTA police officers Sunday after carjacking an 83-year-old woman in a church parking lot has a criminal history that includes several sex offenses, according to police and court records.
Clifford Gillespie, 43, was booked into the Cuyahoga County Jail on about 9:30 p.m. after undergoing surgery at MetroHealth. He suffered a gunshot wound to his right arm, left leg and groin, police dispatch records say.
Yes, it’s disappointing this filthy animal wasn’t goodified via a lethal gunshot, but how appropriate that a sex offender is shot in the groin. While the area the term “groin” refers to is kind of large, I hope that shot drilled him straight in the nuts.
Cleveland Police Chief Calvin Williams said four Cleveland police officers and an RTA officer were involved in the shooting. All five were placed on paid leave for at least three days while the Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s Office investigates the shooting.
Officials have not released the names of the five officers involved in the shooting.
Gillespie’s criminal history dates back to 1995, and he had an outstanding warrant for his arrest for failing to register as a sex offender and failing to report to his parole officer. He has not been formally charged in connection with the events that led to Sunday’s shooting.
Here’s what happened that lead resulted in this pervert’s perforation.
83-year-old woman carjacked
The string of events began about 9:15 a.m. Sunday. Police said Gillespie carjacked the 83-year-old woman in the parking lot of the Greater Gospel Temple Aoh on East 83rd Street and Quincy Avenue.
The woman told police she was seated in her car outside the temple when a man in a black ski mask, later identified as Gillespie, knocked on her window.
He pointed a gun at her head and threatened to kill her if she didn’t get out of the car, according to police. He sped off on Woodland Avenue.
The woman was not injured but an ambulance took her to MetroHealth in Cleveland Heights to be checked by a doctor, according to police reports.
The church’s surveillance video captured robbery.
He-man Gillespie carjacked an 83-year-old woman and is such a cowardly punk, he needed a gun to do it. And at a church no less! There’s a special place in hell awaiting this thug, but it gets even worse . . .
Woman threatened at gunpoint at laundromat
Two hours later, Gillespie drove the stolen car to the Fleet Avenue Superwash laundromat on Fleet Avenue and East 63rd Street, according to police. He began masturbating in front of a 27-year-old woman who was inside the business, police said.
I told you this was going to get worse.
The woman told Gillespie she was going to call the police and he threatened to shoot both her and her cousin, according to police reports. He went outside, grabbed his gun from the car and waved it around, according to police.
And again, this literal jerk-off needs a gun when victimizing a woman.
The woman called police from the manager’s office and gave officers the license plate number of the car.
Officers spotted the car as Gillespie pulled out of the laundromat and a chase ensued. Gillespie drove between 38 and 42 mph during the chase, according to police dispatch records.
Now karma starts to catch up with this prick . . .
The car Gillespie drove made odd noises and caught fire. He hopped out of the car and ran from officers through several fields and over RTA Rapid tracks, according to the dispatch records.
Officers spotted Gillespie, who pulled out his gun, pointed it at officers and fired several shots, according to dispatch records.
The officers returned fire, shot Gillespie before they took him into custody, according to police.
But here’s the part that addresses my initial statement, that the criminal justice system isn’t unfairly incarcerating blacks. None of what happened Sunday should have occurred in the first place. This monster should have been behind bars, not free on the streets.
Gillespie has extensive criminal history
Gillespie’s most recent felony conviction happened in March 2018, when a jury found him guilty of physically and sexually abusing a 13-year-old boy, according to Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court records.
In that case, Gillespie regularly slapped, punched, and hit the boy with drum sticks, twigs, extension cords or plastic rods for asking to play outside or using curse words at school, according to court documents. The abuse escalated until December 2014 when the boy asked to play outside after finishing his homework. Gillespie refused to allow him to go outside, then grabbed him by the shirt and raped him, prosecutors and police said.
Gillespie told the boy if he ever told anyone about the rape he’d kill the boy and his family, police said. The boy started sleeping with a knife under his pillow. The boy didn’t report the incident to police until two years later, when the boy was accused of sexually assaulting a younger family member.
Gillespie was charged in the case in 2016 and was convicted at trial two years later. He was sentenced to time served and the Ohio Eighth District Court of Appeals upheld the case in March.
So, this homopedo beat a child continuously for a long period of time, then eventually raped him, and all he gets is “time served.” Two years?!?! Only two friggin’ years for raping a kid for asking to play outside?!? That is just absurd! He should have just been put down. Not to mention he had multiple prior convictions . . .
In 2012, Gillespie was convicted of masturbating in front of two 12-year-old girls walking to school on Lamontier Avenue. He was sentenced to 17 months in prison in that case.
He was sentenced to three years in prison in 2009 after he broke into a woman’s home through a child’s bedroom window, punched a woman in the face several times and slammed her into a wall. He pulled out a knife and bullet and threatened to kill the woman before ransacking the house and running from the home.
Threatened her with a bullet. What happened? Did this dumbass forget you need a gun for a bullet to be scary? It wouldn’t surprise me.
In 2005, he was sentenced to two years in prison for two separate cases for shooting into an East Cleveland home with two young children inside and attacking a woman inside a Cleveland Heights home.
He has also been convicted of drug trafficking, escape, failing to register as a sex offender, drug possess and vandalism.
Look at how easy the justice system has made it for this thing to keep victimizing innocent people. I’d say they’ve been more than lenient. So much for blacks being persecuted. Considering the multiple charges he will now face, all the carnage he’s caused in the past, and his age, hopefully this human turd will die in prison.
I’ll be on the look out for the body cam footage. I can’t wait to see it.
