Let the sob rot in jail, His ASS should of been put to death a long time ago, how much of our tax paying dollars did it take to keep him alive with 3 squares a day and a warm safe bed to sleep in while his family suffered the loss for all these years, If I had my way I'd take him out in an onion field and Shoot that ***** ******** the same way he killed Ian!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To Whom It May Concern:


This reflection is in support of Officer Ian Campbell and his family. My heart goes out to the surviving family and I hope that one day your family will find peace. I can't imagine the pain you have gone through and continue to go through every time there is an additional hearing related to Officer Campbell's case. Take care and may Officer Campbell rest in peace.

I have to say that, I am blown away that someone who took a life, is wanting and asking for some sort of compassion. WHY? He did not have any compassion when he took the life of this man, who was a father, a son, a friend, and a grandfather. He took to the oath to protect people like this guy who is wanting compassion off the streets, and, he wants to roam the streets again.. I beg of you people to not allow this to happen..

May we Never forget LAPD Officer's Ian J. Campbell and Karl Hettinger. The remaining convicted Killer, Gregory Ulas Powell Should NOT be granted any mercy OR Parole, period. We as citizens should speak out when such killers come up for parole. This was a Terrible Crime against those who are sworn to protect and who serve. We as tax payers deserve the right to see vicious killers such as Powell die without mercy. Life imprisonment was too good for Powell and his fellow killer, Jimmy Lee Smith! May God Bless the families of Officer Ian Campbell and Karl Hettinger-(Who suffered so many years). Let us Never forget what they gave to Protect and to serve. Mr. Powell should be Not be released. May God have mercy on his Soul. I know God is with Officer's Campbell and Karl Hettinger. May they live in our hearts and Always be remembered. Let us Never forget..!

We will not let this hearing go by without family there. Over the past 30 years, your voice has been represented at any hearing in which Powell has been considered for release. Once again, I will be attendance in Sacramento on Oct 18, 2011 to be another voice against this travesty. Powell needs to die in prison where he should have died 48 years ago.

I am thinking of you always, but mostly tonight. I read this article and I instantly wanted (and still) to cry. This man ended your life and took you away from us, your family. It is appalling to me that he may be walking free soon. I am wishing that justice is upheld.

Much love!

I remember reading about the murder in the LATimes . Later (1985) I read that gregory Powell was up for a parole hearing. I sent a letter to the Board Of Prisons asking that the parole not be granted. I will write every time I hear of a parole hearing for Powell. I am 78 years old and sorry to say that Powell is of my generation. God Bless our Police men.

I was not even 1 yr old when you were killed. Yet, as I approach my 29th year in law enforcement, each time I make a night time vehicle stop I reflect on the story of "the onion field".

I have trained many new officers and the story of the nights events that led to you and Officer hettingers ordeal is mandatory learning for my trainees.

The biggest tribute to your memory is knowing that, even after death, you are still riding in that black & white, giving guidance to new young officers. Thank you and wear your badge with pride.

We were four; you (Scotty), Gene (The Beast) Goldberg,
Dave (the Thin Man) Townsend and myself (Yogi). Just Dave and I are left. We honor your life and service, yet mourn your death. Also, in our hearts is your mother, Chrissie.
She was a great lady. When we took a week-end in L.A., she
did our laundry for us. She would sew little reg crosses in my
scivvies.....to ward off evil. God Bless Her !

When Joe Wambaugh was writing "The Onion Field" he called
me. I sent him some anecdotal material, which he used in the book, and also snapshops of us four, while in Hawaii and in California.

Thinking of you and your loved ones on the 48th anniversary of your end of watch on earth. I apologize for being a couple of days late as I was not feeling well. You have touched many lives and as always this country can never thank you enough for your service and sacrifice. Rest well in the arms of our loving God.

THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD

The Lord is my shepherd,
I shall not want;
He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters;
He restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness
for His name's sake.

Even though I walk through the valley
of the shadow of death,
I fear no evil;
for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days of my life;
and I shall dwell in the house of the
Lord forever.

Officer Campbell,
I recently read "The Onion Field"...and, was blown away. To be so young, and gave your life in the line of duty is to be respected and commended. My heart goes out to your family...I'm still numb and aghast that the reason the criminal did it was so incredibly selfish. Your family are in my thoughts and prayers....God bless and keep you and your family, Officer Campbell....

Your spirit has been on my mind a lot lately. I know that you're resting peacefully looking over us. You were taken from all of us way too soon and have missed out on meeting so many wonderful people that have come into our family since you left. I know that you're watching from above though and are proud of all that your family has created and accomplished.

I love you.

Officer Ian Campbell will always be remembered as one who gave his life in dedication to public safety. I hope that he did not suffer too much in his last hours of life. Another example of the senselessness of murder and the pain it causes those left behind.

Like a story that had just begun,
But death tore the pages all away,
I wonder who you would have been today"
