Columbus Cop Confronts Monster Who Murdered His Teen Daughter, Monster Tells Cop To Kill Him, Cop Happily Obliged

Body camera footage was released Thursday of a Columbus police SWAT officer shooting a Toledo man who was wanted in connection with the brutal slaying of his teen daughter in that city.

Columbus police had been surveilling 33-year-old Darnell Jones — who also uses the last name Ogletree — after Toledo Police Department notified them that he was wanted for the abduction and murder of his 13-year-old daughter, Keimani Latigue.

Latigue's body was found on Monday with several cuts to her neck at an abandoned house in Toledo, The Dispatch previously reported. Toledo police learned through their investigation that Jones was the last person that Latigue was with before she went missing from her home, and that he previously lived in Columbus.

Columbus police body camera footage shows the SWAT officer exiting his unmarked vehicle at the intersections of 2nd and Denison avenues in the Victorian Village neighborhood as an unsuspecting Jones walks on the sidewalk with his left hand holding what was later determined to be a walkie-talkie and his right hand in the pouch pocket of his hooded sweatshirt. The officer tells Jones to "come here, man."

Jones tells the officer, who has his gun out, "don't do it."

The officer confronts Jones, pulls out his gun and orders Jones to show his hands. At that point, the video shows Jones telling the officer, "just kill me."

The officer, using profanity, repeatedly tells Jones to show his hands, but Jones refuses and continues to tell the officer to shoot him.
