Wait. What? This ex-cop killed six people while on the job, forced the city of Scottsdale to pay out millions in settlements to families of the victims, and yet he somehow managed to never spend a single day in jail.

He’s now working for a company that produces cop simulators.

Down and Drought has learned that VirTra Systems, Inc., a Tempe company that produces a shooting simulator used for law enforcement and military training, employs former Scottsdale police officer James Peters who resigned from the department amid controversy in 2012 following revelations that he had tallied six fatal shootings during his twelve year career [emphasis added].

James Peters was cleared in his final fatal shooting, that of John Loxas, an unarmed man carrying his grandchild when Peters shot and killed him. The incident ignited anti-police protests and debate around this officer who had killed so many, and resulted in the city paying out a $4.25 million dollar settlement to the Loxas family. In the summer of 2012, Peters took an early retirement from the city, and effectively dropped out of sight. But while he was no longer a police officer he continued to work alongside law enforcement in the private sector.

This ex-cop should have been subjected to scrutiny after the first killing, or the second or third, but somehow managed to remain on active duty up through the sixth killing.

The kicker? This guy is collecting a disability pension from the city.
