EX-COP CAGED FOR KILLING DAUGHTER’S BOYFRIEND!
KILLER Oklahoma cop Shannon Kepler got socked with 25 years in federal prison after his fifth trial for the ambush murder of his estranged daughter’s teenage boyfriend!
The Tulsa terror,
61, ditched his adopted kid, Lisa, at a homeless shelter with no money or extra clothing in 2014, shortly after she turned 18. But that week, the deranged dad spied on her Facebook page and learned she was dating Jeremey Lake.
The control freak ran a records check on the 19-year-old and discovered he was previously charged as a juvenile for pushing a social services worker — but not convicted.
Authorities say Kepler, who was on the force for 24 years, then tailed the lovebirds after dark, pumped two bullets into Jeremey and fired his .357 Magnum three more times in the direction of Lisa and other witnesses!
The goon later claimed he thought Jeremey was packing heat, but investigators say no weapon was found at the scene.
Kepler was clobbered with the hefty sentence for using a firearm in the commission of second-degree murder after his first three trials in state court ended with hung juries. A fourth trial led to a guilty verdict for manslaughter and a 15-year prison term — but his conviction was later overturned.
In addition to sending the ex-cop to the clink, the federal judge also ordered Kepler to cough up cash for Jeremey’s gravestone.
