[sds71]

A man who opened fire on Stamford police during an hours-long standoff last week was wearing a military uniform shirt with a Nazi insignia on it, according to the Office of the Inspector General.

The incident on Dec. 2 began when a state marshal arrived at the home on Oaklawn Avenue to evict 63-year-old Jed Parkington and his wife following a foreclosure.

The marshal was met by Parkington's wife and her dog in the driveway and then walked to the back entrance of the house.

Parkington came to the door wearing the uniform shirt and had a utility belt with items attached that the marshal believed could include explosive devices, according to the inspector general's preliminary report

Parkington pushed his wife back outside and said “take her someplace safe, this is not going to end well,” according to the report…


"While checking the home for explosives, a second body was discovered on the second floor," Shaw told reporters. "The body was concealed and appeared to be in a decomposed state. The Stamford Police Department Major Crimes Unit will oversee the investigation of the second body discovered."

Strange. For starters, how do people live in a house with a decomposing body? The stench, maggots and flies have to be hard to take. Then how does the wife get around with explosives everywhere?

investigators know very little about the victim, including the person's age or gender, because the house was filled with pipe bombs, grenades and a Molotov cocktail explosive.

The deadly standoff began when a state marshal arrived to evict Jed Parkington and his wife from 263 Oaklawn Ave., where the couple had lived since 2005.

From your link the deceased body had been handcuffed and they were still on the body.
LE also found a note written, on a door (?) that read 10/31/25 is your last day.

Like someone up thread stated how could you live through the smell of a decomposing body for over a month?!
