A convicted murderer who fatally shot an off-duty NYPD officer during a robbery in Brooklyn nearly 40 years ago was released on parole earlier this week — the 37th cop killer in the state granted their freedom in just six years.
“To me it makes no sense. [The Parole Board] just seems committed and focused on making everything look good. You’re releasing people that committed heinous crimes,” the 22-year veteran of the NYPD added. Alexander Evans killed 47-year-old Officer James Holmes in 1986. He left behind a wife and four grown children.Burmeister, who was among the responding officers, rushed the dying cop to Brookdale Hospital, where doctors frantically tried to save him.Before he left the room, Burmeister walked up to Holmes and whispered the dead man a promise.
