Corrections officer who fired at police officers found guilty
SALEM, Ore. (AP) - A man who worked as an Oregon Department of Corrections officer was found guilty Wednesday in Salem of shooting at two police officers.
Michael Wilson Yann was taken into custody in Marion County Circuit Court.
The Statesman Journal reports the 40-year-old Turner man will be sentenced Dec. 11 for attempted aggravated murder and unlawful use of a firearm.
Yann had been drinking April 14 when the two officers responded to a report he was staggering down a road.
Police say he ran inside his house and fired several shots at the officers. He surrendered after a four-hour standoff.

Looks like a really nice guy.
Another opportunity to cleanse the Gene Pool lost.
He should thank his stars that he's ALIVE to be imprisoned. The alternative is not so good.....
If he shot an unarmed civilian in the back he'd be labeled a "HERO" instead of a felon.....

...this would be a very quiet forum.
 @August100 No, he wouldn't. He would get the same treatment as this, as he was drunk and a jerk for continuing a stand-off.
