U.S. Rep Jasmine Crockett Security Officer Shot and Killed by SWAT During Standoff

A man who went by the name Mike King was the lead security officer for Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett. However, Mike King was an alias, and his real name was Diamon-Mazairre Robinson; a convicted felon with a lengthy criminal background.

According to police, King was wanted for impersonating a law enforcement officer. He reportedly fled into a hospital parking garage and barricaded himself inside a vehicle. King was then forced out of the car with tear gas and pulled his gun on officers.

“Multiple law enforcement sources tell CBS News Texas the man, known publicly as Mike King, had been using aliases while running a business that placed officers in off‑duty jobs,” CBS reported. King reportedly drove a replica undercover police vehicle and used stolen license plates from cars at a military recruiting office.

(VIA CBS) – […] CBS News Texas has been researching Robinson’s criminal history, which includes seven arrests for theft in Dallas, Duncanville, Irving, Dallas County and by the Texas Department of Public Safety. 

All of the arrests were between 2009 and 2012, as many as six of them at the felony level. 

It appears his sentences for those convictions, which he pleaded guilty to all, led only to fines no more than $2,500 and sentences of probation from 1 to 5 years, and in one case, 10 years. 

Despite that criminal background, sources said Robinson was able to forge a new identity as Mike King, where he not only became a prominent figure as a security officer for Rep. Crockett while in office and during her recent U.S. Senate campaign, sources said the convicted felon was also able to run a business placing North Texas law enforcement officers in off duty jobs through his business called Off Duty Police Services.  (read more)
