The Dallas Police Department has released bodycam footage from the March 11 standoff between a Dallas SWAT Team and fugitive "Mike King" aka Diamon Maziarre Robinson. As RedState reported, Robinson was a longtime security officer and coordinator for Texas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett (D-30). Robinson was shot and killed by SWAT officers when he brandished a firearm during the standoff. According to reports, police were attempting to arrest Robinson on an active warrant for impersonating a federal agent, mounting a fake business, and using fraudulent credentials to contract with legitimate police officers for off-duty jobs.
The investigation into the shooting has revealed more details surrounding Robinson's criminal history and the circumstances that led up to Robinson's death. The video footage shows multiple angles of SWAT's attempts to apprehend Robinson.

The suspect in this case has been identified as Diamon Robinson. But Crockett and many local law enforcement officers knew him as Mike King.
Police said he was using a fake name to run a bogus security company. That company, Off Duty Police Services, secured contracts and often hired real Dallas police officers.
But the ruse began to unravel for Robinson in late February after the Irving Police Department released information about a black SUV with a stolen federal government license plate. A Dallas police officer remembered seeing that vehicle while working an off-duty job.
Arrogance? Possibly. Most criminal fraudsters make it a point to avoid the very presence of law enforcement. Robinson decided to make a cottage industry out of hiring them for security work. Fox 4 unearthed the court records on Robinson dating as far back as 2009. The man has a rap sheet longer than Kamala Harris' word salads.
According to court records, Robinson had a criminal history that included multiple arrests for theft, a probation violation, and tampering with a government record.
He had an active warrant for theft of checks at a hotel where he worked security in the past. He was also wanted for impersonating a police officer.
Police said he was not any type of federal law enforcement officer.
"So the agencies that he reported to work for do not exist. Special Dignitary Police, that agency does not exist in the federal government. That’s who he portrayed to be, who his IDs that he had put together showed him to be, but those agencies does not exist," said Dallas Police Deputy Chief William Griffith.
But wait... there's more.
Robinson was driving a replica undercover car with stolen U.S. government plates, often wore fake police uniforms pretending he was a federal agent and created a fraudulent business where he used fake identifying information to hire legitimate police officers for off-duty jobs. Dallas Police also said 11 firearms were recovered during their investigation, including the handgun he was holding during the shooting, which was reported stolen.
This goes beyond poor vetting. There is no indication that Crockett's team bothered to do any vetting at all.
After a week of non-response, Jasmine Crockett issued the following statement. She did not respond to the obvious question: How does this amount of fraudulence get so close to a sitting congressional member? Totally on brand, she blamed the system, and of course, Trump.
It read, in part:
We are saddened and shocked by some of the concerning revelations. Our team followed all protocols outlined by the House to contract additional security. We were approved to use this vendor who also provided security services for additional entities in the local community and worked closely with law enforcement agencies including Capitol Police.
The fact that an individual was able to somehow circumvent the vetting processes for something as sensitive as security for members of Congress highlights the loopholes and shortcomings in many of our systems. This is incredibly alarming, especially for those members who receive high volumes of credible and sophisticated death threats. This situation reiterates the need for Capitol Police to provide security for members of Congress, especially under this administration's new normal of inciting attacks on those who dare to speak out. We are fortunate that this is someone who used those loopholes without malice. Furthermore, after an initial review of the limited criminal history of Diamon Maziarre Robinson in Dallas County we've been unable to locate any violent offenses.
"Limited criminal history?" Spoken like a true Soros-backed attorney.
As a former public defender, I’ve always believed people are more than the worst thing they’ve ever done. I believe in redemption. The man we knew showed up with respect, care, and commitment to protecting others.

We’re still learning the full story, but today we mourn a life lost. This is a tragic ending that we wish had been avoided for all.
The investigation will no doubt uncover much more about Diamon Maziarre Robinson, as well as how much Crockett really knew about his criminal background. If nothing else, it shows a stunning lack of judgment or accountability. Crockett will finish out her congressional term, and her Senate hopes died in the Texas primary earlier in March. With this potential malfeasance brewing, the people of Texas are fortunate Crockett will no longer hold elected office.
