Update:<\/em> this just in – Authorities offer $1 million reward<\/strong> for information leading to arrest of ex-LAPD officer Christopher Dorner<\/p>\n

We were hoping to evade coverage of the latest mass distraction du jour<\/em>, that of the former LAPD officer Chris Dorner who recently went rogue following a three man murder spree and who has vowed to kill again as per his 6,000 word manifesto<\/a>, but the US government had made it impossible following confirmation
that the search for Dorner is now the first official drone-hunt in US history.<\/p>\n

The Express reports<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\n

<\/a>Yesterday, as a task force of 125 officers, some riding Snowcats in the rugged terrain, continued their search, it was revealed that Dorner has become the first human target for remotely-controlled airborne drones on US soil.<\/p>\n

A senior police source said: \u201cThe thermal imaging cameras the drones use may be our only hope of finding him. On the ground, it\u2019s like looking for a needle in a haystack.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asked directly if drones have already been deployed, Riverside Police Chief Sergio Diaz, who is jointly leading the task force, said: \u201cWe are using all the tools at our disposal.\u201d<\/p>\n

The use of drones was later confirmed by Customs and Border Patrol spokesman Ralph DeSio, who revealed agents have been prepared for Dorner to make a dash for the Mexican border since his rampage began.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He said: \u201cThis agency has been at the forefront of domestic use of drones by law enforcement<\/strong>. That\u2019s all I can say at the moment.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

And once Dorner is found by remote-control, it will be again up to drones to secure his “elimination.<\/em>” If for no other reason than to perform a ground test of just how the recently enacted drone-facilitated extermination of US citizens sits with various instances of the US judicial system.<\/p>\n
