- On Friday, March 15th, 2024, Jeremy Alexander Smith, 33, of Marion, South Carolina, was driving a white BMW registered out of South Carolina. Smith then allegedly experienced at least one flat tire on I-40 west of Tucumcari. It was reported that during the early morning hours, in the darkness, he attempted to signal passing motorists for assistance.
After receiving a request for a welfare check on the BMW, Officer Justin Hare of the New Mexico State Police (NMSP), responded to the call for help. Officer Hare had been in service with the NMSP since 2018, and routinely responded to the scene.
Smith approached Officer’s patrol car on the passenger side. Officer Hare then allegedly extended an offer to provide Smith with a ride into town. According to NMSP Chief Troy Weisler that is when unexpectedly, Smith produced a firearm and shot Officer Hare. Afterward, Smith walked around to the driver’s side of the patrol care and shot Officer Hare again. Smith then shoved Officer Hare to the passenger seat of his own police SUV. Smith now fled the area in the NMSP patrol SUV down the road.
Smith crashed the patrol car less than 15 miles down the road. Smith subsequently abandoned it, and he was later found to have fled on foot.
Officer Hare's body was discovered on a frontage road near milepost 312 and was rushed to Dan C. Trigg Memorial Hospital in Tucumcari, where he passed away at around 7:20 a.m.
Officer Hare is survived by his father, mother, girlfriend, and two young children.
The white BMW found at the scene belongs to Phonesia Machado-Fore. She was last seen on Tuesday but was reported missing on Thursday in Marion County, South Carolina, by her daughter. Her body was discovered around 6:15 p.m. on Friday.
NMSP contacted the Marion County Sheriff's Office on Friday. NMSP officials informed them that Machado-Fore's white BMW was now involved in Officer Justin Hare's murder.
Marion County Sheriff Brian Wallace stated, "Mrs. Fore was one of us, a fellow first responder,". Sheriff Wallace expressed the community's loss and their determination to seek justice for her death.
Before the incident involving Officer Hare, Smith reportedly had no significant criminal record in New Mexico. It has been discovered that he did however have a lengthy record in South Carolina. We uncovered that in 2014, Smith escaped from jail and remained at large for nearly three hours before being apprehended. He was also allegedly charged in South Carolina for firing at or from a moving vehicle.
At approximately 8:20 AM on Sunday, March 17, 2024, ABQ RAW was the first media outlet to break the news to you that Jaremy Smith was in custody. Smith, the suspect responsible for the killing of NMSP Officer Justin Hare and a 'person of interest' in the killing of South Carolina paramedic Phonesia Machado-Fore, was now in police custody.
According to unnamed sources, Smith had been shot by Bernalillo County deputies after a gas station attendant identified him and called the police. When BCSO deputies arrived, they located Smith walking on foot on Unser Blvd SW, a foot pursuit ensued, and Smith was purportedly shot at least twice.
We heard NMSP say they were following the ambulance to UNMH. When the suspect was at the hospital, we heard dispatch report back that at least 4-5 officers were watching and guarding the suspect closely.
There was a heavy police presence near Anderson Hill and Unser SW. As a result of the shooting and subsequent investigation a Multi-Agency Task Force has been initiated an investigation into the deputy-involved shooting. BCSO also stated that no deputies were hurt during the shooting.
At 9:30 AM, the New Mexico State Police confirmed our initial report. Police officials said that Jaremy Smith was taken into custody after a foot pursuit. Officials also said they were involved in a deputy-involved shooting with the Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office.
At around 11:30 AM, both BCSO and the NMSP held a joint press conference, which you can watch here:
• Cop Killer in Custody ...
During the press conference Sheriff Allen said, "during this time as they had an eye on Mr. Smith, a foot pursuit ensued." Sheriff Allen went on to say, "Shots were fired. Some shots strike Smith, we don't know the amount right now or how many, that's still under investigation. But Smith was then taken into custody without further incident."
NMSP Chief Troy Weisler said "we said we would bring Jaremy Smith to justice. There was nowhere he could run, there was nowhere he could hide." Chief Weisler also extended thanks to the community and fellow law enforcement partners for their efforts in locating and apprehending Smith.
I was hoping a trial wouldn’t be necessary.
NEVER FORGET UVALDE 🙏
@@angelcelis9090Remember the Alamo🐎
@@angelcelis9090What does that have to do with this? Shut up.
@@rodzilla134 cops being cops
@@angelcelis9090 You're like a literary genius. The Uvalde cops were cowards. That's not relevant here, so explain your point.
How did cop killer get from Tucumcari to Albuquerque? That is one sharp and quick thinking store clerk at Murphys! Thank you.
My thoughts as well. Was someone helping him?
NEVER FORGET UVALDE🙏
@@angelcelis9090Remember the Alamo 🐎
Prayers for all the families involved
@@R-BURQUENO I renmember the Alamo. A bunch of cowards ran out the back door, but they teach kids in Texas schools a complete and total lie about those events. Ask Deadbeat Debbie Cooper about the Alamo. She''ll repeat the lie she was taught.
Glad we didn't have to suffer through another Medina press brief. State and Sherrif leadership is top notch. Good work men and women!!! Appreciate cha. RIP. TO THE FALLEN. HEARTS AND PRAYERS FOR THE FAMILY😔
Another mouth to feed and shelter guard for 30 to 40 years
Maybe he can share a cell with the DUI con men or the perverts from America's sorriest Police Department?
It’s about time, how did he get this far? Someone helped him. They need to get locked up for that!
NEVER FORGET UVALDE 🙏
@@angelcelis9090Remember the Alamo🐎
Not necessarily. He probably stole a car. After all that's what he was initially found in.
Yeah but where did he stay?in the car parked in the dirt behind Murphy's?he was walking and had been to that particular store 2x🤷, he was staying at someone's house near the Murphy's to be able to go on foot.somebody helped him!
@@jenniferornelas4151 who knows? He definitely didn’t walk to Albuquerque!
Proud of the NM LEOs! Their dedication will bring this horrible tragedy to and end.
You do realize it was a store clerk that found the killer, right? It was not the cops. Once again, the public had to do the job for law enforcement in NM.
@@bradhuff256 what a bullshit response. Yes, a clerk saw the guy and called the cops. They responded, exchanged gunfire and took the dude into custody. Did the clerk do that? Shoutout to the clerk for being alert and helping the community but a bigger shoutout to the LEOs who took the guy down. You're a stain.
@@bradhuff256 That's a bullshizt respose. Sure, shoutout to the clerk for calling it in, but, did the clerk track down the filthy criminal? Put themselves in harms way? Exchange gunfire? Take the worthless stain into custody? Stop being the reason NM is America's 3WSH.
@@jerrylittle7797 Here is a fun, yet inconvenient fact for you. The store clerk faces a greater statistical probability of being injured or killed on the job than ANY of the cops that she informed about the location of the killer. That is a cold hard fact. You may be a coward and insecure, but the clerk was not.
I don't live in NM bro. We have competent cops where I live.
@@bradhuff256 You need to look up the definition of "inconvenient". Because it's not inconvenient for me at all. The clerk did her civic duty to inform the police and they handled it appropriately. Well, almost, the worthless stain lived. You can keep trying to make this about me but the reality is it isn't, so try harder. And, since you don't live in NM, STFU and sit down bro...
Glad they caught him, but SAD that he lived. Who will let him out of prison next?
His violent behavior has been going on for decades, but yet he keeps getting released!
Never release under any circumstances 😮
Moral of the story dont help stranded strangers.
Nah, moral of the story is be professional. Cops in NM don't really have that skill, or any training to be so.
You have the best coverage of this story compared to other news stations
Rip officer
Live in Westside,crazy to think this cop killer was only a few blocks away, I truly hope they procicute the people who helped him!
Congratulations apd 💯
Life sentence I would say definitely
No parole....yess 😢 my heart goes to his wife and family great job to ABQ community as well
Glad they caught the crazy.
He'd died from lead poisoning here in almost every FL county. Especially Polk and Santa Rosa.
Relief
Primate to Inmate.
Wtf...I guess they need more fire arms training....
Where is A P D?
Harassing law abiding citizens
Good question. This was within city limits.
It’s outside their jurisdiction, well outside. This event occurred near Tucumcari, hours away from ABQ
It’s BCSO’ jurisdiction
@johnduran769 It's in city limits. SW area command. Go on Google Earth and look at the perimeter in Albuquerque, then look at the address and the cross streets here. Inside city limits. I live in the next neighborhood over. APD always respond true crime around here. Rarely does BCSO respond.
The State Police Chief has a beautiful leather jacket
The usual suspect
NEVER FORGET UVALDE 🙏
Who’s messing with comments? Mag dump is now a bad word?WTF, 505 Vida
NEVER FORGET UVALDE 🙏
Mag dump is a cowardly term you use often. You do that because you are a coward and a punk. Moist cop apologists are punks. All are cowards.
@@R-BURQUENO The Alamo is the biggest lie ever perpetrated on school kids. Poor kids in Texas are taught there were heroes at the Alamo, when in fact it was a boatload of cowards that bran out the back door. Is that the story you meant to imply? LMAO!!!!! No wonder Deadbeat Debbie suffers so many insecurities.
@@R-BURQUENO or UVALDE🙏 rip those kids and may god forgive any of those making jokes about those innocent kids.
RUclips loves criminals.
That man is currently being tortured..
NEVER FORGET UVALDE 🙏
No he not ?
@@R-BURQUENO The Alamo is that thing where a bunch of cowards ran out the back door, yeah?
@@R-BURQUENO never forget uvalde and May god forgives those making jokes about those innocent kids and that tragedy that happened cause of the uvalde pd.
@@bradhuff256 something like that
Same thing last month in Las Cruces. Officer Hernandez walked Right Into Killers knife? Better training please. Academy only tells them to be Polite Greeters. Then this.
Better training? LMAO, how about common sense? Academy teaches them to be afraid. Period.
@@bradhuff256 My God. We are sorry your wife left you for a cop. It happens. However, they are not taught to be afraid in the academy. That comes after, when DAs funded by Soros go after them for daring to do their jobs. When cowards like you do nothing but criticize. When the legislature and governor do everything they can to make their lives harder. When judges take the criminals' sides and let them out, again and again. Look at this a-hole's criminal record. He should have been locked up, but someone gave him, yet another chance and he killed at least 2 more people. You clowns want the cops to solve all your problems, yet all you do is bitch and complain every time they try. If you think they're not tired of it, you're wrong. They're wrong if they arrest. They're wrong if they don't arrest. They're wrong if they shoot. Wrong if they don't shoot. They're sick of it. Ask one, next time you see them working. I have to wonder, what have you ever done to serve your community? Being a keyboard warrior does not make you a hero.
FYT
Wow, he took out two and gets taken alive, that's BS!
Rip officer buttchin
Why did not a single law enforcement official thank the brave citizen for doing the job the police had failed to do for days? Also, why was NMSP searching an area hundreds of miles form where the suspect was actually located? Mr Channel Operator ser, do you have any sort of smug and smartass excuse?
Does officer sounds like he has a speech impediment or something
