Cop-Killer Gets Life in Prison

The man who fatally shot Police Officer Dillon Stewart during a car chase in 2005 was sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole Nov. 8.

Allan Cameron, 29, who was convicted last month of first-degree murder, denied being responsible for the killing. Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Albert Tomei noted that lack of remorse in his sentencing. "When it comes to humanity, how we treat each other, we are still in the Dark Ages," the judge said.

Officer Stewart was fatally shot Nov. 28, 2005 as he tried to pull over Mr. Cameron's car for running a red light in the Flatbush section of Brooklyn. He did not initially realize that he had been hit under the armpit, and followed the suspect's fleeing car into a parking garage several blocks away.

Mr. Cameron, who was on parole and had been wanted for assaulting officers in Philadelphia and New York, was apprehended a few hours later at his girlfriend's apartment.
