Snow dirt ball doesn't discribe near to what he is and has gotten away with a lot a  more in Ne than what was printed in the papers.

mauser,
Agreed,best thing I could come up with on this family friendly site.

He kind of resembles Charles Bannon (second from the left) if you remove the long hair and beard/mustache.  For those who are not familiar with the Bannon story, he was on the end of the rope of North Dakota's last "mob lynching" on January 29, 1931.  He murdered a local family near Watford City.  The mob stormed the jail and hung him from a bridge over Cherry Creek.  For the story, see here:

All I can say is that this Bannister goofball should feel fortunate that it is 2011 and not 1911.  Freaking pathetic!  There are some real pukes in this world.  Too bad some of them found their way to North Dakota.

The other cop that shot him should of put his other clip in and gave him the death penalty.What a loser low life FPOS.

SHEDZ,
You said it best FPOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wish we had the death penalty for this guy. And if there was a job opening for that position, I would be first in line. The sad thing is with our economy, its only the beginning...

I told my wife the same thing.  Guess that's why I could never be a cop.  I wouldn't have quit firing until he quit wiggling.  Why should it be any other way when he just unjustifiably shot someone?  Do we or don't we have the right to defend ourselves and others against such things, even to the point of taking anothers life?  And then to put the officer that shot him on administrative leave as a matter of department "policy".  I think that is just pathetic.  Maybe I'm being too critical though.

Bannister charged with murder in Bismarck officer’s death

A man who shot and killed a Bismarck police officer has been charged with murder.

Steven Bannister, 52, was charged Monday with Class AA felony murder and Class C felony terrorizing, Burleigh County Assistant State’s Attorney Lloyd Suhr said.

Sgt. Steve Kenner, 56, was shot and killed Friday night when he and another officer responded to a domestic disturbance involving a man threatening a woman with a knife at the mobile home court at 2500 E. Broadway Ave.

When the two officers arrived at the home, they found Bannister in a white van. Bannister fired a gun, hitting Kenner. The other officer, who has not been identified, returned fire and hit Bannister. Kenner and Bannister were taken to local hospitals, and Kenner was pronounced dead.

Bannister continues to be guarded by police officers at St. Alexius Medical Center, Bismarck Police Lt. Mike Wardzinski said. Suhr said he has not been updated on Bannister’s medical condition, and Bannister will not make a court appearance until he is released from the hospital and booked into the Burleigh County Detention Center.

The officer who shot Bannister is on administrative leave, per department policy, while an investigation is conducted.

Kenner had been with the Bismarck Police Department for 32 years. He is the first officer in the department to be killed in the line of duty. Funeral arrangements are pending. Flags in Bismarck will fly at half-staff until Kenner’s funeral.

Bannister does not have an extensive criminal history in North Dakota, police have said. He was convicted in 2006 of Class C felony terrorizing, which was deemed an A misdemeanor at sentencing, and Class A misdemeanor charges of carrying a concealed weapon and having a firearm at a bar or gaming site. South Central District Judge Gail Hagerty sentenced him to one year suspended on the three convictions, and Bannister paid $550 in court fees and fines. He completed probation for the offenses in 2008.

Since that conviction, he has had several traffic citations and no other criminal convictions. He was charged in Bismarck Municipal Court in April with actual physical control, which is what people are charged with when they are in control of a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs but are not necessarily driving the vehicle at that time. He was acquitted of the charge in June. He had an address of Fairfield, Neb., listed in that case. Police said he has had Bismarck addresses in the past, and law enforcement in Mercer County have said he lived there recently.

According to an Associated Press article that ran in the Lincoln Journal Star, Bannister was convicted of assault in Clay County, Neb., in 2002 and was sentenced to a year of probation. Court records show Bannister used a Fairfield address as recently as 2003, the article said.

 

 

Looks like a real evil mother.  I wonder if he was into Satan worship.

When I saw his picture on the article, the first thing that popped into my head was how far on the opposite ends of the useful people spectrum this weirdo and Sgt. Kenner would be!  It's a shame that the wrong end of the spectrum lived and the right end passed away.

Thoughts and prayers for the officers family and friends!

Opie

What about the woman that took this scumbag into her house?   She must be a real piece of work too.  It was her call for help that started the whole thing.

Yeah, crime in Dickinson is up about 200% and it isnt the home grown farm and ranch community making court appearances.
