Off-duty cop kills baby son, boyfriend before shooting self
By Shimon Prokupecz and Lori Bordonaro, NBCNewYork.com
An off-duty New York City police officer shot to death her 1-year-old son and her boyfriend, who is believed to be the child's father, before taking her own life in a Brooklyn home early Monday, authorities said.
The officer's 19-year-old son managed to escape out a back window and find police; he was not injured.
Police responded to the home on East 56th Street in the Flatbush section after receiving reports of shots fired shortly before 8:30 a.m.
When authorities entered the first-floor apartment, they found the officer's 33-year-old boyfriend dead in the doorway. The bodies of the 43-year-old officer, a 13-year cop with the 108th precinct, and the child were found in the bedroom.
All three victims died of gunshot wounds, authorities said.
The officer's teenage son told police he spoke with his mother when he first woke up Monday morning and everything seemed fine. Then, around 8 a.m., he told police he heard a gunshot -- then more gunshots -- and he saw his mother standing in the apartment with a gun in her hand.
The teenager told police he asked his mother what was happening and she apologized, according to law enforcement sources. Then the officer went into her bedroom and placed the baby on the bed. The 19-year-old son heard another gunshot and jumped out the window to find police.
An NYPD spokesman said the officer had never had any issues with the department.
A neighbor, who identified herself as an aunt, said she could find no reason for the deaths. She said the officer was always smiling and waving to her, and seemed like a happy person.
"It's terrible," Agnes Samuel, 83, said as she choked up. "For people to take a life like that. Oh, Lord!"
The investigation is ongoing.

She even killed killed the baby.
An off-duty cop shot her longtime boyfriend to death in Brooklyn on Monday, just hours before he was scheduled to fly to Guyana. Then, in an act of unimaginable cruelty, Officer Rosette Samuel trained a 9-mm. Glock handgun on the couple’s year-old son and shot him in the chest.
The boyfriend, identified by relatives as 33-year-old Dason Peters, was the first to die. His body was found facedown, covered in blood, in a hallway near the front door.

Dondre Samuel, 19, seen leaving the 63rd precinct yesterday. The son of Officer Rosette Samuel, Dondre was able to escape out a window while his mother killed her boyfriend and younger son as well as herself.
Cops found Samuel, 43, in the bed, dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Her dead baby, Dylan Samuel Peters, was to her immediate left. Her gun — a weapon for use while off duty — was found on her right side.
Police also found a bullet in the baby’s crib.
Samuel, who joined the force in 2000 and was assigned to the 108th Precinct in Queens, wasn’t under extreme work-related stress, sources said.

A female police officer shot and killed her boyfriend and 1-year-old boy in her home in Flatbush, Brooklyn this morning. Her cousin Jeffrey Joseph, cries over the deaths.
“There’s nothing in her record that we could divine would have prevented this tragedy,” said Paul Browne, the NYPD’s top spokesman.
Investigators are trying to determine if her boyfriend’s travel plans may have sparked an argument that ended in the double-murder-suicide.
“There’s no love left in the world when a mother can put the barrel of a gun to her own baby and pull the trigger,” said Sheryl Potter, who lives nearby.

Crime Scene investigators gather evidence at the murder suicide scene.
Samuel’s 19-year-old son, Dondre Samuel, told police he was in the apartment on E. 56th St. at the time. He woke up around 7 a.m. and spoke to his mother. Then he went back to sleep.
He was later awakened by an argument between his mother and her boyfriend. The teen told police his mother appeared to be hiding a gun under her armpit. Peters was standing and nursing a wound to the midsection.
Rosette Samuel told Dondre to go back into his bedroom. At about 8:20 a.m., he said, he climbed out a window and jumped about 5 feet to the backyard. He ran up an alley and met cops at the front of the house.

The cop, 43, and her infant son were found lying on a bed, authorities said.
“He was frantic,” neighbor Anthony Beckford, 18, said of Dondre. “His knees and elbows were scraped, bloodily. He couldn’t really talk. He was running for his life.”
The teen was wearing boxer shorts and a shirt, witnesses said.
Dondre told police his mother had been arguing all night with Peters.
Police sources said Samuel called the 108th Precinct stationhouse to say she was going to be late for her shift that morning.
