Steven Gamvroulas, an agent in the Utah Attorney General's Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, said he'd received about 700 pieces of child pornography by e-mail from Hill specifically.
As an undercover agent, Gamvroulas joined a network that shared such images, and said he was just one member of many receiving the e-mails. Hill was not suspected of producing the pornography, Gamvroulas said.
Agents told Rebecca Hill they had a search warrant, but wouldn't say what they were looking for, and pushed past her into the house. When they realized her husband was home, they went upstairs to the bedroom. Rebecca Hill heard voices, but not any shots.
Point number one : I'm 17 years old, I can use whatever speaking terms I feel the need to use, ignorant or not.
Point number two : You calling them [FBI] names is as bad as me saying things from a "violent mindset" point of view.
Point number three : Maybe I will go work for them, then I can watch as they shoot more of my family members instead of hearing about it on the internet.

I don't mean any disrespect but why are you implying that this is related to anything other than what the official story is? Sure, he may not have seemed suicidal, but faced with the realization that he was going to spend a long time behind bars perhaps he took it upon himself to take the quicker way out. People in prison for child related offenses, whether virtual images or physical abuse, aren't taken upon too kindly in prison.
So did he actually have child pornography on his computer? Did he own a gun? Is the case still on-going? It seems like a pretty serious incident especially with the special task forces investigating it and I'd be careful posting about it on the Internet.
If you are suggesting that he was 'silenced' because of something he did while in the military or because of knowledge he had, which I'm assuming you are hence why you mention he was an ATS member (which hasn't been proven), why would feds kill him in his own home with a warrant? Why wouldn't they kidnap him while he's going to / coming home from work and take him out quietly?

IMHO, the reason for his murder probably has to do with the gun smuggling carried out by the govt after the first Iraq war. If you look into the Waco massacre there is a tie there into possible distribution of unregistered guns to street gangs as some planned federal program for gun confiscation of the public by the street gangs. He probably knew too much.

It won't help demonstrate whether he was actually assassinated (against all logic), or simply a child pornographer caught out and shot while attempting to commit suicide in front of armed FBI agents.

Also, according to Alyssa, the story she was told is that Darius barricaded himself in the room when the FBI came, when they gained entrance, he swung a gun around, then went to shoot himself- and yes, in all scenarios, waving a gun at a cop or fed agent will get you shot.
How would Alyssa know??? She wasn't there.
Apparently Alyssa states that they shot him in the chest, then he shot himself in the neck/jaw area. Not that he shot himself on purpose, mind you. It could be possible being shot in the chest may make someone reflexively flail, and with a loaded gun, it's very possible he shot himself accidently, but anyway-- when gunfire came from Darius, the FBI returned fire. 4 shots hit him, and the chest and neck/jaw shot were the fatal ones.
Again, how would Alyssa know??? The "official story" was that he died of a single gun shot wound to the head.
It is very possible that a daughter who feels abandoned by her dad might be pissed, and willing to vilify him- I cannot know for sure. But that's her story, and to be completely honest- it rings true for me.
So, it rings true for you that someone who is already disgruntled and has a grudge held against her father is willing to accept an official story that first stated that her father was only shot once??? And you see no conspiracy in this??? First and foremost...This comes from a guy (me) who has dated so many women that I cannot count. (I am not attempting to brag, I am making a point) I HAVE NEVER DATED A WOMAN THAT DIDN'T HAVE DADDY ISSUES. Somewhere down the line, all girls want to rebel against their father for a multitude of reasons, and its rare to date a girl that doesn't have something negative to say about their patriarch.
i think he knew he was cornered, and waved a gun around in a room full of feds, and died because of it. I agree with posters stating that if the FBI wanted him dead, they would never be connected to it. There would be no need for them to investigate or confess what happened at all.
Sure, but explain how he shot himself in the mouth and then had 6 more bullets pumped into him after the fact???
It's a tragic story, but not a conspiratorial one.
Oh...I highly disagree with your last assessment. Let's see. There's a child porn ring in which the feds didn't arrest this man after he had supposedly sent an email with over 700 child porn images to the director. Then he had a history of dealing illegal arms while being a sergeant in the marine corps. After of which, he was murdered and the "official story" claimed that he simply died of a single gun shot wound even though there were multiple. Either the coroner was simply a complete idiot, or the feds were lying through their teeth. I think that you may be turning a blind eye to a situation that either has you perplexed, or simply too dumbfounded to critically think about the details. And, that last sentence WAS NOT an insult at all. I am not calling you ignorant, stupid, or anything else. I think you need to look at the details just a little more before making an assessment.

You are a liar OP
proof: you barely know the guy, but yet he talks about shaven beavers with you and tells you how the military screwed him over? It's funny, his. Co-workers never had any inkling that he had past militry problems, especially dishonorable discharge. But, you, you are privy to all of this? It doesn't add up.
And lastly, you are more concerned about people calling you a liar than you are about helping out the dead stepfather of a chick you and your homeboy used to hump. You fail.
Just because some idiots on a message board think I'm lying really means nothing to me

If I may play Devil's Advocate for 1 moment here. I have a couple of things I wanna know......
1. O.P. - Not to be rude, and no disrespect intended, but why is it so important that you find out IF/WHO this bloke was on here???? Why is it so urgent that you find out who he was on here????
2. Does anyone here know for a FACT that this guy wasn't into Child Pornography???? There are plenty of cases out there where the most normal people are found to be paedophiles. Look what happened in Germany (I think it was Germany), where the father was found to have been molesting his OWN DAUGHTER for 20 odd years, and he had had several children with her. Even his OWN wife claimed not to have known about it.

You also stated that this may be related to ET's??? Could you give me a reason why this may be a possibility??? Did he speak to you about any sensitive information that would have somehow lead to this situation??? And if so, what was the nature of his beliefs??? If you need to, you can send me a U2U explaining this.

3 months later, I decided to get out instead of stay in. Within a week, there were charges brought up against me for " failure to take a urinalysis". Wait for it..... Wait for it..... They dropped the charges!!! Not because I was innocent, but because my department head said that I was the best worker he had. Go figure.

Evolved Ministry, I believe you did well. I would be surprised if you are not right about your guesses.
The thing that does it for me here is that the FBI took the family away. I can't imagine that they would drive the family to the station unless they knew that things would get really dirty.
And how convenient is it that the moment they arrived just happened to be the moment that he was alone upstairs? That could have gone VERY differently.
I agree that the story does not make sense, but alas... I haven't the slightest.

i am absolutely convinced Alyssa is his daughter, and she ain't happy with dear ole departed dad.
According to her, she has a 15 year old brother, who never got to know Darius. When her brother asked to go and stay with Darius, Darius allegedly told their mother that he didn't want his son with him.
Also, according to Alyssa, the story she was told is that Darius barricaded himself in the room when the FBI came, when they gained entrance, he swung a gun around, then went to shoot himself- and yes, in all scenarios, waving a gun at a cop or fed agent will get you shot.

Now that's just what his daughter is saying, and she seems to think he was guilty will all of his prior offenses.
It is very possible that a daughter who feels abandoned by her dad might be pissed, and willing to vilify him- I cannot know for sure. But that's her story, and to be completely honest- it rings true for me.
I don't think this is a conspiracy.
