Either way the point is the same. It requires the opponent to do all the work to make the move look good. That is not the mark of a good finisher.

The so called "Ripper" name would obviously be a spin from "Jack the Ripper" seeing his from England as well. Hopefully this will step him up to the main event picture were i believe he can perform on.

Fullerton Police received a suspicious bomb threat Friday as they continue to investigate what lead to the brutal beating and subsequent death of a mentally ill homeless man last month.

Officials confirmed Friday afternoon that a bomb threat was made at police headquarters.

The man who made the threat claimed he was representing a group called Citizens Against Fullerton Brutality and that a bomb was going to go off.

The threat later proved to be false.

There have also been death threats reported against the six officers involved and their families.

Meanwhile, a second Fullerton City Council member is calling on the city's police chief to resign, saying the chief is apparently staying mum in hopes that the public will soon forget about what happened.

"In my opinion, the chief should resign or he may be forced out of his post at some point," Bruce Whitaker told KTLA on Thursday.

"I want the chief to put a human face on this and, rather than hiding behind legalities and rather than working through spokespersons, to get out in front and man up and basically communicate to the public," he added.

Whitaker claims he was told late Thursday afternoon that Chief Michael Sellers and others are just waiting for the public to calm down over Thomas' death.

"Hunker down, wait for the passions to subside and basically with no new information being released… it will just subside."

Whitaker says he's frustrated with the situation.

"I'm very angry about it because there seems to be a tone-deafness about where the public is at on this."

Fellow council member, Sharon Quirk-Silva, has formally asked City Manager Joe Felz to call on the chief to resign.

If one more city leader steps forward calling for Sellers' resignation, it will be a majority voice of the council.

Quirk-Silva says the chief has refused to answer questions about the July 6 incident, causing her to question his ability to lead.

The six officers involved in the deadly beating have put on administrative leave with pay with pay for "their safety and the safety of the public," says the department.

But the police department has remained largely silent.

It issued a statement Wednesday saying, "This was tragic for our community. We are in the midst of an investigation."

Chief Sellers declined an interview with KTLA.
