I remember working at 77th division the night it happened and hearing that horrible officer needs help call come over the radio. I felt helpless since I was working at the desk and couldn't respond. I just started praying that every would be ok.

Also, I had you for a day as my training officer about 4-6 months prior to that horrible night. You definitely left an good impression on me that I still can remember having you as my partner.

I left LAPD about 8 years later after that night but still today I have never forgot you!

Danny, I never met you, but I’ve heard a lot of great things about you from your wife, Andi. You will never be forgotten. You live through tour children.

Even all these years later, Danny is still on my mind. We worked patrol together at Hollenbeck. I went to the Academy and sometime later he went to 77th.

I was older than Danny and he often asked me for advice, or just wanted to talk. The last time, at the Academy Fountain, shortly before his murder.

He was a good cop. I miss him.

Shameful and cowardly to ambush an officer. May Officer Daniel Pratt rest in peace.

I think Danny had five or six years on the job when he was murdered. He was a 2..3 serial number. He worked for Bob G. In RAD when he was murdered. I know this because I worked 77th back then.

Just a note, the actual killer got life without parole. It is the driver not the actual killer eligible.

A Revoke Parole letter written and sent this day. What a disgrace for this officer and his family.

Det. Billy Russo (Ret.)

Once again, a murdered officer has been betrayed by the people he swore to protect. Officer Pratt did not get a chance at parole but his life was taken without any regard for the pain and suffering it would cause. My letter sent for revoking the parole of this murderer has been sent. Rest in peace, you have not been forgotten.

It is inconceivable that the person who murdered Danny Pratt should be paroled. Officer Pratt's undeserved sentence was death, and his killer should never walk free.
Letter sent to the governor to revoke parole. Praying for family & friends.

Father, give wisdom, strength and courage to the family of Officer Pratt, who must now relive the nightmare of their loved ones' tragic murder by thugs so many years ago. I pray for the wisdom of Gov. Brown, that he revoke this parole, not just now, but every single time he comes up for it. God bless the Pratt family with your love and comfort from this day forward...

Rest in peace brother, my No Parole letter goes out tomorrow. Thank you for your service and hopefully this guy never sees freedom again. God bless the family and friends of Officer Pratt who are having relive this nightmare again.

Officer Pratt's sentence was death. He never had the opportunity to say goodbye to his wife and kids. He never got to see them grow. It is unfair that his murder's have the potential to walk free. For the sake of his family, the community and law enforcement please deny parole and keep them in prison where they belong. Officer Pratt does not have the option of parole and neither should they.

To Whom it May Concern,

I respectfully ask that you DENY PAROLE to Rayleen Brooks, inmate #W40103. This inmate's involvement in the brutal and violent murder of Police Officer Daniel Pratt, of the Los Angeles Police Department in 1988 should preclude her from ever being paroled.

In the wake of what is currently going on in the world, it would be a clear sign of how we view these types of crimes and how we address them.

Sincerely,

Det. Martinez
