After four years, a Gallup man accused of murdering one police officer and trying to murder three more faced a judge for sentencing.At the end of a long and emotional hearing, Judge Grant Fautz sentenced Robert Kiro to 34 years in prison. Kiro had entered an Alford plea earlier this month to a charge of second-degree murder.Some of it was technical, some of it was tearful, but all of Monday morning's testimony was riveting, as four current and former Gallup police officers told what happened the morning of May 29, 2001. After a night of failed negotiation with Kiro, the SWAT team stormed his mobile home and ran into an angry Kiro armed with a .44-caliber pistol.The court heard from Kiro in the form of a taped statement the prosecution said was made the day of the raid. On the tape, Kiro admitted firing first at SWAT officers, saying he was scared and trying to protect his house. He said that he didn't know anyone had been killed.The SWAT team was originally called to Kiro's mobile home about a domestic dispute. Cpl. Larry Brian Mitchell was killed in the shoot-out and a second Gallup police officer was wounded..Mitchell's parents, Larry and Kathy Mitchell, said going to Kiro's sentencing hearing was difficult, but they felt they needed to do it."When he sat there and he expressed no remorse ... . I'm going to ask the judge to give him the maximum (sentence)," Larry Mitchell said. "It's not going to bring back our son, but this way there won't be any appeals. When this is over, it's over."
