He was full of Crock.
Progressive firebrand Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s fugitive security guard had an extensive criminal history dating back to 2009 and was under federal investigation when he was shot and killed in a standoff with Dallas SWAT.
Diamon-Mazairre Robinson was identified as the armed man who police shot in a parking garage at the Children’s Medical Center in Dallas, Wednesday night, CBS News Texas reported.
Robinson, 39, had gone by multiple aliases, including Mike King, to con his way into the Texas law enforcement community, claiming to be a police officer and securing a position protecting the 44-year-old congresswoman.
The shady suspect had been arrested numerous times between 2009 and 2012, including seven instances of theft, according to the outlet.
Robinson had pleaded guilty to all charges he faced, both felony and misdemeanor offenses, and only faced fines of less than $2,500 and probation.
His largest sentence was 10 years of probation, according to court records viewed by CBS News Texas.
Robinson used his alias Mike King to elude discovery of his criminal past and find work in Crockett’s office, where he was most recently part of the security detail for her failed Senate campaign.
Video footage previously shared by the outlet captured Crockett walking beside her towering security guard as they arrived at a campaign stop.
He allegedly told officers that he was a detective with the US Capitol Police, which led to the federal probe into his alleged impersonation, sources told the outlet.
Robinson claimed he was in charge of several teams of guards around the Dallas area that worked at churches and downtown hotels.
Robinson is also believed to have used his fake identity to run a website called “Off Duty Police Services” that provided cops with jobs outside of work.
“Mike King” had been paid by Crockett’s office for “security services” as recently as last year, with one payment for $340.
It was not clear how Robinson gained the position working for Crockett.
The Dallas Police fugitive unit had been tracking Robinson on Wednesday when he led them to the parking garage connected to the children’s hospital, where he barricaded himself inside a car.
Robinson jumped out of his car and pointed a gun at police after they used tear gas to force him out. Because of the firearm threat, officers opened fire on the armed suspect and fatally shot him.
Crockett has not publicly commented on Robinson’s death.
