The Onion Field Murder - REAL Crime Scene Locations 4K

[@johnfenady1226]

In 1979 I worked on the film "The Onion Field" as a assistant sound editor! From the book by Joseph Wambaugh! It was a difficult movie to work on due to the subject matter! How Carl Hettinger was treated was horrible! Two lives were lost that fateful day! Carl drank himself to death as this case dragged out for years never letting him find peace with the situation! He was fired from the force or should I say he was forced to resign or be brought up on charges for retail theft! There is a memorial to Ian J. Campbell on the 101 freeway by Highland Ave! Every time I pass by it I say a little prayer for Ian and Carl! And that our Police would stay safe out there and come home safely to their loved ones! This senseless murder really got to me! Especially because of my involvement on the movie! (RIP Ian, and Carl!)

[@ianmoniz-shawk4220]

I am the great grandson of Ian Campbell and i want to say thank u very much for explaining this story and getting it out there for everyone to learn about it, its good to know people still know the story

[@Airborne-80]

I retired from LAPD HOLLYWOOD Division in 95. As a training officer, I would take probationary officers to the site of the original stop and discuss this tragic case. Thank you for keeping the names of both officers Alive. Both of them died that night.....it just took Carle a lot longer to stop breathing. 🙏🙏

[@plasticweapon]

brutal truth.

[@dalestaley5637]

I gave anesthesia to the Onion Field murderer. He was chained to the gurney with a prison guard accompanying him. He had flat affect, refused to answer the questions related to his medical record. He looked right through me. I had read the book before I was assigned to him. I was creeped creepier out!

[@AlanToon-fy4hg]

And both bad guys outlived him. I read Joseph Waumbaugh's book. The movie was even more terrifying...

[@CorneliusFahey]

[@huntingtonbeachanthony4957]

You sure you weren't at Rampart with those hoodlum cops?

[@JTEllis]

I am a retired police officer in Alabama. I own first editions of all Joesph Wambaughs books. He turned 87 years old yesterday Jan 22, according to internet sources. I purchased each book when they were published. Recently I re-read The Onion Field. I own a DVD of the movie. The Onion Field and a book written by the lead investigator on that case, Pearce Brooks, Officer Down Code Three, should be required reading in police academies. Like the previous commenter said, thank for for keeping the memory of Cambell and Hettinger alive. Thanks to The Onion Field, I never went to work without a backup gun on my person. Great work on this video.

[@gregp4735]

Glad you mentioned Joseph Wambaugh. I tried to read all of his books as soon as they were published, and I was especially mesmerized by The Onion Field. Also, as an amateur book collector, I'm envious of your Wambaugh first editions. They must occupy a special place on your bookshelf.

[@JTEllis]

@@gregp4735 Thank you for your kind reply to my comment. I have never visited the LAPD museum in Los Angeles. My brother has. I understand they have a section on Joseph Wambaugh. And Ian Campbell's bagpipes are on that display. I would love to see it. According to my brother, the display notes that Campbell's funeral was the first time a bagpipe was played at an LAPD officer's funeral. Wambaugh quit writing for almost a decade in the late 90's. He came back with a four book series called Hollywood Hills. I don't think they were ever available in hardback editions. However, they are good reading. And most enjoyable if you read them in order. Wambaugh produced the movie Onion Field himself. That is why the movie got the story right. I have watched several KZbin videos about the Onion Field, there is a lot of information out there.

[@NunzioScoleri]

Go figure, my wife and I just moved to Bakersfield, tonight we went out with my mother in law, who’s a retired police officer/ homicide detective here and she was telling me about this tonight. Come home, go to KZbin to find a video about it and one of my favorite channels has it covered! You guys rock, I’m going to share this with her too!

[@onimonk]

How Officer Hettinger was treated after the crime and the complete lack of empathy and support was a crime in and of itself. Thanks as always for the early premiere.

[@FreddyLV426]

Empathy and support from cops in the early 60s? Hilarious. Never give up your weapon for any reason, better to die a hero than to live like a coward and get your friends killed.

[@intothenight756d47]

Eight years in the Marines, Korea and Vietnam. Today we would (hopefully) recognise the effects of this service and Hettinger's desire to survive once Campbell (Bless his Soul), had been shot. Yes, don't give up your weapon, and yes, never leave a comrade behind, but then we are not Hettinger and we were not there.

[@SoundOfSilence-k8u]

ITS SAME YEAR 63 FOUR MONTHS LTR. AT ANGEL LOUNGE NEW JERSEY. GOT WORSE AS TWO COPS OFF DUTY WERE STRIP NAKED AT GUN POINT. PISTLE WHIPPED. AND SHOT IN THE HEAD. ITS STRANGE HOW THESE TWO MURDERS OF POLICE WERE IN SAME YEAR. TERRIFYING.

[@michaelmccrary532]

As a former police officer from Santa Clara County, California (1978 to 1981), I have personally reviewed this case via books, films, and documentaries like this. I have often asked myself what I would have done if I had been in Hettinger's place. I do not know for sure. And neither do the critics inside and outside the LAPD. I will give these critics the benefit of the doubt and chalk it up to the police culture in 1963. They are both my heroes.

[@Cgopat]

Thanks for taking the time to find the location of the shooting. The video was very interesting. In 2006 I was working out of LAPD's Central Station, the station that covers Skid Row. We were told in roll call that Jimmy Lee Smith, who was paroled in the 80s, but had been in and out of jail several times for parole violations, was back out of jail on parole, had violated his parole again, and was somewhere amongst the thousands of homeless in Skid Row. There was a warrant for his arrest and it was the goal of every officer in Central Division to find Smith to ensure he would be sent back to jail. We were told he was in poor health so if found he'd probably never taste freedom again. Sometime later an officer name Nichols found Smith. A couple of months later Smith died in prison, like he was supposed to, and not a free man.

[@houdini1972]

This is a famous crime, but it doesn't get talked about a lot. Thank you.

[@rudybarajas4159]

I can't believe you did this story ! I too went to visit the grave of officer Campbell to show my respects . It was around the early 80's and I was a musician traveling on the road with a band . I had seen the movie in Phoenix and then later found the book in Denver . I got hooked on author Joseph Wambaugh and read almost all his books . We did a gig in the Pismo Beach area and on our day off went to L.A. While everyone else went to hang out on the Sunset Strip and Hollywood I mad e the trip over to the cemetery and left flowers on the grave . Thank you for doing this story . I'm 63 now and no longer travel . But when I was on the road I always liked to seek out the interesting things that happened close to where I had landed . I felt it was important to stand where history happened . That is why I love your channel ! Keep up the good work . Love you guys... stay safe !

I first saw the movie many years ago as a kid. I later became a State Trooper ( since retired)and my department would discuss this incident during officer survival training. One thing i learned and was taught from this incident was to never give up your advantage. 🙏 continue to rest in peace Officer Campbell.

[@SarahDigsHockey]

Good job in putting this video together. Beautiful, yet eerie, scenery.

[@kaymad143]

I had never heard about this, tragic story. Officer Hettinger should never have been blamed, what he had to live with after that horrible shooting, is devastating. I hope those 2 dirtbags were sent to jail for life. I hope that Officer Campbell is resting in peace and is remembered.

[@cardinaloflannagancr8929]

Yes that is what happened one was sentenced to death though due to the Supreme Court Ruling it was commuted to a life sentence. One of the worst things was the shooting was due to Powell misinterpreting the "Lindberg Law." He even asked Campbell if he heard of it and after hearing yes he had shot him. Powell thought the kidnapping was automatically a capitol crime which it was not. That actually required at that time harm to the victims or a ransom demand, which neither of those had happened. So ironically they had committed a capitol crime to try and avoid a non capitol offense which they thought was capitol.

[@nancyvillines4552]

You should read the book, The Onion Field. Also a movie of the same name. With Ted Danson and Jon Voight I believe.

[@darleneshe3263]

@@cardinaloflannagancr8929thanks for clarifying this. I was actually around 14 when I first watched this, and when Officer Campbell’s character, Ted Danson was shot, I remember being in such shock & disbelief…and still to this day ( I’m now 54) it sends chills up my spine. I didn’t read about the Lindberg case & Lindberg Law until recently, and that’s what brought me here.

[@paulthompson4332]

I like how you said that Michael..."You kind of forget, they're real people..." That's so important, because through books and movies, they seem more of a fiction character rather than one who truly lived, loved, enjoyed life until it was cut short. I have great respect to our police officers. I remember years back, my grandmother and I got into a small accident with our car (nothing big) and dented the front corner up a little. We took it to the police station in the area where we lived and an officer looked at it. I bring this up, because that same officer (didn't know his name) that had spoken to us was killed/murdered months later.....he was stabbed in the leg and I guess the knife had hit a major artery?? I only knew it was him because they showed a photo of him in the local paper after his death, and I recognized him immediately as the one who'd spoken with us. This was a great video/story Thank you Michael and Jessica HAPPY HALLOWEEN🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃

[@hossdacopeland]

True that Officer Campbell was the only one murdered, but there were many victims. Especially Officer Karl Hettinger. What they did to that man was brutal and unacceptable. Granted it was before we knew about PTSD, but still he was treated very poorly. Yes the officers made mistakes, but nothing deserving what happened in the aftermath. Fortunately this incident led to better training and better help for officers who go through traumatic events like this one was. I say this as a retired LEO. Great video. Well done.

[@lucyke5070]

You and Jessica always do a fine job, characterized by your compassion and striving to be factual. It’s also straight-to-the-point content, without embellishment or hype. Good work. I like your videos and it’s quite moving to see the actual places where humans faced such terrible odds. Thank you.

[@joeguzman3558]

Excellent video. Back in 1976, in high school, we used to have police officers, firemen, and different occupations, so we could go into those jobs and get an idea of the benefits of working with the public. We went to that location as part of a classroom assignment, and some detectives that worked on the onion fields original case were there ( I was just a teenager and didn't really absorb the historical moment that was being there with the original police detectives that worked on the case) they took us to each location and I remember one of the police detective tears as he was telling us the story.

No one should give up their gun to a criminal ... but yes, especially an LEO. They are held responsible for any murders using their weapon to this day.

[@rapman5791]

@@joliepop1661not true. If an officer gets assaulted or killed and the perpetrator takes the officers weapon and uses it for another murder it’s not the officers fault or responsibility. Every gun owner is responsible for the safe care and protection of their weapon.

Why would you single out just the LAPD ? No officer should ever give up their weapon , but when it comes down to it , it's the officers decision , just like the old timer says in the movie later while in briefing .

VERY well done, Michael & Jessica. Another little fact: the lesson from this horrible tale of Campbell and Hettinger is taught to every LAPD recruit. New strategies and procedures were implemented, as a result of this case including how officers approach vehicles, position themselves, communicate and keep control of their guns. It’s not uncommon for a veteran officer to drive a rookie to the intersection where Campbell and Hettinger were kidnapped. Gregory Powell died of prostate cancer in prison in 2012. Jimmy Lee Smith was actually paroled but continued to have run-ins with the law...he died in 2007 - while imprisoned for a parole violation.

[@NeutronRob]

Victim #2 was Officer Hettinger. After this happened he was put back on duty on Monday evening. No time off. No documented counseling whatsoever. He was made to go to all the roll calls in each LAPD Division and retell the story of how he gave up his gun and how his partner was killed. The LAPD deserves the blame for what happened to Karl Hettinger. Hettinger never really recovered and purposely got caught shoplifting so he could get fired. It was an obvious cry for help that went unheard. He eventually became a Kern County Supervisor. He died in 1994.

[@darleneshe3263]

Wow that is so sad and unfortunate. Hopefully, he found some solace after changing jobs. May both he and Officer Campbell rest in peace🙏🏾
