BATON ROUGE: The man who ambushed and killed three law enforcement officers in Louisiana purportedly described his actions as a “necessary evil” in a self-described, handwritten manifesto that an Ohio man says was emailed to him by the gunman less than an hour before the shootings.

In the letter, Long said he expected people who knew him wouldn’t believe he would commit “such horrendous acts of violence.”
