Father of California police shooting suspect says son was "ticking time bomb."

SANTA CRUZ, Calif. (AP) — The father of a suspect in the fatal shooting of two California police officers said Wednesday his son was a ticking time bomb who had contempt for police and the justice system.

Jeremy Goulet, a 35-year-old coffee shop worker, had numerous run-ins with the law and swore he would never go back to jail, Ronald Goulet told The Associated Press.

He said he never thought his son would turn to such violence.

In May 2008, Goulet was convicted in Portland, Ore., of peeping on a 22-year-old woman who was showering in her condominium, and of carrying a concealed weapon, according to The Oregonian newspaper.

The elder Goulet said his son constantly undermined any success he had in the military or college due to an insatiable desire to peep in the windows of women showering or getting dressed.

"He's got one problem, peeping in windows," his father said in a halting emotional voice. "I asked him, 'Why don't you just go to a strip club?' He said he wants a good girl that doesn't know she's being spied on, and said he couldn't stop doing it."

1. Sounds like he's got more than one problem

And it doesn't seem like his father took it seriously.
