I actually remember this event.

Ypsilanti— A woman involved with her three sons in a notorious shootout at a motel in 1987 that resulted in the death of three Inkster police officers has died.
Alberta Easter, who was being held at Women's Huron Valley Correctional Facility in Ypsilanti, died on Sunday shortly after being taken to St. Joseph Mercy Hospital in Ann Arbor, a Department of Corrections spokesman said.
Easter, who was 93, died from natural causes, according to prison system spokesman Russ Marlan.
The shootout occurred at an Inkster motel where Easter was living when the officers tried to arrest her and one of her sons on charges that they bounced a $286 check.
After the officers were shot, Easter and three sons kept other police at bay during a 10-hour standoff that involved hundreds of rounds fired from the first-floor motel room.
Killed in the initial shootout were Officers Clay Hoover, 24, and Dan Dubiel, 36, and Sgt. Ira Parker, 41.
Hoover and Dubiel were shot 29 times each, according to testimony at the murder trial.
Easter and three sons were convicted of first-degree murder and given three life sentences apiece.

"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."
Winter is Coming

Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
