No wonder Utah has law enforcement issues

A Utah Highway Patrol trooper who was caught on tape punching a woman multiple times after a chase and was later fired for it has a new job as a peace officer.
Andrew Davenport was hired by the Ogden Police Department in June 2011, months after he was let go by the Utah Highway Patrol as a result of the allegation of excessive use of force during a pursuit on Aug. 28, 2010.
Davenport was rated by a commission as the top candidate out of 102 on the eligibility list, Ogden Police Chief Mike Ashment said in a prepared statement. He said Davenport went through a background check and behavior evaluation.
This is what happens when prosecutors play buddy/buddy with police and don't charge these maniacs with crimes for their actions on the job. They get a free pass to go on to the next jurisdiction where they plainly put the people at risk of harm or death.
The police union deserves a mighty congratulations for bullying the state and cities in to accepting such severe limits on their powers to remove the jack booted thugs.
A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.
