* A Webster Parish Louisiana deputy was indicted in Texas on aggravated sexual assault to child and indecent contact with a child charges on allegations he had sexually abused a child over a period of several years since the child was 6 years old.
pretty sick. whats even sicker is this pedophile is still on duty and not in a cell. would this be the case with a non-only one?
* A Virginia Beach Virginia police officer was arrested and charged with taking indecent liberties with a child and contributing to the delinquency of a minor charges after an investigation into allegations of a months-long relationship he was having with a juvenile.
at least this guy isn't on paid leave.
* At least two Tybee Georgia police officers are accused of tasering an 18-year-old autistic man twice which resulted in facial injuries and a broken tooth after apparently mistaking him for being drunk while he sat outside a bar waiting for his brother to get done ordering food. His brother says the officers were surprised upon finding out the teen also had a heart condition and they would have forgiven it if they had just apologized for the mistake.
so instead of acknowledging their mistake, they had to continue enforcing their idiotic idea that the victim was drunk and disorderly. great professionalism. must be that new Scalia professionalism. wonder how much this settlement will cost the taxpayers.
* Several Oakland California police officers are under investigation after causing a near riot at a “badge vs badge” boxing match between an Oakland cop and a state corrections officer. The Oakland cops watching the bout sparked a shoving match complete with thrown chairs that took 5 minutes to calm down due to their trash talking and aggressive behavior against other spectators. As a result, Oakland California police officers have been banned from IBA sanctioned boxing matches until the investigation is complete, at the least.
curiously, nobody was arrested. go figure.
* A Pennsylvania state trooper is under investigation after the police chief of Mount Jewett Pennsylvania accused him of bullying and retaliation after she spurned his advances. She made the complaint against him after the trooper pulled her over for speeding and gave her a ticket for allegedly doing 6mph over the limit.
this story is a little crazy to follow
* A Houston Texas police officer and what ended up being an innocent bystander were both injured by shotgun shell fragments after the officer misfired his shotgun into the ground while he and fellow officers were stopping the man on suspicion that he was firing a gun into the air earlier that night. Police say they are unsure if he pulled the trigger of if the shotgun malfunctioned.
did they really say 'malfunctioned'? really?
* A Dougherty County GA police officer has been accused of needlessly shooting a stray dog after a woman called and complained about it saying she was worried it would attack her dogs or her horses. However, neighbors say the dog was very tame and that they had asked the officer if they could take the dog home with them and get it treatment after the officer had shot it in the leg but they he refused to let them help it.
conflicting versions of what happened here. hopefully an update will reveal the truth
* A man wrongfully imprisoned thanks to a Tulsa Oklahoma police officer who is now under federal investigation for corruption was freed just hours before his son graduated from high school. The man was wrongfully jailed for nearly 5 years on trumped up drug trafficking charges due to the false testimony of an informant who later recanted and admitted that the police coerced him into lying.
trumped up charges? corruption and false testimony? surely not from an 'only one', right?
* A Memphis Tennessee police officer is accused by witnesses of speeding without his lights or siren on when he fatally struck a 57-year-old female pedestrian with his patrol car. The incident is currently under investigation but police are apparently saying that he wasn’t responding to any calls at the time.
This has happened before with other officers, usually ending up in a misdemeanor charge. we'd receive the same courtesy, right?
* A South Bend Indiana police officer received a 5 day suspension for getting into an altercation with a fellow officer who fired a shot at his police dog after it attacked two officers while they were making an arrest. The disciplinary action was reduced for unknown reasons as the chief was originally reported as trying to issue a 30 day unpaid suspension. Both the officer and his dog are back on patrol.
i'd like to know the reasons for the reduction and who reduced it. Judge? review board?
* Five Chattanooga Tennessee police officers are the subject of a federal lawsuit filed by a woman who claims the officers beat her and wrongfully detained her after she refused to let them enter her friend’s home without a warrant after they arrested the friend she was staying with over a dispute he was having with his neighbor. Two of the officers cited in the lawsuit have previous findings of excessive force made against them.
This is unbelievable. The officers demanded entry in to the home and the woman refused to let them in without a warrant. So she was grabbed, thrown in to a window and table, handcuffed so tightly that her hands and wrists sustained substantial injuries, then left to sit in a police car for two hours until those same police could obtain the warrant they needed. These thugs not only need to be fired, but they need to be charged and jailed as well.
* A Bonney Lake Washington police officer has been ordered by a judge to stay away from a man and his sister after the two filed for a protection order against him alleging he used excessive force when he wrongfully arrested them on resisting and obstruction charges. The judge ruled that he found discrepancies in the officer’s arrest report when he made the ruling, not to mention that the officer had a history of excessive force allegations from his previous position as a King County deputy prior to being pressured into resigning.
again we see 'only one' protectionism. It's obvious the previous allegations had merit or he wouldn't have been pressured in to resigning. Wouldn't that actually make his former superiors accomplices in a criminal act?
* And finally, it seems as though the Corpus Christi Texas police department spent hours ripping out what they cited as one of the largest marijuana crop seizures their department had ever made… only to discover later that their large weed crop that they confiscated from a city park turned out to be just plain old garden variety weeds that bore very little resemblance to marijuana.
this is not misconduct, just plain stupidity. Are we actually to understand that not one single police officer in that entire department can tell the difference between marijuana and regular old garden weeds?
