Being a sheriff/policeman doesn't allow them to operate outside the boundaries of the marshal's responsibilities. They're either one or the other at the time they are carrying out official duties.

SCOTUS ruled that the state can't compel or coerce a police officer to self-incriminate in a police report on the grounds of it violates the 5th and 14th Amendment. C2C - 2.0 posted:I understand that. But if they're working as marshals, they have to act within that capacity.

I wouldn't be surprised though if the waters get muddied somewhat due to this fact and it causes this thing to take a lot more time than it should.

It's always amusing to see that in this era where police activity is scrutinized, the response to implied criticism is to make a vague threat at a prominent director.

They're going to film a documentary heist movie where they steal the masters sent out to cinemas. And at the end, when the credits roll it's going to say DIRECTED BY QUENTIN TARANTINO. Bam, box office success.

The police aren't a class of people, they're public servants. Police forces regularly tout their own internal processes and investigations for dealing with officer-related misconduct.

And where's the recourse after that? They haven't been arrested, they haven't been charged, and they get to just casually ignore their own internal investigations while their superiors in the department simply shrug their shoulders at reporters. How else can you shoot a child several times to death and avoid all responsibility and inquisition except by being an American cop?

Wikipedia->Garrity Warning posted:You are being asked to provide information as part of an internal and/or administrative investigation. This is a voluntary interview and you do not have to answer questions if your answers would tend to implicate you in a crime. No disciplinary action will be taken against you solely for refusing to answer questions. However, the evidentiary value of your silence may be considered in administrative proceedings as part of the facts surrounding your case. Any statement you do choose to provide may be used as evidence in criminal and/or administrative proceedings.

Occupation is a class of people, that's not even a legal term, a class is literally any group of people that have an attribute in common. Hell its even a protected class in New York housing law.

Of course the police apologizers are going to default to arguing semantics. gently caress off with that. I know what Garrity says; it's bullshit. Despite all the evidence, despite their own processes, despite everything, these cops are walking around getting to do whatever it is they do while if it were any other "class of person" they would be sitting behind bars. That's what it boils down to.

If it makes you feel that much better, I wasn't targeting you. My overarching point is that, despite what the law might say otherwise, the police are treated as if they are above the law and they get certain privileges that most people don't get when they commit murder. That isn't an opinion, that is demonstrated fact with ample direct evidence. If they were in fact treated worse than your average citizen when committing the same acts there would be an argument for that, but it doesn't happen. Jarmak posted:Also its a little premature to say these guys are getting away with anything, especially since it sounds like the local chief of police was already looking for a reason to nail the marshals.

Devor posted:Everyone should have the level of protection that police unions do, rather than eliminating the protections that police have. I don't understand the value in making it so no one has to cooperate with their employer into investigations and where they can face no repercussions for not cooperating. This is the exact same reason LAPD officers were able to destroy police recording equipment without any punishment, because none of the officers involved snitched and no one could be punished for covering up a crime.

rockopete posted:Is this some lame bait to attack the concept of unions? Are you that thick? Unions are good. The Fifth Amendment is good. People who are police officers should be able to be in a union and should be able to use the Fifth Amendment. Sometimes it is frustrating to see that people who we have decided have done bad things do things like exercise their bargained-for union rights or their inalienable constitutional rights. It's OK to feel that, but it should not follow that unions or Constitutional rights are bad.

I would hope that the prosecutor would at least take a few days to build a bulletproof indictment. It's not like the police officers are a flight risk, or going to kill more people under color of law while they're suspended. I hope the police officers are punished to the maximum extent possible, but I also recognize that acting hastily is why police officers can be fired 'for cause' and then later reinstated with backpay years later. The cynical part of me says that the Chiefs responsible do it on purpose, to negate consequences for their subordinates.
