Dunno if I missed this when reading the thread, but the rear end in a top hat cop who arrested a nurse for doing her job has been fired. His watch commander has been demoted from lieutenant to officer.

Sarcopenia posted:Wouldn't this also be a criminal offense? It would be, except that most prosecutors are cowards who don't charge cops because they don't want to jeopardize the working relationship they have with the local cops they need to work with in order to obtain convictions. Because, see, even though 99% of cops are good upstanding officers and it's only the extremely tiny minority that gives them a bad name, apparently if prosecutors actually enforced the law against the bad ones all the good ones would suddenly take umbrage at that and stop doing their jobs properly. So yes, in a just world, this isn't just kidnapping, it's also deprivation of civil rights under the color of law, with conspiracy charges on top of that, *and* with a firearm present in the commission of the crime, which means sentencing enhancements, which all probably leads to a 10+ year Federal sentence. Also, the two cops in question are appealing their punishments, which means it will probably go to a union-supported arbitrator who will overturn it and force the chief to rehire the guy he fired. https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2017/investigations/police-fired-rehired/ quote:Since 2006, the nation’s largest police departments have fired at least 1,881 officers for misconduct that betrayed the public’s trust, from cheating on overtime to unjustified shootings. But The Washington Post has found that departments have been forced to reinstate more than 450 officers after appeals required by union contracts.

Rehiring 450 from 1881 is lower than I expected, and that’s sad

For some reason you are assuming prosecutors actually want to charge the cops, but can't. It seems at least as likely that they are willingly & happily a part of the same corrupt culture.

Seldom Posts posted:It is a shame that police departments must abide by the collective agreements they sign. They should be above the law in all respects. ITYM "It's a shame that members of a police union have no incentive not to make demands that are harmful to society as a whole when they are met, and that police departments have no incentive not to accede to those demands of the union." Of course police departments must abide by the contracts they enter into, but the contracts they enter into are Dumb and contribute to awful police abuses because they make it very difficult to remove bad actors from the ranks of the police. If the majority of cops were good then that wouldn't matter because they'd police themselves and bad actors wouldn't last long, but the majority of cops aren't good so we need to make it a lot easier to fire the bad ones. In other words ban police unions. doverhog posted:Uh, yes, but I assumed that was for the 99% of cops part, not the whole thing. Of course they're part of the same corrupt system. Their interests aren't perfectly aligned, though, and the prosecutor needs the cooperation of the cops to make himself appear to be doing his job well. He needs the help of the cops more than the cops need the help of the prosecutor. So the prosecutor *doesn't* want to charge the cops, is my point. If a prosecutor wants to charge you, you'll get charged, especially at the Federal level. Phanatic has a new favorite as of 21:36 on Oct 11, 2017 |
