Yeah, I'm pretty sure given San Antonio's cops, the union threw him under the bus as expendable.

Is there something specific about San Antonio that makes it more likely for the union to throw him under the bus?

I don’t think so. He was not out of the probationary period yet and thus did not have full benefits.

They've had a major corruption and police gang problem for years. https://www.ksat.com/topic/Broken_Blue/ KSAT did a series a couple years ago about how hosed up it is, and found that the SAPD reinstated over 2/3 of the cops it fired for misconduct.

Uh…at least he didn’t shoot his wife with his service weapon? Jesus what the gently caress is wrong with cops in this country. Imagine I posted that dril ISIS tweet except with cops.

Don't forget the guy who's been fired for misconduct six times, rehired five of those, and is appealing the 6th. Since I'm apparently in Cop News mode, 8th Circuit tells an Iowa cop to gently caress off and no QI for him after he pepper sprayed someone filming a protest. https://twitter.com/gabrielmalor/status/1583158265583894528 Note the highlighted bit, he was on scene for 12 seconds before resorting to violence.

Former officer who was used essentially as a sex slave and then made to live in hell as her story went viral has sued the city and police department. The complaint is here. I hope she takes them to the cleaners. I recall crab dad's story when he was a cadet. He was told that there was an anonymous report box and that he should report anyone acting in ways unbecoming police. he reported a lot of sexual harassment anonymously. Then he found out that the box wasn't anonymous at all, they read his complaints in front of everyone, told them he couldn't be trusted to protect them, and then subsequently made sure he could not get a job as a cop launching the best naval reserve career anyone could dream of.

You’re more likely to get shot on the clock working the Night Shift at Taco Bell than working the Night Shift as a cop. Why is Night Shift being capitalized here?

Looks like the FBI and Army SOC had a whoopsie: FBI and Army members raided the wrong hotel room during a training exercise and detained a guest inside quote:Members of the FBI and the US Army Special Operations Command who were conducting a training exercise in downtown Boston raided the wrong hotel room and detained the person inside before realizing their mistake, the FBI said in a statement to CNN. The detainee in this case was apparently a Delta Airlines employee, no real news beyond that. At least they didn't shoot the person, I guess?

Less egregious than some of the others, but still pretty ugly considering there was a global pandemic that just killed a million Americans. A woman with tuberculosis took a bus to a casino while an officer with a warrant for her arrest let her go Woman has received numerous orders to isolate and be treated for TB, and has refused. She's put under surveillance, with a warrant out for her arrest, and the officer charged with doing so catches her on a bus to a casino and just...doesn't do anything about it. Most folks would at least be reprimanded, if not fired, for insubordination like this - especially when it's a public health threat.

Excellent news if you were worried that cops might receive some accountability for chasing somebody into the woods and executing them for the crime of stealing sunglasses: quote:A grand jury in Fairfax County, Virginia, has declined to indict a former Fairfax County officer who fatally shot an unarmed man near Tysons Corner Center mall in February. https://wtop.com/fairfax-county/202...-corner-center/

https://www.morningjournal.com/2023/07/07/justice-for-dixie-rally-protests-fatal-shooting-of-dog-by-lorain-police-officer/ Useless piece of poo poo pig shoots and kills a three year old Yellow Lab that was clearly acting in a friendly and non-aggressive matter, angering an entire neighborhood. The body cam audio doesn’t activate until after the shooting, but obviously it’s loving horrible. Really trying to not be an internet tough guy here but I honestly don’t think I could trust myself to act rationally if something like that happened to my dogs. Those neighbors acted with a lot of restraint in not beating the absolute poo poo out of that cop right then and there. I hope that department’s cruisers start catching bricks through windshields until that cop is fired and jailed for animal cruelty.

i assume that police receive either formal training or informal advice to "not take any risks" with dogs and to shoot them as soon as they feel threatened, considering that the likely cost to the department is so low. and then chasing them down to finish them off must be, at least some of the time, an attempted act of mercy. some people take more readily to the task of petcecution than others though. https://www.criminallegalnews.org/news/2018/jun/16/doj-police-shooting-family-dogs-has-become-epidemic/ posted:The DOJ estimates that around 25 to 30 dogs are killed by cops every day, with some numbers as high as 10,000 per year. The totals could, in fact, be higher, since most police agencies do not formally track officer-involved shootings involving animals. [foxworthy voice] if you're responsible for 27% of the dog murders in your department, you might be a psychopath e: quote:A Florida teen who fatally shot a police dog was sentenced to 23 years in prison.

No, they're just loving pieces of poo poo. It's not that a person becomes a cop and then shoots dogs. A person becomes a cop because they want to do poo poo like shoot someone's dog with impunity.

The department says it has 'no reason to believe' it was meant to be offensive.quote:A police precinct had a mock tombstone of a man killed by police in its break room, the Seattle Times reported.

Duzzy Funlop posted:It's a tardigrade, or water bear...for some reason. Oh...kay. That does explain the DC though, Water Bear Don't Care - IIRC, tardigrades are extremely resilient to most hazards and can be revived pretty reliably. Heat, cold, dry, wet, etc. I can come up with some ideas but it's pure speculation, how weird.

It's not like they're any better with people. The CDC and FBI have been soundly criticized for years for how the track police killings, with a study in 2021 finding that over 40 years 1980-2019 deaths from police violence were under-reported in the National Vital Statistics System by over 50%. Study info here, and the authors note that it didn't capture the full scope of police violence as it only accounted for deaths, not injuries caused by police violence. In 2022 1 in 20 homicides in the US were police killing someone. Average of 1000 people per year over the last decade. So 10k dogs doesn't surprise me, we have a serious psychopath problem in our law enforcement.
