Off duty cop moonlighting as a security guard in a hooded sweatshirt and dark pants with his gun drawn demands a 17 get out of the car. Kid tries to get away and the cop kills him. No indictment. http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/08/27/off-duty-texas-cop-cleared-in-fatal-shooting-of-teen-he-suspected-of-drug-use/ This is what the officer was wearing:

The problem seems to be officers confusing their guns for the source of their authority and respect rather than their badge and uniform.

SwingShift posted:I like my idea better because it lets me think up a very ridiculous movie premise and I can ignore the fact that a detective said rape should not be a crime if it was only a "simple" rape. A detective that handled 11 simple rape cases. Well, he was assigned 11 simple rape cases. If he handled them it wouldn't be a horrific story of injustice.

Stop filling in blanks that don't exist. You thought people were nit picking regarding an officer that tossed a report about a raped two year old having an std. Or an officer assigned to investigate rapes thought simple rape shouldn't even be a crime.

quote:"The gun was in the bed, I went to move it, put it to the side, and it went off," McCollom said. The gun happened to be in bed while the couple was sleeping and that's why the police chief shot his wife. Who the gently caress sleeps with a loaded gun in the bed besides a tweaker 80s movie character?

Florida police use sex-crime laws to bait men with no apparent interest in underage trystsquote:You're probably thinking, Wait a minute, I'd run from underage encounters. How could men who were really seeking adult sex partners be groomed to break the law? quote:"In the case of a 27-year-old Cape Coral man ... deputies arrested him even though he didn't even travel to meet a child for sex. Law enforcement officers responded to the man's legal 'casual encounters' Craigslist ad, pretending to be a 14-year-old girl, even though the ad said, 'age for all women must be 18+ no one under email me plz.' The man repeatedly told the undercover detectives that he was 'not OK' with meeting up with an underage girl, but because he didn't immediately end the conversation, he was arrested for utilizing his phone to solicit a sexual act from a child. Detectives went to his house and arrested him as a sexual predator of children." quote:In essence, the police wasted time pursing non-threats to public safety in part to enrich themselves at the expense of people like a 24-year-old man arrested in a January sting, who "had to pay $10,000 cash to get his 2014 Lexus returned ... though all felony charges were later dropped in his case, he will not get the money back for either the negotiated settlement or the fees he paid an attorney to handle the vehicle case." This is yet another illustration of the need for asset forfeiture reform.

Lots of talk about the douches trolling the thread. Duluth won't release body camera video of police shooting quote:"We have determined that it's in the best interest of the city and our officer to classify (the video) under this statute," Johnson said in an interview. "We want to make sure that when, and if, there's a lawsuit, that we have the strongest defense possible for the city and the officer." I hope some news organization pushes for the release of this video. The city choosing to withhold it because it might hurt their defense if it gets released is some absurd circular logic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dx32b5igLwA

Cmdr. Shepard posted:Research the elements of the crime of sexual assault (may be labeled differently in your state). When you've successfully identified all the required elements and state of mind required to charge the offense, review the scenario that was posted and identify whether or not the elements of the crime and mental state were present and probable cause exists for an arrest or warrant. quote:The effort of reformers over the last several decades has led to the http://scholarlycommons.law.northwestern.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=7410&context=jclc Some shithole states still require a victim to physically resist to escalate an incident to sexual assault. Saying "No" isn't enough. Got to get yourself a black eye and a broken nose before the government cares enough to believe a victim.

mlmp08 posted:Being there can still be quite a pain in the rear end if "there" is a road or public space other people need to use. If protestors are looking to clog up the steps of the courthouse for a few hours all the police really need is a couple of observers to report if things get out of hand. "People" are using it. To protest. What you mean is "other more important people need to use" it.

http://www.wftv.com/news/news/local/groveland-officers-accused-using-excessive-force-1/nj2Cp/ Pointing a gun at a child while your partner pins her to the ground with his knee is hardly surprising, but this: quote:Rigdon was suspended in May and demoted in 2013 from corporal. He was also reprimanded in 2011. Each punishment was the result of allegedly filing false police reports. How the gently caress do you have an officer on staff who continually files false reports? How can he possibly be useful giving testimony?

SedanChair posted:I think the point was until we confront the facts of racism, biased policing and Americans' objectively false beliefs about black people and crime, White House initiatives for community policing are putting the cart before the horse, or just setting a cart there with no horse in evidence. Policing will never be the answer. Armed guards occupying impoverished areas, throwing the locals in jail, and further ostracizing them from society will not solve poo poo. Social workers are far closer to what a police force should be doing to improve the community. Drug rehab programs. Public works projects, funding community rejuvenation programs (and hiring locals). Getting children and their parents educated. Proper sexual health education, free condoms, free birth control, free abortion. All that can help. But there will never be a way to figure out how to convict a 17 year old of a felony for drug possession in a positive manner, or how to get a woman off the streets by publishing her prostitution arrest in the police blotter. In fact, the Coast Guard Auxiliary exists because the coast guard figured this poo poo out already. The coast guard aux sees a violation? Friendly reminder, free boat inspections, patrols to let people know they're doing something illegal/dangerous. IF the coast guard proper were to witness that stuff, it's fines and armed boarding. Shockingly enough, boaters like seeing the aux. It's fun, rather than threatening. DARPA fucked around with this message at 21:31 on Feb 3, 2015 |

Vahakyla posted:Except the loving CG Auxiliary is still enforcement. What do you think they do? They enforce a law. They just can't enforce it all the way given some resistance. They are still law enforcement and if their enforcement is not enough, around comes the full time Guard with guns. They aren't law enforcement at all. That's the entire point. They're fully civilian. Their goal is to promote safety, not to make arrests, or write tickets. Just like if you have a social worker dealing with a drug user compared to a police officer the drug user's life will fare much better dealing with unarmed person who won't be dragging him to jail.

Drawing a weapon to use the tactical flashing to walk through an apartment building doesn't just seem unreasonable, but I think reveals systemic failure of the NYPD training program to instill a proper respect for firearms. My shooting range experience is (hopefully) far less than a police officer and the obvious safety issues wielding a weapon just to use a flashlight defies reason. The more I think about the situation the less it seems like a freak accident and the more it seems like the officer pointed his weapon at the victim and pulled the trigger.

No, you're the first person I called, should I have called someone else?" Looks like he didn't text the union rep. Just argued with his partner about calling it in to protect his own job. NYTimes posted:For four minutes, a New York City police officer who had just fired his gun into a darkened housing project stairwell argued with his partner over whether to tell their superiors about the shot. I also heard an NPR segment claiming after the argument ended Liang proceeded to walk down the flight of stairs to Gurly and instead of rendering first aid, simply stepped over the body into the hallway.
