Every time I see Goatse, I think of Maureen. That's the last thing I saw. Before I blacked out. The sight of that man's anus.

In case anyone was wondering whether Canadian police are as hosed up as American ones.

TL;DR Canadian trans streamer gets swatted and unlike every other situation where the cops go "whoops mb" they seized all her poo poo and are actively investigating the threat to kill all cis people in Toronto.

Part of the threat was that the calls impersonating her claimed to have killed her mother. They interviewed her mother as part of the investigation but somehow that wasn't an immediate tip-off that maybe this was bullshit.

it seems like most swatting situations the cops put the victim in cuffs but let them go immediately when they found out they were had. I don’t think I’ve seen one where they book the victim afterwards.

In America they just kill them which obviates the need to arrest them.

“While attempting to arrest the man, he confronted the officers with a weapon and an officer discharged a service weapon,” said Halifax Regional Police, in a news release.
Police say the man died on the scene.

Taking bets on what the “weapon” the guy had with which the officers were confronted was. Even odds on a baseball bat, hockey stick, or some other piece of sporting gear.

Couldn’t find a perfect thread for this but I thought it was interesting enough to want to share and this seemed the closest fit. It’s some cross between bad local media reporting, left punching, people being held responsible for not predicting the future, and courts.

Anyway, a local bail fund bailed out a guy who went on to murder his wife. Really dire and sad no doubt. Bail had been set at $20,000 and they put up 10%. Who’s fault could this be?

quote:

“The law is permissive such that the court could choose to ask for the full sum of the bail, or not. By bailing out a suspect as a third party, you make yourself subject to this possibility,” Elisabeth Shepard from the D.A.’s office said. “We have asked that PFF pay the full bail sum, the remainder of which is $18k. It will not require a civil action, just for a judge to agree with our motion. I am not sure when that will take place at this time.”


Ok. Well, that’s the DA. “Progressive reformer” or not that’s the DA and her boss is looking ahead to a tough re-election.

quote:

the “murder of Racheal Angel Abraham was entirely preventable. The district attorney, the court, and the police all agreed her murderer should not be on the street, but a left-wing interest group chose to bail him out anyway. Rachael should be alive today. Instead, she died a violent death because radical activists let political agendas get in the way of what is best for public safety.”

The republican gubernatorial candidate weighs in

quote:

the suspect “wouldn’t have been on the streets if he hadn’t been bailed out by a far-left organization that wants to abolish the police.”

“He tried to kill the mother of his children once and then succeeded because left-wing extremists served as his accomplices,”

Ok. Well that’s the former conservative democrat running for governor as an independent.

quote:

Mr. Adan was an ongoing threat and should’ve remained behind bars at least until his trial. As Governor, Tina would welcome proposals to prevent similar tragedies from occurring in the future.

As I’m sure you can guess from the vague nothingness that’s the democrat gubernatorial candidate.

Lost in all of this is any question of why the judge set bail at $20,000 or what would have been different had he had the $2000 to put up on his own

That's the loving thing about cash bail. If someone's "too dangerous to leave on the street" then it's not like a few thousand dollars is going to make them not kill anyone. The original purpose of cash bail, as an insurance against someone there'd otherwise be no reason not to leave on the street just leaving town instead of coming to their hearing, has been long forgotten in favor of bail as a punishment for being the kind of person cops arrest/a way to make crime legal for rich people.

I saw some Reddit post where a lady dug out her old high school yearbook, and pinpointed that cop as her bully who was a piece of poo poo to her then. Literally highlighting that she was an aggressive rear end in a top hat then and still is now. Goes to show you what types of people become cops.

New twist on the trolly problem?


https://www.denverpost.com/2022/09/17/platteville-police-train-hits-vehicle/

quote:

A woman in police custody in Weld County was seriously injured Friday night when the patrol vehicle she had been placed in — which was parked on railroad tracks — was struck by a train.

The incident happened about 7:30 p.m. near U.S. 285 and Weld County Road 38, just north of Platteville, according to a Colorado Bureau of Investigation news release.

Police were responding to an initial report of road rage involving a firearm in Fort Lupton when the train collision incident unfolded, the bureau said.

A Platteville officer located a vehicle and made a traffic stop, with the driver, a 20-year-old Greeley woman, pulling over just beyond the railroad tracks, according to the bureau. The officer stopped on the railroad tracks behind the pulled-over vehicle.

Two Fort Lupton officers arrived, and the woman, a felony menacing suspect, was removed from her vehicle and placed in the Platteville patrol car parked on the tracks.

“While the officers cleared the suspect vehicle as part of the investigation, a train traveling northbound struck the PPD patrol car,” the release said.

The woman was taken to a Greeley hospital after the crash. Details on her injuries were not released.

Fort Lupton police are investigating details that led to the initial call for police assistance. The State Patrol is investigating the woman’s injuries, and the Colorado Bureau of Investigation has been asked to investigate the woman’s injuries.
