Cops sometimes worse than the people they are suppoosed to protect us from.
The eight cops involved are among a slate of NYPD officers who have already been convicted of crimes including official misconduct, unlawful searches, perjuring themselves on the stand and even drug dealing. Those convictions led to defense attorneys to send letters to the five New York borough prosecutors asking for reviews in crimes where people had been convicted based on testimony or evidence gathered by those same officers. In Manhattan alone, there are more than 1,100 such cases, the New York Times reports
I bet both of the guys who were hospitalized with gunshot wounds thought that being armed while walking the mean streets of Saratoga Springs would make them safer.
A leashed dog “ran through the baggage,” turning up nothing illegal, Wright said. Police body camera footage shows officers searching several bags in the bus’ underbelly storage. The driver received a warning.
Found nothing, meaning they had no reason. They were assuming, based on…
Cherokee County Sheriff Steve Mueller said the officers “didn’t do anything wrong” and could not have known the races of the people inside the bus when they pulled it over.
Alabama woman arrested and jailed for three days for using drugs while pregnant. She wasn’t pregnant, but the cops didn’t bother to check. Apparently the county is notorious for arresting pregnant women.
Was gonna ask if she was black, but then realised - wait - she’s preggers, which of course translates to future welfare queen, amirite?
No (pregnant) stone left unturned, I say!
Looking up Stacey Freeman under google images to check anyway, I took immediate note of the “parenting can be fun” blurbs. I’m sure she’s good with sharing a name with someone who actually isn’t a parent, but maybe not to the way she was treated.
Or really any GOP-run state? Sure, some might be grosser than others (looking at you, FL, TX, Wisconson’s SC), I spose…
Boise is the big urban center in Idaho, so it is compartively “liberal”. If the guy had been a police chief in, say, Idaho Falls, he might have been outed as not having White Supremacist ties.
