Controversial encounters between law-enforcement and civilians - the omnibus thread

Dashcam footage shows cops performing an 11 minute vaginal cavity search on a woman

Thank god that dangerous criminal and her 0.02 ounces of the devil’s weed are off the street! The police would have gotten away scot free if it weren’t for those darn k̶i̶d̶s̶ dashcams!

And in Ohio, just another black man getting beaten by cops in a routine traffic stop.

That’s just one bad apple.

That’s just one bad apple.

That’s just one bad apple.

That’s just a few bad apples. And it was the guy’s own fault for living there anyway.

Another vicious dick beating a guy at a traffic stop while his dumb ass partner plays pocket pool. Hmm, two on one. Why not cuff the guy and put in car.

Because that is not what they became cops to do.

At least it wasn’t a no-knock warrant.

Just one bad apple.
Who am I kidding? You all know where I’m going with this.

This is fucking disgusting. It’s sexual assault. Fucking rapist mother fuckers.

They get away with everything else, and have boot lickers to defend their actions.

They know that they almost certainly won’t get caught, if they are caught, they won’t be indicted, and if they are indicted, there will be at least one person on the jury who is a boot licker and will refuse to convict.

That’s the pattern that they’ve been following. If you are a cop, you should feel like you have license to get away with anything, because you do.

And every time they get away with it, the cops become just that much bolder in their criminal interactions with the public.

In the officers’ defense, they may have been frightened by what was in there.

This thread is almost three years old now, and one of the incidents that impelled me to create it was the South Carolina incident where state trooper Sean Groubert told a black motorist to get his drivers license, and shot him as he was in the process of complying with the order.

Groubert pleaded guilty last year to “assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature.” He was sentenced yesterday. The judge handed down a 12-year sentence, but suspended it to five years. Groubert gets credit for the 17 months he’s already served.

Thanks for creating this thread. It has been eyeopening to see these few “bad apples”.

I don’t use Twitter but there needs to be a ‘#Just a bad apple’ attached to all these stories that get shared.

BuzzFeed is putting it out on Twitter right now.

What the fuck.

What are you confused about? I was happy to read that this guy got jail time for this…

I don’t know what that is that mhendo linked to, but here is the original dash cam video that led to the assault charge. The shooting is about 40 seconds in. This interaction was one of the clear examples (to me, at least) that there is a problem in the relationship between the police in this country and the populace; there is no reason for the officer to be this afraid.

I’m confused because I don’t think ii was enough time. What will he really do? Three years? Less because of parole and good behavior?

12 goes down to 5, and subtract 17 months (1.6 years)…
yup.
