| This is why people distrust the police.... (Posted on 4/19/12 at 9:00 am)
quote:
Whenever I read a news report about police assaulting a homeless guy or unleashing a stream of pepper spray on peaceful protesters, I always wonder where the good cops are. I mean, we're constantly assured that most police officers are good cops
The incident:
quote:
The two Ridgefield Park Sergeants are never heard refuting the claims that they punched the 22 year-old man as he was waiting for an ambulance. Even worse, Kyle was never charged, nor arrested, for any offense.
The cop who intervened:
quote:
Eventually Tasca was able to pry the punching Ridgefield Park officer off Kyle,
quote:
You know what comes next, right? Yeah. After physically intervening against two violent colleagues-in-blue, Tasca'a job is at stake. She faces a departmental trial on charges that she's "psychologically unfit" to be a police officer.

I want to be a lawyer that keeps police in check. I would assume it will be easier said than done, but even if I can keep a few in check over bull shite like this it'll be worth it. I just want them to know they aren't untouchable.

Can't have an officer with a conscience. What would happen if she was ever forced to cover up a bad shoot? Can't have weaklings like that on the force.

\ABB We don't know the whole story. Let's wait until all the facts come out. He was resisting. He didn't follow the officer's commands. The officer felt threatened. /ABB
