Muh Blue Wall of Silence! Zachary Officer Turned In By Coworker For Tazing Handcuffed Man

ZACHARY- Daulton Rainwater, a two-year rookie with the Zachary Police Department is facing discipline after he tased a man who was handcuffed back in April.
The WBRZ Investigative Unit obtained documents that show Rainwater omitted that detail when he filed the report that night. Rainwater showed up at the Best Western Hotel for a disturbance and charged Phillip Lilly with disturbing the peace and resisting arrest. While Lilly was detained, he was tased.
"The suspect was handcuffed," Zachary Police Attorney Henry Olinde said. "He started misbehaving and was tased by Officer Rainwater. The question of course is, if you tase a suspect in handcuffs, does it violate the excessive force policy that virtually every police department has."
The problems surrounding the incident came to light two weeks ago when one of Rainwater's co-workers turned him in for a policy violation.
"It came in from another Zachary Police Officer," Olinde said.
This week, Rainwater was the target of a pre-disciplinary hearing. According to Olinde, when Rainwater was questioned about the incident, he admitted to the tasing. Because supervisors have to sign off on reports that are turned in, Olinde said he could not rule out that disciplinary measures could go beyond just Rainwater. Until decisions are made, Rainwater is still patrolling.

Cops go out of their way to hide dirty cops, right, Libtards?

Bigger problem is leaving a man handcuffed for 4 months.

sounds like some other coworkers didn't report the incident...

Man, you’re stupid. But that’s expected from someone that writes “libtards” and uses politics as an identifier I guess

Needs to happen more often.

Not a libtard, but yes they do.
This is a highly unusual case.
I applaud the officer that turned in the criminal in blue

I don’t know the details but if you are cuffed and still bucking around and biting and spitting and head butting and kicking, im fine with tasing the motherfricker.

So this other cop waited almost 4 months to rat on his fellow officer?

Checks out.
Zachary is a good, small department in a suburban city with very low crime rates.
Experience is tough to come by quickly in these small agencies. But morality should always be present.
Need more details to form my opinion. I hope the officer isn’t going to be rail roaded. His old man was a good career cop. Taught me a lot when I first got into the business.
