But they're the only ones who should have guns.

Considering the area I’m not shocked

Honestly, he should be executed. I'm one who defends police officers more than most, but I also believe they should be held to a higher standard when committing wrongdoing. Straight up lying to throw someone in jail should be punished very, very severely.
Agree. Not like he was just giving BS traffic citations. A DUI is a serious offense that can totally damage someone in a lot of ways.

Part of Commerce goes into Banks County.
And yep, if you are on 441 going into Banks County do the speed limit.

This kind of shite is exactly why I try to stay within the City of Atlanta proper, or at least Dekalb County, as much as possible. Those fancy distant suburb / rural cops don't have enough real work to do, so they manufacture drama.
St. Tammany is another good example.

The guy had bloodshot eyes, erratic behavior, and there was a lingering scent of alcohol present…. Posting a zero.zero just means he had another substance in his system that would prohibit the legal operation of a vehicle.
It sounds like you are looking for something where nothing is there bud.

Ruin his life?? Nope. I’d sue the shite out of the county and make sure that fricktard gets fired

Cops going to jail for civil right violations. Bank it.

the Intoxilyzer 9000
The Intoxilyzer 8000 was an impressive piece of technology for sure, but the introduction of the Intoxilyzer 9000 was a true game changer. Changed the science of DUI immediately and irrevocably forever.

Roswell Georgia police got caught doing the same thing a few years back. When people would blow triple zeroes they would then pivot to claiming drivers were on drugs and not alcohol. Crooked to the core.
That was worse.
The cop was a self proclaimed expert testimony. He claimed to be able to visually detect the use of marijuana. He claimed to be more accurate than blood tests.
He was hubris personified and demolished more lives that got in his path than your average terrorist plane hijacker.
