Tuba, quit being obtuse...this is about hiring standards...

Did the standards not exist before, and therefore then it was OK for cops to be thugs who beat people for fun?
Did some BRPD cop ever beat your fat, privileged, stoner arse in the past, Tuba?

The central issue at hand is that despite Valdry’s lack of conviction for negligent homicide, he was arrested for a felony. BRPD policy stipulates that an academy applicant is disqualified if the “applicant has been arrested for a felony or misdemeanor (expunged arrests still apply).”
This seems pretty cut and dry. Why the frick was this dude able to enroll in the first place since he should've been deemed ineligible?

We can probably get the application numbers and size of the current police academy class and figure that one out pretty quick.
Applications bottomed out after the Sterling case and I don’t think there has been any significant increase since then. Which means they are picking from the dregs to fill the class.

I agree that an arrest shouldn't disqualify someone because they may be innocent however this dude lied to the police. How can you ever put your trust in this guy. Also, there was once a high ranking officer with the last name Valdry at BRPD. He was basically useless and not very smart.

“Well, this guy was only arrested for negligent homicide, not actually convicted. I suppose we can waive the qualifications THIS time.”

Well, of course not. He’s outraged on behalf of black folks that aren’t outraged because it’s their buddies that run the entire thing in BR. It’s quite the conundrum for him, but he doesn’t think that far ahead.

I’m explaining their mindset, not excusing it.
They haven’t come to the realization that a lot of hiring managers have come to which is that hiring a shite employee is worse for you than not hiring anyone for that slot.

Tuba doesn’t have a problem with bad cops; they’re all bad to him. He just doesn’t think there should be any law enforcement at all.

Spot on.

Or….
Hear me out….
They don’t give a flying frick.
Remember, these poor aggrieved leaders have won awards for their work. SpidermanTuba, who is one that likes to feign injustice, just had one of his political heroes, Eric Holder, give Murphy Paul a huge award for his work. Also was praised for his fight against all the White Supremacy here in Baton Rouge.
This entire cluster frick is completely predictable at every level, down to what the usual suspects will do and say in response.

The first time in history a officer finishes the academy already on the Brady list?

Sure, an arrest doesn’t mean guilty. But it does mean suspicion of guilt. You don’t get arrested for no reason. He shot her in the back. He’s at least an idiot doing things he should not be doing, which resulted in the death of a woman.
And lying about it. At best he is a liar with poor firearms safety. That doesn’t instill confidence from the community.

Holy frick I gotta get out of this town!

Of course not. I'm white. I did have one tell me that if I were black he would trick my pot dealer into murdering me, though.

That's called "practice" for when they lie under oath to a judge later on.

Why not? The vast majority of people allowed to carry a weapon in public are not required to undergo any firearms safety training whatsoever. Why is it concerning a cop is poorly trained in firearms safety when almost any citizen can pull out a handgun anytime they want to save the day?

Democrat governor, democrat mayor, democrat chief of police and democrat district attorney complicit in expunging records of a democrat candidate.
Who would have thought?

Being found guilty means a jury believed you did it beyond a reasonable doubt.
Being arrested means there was probable cause to believe you committed the offense.
I’d think probable cause is enough to eliminate someone from being an applicant
