Protect & Serve

[indago]

From ABC7 Los Angeles 23 June 2015:
------------------------------------------------------------
On Tuesday, Deputy Zach Ropos was on duty when he came across a girl named Gabrielle operating a lemonade stand. Gabrielle's family had been facing financial difficulties, and the girl had been saving up money from the stand in hopes of buying an iPad to use for schoolwork and games. But instead of just paying for a lemonade, the deputy decided he wanted to help Gabrielle achieve her goal. Ropos was going to give Gabrielle an older iPad he had at home, but when he found out that it no longer worked, he decided to buy a brand new one for her instead.

Police detectives threatened a 12-year-old witness to make him offer false testimony in a murder case and fabricated statements by him, according to a federal lawsuit filed Thursday by two brothers who spent decades in prison for a crime they didn't commit. ...Both lawsuits allege detectives helped fabricate the witness' trial testimony and falsified investigative reports. ...The lawsuits seek financial compensation and damages. Jackson is already receiving more than $1 million from the state for wrongful imprisonment, while the Bridgemans are receiving more than $1.6 million.

They've got the money now to fight back against lying cops, and any compensation they receive should come directly out of the police budget as a reminder of what happens when cops lie.

A state trooper accused of forcing female motorists into sexual acts in exchange for dropping traffic charges used Craigslist to offer "traffic stop sex," according to records released Monday that highlight the women's fear of reporting him.

Trooper Bryan Lee also sent multiple Facebook messages to a female passenger he photographed without her shirt on, including one that let her know he'd been keeping an eye on her, a detail included in hundreds of pages of records the Ohio State Highway Patrol released in response to media requests.

From The Associated Press 18 August 2015:
----------------------------------------------------------------
A new report says the 600 shots police fired at the chaotic end to a California bank robbery that left a hostage dead were excessive and unnecessary, with some officers only firing their weapons because other officers were shooting.

The report released Monday by the nonprofit Police Foundation also found some Stockton police officers opened fire with their colleagues standing right in front of them.

NYPD trying to enforce the NO SMOKING IN PUBLIC LAW on a guy that knows his the law and won't lay down and just "confess" to the crime of smoking.

LEO suddenly trails a driver for a couple of miles and finally pulls the man over. The LEO initially says it's because the man failed to turn on his turn signal ...100ft before a turn... then asks the man for his papers.
When he returns the driver ask why he followed him for so long the LEO says,
"because you made direct contact with me and held on to it as i was passing you.."

man-o-man
it's also well known if you don't make good eye contact with LEOs then that's also considered "suspicious".
lose lose if
even if etheir were a REAL offense or even probably cause, or reasonable suspicion.

rev. Your hatred is so obvious about cops. THIS VIDEO IS TWO YEARS AGO. But, like typical whiners. You simply couldn't resist bragging about how much you hate Police officers, and use your LIBERAL BLANKET to describe them all.

Post videos about supposed cops abuse - ignore cops getting shot and killed. That's why when I see nitwits "reaching" even the slightest bit, and they get shot, I laugh at them. For example, look at this idiot, in a wheelchair no less, won't listen. I laughed when I watched him slowly fall out of the chair and onto the ground. Game over for being an asshole. And then folks get angry, because of "abuse". Idiots.

Post videos about supposed cops abuse - ignore cops getting shot and killed. ...

Anyone who shoots a cop is treated as a criminal, tracked down, captured, jailed, tried, prison or death sentence.
as it should be.
no controversy there.

When a cop abuses his powers or even kills unlawfully.
to often nothing is done,
or they get paid leave then return to regular duty,
or an internal investigation with maybe a move to a desk job.
or in extreme cases they're asked to retire... with full benefits.
rarely "bad apple" LEOs are brought to trial and convicted.

Is that as it should be?

Then add to the above we see people LIKE yourself upset at those who point out the corruption.
As if we've committed a crime of some kind.
And worst motives applied to those showing the abuse and they are called names.
how dare someone point out possible LEO abuses that seem to happen on a regular basis and are left unaddressed .

But no names or bad motives sited for the bad LEOs or even neg comments about their ON camera bad behavior.
Even when whole police Depts seem to cover for the "bad apples".

What's wrong with this picture?
