That's a given. That's why I said "on the other end of things".... For those sort of people who think that the end justify the means. I.e. "he didn't have drugs on him, but I KNOW he's a dealer so I planted them to get him off the street"

If your primary concern is that the bad guys go to jail, so you'd look the other way if it meant bad guys going to jail, then this sort of action means a lot of actual bad guys may go free.


I'm fine with some guilty being released, especially if they were minor drug possessions.

Maybe the negative press will get these depts to clean up their act (pfft). Freeing convicted criminals can't be a good look.
 
They care about the "**** the police" angle, not him.

There's also something to be said about the George Floyd protests not being so much about the experience of George Floyd, specifically, as it was about the way that so very many people, especially black people, have been unreasonably and unjustly screwed over by the police. "**** the police when they openly commit serious crimes whereever they feel like, knowing that they almost certainly won't be held accountable" is actually a reasonable angle to care about.
 
2 NYPD cops raped a 15 year old girl who was participating in a police youth cadets program.

Two NYPD cops raped a vulnerable teen member of the police youth program, cruelly taking advantage of the underage girl to “satisfy their depraved interests,” an internal department judge has ruled.

The officers’ “shocking professional and sexual misconduct” included behavior from one of them that “would cause any responsible adult, let alone a parent, to recoil in horror,” the NYPD judge wrote in a scathing ruling made public last week.

Then-Officers Sanad Musallam and Yaser Shohatee “targeted’’ the girl, who was 15 at the time and a member of the NYPD’s Explorers program, according to the disciplinary documents.

Musallam and Shohatee, now 34 and 41, respectively, separately raped her amid dozens of phone chats and hundreds of text exchanges, which included “sexually explicit” photos, between 2015 and 2016, the records claim.

Apparently it takes 4 years to fire a couple of pedophile cops. No criminal charges have been pursued for either the rapes or the possession of child pornography.

Two Cops Were Arrested After One Of Them Pistol-Whipped And Choked An Unarmed Man

Two police officers in Colorado were arrested Tuesday after disturbing video showed one of them using his gun to repeatedly hit an unarmed man on his head, choke him, and threaten to shoot him, as the man bled from his head and pleaded for his life.


Warning: The body cam video is really hard to watch



During Tuesday's press conference, [police chief] Wilson attempted to reassure the community that her department was focused on reform and training and that officers would be fired “if this is how they police.”

“This was an anomaly,” she said.

An anomaly? Elijah McClain would like a word. Oh, he can't your officers killed him. Maybe that black family your officers held at gunpoint would like to disagree?

It very much is starting to seem like "this is how you police".

Oh please - how is it unnecessarily violent? I mean to paraphrase the police officers: "Excuse me Sir, could you please get on your face whilst my colleague is pushing you backwards onto the ground, thank you for you co-operation".

"Also please ignore the gun pressed against your head whilst my colleague is yelling "I'll shoot you" into your face. We of course expect you to act rationally and calm in this situation."
 
California Highway Patrol did a hit-and-run on a 14 year old child.

A mother is seeking justice for her teenage son who showed up at his home with serious injuries after allegedly being hit by a California Highway Patrol officer who drove off in East Los Angeles.

Isaac Cota, 14, was riding his bicycle in East L.A. at around 9 p.m. on June 27 during a community car show near Whittier Boulevard and Williamson Avenue when the incident happened, according to his mother, Sara Cervantes.

Brooklyn DA Releases Massive Trove Of Internal Documents On NYPD Misconduct

“Mass protests and organizing over police brutality last summer led New York lawmakers to repeal the state’s secrecy law on police disciplinary records,” said Gideon Oliver, a public records attorney who negotiated the release on behalf of Gothamist/WNYC. “This is just the kind of mass disclosure that every prosecutor’s office in our state should do to meet that promise of transparency.”

Whole lot of rotten apples out there.
 
Five Miami Beach cops charged after pummeling two men in hotel lobby. Video released

A mob of cops beat a handcuffed, face-down man before turning their attention and attacking a bystander that was filming the arrest. Hotel lobby cameras captured one cop kicking the fully restrained person in the head on 3 different occasions. Body cameras captures another cop tackling the video recording bystander without provocation before several other cops join in the extrajudicial beating.

The man video recording was arrested and charged with impeding an officer and resisting arrest with violence before the video was reviewed and charges dropped.

I guess the cops did learn something from the Floyd murder, beat and arrest anyone who dares to record their illegal use of excessive force.

Jesus. The guy is on the ground, complying (granted, after running) and seems to be under control. Then another cop shows up... then another... and another.... and another... and another... and another... and another... and another.... and another... and another... and another....

It's like there's a clown car of cops just off screen.

I had no idea how many officers there would be when I read your post. Criminal violence on their part aside, that was damned funny.

But I guess if they start beating up bystanders filming, it would discourage that practice. Smart. Evil, but smart.

Indeed - was just going to post that he couldn't roll onto his face as the other cop was pulling back on his arm, preventing him rolling over...

Holy hell that was a tough watch. Only 5 charged? Again, the cops that don't stop their buddies should be at least somewhat responsible, too.

"A good cop that stops other cops from brutalizing people" is so rare it may as well be a cryptid like the sasquatch or Nessie.
