Basically, resisting arrest needs to stop being a defcon 1 level crisis for officers. Like is the dude a suspected serial killer? If so, yeah, you don't let him get away. If he just has some misdemenor warrants out, you follow him or shit just arrest him at his home. What this should've been is them adding on resisting arrest to his record, probably bumping up his warrant enough to where they'd actually go up to his house and arrest him soon after. Like, I think there's definitely a point where it's fine for an officer to feel threatened and use deadly force to protect themselves. But somehow despite the overabundance of militarized training, cops keep coming out as whiny, trigger-happy bitches who immediately escalate whenever the slightest bit of adversity comes into the picture.

Yes, it was an accident and probably should just be manslaughter. Yes, dude could've probably saved his life by not fleeing. Both made mistakes, but like almost every fucking time, the cop's the one who gets to live with their mistake while the civilian is the one who dies for theirs. The police should be the one who take the greater risk and face the harsher consequences for their actions. That they don't is basically at the heart of every problem with law enforcement nowadays.

all of that sensible-

Driving to a lit area is the best thing the soldier could have done tbh.

Maybe

but once he stopped and realized that the cops had mistaken his “common sense” as “evading” and got their panties in a twist

he should have immediately complied and he would not have been pepper-sprayed

Arrest warrant for minor parking/moving violations?

Just send letter telling them govt will garnish wages if they do not show up and do it if they fail to appear.

if not mistaken - the kid last night already had a warrant out and failed to appear- so aside from the expired tags (which is a non-issue) he was going to be arrested for the failure to appear

then he resisted (why- I have no idea- he would have been out in less than 24 hrs)
and jumped in his car which was really really stupid

and i think it is just as stupid as the stupid cop who shot him

both of those stupid actions cost him his life

why not just take responsibility?

why are cops the only ones that need to mind their actions?
when the public decides to place demands that people take responsibility for their own actions, their own criminal acts- maybe the wrongful deaths will stop?

The point is that him having a warrant doesn't automatically mean that keeping him from leaving is a huge priority. Just go to his house and arrest him. Or follow him casually until he stops. The officers gave no indication that they thought he was a threat to public safety. That doesn't mean he "gets away with it", since you can tack on resisting arrest to his existing warrant. That's not hard to implement at all.

why are cops the only ones that need to mind their actions?

Um... cops basically have to mind their actions least of anyone right now due to all of the legal protections. If you're talking about what they should do, damned straight should cops have a higher level of accountability for their actions. Not only are they the ones initiating and maintaining the interaction, but they are the ones who are representing their government. Cops basically have no excuse to use deadly force in majority of cases. They can't be trusted with the responsibility if they are going to act like pussies despite millions of dollars in training and protective gear. A regular joe isn't supposed to be perfect in pressure situations, but that's basically the main requirement to be a cop.

PD did not close ranks and protect the officer.

They threw her to the wolves instead, protecting the good old boys and flying the thin blue line to celebrate their impunity.

well he shouldnt have been killed

saying he is accountable -or should be accountable for his actions does not = that he should be punished

my point is that EVERYONE is accountable or partly responsible for his own actions and your own actions contribute to the end result

he also contributed to his fate - why is everyone afraid to state this fact: your actions CONTRIBUTE to the incident.

When will the media begin to advise viewers, “whenever you get pulled over- DO EXACTLY AS THE COPS TELL YOU TO DO!”

Then if you get abused you can sue the cops afterward!

Why do we never hear ANYONE SAY THIS?

Give up your rights and then sue and hope they don't lie. The cops aren't all powerful if you know your rights you'd know that. Even in a traffic stop there is only certain info you have to disclose

sure, just go to his house - but if the kid resisted in the street - whose to say he wont resist in his own home and then those evil cops will be lambasted for daring to go to a private residence...there will always be a reason for the cops to make concessions

but never for a citizen to follow the law and comply?

and the law is set up for ONLY the cops to follow rules

criminals/civilians dont have to abide by any rules when in the commission of crimes
only the cops face the scrutiny of where the incident led to - should the incident turn deadly

if a cop approaches a vehicle who had tried to fled and the cops stroll up to the window politely and treat the evader with kid gloves- they are out in the open to getting ar15’d by a criminal who gives two shits about rules

so either approach the vehicle safely/aggressively and demand to see compliance (hands up/slow moves/no sudden moves,etc)

or risk getting mowed down

lose/lose

too careless you die
too aggressive you offend the public

everyone records these stops now

just obey some simple directives - DO YOUR PART

let the cops be assholes and violate your rights
you then use the recorded incident to sue and get paid

its not rocket science

but refusing or arguing or having a dialogue “why?” “I didnt do anything” “i know my rights!” Is just fucking retarded and dangerous to your own safety

i never allow any cops to get their adrenaline going and i have been cursed at and called slurs

i calmly get all my windows open, dome lights on, hands on steering wheel, yessir the motherfucker to death and do exactly as ordered

if i need to provide id/insurance i ASK for permission to

”take my right hand and reach for my wallet in this compartment ?” And wait for an ok

somewhere around this time- the cops adrenaline subsides and he begins to act normally
”hey man you didnt pull over immediately-why?”

next thing you know- the whole thing is over

absolutely not rocket science

He might, but is that a problem? Not really. There's still no reason to believe he's a danger to anybody. Resisting arrest isn't in or of itself some capital offense. It's a fucking misdemeanor.

This is the second time you've tried to push for some equivalency in responsibility. Cops and civilians aren't two species learning to co-exist. Cops serve us, not the other way around. They made the choice to be our servants, and that comes with asymmetrical risk and responsibility. If they can't handle that, they can quit, become civilians again and enjoy the asymmetrical relationship from the other side. Being an officer is a job, not an elevated social class.

and the law is set up for ONLY the cops to follow rules

Okay, I'm getting a bit worried. Do you really think cops are usually disadvantaged by the law? Do you really think of the millions of police interactions that happen every year, that cops are the ones getting in trouble? Like we can debate ideals, but if you're trying to argue this from a position of fact, it's fundamentally wrong. Many, many laws are set up to give police the benefit of the doubt and to shield them from liability. This isn't even just in cases of wrongful death. Police get away with a lot of crimes, from small ones like traffic violations to big ones like domestic violence.

Back to ideals, cops are the ones who should get raked over the fire in terms of media coverage. Civilians serve at their own behest, and the law is made to punish them. The media (and public opinion) is there to hold the government, of which police are representatives, accountable. A guy like Wright can be a criminal or the scum of the Earth or whatever -- who cares? Dude's dead. But how the officer acts matters because it determines what relationship we have with our law enforcement and what standard or training and rationality we can hold them to.

if a cop approaches a vehicle who had tried to fled and the cops stroll up to the window politely and treat the evader with kid gloves- they are out in the open to getting ar15’d by a criminal who gives two shits about rules

That's the job. If they don't want to take that risk, they need to quit. Blues Lives Don't Matter as much as civilian lives. That doesn't mean that they have to throw their lives away, but it does mean they can't use the same fear standards that regular people use.

Of course, being a cop isn't actually that risky. Cops are way more likely to die due to health complications from their shitty lifestyles/work schedules than anything to do with criminals gunning them down.

I think the issues that come from these incidents are not a matter of whether each of them as one single, isolated incident was an accident or not or whether the victim put himself or herself in that precarious position by not complying with police. Each individual case, there is merit in those arguments. What’s troubling is the big picture. Why does it happen to black people at seemingly such an alarming clip compared to white people? Surely, the argument isn’t that NO white people ever resists arrest or ever tries to flee from cops. Why is it when it’s a black person, there is a higher chance of that person getting shot and/or killed?

That’s the whole idea behind the systemic racial bias. In this particular case, is this police officer so flustered by it being a black man that all of her 25 years of training went out the window when trying to differentiate between a taser and a gun? Would she have been much more calm had he been white? The whole idea of systemic racism is that it’s embedded in the culture, in our society, in the criminal justice system. It’s learned behavior but becomes almost naturally predisposed behavior by so many people. That’s what these social justice movements are trying to get to the root of.

I want to believe that it was an accident, an honest mistake. I’d like to believe had he complied with police, he’d be alive today. But I don’t know if I do. I’m reminded of the Elijah McClain death and I don’t know that a black person who does comply always makes a difference in saving his life. With every case of “accidents” of police killing black people, it gets harder to believe they’re accidental.

I think it's important to distinguish between a person putting themselves in a position where there's an increased risk of something bad happening to them and a person being responsible for something happening to them. If a person walks down a dark alley and gets mugged, they put themselves in a bad position but are in no way responsible for the mugger's actions. Same with flipping a person off in traffic and that person chasing you down and shooting you. Or taking a drink from a stranger at a club and being assaulted. Should we teach people to avoid putting themselves in these situations? Yes, and folks teach that all the time. That's the point of "the talk" that you've almost certainly heard black people mentioning they have with their kids. Don't confuse the political pressure against police actions with a lack of individual push on directing behavior. They're different things, and you can't use the latter to try to mask the former.

Police aren't entitled to use force (especially deadly force) to detain someone who isn't posing a danger to others and who isn't wanted for a violent crime. That's the full stop. Until that's established and hammered home to every cop in the country, there's no room to talk about anything the non-violent civilians do.

So far in 2021 (as of 3/31) There have been 213 civilians shot by police in the US.

Yes, unarmed, who were in initially non-violent situations, and who did nothing criminally violent.

Now do the black percentage count. And do the white count too, because I’m sure some percentage will also include Latino and middle eastern.

“Some” white people still don’t understand why there is such a problem. The issue isn’t when police are in a situation with an armed criminal, whether they’re black, white, orange or purple. The BLM movement and other social justice groups wonder why when a person is black that wearing a hoodie or having a cell phone or a candy bar in their hand compels some police officers to imagine they’re all of a sudden in a life or death situation in which that they must use lethal force.

It is certainly tragic when that happens but I don't believe the officers woke up that morning and thought to themselves "I want to shoot a black guy today". I suspect there are literally tens of thousands of officer stops every day in the US and occasionally human errors happen. Again, It's tragic, but probably inevitable that occasional mistakes will be made.

I think you’re still missing the point. Fixing the systemic racial bias isn’t really about the intent of any individual person. It’s not really intent at all. It’s trying to fix the root of the racial bias that has become second nature to some individuals in the system. Scientific studies they’ve done with babies have evidenced that racial bias is a learned behavior. You’re not born with racial bias. But that learned behavior becomes fully integrated so it’s essentially natural. It’s why the average white person in their car will lock their car doors when three teenage black kids or three Latino teens wearing hip hop clothes walk by but would not if it were three white teenagers or three white Asian kids wearing the same type of clothes. The color of the skin elicits the response. And that’s what many believe is the same natural response of some, maybe many white police officers throughout the country. Not just about intent. I mean, I’m sure there’s some small percentage who are white supremicists, just like the small percentage of the entire population. But to fix the systemic problem, you have to try to address the ones who aren’t blatantly and intentionally bias but still have the bias.

What the social justice agenda wants is the response to be the same regardless of skin color. It’s not about not seeing the skin color. When white people say they’re “color blind,” it’s one of the biggest jokes regarding opinions on racism. We don’t mind that you see the color of our skin. We want you to see it, appreciate the difference, but still not judge us because of it. When there is fairness applied across the board because it’s second nature NOT to have racial bias, then we’ve made progress.

no matter what the 20-year-old kid did, he was not threat to the cops or anybody, and didn't deserve to be killed.

and a taser, plastic? must feel and weigh totally differently from solid metal gun.

What kind stupid cop makes that mistake?

Hard for people to understand this- but how can you be sure he was not a threat?
probably because you NOW know- that the kid was unarmed

but the cops had no way of knowing that at the time- they had no way of knowing that the kid did not have a gun in the car and was going for the gun- unless i completely missed that the car had already been searched??
(i dont really know if it had)

of course the taser/gun fuckup is unforgivable but people panic and some of those people are experienced cops

anyone can panic at any time- no one knows how they will react when the shit hits the fan

this cop was extremely experienced - so they say- so her career/freedom might be over

not an excuse but it can happen to anyone

i DO agree he did NOT deserve to be killed tho

I don’t question whether the police genuinely felt that he was a threat. I don’t know that answer, we may never get the answer, and it’s pretty difficult to truly know what another person feels. He may or may not have been a threat to them. Rather, I question why was he a threat in the first place with the context of asking if the same exact scenario occurred with a white man, would they have felt that same threat level and have responded the same way?

People are asking the wrong questions. Stop asking the surface questions, the individual, case specific questions. Rather, ask why it keeps happening to black people and why we don’t hear it happening to white people. It’s not just a “white people comply” and “black people resist” issue. 30 years of the TV show Cops and we all know white people resist cops too.

Why do these accidents, why do these mistakes, why do these errors in judgment, why do these isolated uses of lethal force keep happening to black people? The problem of systemic racism does not fall on one, single individual police officer. When it’s systemic, it’s bigger, it’s embedded, it’s pervasive, it’s planted and rooted. Finding fault in one officer or exonerating that one officer does not address the bigger problem.

‘Graphic and unedited’: Police violence against Black people is no mistake

The killing of unarmed Black folk isn’t just ending the lives of the victims.

It’s a tragic legacy of trauma that alters the lives of every Black person in this country.

A 20-year-old, Daunte Wright, is dead.

And George Floyd’s brother Philonise Floyd is on TV mourning both men, telling us the pain he feels is only heightened by this latest death.

Do not dare to ask us for peace when this country has put us in a perpetual state of grief.

Peace is a safe society. America made it so that you have to fight for it.

You clearly do not understand what "slander" means. With his Facebook pics + victim testimony, one can come to the reason assumption that he was a piece of garbage.

Someone Called the Cops On Their Own Smart Vacuum

According to Sacramento CBS affiliate KOVR-TV (https://sacramento.cbslocal.com/2021/04/20/robot-vacuum-police-bust-down-door-intruder/), Yana Sydnor called the police to report a possible home invasion. Turns out, it was a robovac (https://www.androidpolice.com/2021/04/23/robo-vac-or-robo-robber-woman-calls-the-cops-on-smart-vac-that-went-bump-in-the-night/) that her son turned on before leaving for the weekend.

At 1 a.m., she and her 2-year-old daughter woke up to loud booms coming from her stairs disrupting her meditation music. She texted her friends about the sounds before they quickly responded, urging her to call 911. "I hear someone walking down my stairs, so it's like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom," Sydnor recalls telling the dispatcher. Desperate to exit the house and avoid a run-in with the invader, she ran to the bathroom, put her daughter in the tub, and thought about grabbing a ladder to get them both outside to ground level.

Officers arrived within 10 minutes of Sydnor's call. They rammed the front door wide open only to find a poor robovac, fresh from a tumble down a flight of stairs. "My son turned on the vacuum cleaner because he didn't want to do chores before he left for the weekend," she explained to the reporter after a moment of exasperated silence. The vacuum hadn't been used for 2 years and, even after the fall, it still works.

Virginia deputy mistook cordless house phone for gun in shooting of Black man, attorney says

A Virginia man is in intensive care after a sheriff's deputy shot him ten times outside his home early Wednesday, his family said.

Isaiah Brown, a 32-year-old Black man, was walking down the street away from his house in Spotsylvania County and was on the phone with a 911 dispatcher when the Virginia sheriff's deputy responded to his house following reports of a "domestic incident," according to a police statement, as well as body camera footage and 911 audio.

The footage and audio, which was released late Friday, appeared to show the deputy then yelling “drop the gun,” multiple times and saying over his radio, “he’s got a gun to his head.” The deputy then yells, “stop walking towards me, stop walking towards me” and “stop, stop" before shooting Brown.

The Virginia deputy mistook a cordless house phone Brown was holding for a gun, David Haynes, his attorney, said in a statement provided to USA TODAY. Brown was unarmed at the time of the shooting and "clearly told dispatch that he did not have a weapon more than 90 seconds before the deputy arrived," he said.

"Isaiah is now fighting for his life as a result of these completely avoidable errors by the deputy and dispatch," Haynes said.

Cop accused of hurting woman’s arm:

‘Ready for the pop?’

A Colorado police officer accused of dislocating the shoulder of a 73-year-old woman with dementia while arresting her seemed to be aware he had injured her.

He told fellow officers “ready for the pop?” as he showed them his body camera footage,

according to police station surveillance video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1iuuyg94-yI) with enhanced audio that was made public Monday

two other officers, one male and female, watching the footage with Hopp as he makes the “pop” comment. The female officer, who helped during the arrest and says “I hate this.”

The video then shows her pull her hat over her eyes while another male officer says, “I love it.”

she received no medical care for about six hours after she was taken to jail.

His body camera footage shows Hopp catching up to her as she walks through a field along a road.

She shrugs and turns away from him and he quickly grabs her arm and pushes her 80-pound (36-kilogram) body to the ground.

She looks confused and repeatedly says, “I am going home.”

Amid sustained calls for police reform, marches demanding an end to systemic racism, and an uptick in street violence,

more than 30 Boston police officers made over $300,000 in 2020 thanks in part to overtime earnings that yet again exceeded what the city had budgeted for the year, according to city data.

They aren’t the only ones in the department taking home hefty paychecks, either.

Overall, 509 Boston officers made more than $200,000 last year.

By contrast, the mayor makes $199,000.

their son experienced a “whole day of torture” instead of receiving the help he needed during a mental health crisis.

attempting to strap him to a restraint bed,

pepper-spraying him and

covering his face with a spit hood

as he rapidly deteriorated and eventually died.

Prosecutors are fighting to keep Arbery’s criminal record and other prior problems out of the trial, while seeking the judge’s permission to introduce unflattering evidence about the defendants — namely text messages that contain racist slurs and social media posts with racist themes.

As to his other 2 sons? Thomas Valva was the youngest of Michael Valva's three sons. All three lived in the house with him and his fiancée after a divorce from their mother, Justyna Zubko-Valva. Although Michael Valva was granted custody to look after the kids, Pix11 reported that teachers at the boys' school were concerned about the children and made at least 20 calls to the New York state child abuse hotline.The teachers complained that Thomas and his older brother wore pull-up diapers to school and scrounged around in rubbish bins for food. An earlier court heard that the two brothers allegedly went to school in 2019 with bruises on their bodies, and Thomas had "hair pulled from his head at the roots."

allegations of a series of domestic abuse incidents in 1998 and 1999. In one of those, the allegation indicated that White had

threatened violence with a firearm.

White is facing an allegation of domestic violence that dates back to 1999.

'Republican Messiah' ex-cop claims he was drunk during Capitol riot

Philip Grillo

told investigators after his Feb. 22 arrest that he didn't realize he was trespassing when he went into the Capitol with other Donald Trump supporters, and claims he tried to protect police officers from the violent mob.

"Grillo also said that he tried to go 'live' on Facebook after being pushed inside the Capitol but that his phone did not let him do so,"

Grillo's cell phone pinged off a nearby tower serving the Capitol during the assault and

automated license plate readers picked up his Chevy Traverse leaving New York on Jan. 5 and arriving the next morning at 2:10 a.m. in Washington, D.C.

The 46-year-old Grillo -- who described himself as "The Republican Messiah" on his since-deleted Facebook account -- returned home several hours after the Capitol was secured
Two childhood friends reported Grillo to the FBI after seeing him in CNN footage during the siege.

Postal Services' covert operations program using controversial online tools to surveil Americans (https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2021/5/21/2031520/-Postal-Services-covert-operations-program-using-controversial-online-tools-to-surveil-Americans)

https://images.dailykos.com/images/847955/story_image/GettyImages-1228183998.jpg?1598288796

"the program is much broader in scope than previously known and

includes analysts who assume fake identities online, use sophisticated intelligence tools and

employ facial recognition software."

It uses the controversial facial recognition technology Clearview AI to spy on Americans' images scraped from social media posts.

The analysts searching social media posts use software called Nfusion, which

lets users create and maintain untraceable and anonymous accounts on various social media sites.

This allows them “to help identify unknown targets in an investigation or locate additional social media accounts for known individuals,"

"The U.S. Postal Inspection Service appears to be putting significant resources into covert monitoring of social media and the creation and use of undercover accounts,"

"If these efforts are directed toward surveilling lawful protesters,

the public and Congress need to know why this is happening,

under what authority and subject to what kinds of oversight and protections."

The Postal Inspection Service doesn't see the problem, :lol

"News report and social media listening activity helps protect the 644,000 men and women who work for the Postal Service by ensuring they are able to avoid potentially volatile situations while working to process and deliver the nation’s mail every day."

the actual protection of USPS employees doesn't seem to be that high a priority.

Last year, DeJoy ordered the uniformed police force of the Postal Service to stop patrolling.

The order was to "end all mail-protection and other law-enforcement activity away from the confines of postal real estate,"

the first step to abolish the postal police force in its entirety."

He said that "in the absence of PPOs, all

USPIS law enforcement functions will be performed by the predominantly white Postal Inspectors—at twice the cost.

In other words, the Postal Service intends to replace lower paid Black and Brown employees with higher paid white employees."

"It seems that the Inspection Service trusts its predominantly white criminal investigators with law enforcement authority which is ostensibly unbounded,

but the opposite is true for the predominantly Black and Brown postal police officers,"

NYPD’s Sprawling Facial Recognition System Now Has More Than 15,000 Cameras

15,000 surveillance cameras in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the Bronx,

3,590 in Manhattan, 8,220 in Brooklyn, and 3,470 in the Bronx.

The highest concentrations of cameras appeared to be in predominantly Black and brown neighborhoods like

Brooklyn’s East New York, which was the city’s most surveilled neighborhood with 577 cameras.

The project is still collecting data for Queens and Staten Island.

NYPD conducted more than 22,000 facial recognition searches from October 2016 through October 2019

“You are never anonymous.

Whether you’re attending a protest, walking to a particular neighbourhood, or even just grocery shopping—

your face can be tracked by facial recognition technology using imagery from thousands of camera points across New York.”

“The NYPD’s issues with systemic racism and discrimination are well-documented (https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/home/downloads/pdf/reports/2021/Final-Policing-Report.pdf)—so, too, is the technology’s bias against women and people of colour.

Using FRT with images from thousands of cameras across the city risks

amplifying racist policing, harassment of protesters, and could even lead to wrongful arrests.”

Another Boston police scandal is quietly unfolding

While the city’s attention has been tied up in the future of embattled Police Commissioner Dennis White and the past of former union president Patrick Rose,

federal investigators have been unfurling evidence of a sprawling Boston police overtime fraud scheme,

part of a prosecution that has been quietly — and steadily — widening in scope.

To date, 14 current or former Boston police employees, almost all from the evidence unit, have been charged with

falsifying time sheets in order to collect more than $300,000 in fraudulent overtime.

Six of those implicated are former supervisors, including a retired captain who oversaw the department’s evidence warehouse.

Honolulu Police Officer Is Charged With Murder in the Shooting of a 16-Year-Old

Geoffrey H.L. Thom shot Iremamber Sykap eight times after a high-speed chase on April 5, prosecutors said.

Two other officers were charged with attempted murder.

“The evidence supports the conclusion that the defendants’ use of deadly force in this case was unnecessary, unreasonable, and unjustified under the law,”

, the officer charged with second-degree murder, had fired 10 shots “without provocation” into the rear window of a Honda driven by Iremamber, hitting him eight times.

Thom had written in a police report that the Honda had rammed his patrol car and had reversed toward him. But body camera footage, they said, contradicted those statements.

Nee, 26, a three-year police veteran, had fired four shots without provocation toward the passenger side of the Honda after it struck his empty patrol car.

Nee wrote in his report that he thought he had seen the butt of a firearm in the lap of the front-seat passenger, but body camera footage contradicted his account,

They condition their members to see themselves as

above the laws they are meant to enforce.

In the apocalyptic rhetoric of police-union leaders,

every victim of police misconduct is a criminal who had it coming,

and anyone who objects to such misconduct is probably also a criminal, and,

by implication, a legitimate target of state violence.

Due process is a privilege reserved for the righteous—

that is, police officers who might lose their jobs,

A Third Grader Drew a Rocket That Looked Like a Penis. She Was Handcuffed and Removed From School.

After a Florida teacher mistook a third grader’s drawing of a person hugging a rocket for male genitalia,

police seized the child for an involuntary psychiatric examination and

threw her into the back of a squad car, according to a new federal lawsuit.

“Baker Acted,” after a Florida law that allows children to be taken to a facility for an involuntary mental health exam if they’re suspected of seriously harming themselves or others in the near future.

At least 1,216 kids were “Baker Acted” in the Palm Beach County School District between the 2016 school year and 2020 school year,

Some allegedly had developmental disabilities and didn’t meet the statutory criteria for involuntary psychiatric examinations.

“nearly every Baker Act originating” in the Palm Beach County School District “was initiated by an officer” of the district’s police department.

kids—particularly children of color and children with disabilities—are forced into unnecessary and sometimes traumatic interactions with law enforcement.

On the day that the teacher discovered the drawing, she ran out of her classroom out of embarrassment and fear she’d get in trouble.

Staff contacted a school police officer and a “mobile response team” to bring the child into the principal’s office.

“More than two years later, L.A. still has nightmares about her experience with the Baker Act,” the lawsuit alleges.

“She was bullied by other students,

who knew that she had been transported for a purported desire to kill herself and

told her that she should ‘just do it.’

Ohio lawmakers propose bill that would criminalize recording the police with your mobile phone

https://occupydemocrats.com/wp-content/uploads/film-the-police.jpg

a transparent attempt to have law enforcement escape accountability for any potential misdeeds that they may commit during the course of their duties.

House Bill 22, a measure that would “expand Ohio obstruction of justice laws by including failure to follow a lawful order from police or diverting a law enforcement officer’s attention,”

it would be beneficial for both the police and the public at large when law enforcement is trying to keep crime scenes under control, make arrests, or “maintain order.”

The bill is naturally supported by the Ohio Prosecuting Attorney’s Association, the Buckeye Sheriff’s Association, the Ohio Highway Patrol, and the Fraternal Order of Police in the state.

the proposed bill will be used

to prevent witnesses of incidents of excessive force by police from using their mobile phones to document the misbehavior by law enforcement officers,

such an important factor these days to overcome the impunity of law enforcement in their violent encounters with the public.

17 hurt in blast during LAPD detonation of explosive devices

A major explosion in South Los Angeles on Wednesday evening damaged homes and injured 17 people, including police officers, as a bomb squad attempted to safely detonate improvised explosive devices that had been seized from a home along with about 5,000 pounds of illegal fireworks.

The blast damaged cars in a residential neighborhood and left debris on the streets, video on social media showed. A truck that was being used to collect the explosives also appeared to be severely damaged.

At a news conference, Los Angeles Police Chief Michel Moore said officials responding to a home on the 700 block of East 27th Street had found several thousand pounds of illegal fireworks as well as improvised explosive devices that were “more unstable.”

An LAPD bomb squad transferred the improvised devices into the iron chamber of a semitruck that’s meant to contain such explosive material, he said.

Police detonated the devices at 7:37 p.m., believing that the vehicle would be able to contain the explosion, but there was a “total catastrophic failure of that containment vehicle,” Moore said.

“Clearly protocols were followed and pursued, but something happened in that containment vehicle that should have not happened and we don’t know why,” the chief said. “We intend to find out why.”

The injured identified by officials ranged in age from 42 to 85. Officials said that nine LAPD officers and an officer from the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives were treated for minor injuries and are in fair condition. Six civilians were also taken to a hospital, three with serious injuries and three with minor injuries. One civilian was assessed for injuries but not transported.

Moore said that none of the injuries was life-threatening.

Officers also found improvised explosive devices with simple fuses — about 40 the size of Coke cans and 200 smaller objects of similar construction — and conducted X-rays to determine their contents.

Less than 10 pounds of the devices were transferred into a semitruck, which Moore said was rated, with its outer containment shell, to handle 18 pounds. Officials established a 300-foot perimeter behind the vehicle and evacuated the north and south sides of 27th Street.

But the explosion that followed brought 75 firefighters to the scene, caused damage to homes, consisting mostly of broken glass, and injured law enforcement officers and civilians. Eight or nine families had to find other housing for the night, Moore said.

I guess they knew what they were doing, the middle of a residential street seems an odd place for detonation.

17 hurt in blast during LAPD detonation of explosive devices

A major explosion in South Los Angeles on Wednesday evening damaged homes and injured 17 people, including police officers, as a bomb squad attempted to safely detonate improvised explosive devices that had been seized from a home along with about 5,000 pounds of illegal fireworks.

The blast damaged cars in a residential neighborhood and left debris on the streets, video on social media showed. A truck that was being used to collect the explosives also appeared to be severely damaged.

At a news conference, Los Angeles Police Chief Michel Moore said officials responding to a home on the 700 block of East 27th Street had found several thousand pounds of illegal fireworks as well as improvised explosive devices that were “more unstable.”

An LAPD bomb squad transferred the improvised devices into the iron chamber of a semitruck that’s meant to contain such explosive material, he said.

Police detonated the devices at 7:37 p.m., believing that the vehicle would be able to contain the explosion, but there was a “total catastrophic failure of that containment vehicle,” Moore said.

“Clearly protocols were followed and pursued, but something happened in that containment vehicle that should have not happened and we don’t know why,” the chief said. “We intend to find out why.”

The injured identified by officials ranged in age from 42 to 85. Officials said that nine LAPD officers and an officer from the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives were treated for minor injuries and are in fair condition. Six civilians were also taken to a hospital, three with serious injuries and three with minor injuries. One civilian was assessed for injuries but not transported.

Moore said that none of the injuries was life-threatening.

"Due to the demeanor displayed by (the woman) in attempts to intimidate law enforcement while destroying a pro law enforcement sign, the allegations are being treated as a hate crime enhanced allegation."

CBP's corruption streak continues, after border agents busted for working with smugglers

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has long been considered (https://www.propublica.org/article/border-patrol-discipline-system-was-denounced-as-broken-still-not-fixed) one of the most corrupt federal bodies in the nation,

with a government commissioned report in 2015 noting that “arrests for corruption of CBP personnel far exceed,

on a per capita basis, such arrests at other federal law enforcement agencies,”

a U.S. Border Patrol agent has admitted to conspiring with human smugglers for profit,

allowing them to transport people across the border in exchange for $400 a person.

The report said that messages reveal an

informant asking the agent, Rodney Tolson, Jr., if he was “ready to make some cash.”

Court documents say that the agent responded, “U know it,”

“Texas border agent helps smuggler sneak in cocaine—as other agents watched, feds say,”

”Every year, approximately 250 CBP employees are arrested,

many on suspicion of serious felonies; dozens have been jailed in recent years on corruption charges,

including weapons trafficking and collaborating with Mexican drug cartels,”

Cops blame Antifa for Oregon wildfires --

and approvingly share Proud Boys propaganda

Emails revealed police continued blaming wildfires last year in Oregon on anti-fascist activists after the FBI knocked down those rumors.

a Washington sheriff and other law enforcement officials pushed those rumors last summer to pin the blame for those wildfires on Antifa and Black Lives Matter demonstrators, although federal investigators found no evidence that was true,

American right-wingers began stoking similar rumors after the George Floyd protests swept the country,

but they gained new power when law enforcement officials appeared to endorse them.

sheriffs spreading baseless rumors about antifa puts progressive activists and the general public in the crosshairs,"

Songer, a self-described "constitutional sheriff" (https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/09/01/joe-arpaio-pardon-sheriffs-movement-215566/) :lol :lol :lol

Pawtucket officer pleads not guilty in shooting of unarmed teenage motorist

Patrolman Daniel Dolan Jr. faces

three counts of assault with a dangerous weapon and

one of using a firearm —

his .40 caliber police weapon — while committing a crime of violence

https://bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com/resizer/QzLUzdGriuDf8WCLZWruquuV4wE=/1440x0/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/bostonglobe/DQBDZ7ULTQBFF3SPTWINTCFB4I.jpg

Dolan was off-duty and nearly 30 miles outside of his jurisdiction

on June 23 when he accosted three West Greenwich teenagers in their car outside Wicked Good pizza.

He told investigators (https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/07/01/metro/off-duty-pawtucket-officer-will-be-charged-with-felonies-shooting-teen-driver/?p1=BGSearch_Advanced_Results&p1=Article_Inline_Text_Link)that he’d seen their Audi speed by him on Route 95 — a state police analysis found the car had been going about 110 miles an hour — and followed to “speak to the operator.”

They just saw his gun.

As the driver, 18-year-old Dominic Vincent, tried to pull away, Dolan followed their car on foot and yelled that he was going to shoot him — and then fired through the driver’s side window.

Vincent’s upper left arm was shattered, according to his lawyer, James P. Howe.

A Pawtucket city councilwoman said that she had warned (https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/06/28/metro/lawyer-teen-shot-by-off-duty-pawtucket-cop-demands-release-investigation/?p1=BGSearch_Overlay_Results&p1=Article_Inline_Text_Link&p1=Article_Inline_Text_Link) Mayor Donald Grebien and Police Chief Tina Goncalves that Dolan was aggressive with residents on the street.

Inside the highly unusual case of a Utah officer who killed a handcuffed man inside the police station (sltrib.com) (https://www.sltrib.com/news/2021/07/12/video-west-valley-city/)

West Valley City’s incident review committee determined Longman didn’t violate policy, and he’s back on duty after being on administrative leave, which is standard protocol after a police shooting. His actions are also defended by Utah’s Fraternal Order of Police. :rollin
