Police unions are amongst the most evil en ies out there...
those unions not being busted by the fascist oligarchy.
... "only a few bad apples"
Flashlight beatings, chokings and threats:
Dallas officer faced multiple allegations of brutality
Two Black men accused the officer of beating them with his flashlight
so badly they were treated at a hospital.
Another Black man said he threatened to yank his "[expletive] through this window."
A Black woman said the officer choked her while saying, ‘B----, you want to die?’’
Those complaints were among the first from people who alleged brutality, racial profiling and other misconduct by
Sgt. Roger Rudloff
over his 26 years on the Dallas police force.
And the allegations of abuse kept coming, at least 18 in all,
mostly from Black and Latino people, police records show.

LAPD badly miscalculated weight of fireworks before South L.A. explosion, ATF finds
Los Angeles police badly miscalculated the amount of fireworks they placed into a containment vessel before detonating them and causing a massive explosion that destroyed part of a South L.A
LAPD’s containment vehicle was designed to handle repeated detonations of 19 pounds of TNT equivalent at a time, or a single detonation of 33 pounds of explosives before being returned to its manufacturer for analysis.
LAPD bomb squad technicians accidentally no, incompetently.
loaded and detonated 39.8 pounds of explosives in the containment vehicle on the day of the explosion, Hoffman said.
the fireworks that were placed in the containment vessel were not weighed with a scale but eyeballed by the technicians working the scene.
injured 17 people —
including 10 LAPD officers, one ATF agent and six civilians — and
damaged or destroyed 13 businesses,
22 residential properties and
37 vehicles,
The explosion displaced dozens of people, forcing them to move into hotel rooms paid for by the city as officials worked to clean up the mess.
Many residents remain displaced, with some homes on the block deemed uninhabitable.
Others have continued living in damaged homes.

Pasco County gonna get thumped
https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20...programs.shtmlIt doesn't really matter whether the Sheriff's Office believes its own PR bull . It is fully engaged in harassing as many residents as possible. That's why it's allowed its so-called predictive policing program to infiltrate local schools, subjecting minors (and their families) to the same harassment previously limited to adults with criminal records. Almost anything can trigger unwelcome interactions with the office's deputies, including slipping grades, missed school days, or simply being the victim of, or witness to domestic violence.
Local schools are apparently fine with this. They've been sharing student records with the Sheriff's Office. And the Sheriff's Office has been sharing this info with officers. Both of these actions appear to violate federal and local student privacy laws. Not that the Sheriff's Office cares. It says it has done nothing wrong -- only availed itself of records shared with it (unlawfully) by schools.
The exposure of these programs by the Tampa Bay Times has led to multiple investigations and accusations of lawbreaking. One of these investigations involves the federal government, which makes it clear it's not just the locals that find the Sheriff's Office's programs abhorrent. The Department of Education opened an investigation in April to determine whether the in-school "intelligence-led policing" violated federal student privacy laws.
There's a new federal investigation underway. The Department of Justice wants to know what the is going on in Pasco County, Florida. (h/t WarOnPrivacy)
The U.S. Department of Justice is conducting an “intensive review” of the Pasco Sheriff’s Office’s latest intelligence program, federal officials said this week.
The Justice Department sent a letter to the Sheriff’s Office on Aug. 6 — two weeks after the Tampa Bay Times reported that the Sheriff’s Office had promised increased police scrutiny for people whose criminal histories included violent crimes and drug offenses.
The Justice Department’s letter raised concerns about the methodology used to identify targets, communications with the community and the “insufficient” coordination with relevant law enforcement agencies.

https://apnews.com/article/police-be...d73cc35b0c02f8An AP review of internal investigative records and newly obtained videos identified at least a dozen cases over the past decade in which Louisiana State Police troopers or their bosses ignored or concealed evidence of beatings, deflected blame and impeded efforts to root out misconduct.
AP’s review — coming amid a widening federal investigation into state police misconduct — found troopers have made a habit of turning off or muting body cameras during pursuits. When footage is recorded, the agency routinely refuses to release it. And a recently retired supervisor who oversaw a particularly violent clique of troopers told internal investigators this year that it was his “common practice” to rubber-stamp officers’ use-of-force reports without reviewing body-camera video.
In some cases, troopers omitted uses of force such as blows to the head from official reports, and in others troopers sought to justify their actions by claiming suspects were violent, resisting or escaping, all of which were contradicted by video footage.
“Hyper-aggressiveness is winked upon and nodded and allowed to go on,” said Andrew Scott, a former Boca Raton, Florida, police chief and use-of-force expert who reviewed videos obtained by AP. “It’s very clear that the agency accepts that type of behavior.”
