I don't get people reflexively defending the jacked-up retard Garret Rolfe. The first cop had the situation handled perfectly. Brooks was drunk. Cop laughed and told him to "take a nap" in a parking space. No rush. Chill. His car would be towed. He would be tested and cited. In some jurisdictions he would be detained, in others not. Automatic loss of license, fines, possible jail. In Brooks' case as it turned out, likely BACK to jail (was on probation). In may day I've seen cops take keys and let perp sleep on curb.

Rolfe arrives and ratchets up the intensity, without any reason. Moron thinks he's playing a video game. Never told Brooks "ok, since you failed the test, we are going to have to cite you for DUI, etc" and tell him other consequences (license suspension, etc). Just says ok and tries to slap the cuffs on. Just godawful policing.

Unless you blindly support police officers in every instance then you're anti-police. I agree completely with Trump when he says there are a tiny minority of officers who shouldn't be on the job, and decent people should stand solidly behind the good ones and against the bad ones. And this is a case of a bad officer who killed someone unnecessarily and should pay the price for his actions.

The first cop was staying cool until he had backup, wisely as it turns out, since one on one with Brooks would likely have left him dead. I don’t get people defending the public menace child abuser and justifying numerous felonies because of a cops curbside manner. Pathetic.
