Just wondering, how does one get a commercial license if you can’t read?
WTF? If this 'chief' said this he should go to jail as well as the arresting officers... Is this story real?
Don’t tell me...
The officers are on PAID leave while the matter is under investigation... Right?
Are you freaking kidding me? If you just comply you have nothing to fear? That smacks of police state for sure!
Olegs Kozacenko just won the lottery, but he may not know it yet. I’m sure lawyers are lining up to tell him the good news.
But if you don't it's Katy bar the door.
THIS IS A CHILLING COMMENT.
It sounds very..... Soviet.
OK. Which part of “Jack Booted Thug” does not apply here?
The officer claims it was reasonable force!
In new America, you serve and protect the police.
The fact that all the charges were thrown out :DUI, possession of white powder (table salt) and resisting arrest, and the pictures, pretty much say it.
How would the police know he was driving too many hours before they pulled him over, the article says he broke no laws..."The driver, who broke no laws"
Whatever justice is administered by the Calipornia courts on Acting Chief Ken Hill and his Gestapo thugs, it will be far less than they deserve.
As long as this lowlife remain in the U.S. Ken Hill should be treated with utter disgust... oh, wait, he’s in Calipornia; so that’s pretty much outside the U.S. now anyway.
This song was from another famous CHP beating victim.
What was the race of the driver?
What was the race of the police?
I am speculating. I need to leave the house in a few minutes and haven’t read the article.
Bttt
But according to the CHP there is no dash cam video of the actual incident. In response to a public records request the CHP says Murrill and Sherman didnt have cameras in either of their patrol SUVs. The CHP also said that computer aided dispatch logs of radio conversations from the incident werent found because of system malfunctioning for this time period.
Asshole thug cops raping liberty ping
I guess he could make a disability claim.
Oh wait those are only for the lard butt, desk jockeys that run the CHP
CA: ‘Chief’s Disease’ rife at CHP
Sac Bee ^ | 9/10/04 | John Hill and Dorothy Korber
After 33 years on the job, Deputy Commissioner Ed Gomez was ready to end his career with the California Highway Patrol. He was so disabled by workplace stress and physical ailments, his doctor said, that he could no longer work as a CHP commander. The doctor’s report said Gomez must “avoid more than ordinary stress in further occupational endeavors.” In 2000, the 57-year-old was awarded a $39,000 settlement, medical care for life for his injuries, and a state industrial disability pension of $106,968 a year - half tax-free.
Barely two years later, Gomez was hired by the federal government to be security director at San Francisco International Airport, a position described as “on the front lines of the war on terrorism.” It’s a job he holds today.
Gomez is a prime example of a widespread practice documented by a Bee investigation: top-tier CHP officers aggressively pursuing injury claims, often near the end of 30-year careers, that hike their retirement income. Like Gomez, some go on to demanding second careers while collecting their state disability pensions. Inside the CHP it’s known as “Chief’s Disease.”
Of 65 high-ranking CHP officers who have retired since 2000, 55 pursued workers’ compensation settlements within two years of retiring. These injury claims formed the basis for disability settlements and medical pensions.
