in my experience, it doesn't pay to "trump up" charges. too many checks along the way.

Yeah, where there is evidence, cameras, witnesses, paper trails etc...However, in many incidents, it's only the LEOs word against the suspects, and all rides on who appears more credible in court. It's easy to "embellish" events or incidents, for both the suspects, and LEOs.

Everything considered,the Sgt. asked to be fired because he threatened charges he knew would be false.

That alone should be grounds for dismissal.

I hope we do not hear of the young driver being victim of a random act of violence .Some people blame others for their own acts,especially if it results in loss of employment.
