Former DC Metropolitan Police Department Lieutenant Shane Lamond has been sentenced to 18 months in prison by crooked activist Judge Amy Berman Jackson for speaking to Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio in an attempt to prevent clashes between his group and Antifa militants. Lamond was arrested for telling Tarrio that the DC Police had a warrant out for his arrest for vandalizing a Black Lives Matter banner.
Before his arrest, Lamond had been with the department for 22 years and served as supervisor of the Intelligence Branch for his last four years.
Judge Berman-Jackson convicted Lamond in December 2024 for “obstruction of justice” and three counts of “making false statements” after a seven-day trial. She is the same judge who sentenced non-violent J6ers to decades in prison, said that Trump should be prosecuted and that he is “the definition of tyranny and authoritarianism,” and oversaw the ridiculous trials of Roger Stone and Paul Manafort.
Lamond told the court that, as an intelligence officer, he believed it was his job to build rapport with individuals like Tarrio. By staying informed about where the Proud Boys planned to demonstrate, he could work to prevent clashes between the group and far-left agitators. His lawyer, Mark Schamel, argued that Lamond’s actions were consistent with his training and responsibilities, accusing authorities of twisting standard police work into a crime

Is it standard operating procedure for cops to warn people that there is a warrant out for their arrest?
I still don’t know what law he broke.

Aren’t warrants public records? i.e. not secret
A phony arrest warrant for a made-up "crime".
What a banana republic. Berman Jackson is an evil clown.
Lamond was working for the leftist bureaucrats in charge. He was feeding the alligators, in hopes they would eat him last. (-Donald Rumsfeld)
I wouldn't think it is standard procedure. When I was in patrol I would sometimes advise people they had a warrant if the charge was a low level offense with a small bail. When I was in detectives I would sometimes advise someone a warrant was out for them if they had been truthful and cooperative. I would give them a chance to turn themselves in. It is discretionary though and I doubt it is SOP in any given department.
Just ANOTHER DUMBASS JEWESS DEMOCRAT!!
A police officer warning a wanted individual that there is a warrant out for their arrest and letting that individual go without attempting to take him into custody (which any cop is required to do) is most definitely dereliction of duty. Maybe in violation of another law or two, as well.
He aided in letting a wanted person to avoid capture and trial. It’s obviously not a complete corrupt railroading of this dumb cop because it’s something you don’t do without extremely high-up approval.
It doesn’t matter if there’s a law or not, he prevented a planned demon-rat riot that’s way he got jail time.
Please see post #8 above for a nuanced and informed answer.
Immediate pardon please DJT and return to work with back pay.
Former cop
Short drop, sudden stop.
Pronto.
Yeah. When I was on patrol for 15+ years you most certainly did not advise a divisive political figure (with whom there was ample reason to know they’re on everyone’s radar) that they have a warrant out for their arrest WITHOUT taking them into custody.
Maybe you were okay with telling low-level idiots they had misdemeanor warrants over the phone or something, but making physical contact with someone thats wanted and letting them go after telling them they’re wanted..... absolutely a suspension and probably criminally charged.
Trump needs to pardon him immediately.
Leftists don’t care if you broke a law.
If they want to punish you, they will with jail time on bogus charges.
Looking ahead to next Valentine’s Day, does anyone have Amy’s address?
