Agreed. Personally, I believe that there are good people who want to become police. However, there are some that want to “control” or “live some sort of aggression fantasy”. I thought that many departments screen via use of psychological testing. I realize that this is probably limited but perhaps it should be used in cases like this... a cop that really goes over the edge?

You have to understand that Suffolk Police has a union.

They will fight tooth and nail for any officer no matter what the issue.

It is a real disservice to society that they protect bad apples from within.

With the advent of video cameras, the public is finally seeing what is really going on.
