And the other important question is why is the crooked cop allowed to resign and walk away? Since his testimony, I assume it was under oath and was a lie, where are the perjury charges? How about putting him in prison?
I wonder if the cop is drawing a pension?
“”Jones faced a possible life sentence had he been convicted on a charge of aggravated assault of a public servant. But the case was dismissed in March 2011. Antkowiak, who investigators said suffered a concussion and other injuries in the fight, called the incident “terrible.”
“Any time a police officer has to use force, it’s unfortunate,” he said. “It’s not something that I ever put a uniform on to do. I put a uniform on to help people.”
Antkowiak, 40, resigned from the Dallas Police Department in January 2012 for unrelated health reasons after nearly five years on the force. He is now CEO of the U.S. Security Institute, a private training and security firm.
Jane Bishkin, a Dallas lawyer who has represented officers for more than 20 years, said “nothing really stands out” in the officers’ use of force in the dash-cam video. Officers are allowed to use strikes to gain compliance, she said.””
*ping*
It’s stuff like this that makes people like me question the intentions of cops.
A cop lied? I can’t believe it. :-)
eventually???...did this guy even have an attorney and , if so, why wasn’t the dash-cam evidence introduced at the trial....pathetic!!

I know that God says not to take revenge, that it is His job to do that, but one wants to dish back to these modern-day cops that shoot before asking questions, shoot to kill before identifying the purpose of their interdiction, etc. There are a lot of good cops, but in the cities, it is scary. There is NO WAY I’d want to live in a city!
Seems like a decent defence attorney would have immedietly summoned that video.
Unless it was “lost”.
See... that there is why I am honest and polite and cooperative to cops. I have alot of rights that I can legally assert but who’s to say the cop won’t be having a bad day... be annoyed by my assertion of rights... whack me with a billystick and say I attacked him? In court, its the cops word against mine.
I stay on their good side unless absolutely neccessary or alot of witnesses around.
The cop shold be fired, turn his pension over to the wronged party, and be in jail at least twice as long as the guy who was wrongly in there.
This chit about cops being trusted witnesses in he-said, citizen-said situations, and this bullcrap got-your-back lying the cops do for each other, has to end and have swift and harsh penalties for ALL those caught doing it and allowing it to be standard operating procedure.
I believe they want citizens not to trust cops, I believe they want animosity between cops and citizens because it takes the attention off the higher up nwo-planners, the marxist liberals destroyign the country and their diversionary divide and conquer strategies, by placing terrible awful people on the force to make the average person distrust all cops, and to allow these people to terrorize the average citizen, putting officer safety higher than citizens’ lives, by shooting first and covering it up afterwards by always claiming feeling ‘threatened’, by putting women cops out there who are smaller and weaker and pull their guns way more often than men b/c it takes far less for them to feel threatened...more civilians shot because of it.
Good question, especially since it is in everyone's favor not to have it drag out like it does today.
Eccl. 8:11 "Because the sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil. "
Why did it take 15 months fir the man to have his “speedy” trial?
Leo’s are too busy prosecuting 91 y/o men collecting artifacts, etc.
