Pennsylvania cop arrested for improperly committing ex-girlfriend to mental facility: DA
New York Post ^ | Sep. 24, 2023 | David Propper

A married Pennsylvania State Police trooper is facing false imprisonment charges after he allegedly violently detained his ex-girlfriend and committed her to a mental health treatment program under bogus claims.

Ronald Davis, 37, was arrested Thursday on accusations he abused his authority to carry out the twisted takedown that left his former girlfriend improperly stuck in a medical facility for multiple days, the Dauphin County District Attorney’s Office said.

Davis reportedly told her: “I know you’re not crazy, I’ll paint you as crazy” leading up to the forced medical treatment, the victim claimed, according to court documents released by the district attorney’s office.

“Why are you treating me like a criminal?” she said before uniformed officers arrived and took her to Lehigh Valley Hospital-Schuylkill.

She suffered injuries to her forehead, torso, back, buttocks, forearms, knee and lower body, according to the document.

The ex-girlfriend was involuntarily committed for five days and did not display any suicidal thoughts during that time, according to medical personnel.

Davis, who prosecutors said is married with a family, is facing charges of felony strangulation, unlawful restraint, false imprisonment, simple assault, recklessly endangering another person and official oppression.

He was remanded without bail following an arraignment Thursday, the DA’s office said.

The GUY is obviously the one that should be committed. And if he were that would be a measure of justice.

Nearly as bad as the cop who arrested a guy and, as he was taking him to the station, called his boss and asked what he could charge the guy he arrested with. After some hours they decide that he had been walking the wrong way on the street.

The Eighth Circuit said this Alice in Wonderland way of doing things is perfectly fine.

Story is pure Lefty media twisted nonsense .

A cop can not just get a person locked up .

That person must have long list documented previous suicide attempts or danger to others and even then Daily a Group of Doctor must review her status.

Ask anyone with a mentally ill relative desperate to get them locked up for treatment .

It stinks when a cop uses the restroom just like the rest of us.

This Orwellian “Animal Farm” notion that cops are better than the rest of us that they are “more equal” needs to end.

I’ve often joked that my wife never needs to divorce mr, she can just have me committed.

Unlike the cop, she can. She’s a shrink!

This Cop did everything wrong. He can’t be trusted with that level of authority any longer.
Off Topic: The girl friend looks very thin, too thin, like a Meth user. Even still, she didn’t deserve that treatment.
Some people would be profoundly traumatized by such an abduction.

Whichever Cop it was standing there filming and passively watching this abuse of a citizen needs to be fired too.
Aiding and abetting is what that was.

Yep, have a cousin who is bi-polar. While on meds he functions well but if he stops taking them and drinks he can be really scary. Last time he was admitted for care ( against his will) they were ready to release him when the nurse asked him what was the first thing he was going to do when he got out, told her he was coming back and shooting her.
