This is one bad cop, and he needed firing. There are many more like him. I was about to type “but not all cops are bad,” as I know several personally. However, what gives me most concern in this story isn’t the bad cop, it’s that his fellow cops were DONATING THEIR OWN OFF TIME to him so he could keep his job while he litigated his termination. To put it in perspective, the term they use for us “citizens” in the same situation is “accomplices.” That makes them just as bad.
If being “good” means doing the right thing, even when it costs you, then “good cops” are almost non-existent.
Which is precisely why I WOULD NEVER TRUST or BELIEVE anything a Police Officer in Amerika says, they are all corrupt in my opinion for this very reason, Time and Time again we see entire Police Departments STAND IN UNITY FOR A COMMON CRIMINAL because he or she has a Badge. Needless to say this TERRORIST BELONGS IN PRISON FOR LIFE, Yes I said Terrorist, Anybody else would be charged with “Making Criminal Terrorist Threats” Canton citizens need to FIRE THE ENTIRE DEPARTMENT and the Politicians in charge, then A new DA could file Charges against ALL OF THEM for their Conspiracy against the citizenry of Canton, Ohio. They are all accomplices and should all be treated as such.
You said it. so many people say there are only a few bad apples, and ignore the “good cops” who enable the bad cops by keeping their mouths shut. Good cops don’t do that.
