McKINNEY The McKinney police officer whose actions at a pool party disturbance last Friday went viral in a YouTube video resigned from the force on Tuesday.
"The actions of Eric Casebolt are indefensible," police Chief Greg Conley told reporters at a news conference late Tuesday afternoon, saying the officer was "out of control during the incident."
"I had 12 officers on the scene, and 11 of them performed according to their training," Conley added.
Casebolt's resignation was confirmed about one hour earlier by attorney Jane Bishkin, who told WFAA that the decision was made after a meeting with the department's internal affairs unit to review possible charges her client could face.

I think you said this once already. I still say, very few people can do what cops do and for crappy pay.
Right, we just saw a guy who didn’t belong on the force, and now he is gone.
That might be why he was not with the Texas Highway Patrol for very long, which is where he first started out.
And if one of those “teens” had smashed the cop’s head with a rock, it would barely have made the news.
You can play with your imagination all day long, but everyone that matters, the cop, the union, his lawyer, all saw what was on that video instantly, it is over, move on with your life.
“move on with your life.”
Funny, I didn’t know I had stopped. ;-)
People in McKinney may be rich but not as smart as they think.
