That is completely wrong. This piece of shit was planting drugs not jaywalking. How do they justify supporting him?
Because pieces of shit will always cause a stink. These Dindus are only bad when the ones who are saying this bullshit say they are bad. His wife is probably one of those whores who hits people with her car and then threatens to have the victim arrested if they complain because her husband is a deputy.
Dude has messed up dozens, if hundreds of lives, and the best could do was 12 years? They convicted him on 19 counts, what the fuck is the argument for less than 19 years?
You may have noticed a recent trend in America where nobody gets more than a slap on the wrist no matter what they do. Unless, of course, they're being made an example of. Then they're going away for life times a billion.
The only real crime in America right now is drawing the ire of the lynch mob. Once that happens the entire system will gladly sell you out in exchange for their own safety.
The "put him in the same prison as the people he falsified evidence against" argument.
release everyone he wronged, give him the bill for their compensation, and transfer their remaining sentences to him.
Im pretty pro cop but this guy should get the chair.
What exactly did he get out of it other than an authority boner? And how did he keep getting away with it if there is body cam footage?
Not nearly enough. What he did was bad enough, but his real crime is breaking the public's trust. That should be a minimum 50 years or execution. Should be applicable to all public servants.
Agreed. Those with a fiduciary duty to the public at large should be held to higher, not lower, legal standards.
My vote is for execution, or the functional equivalent. If one of his victims kills him, I would vote for probation.
This guy is how you get the public to stop believing in law enforcement.
his time should have been added up by the amount of time his victims spent in jail and on probation
Institutional failure
In one of the towns I lived in, the police planted drugs so often the officer in charge of the school showed us how it was done. He couldn't say outloud that's what he was doing, but he showed it to every class he could.
And now everyone who actually had drugs can ask for pardon and compensation.
