Now, getting out of your car during a traffic stop is never a good idea unless ordered to do so. That however doesn’t excuse that cops behavior and the way he made up the law as he went along.
This guy and officer Roid-Rage would get along great.

Because an officer of the law can just make it up as he goes along and in the end qualified immunity will protect him even if grossly negligent in his understanding.

Remember this the next time someone tries to claim how LEOs are some how magically more trained than all their civilian counter parts. Lets also no beleaguer the fact, he was basically stealing money.

Because by all means bill for services that weren’t rendered and make sure to provide training credentials to those who haven’t earned them.
This one goes up because by god, they actually do use that most underused law on the books.
Only 3 years for the deed though, even with attempting to cover it all up.

Because the reason we have full time law enforcement is so criminals can use that authority to abuse the law-abiding and steal from them. They get a nice slap on the wrist though when they get caught.
Overall the rates of misuse have risen 400% since 2011. Think about that the next time the police say they need some database to help do their job better.
What they really mean is they want to make stalkers with a badge have an easier time stalking their victims. Any database of citizens will be misused, so why make it in the first place? Sure it may start with “good intentions” like most things, but is it actually necessary?

Because if you’re a law abiding citizen you have nothing to hide from a stalker with a badge right?
Instead of an SSCC tonight we have this. He only got 2 years but read the judges comments and what all went down.
Thankfully the judge didn’t hold back:
And upon his release from prison he will have to register as a sex offender. I would say his job in law enforcement is effectively done.
I wish he was serving more jail time, but as it’s the maximum sentence for his convictions and the other modifiers should keep him from doing it again. I can take that.
Former Officer John Norman – Because he was too stupid to see he was using his position as force and leverage to manipulate people, yeah I don’t believe that and neither did the judge.
That’s right folks, the officers acted in concert with each other to break the law. As usual the officers are on administrative leave pending the outcome of the criminal investigation. However given the history of different departments, I have no hope of them terminating employment of this offense. If they do, odds are the officers will be allowed to resign to save face and prevent a black mark from affecting future employment.

Because when you think that someone stole your stuff, you just take care of it your self right? You are the law!

Surprise! An incident in his history occurred in 2002 and was also one of the officers responsible for this incident. Yet the department has yet to fire him.
No word on if there was any charges for the domestic altercation. It would be doubly interesting if he was a prohibited person but exempt because he’s an LEO.
State Sponsored Criminal #501: Henderson Parker
Because when officers start doing bad things, there’s no reason at all they shouldn’t be taken off the job, it’s not like they’ve shown that they’re irresponsible.
This guy is starting to sound like a wonderfully reputable character to be working in law enforcement in our nations capital. He was previously noted here.

Because if your in for a penny you’re in for a pound.
