A 40-year-old Jacksonville police officer with a history of DUIs since her 2004 hire was charged Tuesday with five counts of driving under the influence causing damage as well as multiple hit-and-runs, the Sheriff’s Office said.

Why does this one make the whole count.

Undersheriff Dwain Senterfitt said he had fired Jones after a DUI investigation in 2011, but an arbitrator reinstated her. Senterfitt said he is frustrated she was rehired and is now under investigation a third time.

That’s right, you can’t fire corrupt cops who disobey the law.

Because a DUI is only a problem when the person in question isn’t a cop.

Another officer trying out to move to IMPD.

An Orange County deputy was arrested for DUI late Sunday night after he rear-ended another car.

The Florida Highway Patrol said Deputy Kevin Meyer was in uniform driving an unmarked sheriff’s office truck.

Why is this one on the list? 

According to Orange County sheriff records, this was not the first accident that Sgt. Meyer has been involved in while driving a patrol vehicle.

In 2006, he received a verbal reprimand for losing control of the vehicle and causing an unknown amount of damage.

He’s on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation.  Interesting, LNI has a mandatory drug test for any work related incident yet he refused to blow.  Why didn’t they just fire his ass?

Because always make sure if you’re going to get smashed, do so while wearing your uniform and in a vehicle owned by the taxpayers.

SSCC Honorable Mention: Delaware County

Comments Off on SSCC Honorable Mention: Delaware County

A longtime Delaware County sheriff’s deputy is facing assault and reckless endangerment charges in Lehigh County after allegedly opening fire on his own car as the woman he lent it to attempted to flee, authorities said.

Gregory Todd Price, 53, of the Drexel Hill section of Upper Darby, was arrested Tuesday by Allentown police and charged with one count of simple assault and three counts of recklessly endangering another person.

Remember though, the police are the only ones trained enough in the legal use of deadly force and the proper and safe handling of a firearm.

That man get’s a pass to carry a firearm, even in places other people who are licensed can’t.  Didn’t stop him from being an idiot though now did it.

I should probably strike the Honorable Mention from this considering he will probably resign to save face.  Never mind the fact anyone working in the private sector would get the boot from their employer in an event such as this.

State Sponsored Criminal (HM): Gregory Todd Price

Because cops get a free pass to threaten, intimidate, and deploy deadly force without cause.

A federal judge in Brownsville sentenced 31-year-old Armando Duenez (DWHEN’-ehz). He pleaded guilty in January to conspiracy to export firearms and failure to appear.

Investigators say Duenez was a Rio Hondo police officer at the time of the scheme to export rifles from the U.S. to Mexico.

Maybe he was the pilot program for Fast and Furious?

State Sponsored Criminal: Armando Duenez

Because he should have gone to work for the ATF instead.

A man has filed a federal lawsuit against a Lexington police officer alleging that the officer forced his way into the man’s home without a warrant and charged him with several offenses that were later dismissed.

The officer assaulted the home owner as well as forced entry without cause.

State Sponsored Criminal: Ronald Kornrumpf

Because warrants, probable cause, and the use of force continuum apply to everyone but law enforcement.

Given the history of the LVPD, this one isn’t surprising.

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s Use of Force Board is recommending the firing of a police officer for shooting a man in the leg in November.

The officer evidently can appeal the decision.  From what I could find this has *keep your “boogerhook off the bang switch,” written all over it.

Why would I include this in the count, what would happen if any of us had a negligent discharge into a person?

State Sponsored Criminal: Jacquar Roston

Because when you’re a cop, the 4 rules don’t matter.

A city cop was charged with assault early Monday following a domestic dispute at his Brooklyn home, the NYPD said.

Hmm, and is it any surprise that Bloomberg only wants his army armed within New York?

State Sponsored Criminal: Sony Joseph

Because in Mayor Bloomberg’s world only the members of his army should be armed, everyone else is at their mercy.

A dozen Cleveland police supervisors face internal discipline charges stemming from a chase that saw officers fire 137 shots and kill a fleeing driver and his passenger, the city’s police chief said Tuesday.

Both the victims in this case had a prior history and were on drugs at the time of the car chase.  The police claim the chase began with a report of gunfire.  Neither a weapon or shell casings were found in the car.  This could mean they ditched a revolver or that the police made it up.

The icing on the cake though is the following:

An internal police review showed that both officers and supervisors broke department policies. The chief said a review is continuing into whether any officers will be disciplined.

So in other words they did it cowboy style.

State Sponsored Criminal: John Doe

Because by all means endanger the lives of citizens and ignore department policy in so doing.
