As expected the jailers claimed they were never informed and all evidence that would prove they were was lost or destroyed. Amazing how that happens isn’t it?

Because instead of just killing someone you can let them slowly die and suffer from their medical condition. Then if anyone asks you can just claim you didn’t know and destroy the evidence you did.
Yup, business as usual for our anointed overlords. When they say “To Protect and Serve” they really just are leaving off the hidden word at the end, “Themselves.”

Because by all means beat the hell out of someone without actually talking to them first.
These officers made an assumption about the condition of an individual. They caused an adrenaline spike that made him coherent enough to be able to request assistance and they continued to ignore him. Upon arrival of paramedics they promptly took him to the hospital because of a severe blood sugar deficiency.
As my father had diabetes this isn’t funny, this isn’t ok, this is down right negligent. The police officers assume without any actual evidence that this individual is a criminal. Except he is the exact opposite. He felt his medical emergency coming on and pulled himself off the road. Below is the officers thank you for his responsible actions.
[Sarcasm]Yup that right there is called positive reinforcement for good behavior.[/Sarcasm]
There is also a serious policy issue given the following:
So policy dictates that in an incident where someone is obviously no longer of a sound mental state, so much so they may loose consciousness, medical aid shouldn’t be sought unless it can be confirmed beyond a reasonable doubt the cause is diabetes? What if the individual dies from alcohol poisoning or a drug overdose? Since when have police officers started receiving medical training to the degree of EMTs, much less doctors and nurses. Their job should be merely to asses the situation and say, “Does this person need attention to verify he is ok?” Mental incoherence is a big, “Get Help Now Idiot!”.
No matter how you cut it though these officers were criminally negligent and exercised unnecessary force because well that’s how cops deal with problems. Instead of using their brain, the just beat the thing until they get it to do what they want.
This isn’t the first instance I’ve heard of something like this happening either. Yeah I hate drunk drivers, more than you can possibly believe, but the legal system exists for a reason. Even more than that, I don’t want someone who has an actual medical emergency getting beat up because someone thinks they’re drunk. There’s simple tests to determine the truth. Cops are paid to protect the public, beating the hell out of a man who was in a medical emergency doesn’t fit the bill.

Because when you’re a cop, you’re Judge Dread and can determine someone’s guilt on the spot. You don’t need a blood test, there’s no such thing as a medical emergency so they must be either high or drunk.
Now before you completely dismiss it, note no charges were ever filed against the mother. The charges against the son were merely resisting arrest and disorderly conduct, both of which were dropped. Both of those charges are often referred to as “contempt of cop”. But most note worthy is the following:
Rarely do bad cops ever just do it once. No they’re allowed to continue abusing the citizens till their actions are so egregious that it could cost someone an elected position. The response at that point is to merely let him resign.

Because when you see someone sitting in a car in their drive way, throw them on the ground and arrest them. Just make it up as you go along, your partner will always back you up.
Reading the article it appears the officer had no reason to treat the stop as a felony stop. He then broke two rules obviously and put a round into the driver. Yup, still think the cops are out to protect and serve. They’re out to merely protect their own ass if they’re protecting anyone.
Odds are the officer won’t be fired and if anything will receive “training”. I have a feeling the training is really, “How to frame the situation better in your favor.”
The reason I say it happened in NYC, is here in free America they would be afraid of people in the car being armed and shooting back after the first shot.

Because if you’re a cop and someone cuts you off, pull him over and shoot him. If anyone asks what happened say he shot himself!*
*Yes, read the article, the officer told his friends that the driver shot himself…
Nothing says, son you did wrong, like giving them a paid vacation and letting them resign to save their career.

Because when you’re a cop and you see a woman you fancy, you can evidently do whatever the hell you want. Just do your best to make sure you don’t get caught.
Former New Orleans police officer, Roger Jones, 38, has resigned after being arrested — again — on hit-and-run charges. The 15-year veteran, who was already on desk duty pending investigation of a 2011 hit-and-run, confessed to hitting a car, leaving the scene of the accident, parking his police cruiser at another location, then reporting it stolen.
Emphasis mine. Note he was arrested for the same thing. As usual he was left to resign instead of being fired less that black mark follow him where ever he goes.

Because hit and run is perfectly acceptable when you’re a cop. They’re anointed so it’s cool.
