"Meanwhile, some officers will privately acknowledge that Pantaleo used a banned chokehold. One veteran officer even told Gothamist, on the condition of anonymity, that he agreed with the commissioner's decision. He also argued that fault for Garner's death primarily rested with the city's focus on Broken Windows policing, which he said pits beat cops against communities of color.

"As police officer I understand how they see it, but they're not seeing how the racist ways of the police department led them to this," the officer said. "Broken windows makes stuff like this happen against black people." Garner was initially stopped for allegedly selling loose cigarettes, a "quality-of-life" offense that the mayor has said should continue to be enforced.

The officer also suggested that Pantaleo's race may have factored into the outpouring of support he received from the department. He noted that such full-throated solidarity was largely absent after the department fired Peter Liang, an immigrant officer who fatally shot an unarmed black man in 2014. The officer speculated that "if a minority had [killed Garner], they would have fired him immediately."

"There's a thin blue line," he added, "but it has a white streak on it."

According to the allegations in the suit, Wilson, a 32-year force veteran, slid down Simms' shorts and examined her vagina in view of the street while male officers were present. The officer also pulled a tampon from Simms’ vagina and held it up, inspecting it in front of the other cops.

 

The suit references video footage taken from a squad car camera that appears to show Simms raising objections when it appeared Wilson was ready to probe her anus to continue the search.

 

"Officer Wilson had violated Natalie vaginally, and now it appeared that she might violate Natalie anally," the lawsuit alleges. "She was doing so without a warrant, with no medical personnel present, and on a public street in view of several people as well as those passing by."

 

According to the suit, Wilson was never disciplined for the search because internal affairs found that she hadn't violated any department policies. She retired in 2017.

A police officer’s body camera allegedly caught him fondling a dead woman’s breasts

 

Quote

The incident, which was first reported by the Los Angeles Times, surfaced during a random review of body-camera footage. It is unclear when the officers responded to the call at the Los Angeles home or how long the alleged fondling lasted. According to the newspaper, the LAPD’s police chief and union agreed last month to allow random inspections of body-camera recordings to ensure officers interact appropriately with the city’s residents and visitors. Police supervisors could previously review footage after arrests, use-of-force incidents or complaints from the public.

 

The body camera captured the incident even after the officer tried to disable it because of a two-minute buffer, which saves footage recorded for two minutes before the device is turned on, the Associated Press reported. When the officer restarted the camera at the scene, it saved the preceding two minutes and allegedly caught him abusing the corpse.

Forget jail, if anyone else did that, they’d never work again.

 

Two weeks of jail and three years of probation seems fine for a first time offender while crazy drunk. I don't think most people would get a reasonable sentence here, but that doesn't mean everyone should get unreasonable sentences.

 

That all said, yeah, going back to work is just crazy. Here's video of a guy hurling racial slurs at a black family after breaking into their house. That guy could work at a factory and he would be fired when folks on social media start tagging their CEO and marketing team.
