    The Orange County Board of Supervisors Tuesday approved a $195,000 settlement in a lawsuit filed after an off-duty deputy pulled a gun on a group of teens at a San Clemente skatepark almost two years ago. Taxpayers on the hook AGAIN for a pig's criminal activity.

      Florida's New Law Against Blocking Roads During Protests Already Being Ignored By Cops Policing Protests The Governor Supports

      Just a few months ago, Florida governor Ron DeSantis signed a broadly-written anti-protest bill that, among other things, criminalized the act of participating in a protest if other protesters did illegal things. It also criminalized the blocking of traffic and roadways by protesters, something that was already illegal but now was super-illegal with enhanced punishments that made this act a felony.

      This was the Florida legislature's response to anti-police violence and Black Lives Matters protests in the state -- protests that became far more frequent and intense following the killing of Minnesota resident George Floyd by Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin.

      Failing (perhaps deliberately) to recognize a lighter law enforcement touch was needed to regain the trust of the public, DeSantis and likeminded legislators doubled down, making the very act of protesting police violence an opportunity to be hit with felony charges.

      The new law is in the news because it very much appears it won't be enforced equitably. Miami's Local 10 wants to know why the new law wasn't deployed to stop Cuban solidarity protesters from blocking highways during recent demonstration

      “All of a sudden you have people out there shutting down a highway. They start to do that, there needs to be swift penalties.”

      Those were Gov. Ron DeSantis’ words back in April when he signed a controversial anti-riot bill.

      On Tuesday?

      “I think people understand the difference between going out and peacefully assembling, which is obviously people’s constitutional right,” DeSantis said on a day when South Floridians stood in solidarity with Cuban citizens’ protests by taking to the Palmetto Expressway and closing it down for hours.

      The Associated Press also amplified questions about this apparent divergence from a law supposedly desperately needed to keep protests from shutting down cities.

      "Demonstrators on Tuesday in Miami, Tampa and Orlando temporarily blocked busy roads, chanting support for the Cubans who had taken to the streets in the communist nation Sunday to air grievances about poor economic conditions and other issues.

      'When they protest for regime change, which aligns with the governor’s political viewpoint ... you see no enforcement from law enforcement,' said Michael Sampson, who co-founded the Jacksonville Community Action Committee, one of many groups that sprung up under the banner of the Black Lives Matter movement."

      The governor had no real explanation for why officers were not only not arresting people for blocking roads, but waving people through police lines so they could head up ramps to access the highways they would soon be blocking. The only comment DeSantis offered was that this protest wasn't the kind of protest he felt needed to be shut down.

      During a visit to Miami on Tuesday, DeSantis said the demonstrations in South Florida were “fundamentally different than what we saw last summer.”

      The statement made by Christina Pushaw, the governor's spokesperson, wasn't any better.

      “The legislation protects First Amendment freedoms, while ensuring that law enforcement professionals are empowered to use their discretion to maintain public safety,” Pushaw said. “The Governor has always urged all Floridians exercising their right to protest, to make their voices heard peacefully and lawfully.”

      Well, ok then. I guess we'll see what happens the next time BLM protesters take to the streets and block a few of them off. If DeSantis doesn't want to look like he only respects the rights of people he agrees with, he'll need to keep cops from exercising their discretion and arresting people protesting against unequal treatment by law enforcement.

                Cop Awarded Officer of the Year Despite Not Working a Single Day in 2020

                In June, Detective Eric Walterscheid stood behind the podium before the El Monte City Council’s last meeting to honor Officer Carlos Molina. Walterscheid bestowed upon him the prestigious Police Officers Association’s Officer of the Year award for 2020.

                “He’s been with us for 21 years,” Walterscheid said. “I remember when he first walked into the detective bureau — his leather was squeaking. I read his reports. I said, ‘Go into detectives! You’re an excellent investigator!’ He never looked back.”

                While a dozen officers in the room said nothing, others looked on in disbelief that Molina was chosen for the award given the fact that before he received officer of the year, Molina hadn’t worked in the last 19 months.

                According to the San Gabriel Valley Tribune, Tom Madruga, a contract attorney for the city pointed out that Molina has been on paid administrative leave from September 2019 to April 2021. He was given an award for a period in which he essentially spent on vacation — earning over $200,000 for not even lifting a finger in official police capacity.

                As the Tribune reports, Molina was under investigation for how he handled his last case involving child abuse:

                "Molina, a detective at the time, was placed on leave because he spent a year working on a child abuse investigation that yielded little work product, sources close to the investigation said on condition of anonymity. Additionally, he charged the city for 42 hours of overtime pay — equating to more than $4,400 — during that period.

                Moilna was probing the alleged physical abuse of 23-month-old Britalin Vasquez at the hands of her mother, Donica Vasquez, and stepfather, Oswaldo Eduardo Chan. Molina’s investigation spanned from Oct. 24, 2018, to Oct. 1, 2019, when the case was yanked from him and turned over to Detective Pedro Yanez.

                Yanez closed the case in 44 days, submitting it to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office on Nov. 13, 2019. Prosecutors subsequently filed felony child abuse charges against Chan and Vasquez.

                Britalin Vasquez, now 4, suffered bone fractures and burns, a district attorney’s spokeswoman said. Chan and Donica Vasquez will next appear in Los Angeles County Superior Court in Pomona for a pretrial hearing on Aug. 9.

                Meanwhile, the administrative investigation was launched into Molina’s handling of the case. Although he was allowed to return to the force after 19 months off the job, he was reassigned as a patrol officer. The administrative investigation is still pending arbitration, according to sources close to the case."

                According to the report, some of the officers thought Molina’s officer of the year award was merely a bad joke to possibly embarrass police chief David Reynoso.

                “I feel (Molina) received the votes as a joke or a way to send a message of dissatisfaction,” Sgt. Jimmie Pitts said in an email sent to the entire City Council the night before the June 29 council meeting, according to the Tribune.

                Pitts tried to get the council to stop the award pointing out that it would be a “disservice to the members of the EMPOA, the City Council and city residents if the awards ceremony moved forward.”

                “If the public or media learned that the City Council publicly recognized a police officer who did not work a single day in 2020, but was paid his full salary for the entire year, it could bring unneeded negative attention to our EMPOA, City and Police Department,” Pitts said in his email.

                Well, now we have learned this and the Mayor, council members, and police union look rather silly for refusing to listen to Pitts.

                Adding insult to injury is the fact that City Councilman Martin Herrera shared Pitts concerns but was also ignored.

                “(Molina) did not perform anything in 2020, so how does he get awarded (officer of the year) when there were other deserving officers,” Herrera said. “I think it’s an affront to the city administration and to the council itself. I think the board is being antagonistic, just to be contrary to the city manager and police chief. Why else would they do something like this?”

                      These oath breakers were caught planting evidence and staging the scene in an attempt to justify their criminal behavior and complete lack of investigatory skills. Pigs.

                                WATCH: Cop with His Fly Down Busted on Live Stream Attempting to Lure a Child for Sex

                                Atlantic City, NJ — Across the country brave individuals provide a much needed service to society by launching undercover stings to ensnare child predators. These vigilante groups pose as children online and allow the predators to do all the talking as not to entrap them before scheduling a meeting and exposing the pedophiles.

                                The template for these encounters usually involves the alleged pedophile showing up to meet who they think is a child, and meeting the pedophile hunter instead. This is the same method employed by the highly popular show To Catch a Predator.

                                The group Colorado Ped Patrol is one of the most successful of these organizations and has a record of over 90 confrontations in just the last three months — highlighting the serious problem of online predators attempting to meet children. One of the alleged predators to be ensnared by their tactics is making headlines this week as his job consisted of locking people like himself up.

                                The Central Bucks Regional Police Department was exposed this week for having a child predator within their ranks. Officer Clifford Horn, 54, of Chalfont, PA, was busted by the Ped Patrol this week and his arrest was livestreamed directly to YouTube.

                                “They would confront the individual and notify local law enforcement. The citizens provided the responding officers with screen shots of conversations and detailed information that was shared between the citizens and the suspects,” Atlantic City police said in a press release.

                                According to the group, Horn used the Grindr app to arrange a meeting with a person he thought was a 14-year-old boy for sex. The group gave police screen shots of their exchange, which included a photo of the officer in his underwear.

                                In a statement, District Attorney Matt Weintraub said his office “will begin the process of evaluating all Bucks County criminal cases in which Cpl. Horn was involved.

                                “The Bucks County District Attorney’s Office is aware of the investigation and arrest of CBRPD Corporal Clifford Horn in Atlantic County, New Jersey,” Weintraub said. “Our office has assigned personnel to assist New Jersey authorities in any capacity, and to investigate and prosecute any criminal activity that may have occurred in Bucks County. This office protects all victims, regardless of whether the accused perpetrator is an officer of the law or not.”

                                “I know he was something because he wouldn’t answer, he didn’t want to incriminate himself. He didn’t want to talk,” Thomas Fellows, the founder of Colorado Ped Patrol, told ABC 6.

                                Fellows has been conducting these stings for the last five months since he founded the Ped Patrol and his actions have helped police make dozens of arrests. Fellows says he started the group because his own son was molested.

                                “My brother-in-law molested my son seven years ago, so that’s the reason why I do this today,” Fellows said.

                                                “You’re killing me!” Cops Arrested After Bashing Man’s Face in With a Gun, Strangling Him

                                                Aurora, CO — In his last few words on this planet, an aspiring massage therapist from Aurora, Elijah McClain could be heard saying, “I’m an introvert. I’m just different. That’s all. I’m so sorry. I have no gun. I don’t do that stuff. I don’t do any fighting. Why are you attacking me? I don’t even kill flies! I don’t eat meat! But I don’t judge people, I don’t judge people who do eat meat. Forgive me … I’m so sorry.”

                                                He was innocent, successful, and a light in this often dark world, and Aurora police killed him for being different. Then, after they killed him, they went back to the scene of the crime and reenacted it for fun. This is not some case of a bad apple. This is systemic and sadistic and shortly after these atrocities, the department made the news several more times. Now, they are in the news once again, this time for doing the same thing to another man, Kyle Vinson. Luckily for Vinson, however, he was not killed and his attackers are now in jail.

                                                Vinson’s attack took place last Friday and the body camera footage was just released this week.

                                                “The video will strike your conscience,” said Aurora Police Chief Vanessa Wilson to reporters on Tuesday. “I know as I watched it I felt myself welling up with tears as well as anger.”

                                                Indeed, this is exactly what the video does.

                                                According to police, Aurora officers John Haubert and Francine Martinez stopped three young men who were hanging out in a parking lot. While detaining them, they ran their names and claimed that all three of them had outstanding warrants. Two of the young men the fled while Kyle Vinson remained seated and cooperated with police.

                                                However, his cooperation was no defense against Haubert’s violent attack that followed.

                                                As Vinson lie facedown on the ground, Haubert begins strangling him as he bashes his gun into Vinson’s skull. Blood begins pouring from Vinson’s face and head, seemingly inspiring the violent cop to dish out more abuse.

                                                At this point, Vinson is begging for the officer to stop, literally crying, saying “Please stop! Don’t shoot me,” and “You’re killing me!”

                                                As the assault continued, Vinson started crying for help from anyone who could hear him. But no help would come.

                                                “If you move I will shoot you,” Haubert says as he strangles Vinson for nearly a minute causing him to start losing consciousness.

                                                Eventually, another officer arrives on the scene and thinks Haubert is the victim so he tasered Vinson. Vinson was then handcuffed but he did not go to jail. He was brought to the hospital instead.

                                                “We’re disgusted. We’re angry. This is not police work,” Wilson said. “We don’t train this. It is not acceptable.”

                                                She also stated that it was likely that Vinson didn’t know there was a warrant out for his arrest because it was from another county.

                                                On Tuesday, both Haubert and Martinez was arrested and booked into jail for their crimes. Haubert was charged with attempted first-degree assault, second-degree assault, oppression, felony menacing and first-degree official misconduct. Martinez was charged with failing to intervene and report use of force by a peace officer. Haubert has been placed on unpaid leave while Martinez is currently on paid leave.

                                                “We will continue to do training and we will continue to take people out of this agency if that is how they’re going to police,” Wilson said. “It’s not right.”

                                                “I hope that the transparency that we’re giving you here today, as well as the swift action by our police department can make some of you believe that we are trying to do the right thing,” she said. “We are trying to reform, and we are trying to make a difference. This is not the Aurora police department.”

                                                According to Colorado Public Radio, Vinson is now being represented by a Denver civil rights firm, which in a statement Tuesday said the “vicious, unprovoked assault” on him “illuminates the ongoing issue of police violence, particularly against communities of color.”

                                                    This pig was fired from his department after his arrest, but yet he claimed he needed the partially assembled pipe bomb for training. Training for what? He's no longer a LEO.

                                                        Off-Duty LPD Officer Arrested

                                                        On Wednesday July 28, 2021, at approximately 3:00 A.M., Off-duty Laredo Police Department Officer, Carlos Ibarra (Age 26) was arrested at the 10900 of International Blvd and charged with Assault Family Violence Impede Breath/Circulation F/3 and Assault Causes Bodily Injury Family Violence C/A.

                                                        The arrest was the result of a call for service at 2:18 A.M. on July 28, 2021 at the 9800 block of McPherson Rd. Initial call information indicated a possible fight had occurred at the location. Officers arrived on scene and immediately initiated their investigation into the incident. Information and evidence collected indicated a male subject had assaulted a female subject on the premise to include strangling her. The couple was no longer on the premise while officers conducted their initial investigation. The male subject was later identified as Ibarra and eventually located at the 10900 of International Blvd where he was placed under arrest. Ibarra, a 2yr veteran of the Police Department, has been placed on administrative re-assignment pending the outcome of the internal investigation.

                                                          ‘I Caused the Death’: Cop With Beer in Car, Admits He Killed Woman in Crash, NOT Arrested or Fired

                                                          San Marcos, TX — In June of 2020, Sgt. Ryan Hartman was drinking and driving when we stopped “paying attention” and crashed into a car occupied by Jennifer Miller and her life partner, Pam Watts. The crash would put Watts in the hospital and her partner in the ground. It has been over a year since Hartman killed Miller and not only have police refused to arrest him, but he’s back on duty.

                                                          This is not some case with no evidence or disputed facts. According to body camera footage that was released this week, Hartman admitted that his lack of attention caused Miller’s death and police found an open Dos Equis beer in his truck.

                                                          “I caused the death of somebody buy me not paying attention,” Hartman says according to the newly released video. According to a search warrant carried out on Hartman’s phone after the crash, he was using his phone whilst drinking a beer.

                                                          Despite finding a beer can in his truck and admitting that he caused Miller’s death, Hartman was not arrested that day — or any day after. Instead, he was put on paid vacation for five months while his office “investigated” the crash. Hartman received blue privilege from the start.

                                                          After the crash, Hartman refused a breathalyzer and police waited over eight hours to get a warrant for a blood draw. Since so much time had passed after the crash, Hartman still had alcohol in his system but his levels had fallen below the legal limit.

                                                          Highlighting the nature of Hartman’s blue privilege was the fact that the neighboring department who responded to the crash, the Lockhart Police Department, recommended charges of negligent homicide. However, the investigation was turned over to Hartman’s department, the San Marcos Police Department.

                                                          That investigation was subsequently passed to Bastrop County District Attorney Bryan Goertz, who chose not to send Hartman’s case before a grand jury.

                                                          “I conducted my own review of the investigation of Mr. Hartmann for violation of Texas’s misdemeanor offense of texting while driving and causing a fatality and concluded that no criminal prosecution could be sustained based upon the facts of this case. While the forensic analysis of his phone supported his admission that he was on the phone at the time of the crash (not illegal), there was NO evidence to suggest he was texting.”

                                                          Goertz failed to mention the fact that he was drinking, however.

                                                          In November, Hartman went back to work. According to the University Star, he was reinstated to his job 180 days before the accident had passed. Under Texas law and union contract, officer discipline should be issued within 180 days of an incident’s occurrence. More blue privilege.

                                                          Since that day, Watts and other advocates have been fighting for accountability and over the weekend, held a protest in front of the department demanding Hartman be arrested or at the very least fired for killing Miller.

                                                          “Law is law, right is right and wrong is wrong,” Watts said. “It doesn’t matter what your career path in life or who you are in life, the rules should be the same, and it should be equally applied to everybody, and we need to start getting that right in this country. I think we need to start with accountability, everybody needs to be personally accountable for their actions, doesn’t matter who you are and he has not been held accountable.”

                                                          Sadly for Watts, thanks to blue privilege, it appears that her life partner’s killer will never be held accountable.

                                                                  Phoenix, AZ — As TFTP frequently reports, the thin blue line is not so thin when it comes to officers covering up the crimes of their colleagues. While murder and brutality are at the forefront of the blue code of silence, often times, predator cops, who use their badges to prey on women and children, are often given a pass by their departments as their list of victims grows.

                                                                  Former Phoenix police officer Sean Pena is one of these cops, according to several lawsuits, who was allowed to go on raping for years because his department refused to act.

                                                                  Lisa Gutierrez filed her lawsuit this month against Pena and the City of Phoenix over allegations that Pena sexually assaulted her in his patrol car, while on duty. Adding credence to her claims is the fact that Pena was indicted by a grand jury last August on felony charges for sexually assaulting three women, one of whom was Gutierrez.

                                                                  He was fired shortly before the indictment, in a likely attempt by the department to distance themselves from this alleged serial rapist cop. According to a report in the Phoenix New Times:

                                                                  "Gutierrez, who is described in the lawsuit as a black woman, alleges that on August 5, 2019, she called the Phoenix Police Department due to a vague 'incident with a family friend.' Pena, along with another Phoenix police officer, Antonia Felix, responded to the call. Gutierrez was placed in the back of Pena’s patrol car and they drove to the home of a suspect for 'identification purposes.' When Pena dropped her off back at her house, he allegedly commented that her then-boyfriend had a misdemeanor warrant, that he could take him into custody, and that her shirt was 'see-through.'

                                                                  At 11:00 p.m. that evening, Gutierrez was walking home from the grocery store when she saw Pena parked outside her house inside his patrol car. Pena told her to come to his car, which she did. He proceeded to grab her hand and place it on his 'exposed penis,' the suit states. Pena allegedly made statements like 'Did you like that?' and 'Is this big enough for you?' per the complaint. He finally let Gutierrez go and told her that he would call her in an hour.

                                                                  After walking home in a panic, Gutierrez received a call from Pena while she was inside her house with her daughter and ex-boyfriend. He told her to meet him in a field (the complaint doesn’t specify where exactly). Gutierrez complied. According to the lawsuit, Pena’s cell phone records showed that he called Gutierrez eight times between 10:44 p.m. and 11:05 p.m. that evening."

                                                                  “Because Defendant Pena was a police officer, Plaintiff felt obligated to go to the field as she feared for the lives and safety of her child, herself and what could happen to her then-boyfriend,” the lawsuit states. “Plaintiff was afraid of Defendant Pena as he had already showed up at her home uninvited and forced sexual contact with Plaintiff. She was afraid that if she did not comply, she would be killed.”

                                                                  Once in the field, Pena “forced” her to masturbate “inside his patrol vehicle while he exposed and fondled her breast” as he masturbated. He then pulled her face next to his crotch and she believed he was attempting to “ejaculate on her face.” After he sexually assaulted Gutierrez, he let her go and she went straight to the neighboring town of Tempe, to report her abuse to the Tempe Police in an attempt to bypass the blue code of silence within the Phoenix department. Her move would later lead to Pena’s arrest.

                                                                  According to her lawsuit, Pena had a history of similar on-duty sexual assaults but the department refused to investigate. The lawsuit states that after they swept 2018 sex assault allegations under the rug, the department didn’t “increase supervision” of Pena and his “sadistic history of sexual violence” was allowed to continue until they were unable to ignore it over a year later.

                                                                  The “lackadaisical nature of the investigation emboldened” Pena to “commit additional acts of sexual violence” by allowing “a sexual predator to continue patrolling the streets of Phoenix alone in a single-man unit with authority, a weapon and no supervision,” the lawsuit states.

                                                                  Pena is currently awaiting trial for his felony charges of rape. The taxpayers of Phoenix shelled out $425,000 last June to pay for another lawsuit against Pena by a victim with similar claims.

                                                                  While this case is certainly shocking, it is par for the course in regard to the blue code of silence. As we reported in April, documents were released detailing the abuse and cover-up of said abuse carried out by Patrick M. Rose Sr., the former president of the Boston Police Patrolmen’s Association and Boston PD detective.

                                                                  Rose has been charged with molesting children, and the documents prove the department knew, and allowed him to continue to serve in their ranks and even engage with children — for decades.

                                                                    2 Cops Found Guilty of Raping a Child in the Explorer Program, Claim Child Manipulated THEM

                                                                    New York, NY — Two NYPD officers have been fired after they were found guilty of the rape of a 15-year-old girl who reportedly wanted to be a police officer and was part of the department’s explorer program. Over the course of two years, officers Sanad Musallam, 34, and Yaser Shohatee, 41, groomed and abused their victim and are now being held accountable for their crimes.

                                                                    According to NYPD disciplinary documents made public this week (emphasis added):

                                                                    "Both Respondents have been found guilty of shocking professional and sexual misconduct. They abused the trust reposed in them by this Department and violated their oaths of office. It bears stating in explicit terms that The Minor was victimized by two uniformed Members of Service assigned to the same precinct. The evidence supports a finding that Respondents individually targeted The Minor as a particularly vulnerable individual they were morally obliged to protect but chose to take advantage of to satisfy their depraved interests."

                                                                    Beginning in 2015, and continuing into 2016, these two officers built a sadistic relationship with their victim, texting, calling, and repeatedly sexually abusing her. Showing just how difficult it is to hold bad cops accountable, the allegations were made in 2017 yet these two monsters remained on the payroll for four more years as the internal “investigation” took place.

                                                                    A spokesperson for Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez told Gothamist that the officers were not criminally charged at the time because their victim — who was a child — declined to participate in the legal proceedings.

                                                                    According to officer Shohatee, he first met the victim when her mother brought her to a local police department seeking help for her “problematic” behavior. At this time she joined the department’s Explorer Program, which helps to guide youths into becoming NYPD cops. But instead of guiding this youth into a law enforcement career, Shohatee began grooming her.

                                                                    Though Shohatee claimed his relationship with the girl was in a mentor-to-child status and completely professional, the court found otherwise. Assistant Deputy Commissioner of Trials Paul Gamble wrote that this narrative was “self-serving and largely unworthy of belief.”

                                                                    “This pattern of misconduct violates the long-standing moral and legal proscriptions against adults interacting with minors as if they were peers. The insidious and sinister nature of his repeated actions would cause any responsible adult, let alone a parent, to recoil in horror,” the judge wrote in his findings.

                                                                    Musallam could not claim that his actions were professional as investigators found hundreds of sexually explicit text messages on his phone, which were reportedly discovered by his own wife.

                                                                    Musallam was also found to have raped the girl while off duty.

                                                                    “Whether he retained the image as a trophy of his illicit relationship with The Minor or as a cudgel against her credibility, there is no reasonable explanation for his continued possession of the photograph that is consistent with innocence,” Judge Gamble wrote.

                                                                    Shamefully enough, the defense attorney for the officers claim that it was the girl who manipulated the officers and not the other way around, painting the adults, who were several decades older than the girl, as the victims in this case. Luckily, the judge did not buy this defense.


                                                                    Two officers being accused of raping a teen is unfortunately not an isolated incident in the NYPD. As we reported, Eddie Martins and Richard Hall, both NYPD officers received no jail time for allegedly handcuffing a teenager, placing her in the back of their unmarked police-issued van, while both officers raped her in the back of the van. They said the act was consensual. The teen, however, steadfastly held to her position she’d been raped. During the investigation and trial the cops’ defense team engaged in what many claimed was an elaborate character assassination both pre-trial and during the proceedings. Her lawyer relayed the broader implications.

                                                                    Michael David represented the teenager. He called the sentence “outrageous” and told reporters:

                                                                    "It’s sending the worst message to victims of police sexual misconduct in America, that police could kidnap someone, rape her, and throw her on the street, and get away with it."

                                                                    Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez reportedly wanted to see the two ex-cops behind bars but again blamed the victim for having inconsistencies in her allegations. However, it must be noted the prosecutor’s office is the one which offered the cops a plea deal.

                                                                    "These defendants engaged in a shocking abuse of power which they finally acknowledged…While I would have preferred to see them serve prison time, they are no longer members of our police department and with today’s plea are convicted felons."

                                                                    Martins and Hall were initially charged with rape, sexual assault, and kidnapping. However, in March of 2019, those charges were reduced to official misconduct and accepting a bribe, a far cry from the forceful, unwelcome, and unwanted rape the teen alleged took place.
