Cop Charged with Murder for Shooting, Killing Handcuffed Man Seat Belted In his Police Cruiser
Temple Hills, MD — In 2018, Sarah Wilson allegedly grabbed a gun and shot herself in the head while handcuffed in the back of a police cruiser. Her death was ruled a suicide. Victor White III, 22, was handcuffed in the back of a police cruiser in Louisiana and also allegedly grabbed a gun and shot himself in the back of a police cruiser. Like Wilson, his death was also ruled a suicide. Now, another man has been killed while handcuffed inside a police cruiser. This time, however, there is no chance of it being ruled a suicide as the man was shot seven times by the officer’s service weapon.
On Tuesday, Prince George’s County Police Chief Hank Stawinski announced murder, manslaughter, assault and weapons charges at a press conference. Cpl. Michael Owen Jr., a 10-year force veteran, allegedly shot the man, William Green , 43, of Washington, D.C., seven times.
“I have concluded that what happened last night is a crime,” Stawinski said. There was no “reasonable explanation” for the events, he said.
According to police, on Monday night, Prince George’s County police officers responded to reports that a driver had struck multiple vehicles. When they arrived on the scene, they found the driver, William Green. Temple Hills community, spokeswoman Christina Cotterman said the officers told her they believed the man was high on PCP because they could smell it.
While PCP does reportedly have an odor similar to magic markers, police claiming that a man was high on it without first conducting a toxicology exam is irresponsible at best and deliberately misleading at worst.
But there are other details to this story that paint an extremely sketchy picture. For starters, police were able to get the driver handcuffed without incident. We can deduce that it was without incident because officers claim they placed the Green in the front seat of the police cruiser after they handcuffed him.
Yes, you read that correctly. Officials told the media that it is normal for Prince George’s County police officers to place suspects in the front seats of their vehicles. Based on the thousands of police stories TFTP has reported over the years, the idea that it is department policy to allow suspects allegedly high on PCP to ride in the front seat of a police cruiser — handcuffed or not — is unbelievable, as in, we don’t believe it. TFTP has reported on incidents of police officers being arrested and asking to ride in the front seat to avoid embarrassment only to be denied by their arresting officers.
“A short time later, for reasons that are now at the center of the investigation, Green was shot seven times by the officer’s duty weapon,” the statement says.
Originally, police claim that once the officer hopped into the front seat with Green that a struggle ensued. Cotterman told reporters that police told her that “two independent witnesses told police they either saw or heard a struggle, and heard loud bangs coming from the cruiser.”
During this alleged “struggle” the officer pulled his weapon and fired multiple rounds into the handcuffed man who was seat belted into the front seat of the police cruiser who could not have possibly been a threat. Adding to the suspect nature of this shooting is the fact that the officer was not wearing a body camera so none of the incident was captured on video.
According to Cotterman, police are now conducting an investigation into the shooting and looking at nearby residences and businesses to see if any of the shooting was captured on surveillance footage.
“Once again, a Black man – William Green – has been killed needlessly by officers with the Prince George’s County Police Department,” reads a statement attributed to Deborah Jeon, the legal director for the ACLU of Maryland. “Once again, reports indicate that the unarmed man was in a disoriented state when he was shot and killed – after he was handcuffed and put into the patrol car. The police put Mr. Green in the front seat of the patrol car, next to the officer, who then shot Mr. Green multiple times at close range.”
The ACLU then criticized the fact that there was no video of the incident.
“There is reportedly no body camera footage that the man’s family and the community can use to assess the truth of PGPD’s claims. And there is good reason to question them.”

These cadets weren't smart enough to pass the exam without cheating. They were also not smart enough to cheat and not get caught, which is probably the true reason they were fired.
Not One, Not Two, But 30 State Troopers Fired for Cheating on Exam to Become Cops
Atlanta, GA — Dozens of cops in Georgia are tarnishing the badge once more after they were all fired this week. According to reports, 30 troopers with the Georgia State Patrol are now unemployed because they were found to have cheated on the test to become cops.
Hardly an “isolated incident,” Col. Mark McDonough, commissioner of the Department of Public Safety and head of GSP, said the entire class of students with the 106th trooper school is no longer after they cheated during an online test for speed detection in October of 2019.
Let that sink in. The entire class conspired to cheat on exams to become cops. Every single one of them was okay with fraudulently achieving their police status through conspiracy and cheating.
“It’s a punch in the gut,” McDonough told reporters Wednesday. “This goes to our very core values.”
According to the report, top DSP officials learned about the scandal from the girlfriend of one of the cadets, Demon Clark. The girlfriend told officials that she was the one who took the test for her cop boyfriend because he was apparently too ignorant to pass it. When officials asked Clark about the cheating, he was quick to rollover on his fellow brothers in blue, telling his superiors “he was not the only one who cheated, the whole class cheated.”
After snitching on fellow classmates, an investigation was launched and the true scope of the cheating scandal was discovered.
As WJBF reports:
According to the Department of Public Safety, during the investigation each cadet described the way they cheated and helped each other with the online exam. Investigators also found that the cadets used Snapchat, group messages and Google to find and share test answers.
The actions violated the department’s code of conduct policy and the decision to fire those involved was made after the investigation concluded Wednesday morning. Thirty-two were fired; one cadet resigned. The GSP is now trying to figure out how to deal with the loss of officers.
“The impact on average can be three or four troopers per region. When you look at the size of the region, for instance, Troop I on the coast, that’s pretty much the whole coastal 100-plus miles and then inland.” McDonough said. “You take three or four troopers … off the road and you see the distance of the interstate, they’re not being there can have an impact.”
With troopers like these, however, the public is likely better served without them on the force. Nevertheless, before they were all fired, the troopers were placed in 52 assignments across the state and began carrying out their duties of extorting drivers for speeding.
According to the Atlanta-Journal Constitution, the group had written a total of 133 speeding tickets since they graduated. McDonough said that information has been supplied to courts across the state, with the expectation that most of those violations will be dismissed.
As Georgia now struggles to replace the spots the previously filled by the corrupt troopers, they may have to turn to tactics like their neighbors in Kentucky. As TFTP previously reported, for many years, the bar was set pretty high for the state’s police force, which included the equivalent of two years of college and two years of experience as a member of the armed forces or police force. But in 2017, the KY state police announced they are taking applicants who hold a high school diploma, a GED, and three years of experience as a soldier or a cop.
In some odd form of double speak, the state troopers claimed that lowering the standards for state troopers is not lowering the standards for state troopers. Trooper David Loudermilk, a six-year veteran of the KY State Police told reporters the lowering of the entrance requirements doesn’t represent a lowering of standards for admittance.
“All we’re doing is widening the opportunity for people who maybe didn’t have the chance to go to college…We’re really opening a door for them to be able to fulfill their dream of coming on,” Loudermilk said.
Coincidentally, as the Free Thought Project has pointed out in the past, the training requirements for hairdressers are often times two or three-fold longer and more rigorous than training for police. In Kentucky, a licensed cosmetologist is required to undergo twice as much training as a state trooper.
Lowering the bar should come as no surprise given the fact that a federal court ruled police departments across the nation can discriminate against applicants who are too smart.
This decision by the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit to condone the ability of police departments to discriminate against smart people is one of the most profoundly ridiculous moves ever made. But it also tends to explain the state of police departments today.
( https://thefreethoughtproject.com/co...se-hire-smart/ )
It takes a special kind of person to go to work every day and harass, kidnap, and kill people for victimless crimes. The act of unquestioningly carrying out orders to ruin the lives of good people whose only “crime” was to do with their own body as they wish, would eventually have to raise the eyebrow of a person with a higher level of intelligence…or so we’d like to think.
Knowing that this ability to discriminate against intelligence in police departments exists coupled with the lowering of the academic bar tends to put ‘Police State USA’ in perspective. In the past decade, we’ve seen heavily militarized actions against non-violent protesters. We’ve even seen school districts accepting MRAPs. And we’ve watched from the sidelines as Mayberry transformed to Martial Law.
If more people knew this information you could rest assured that they would try and reform their police departments. No one wants their police officers to be unintelligent, right?

Horrifying Video Shows Officers Mock Suffering Father Until He Turned Blue and Died
Miami, OK — Terral Ellis, 26, had made a mistake. In 2015 he got a DUI and then missed his court date. It’s a mistake thousands of people make every week across the country but because of the horrifyingly corrupt and negligent jail staff in Oklahoma, this mistake would cost Ellis his life. Just 12 days after turning himself into the Ottawa County Jail for missing his court date, Ellis would die a slow and agonizing death—all of which was entirely preventable.
Ellis’ last hours alive were captured on the jail’s surveillance system and the resultant videos are nothing short of horrific. As he writhed in agony on the floor of his jail cell, officers mocked him and accused him of faking it. Even the jail’s nurse got in on the action and laughed at the “boy who cried wolf.”
“I’m sick and tired of f—ing dealing with your ass!” nurse Theresa Horn yelled. “Ain’t a damn thing nothing wrong with you!”
But there was something very wrong with Ellis and only a few hours later, this 26-year-old, with his entire life in front of him, would be dead. Although this incident unfolded in October of 2015, the gruesome surveillance footage was only just released. The multiple videos show how officers and other jail staff repeatedly ignored Ellis’ cries for help and even mocked him as he died a slow painful death. It also shows them ignoring the pleas from his cellmate and other inmates who could see the pain Ellis was in.
Sometime after turning himself in on October 10, 2015, Ellis would get pneumonia and eventually septic shock that would prove to be fatal because instead of receiving help, he was mocked and ignored.
“If you don’t have everything I have, this is just some kid who died in jail because he got sick,” said attorney Dan Smolen, referring to the detailed audio and video clips showing officers mocking a sick man until he turned blue and died. “I want people to understand this is happening, every day, all day long, in jails across the United States. I think it has just been captured [here] in a really awful way.”
Smolen specializes in lawsuits for in-custody deaths and has seen many “horrific jail death cases.” This one, however, he says was the worst.
“It’s a complete dehumanization of people in custody,” he said. “This video, this audio, really captures that.”
As the video shows, Ellis walked into the jail healthy. His grandfather had talked him into turning himself in and Ellis wanted to do the right thing to make his toddler son proud. Ellis was placed in a cell with Michael Harrington who would go on to document Ellis’ decline in health in a letter.
On October 21, Ellis began to have a seizure causing the other inmates to call for the officers. Bray and other officers again accused Ellis of faking it. Eventually paramedics were called and did not take all of Ellis’ vital signs because Bray told them he was faking and told them not to take him to the hospital.
Officers then punished Ellis for “faking” it and he was moved to an isolation cell with no toilet, no water, and no bed. They were supposed to check on him every 15 minutes, but despite logging the checks into the jail log, video shows they never checked on him.
Between 8:18 a.m. and 8:40 a.m. on October 22, Ellis again asks for help and is met with mocking remarks and denials from jail staff.
“Please, dude. Wait, dude. I can’t believe y’all are doing this! Help! Help! Help! Somebody Help! Help! Help!” Ellis said.
As he begs for help, officers can be heard on the video mocking him and refusing to call medical.
Instead of helping him, Ellis was threatened with being shackled to the floor. Hours later, at 1:38 p.m. Ellis was found unresponsive in his cell. At 2:03 p.m. he was hauled out on a gurney and finally brought to the hospital. But it was too late. Ellis would be pronounced dead on arrival.
“If it weren’t for the negligence and total disregard to human life, Terral would still be with us today,” Harrington wrote in his letter. “No one deserves to be treated like that. Something needs to be done.”
We agree. Sadly, however, nothing has been done. According to the Post, as of this week, nobody who interacted with Ellis during his time in jail has been criminally charged, nor was anyone formally disciplined, Smolen said, citing their investigation and depositions of those involved. The Ottawa County Sheriff, Jeremy Floyd, confirmed to The Washington Post that the two named detention officers in the suit, as well as Horn, were not disciplined or charged at the time. In the four years since Ellis’s death, all three have left as employees of the jail, Floyd said.
Below are the videos. Warning, they are extremely graphic.

WATCH: Guns Held to Child’s Head, Parents Trampled, Tasered as Cops Raid Wrong Home
Salt Lake City, UT — Imagine that you have just sat down to eat dinner with your family when your home is surrounded by militarized police, heavily armed and dressed in riot gear. Imagine these police are looking for a person who does not live in your house. Now imagine that you try to tell them this but they don’t listen and then break down your door, trample your family, hold guns to your kid’s head and taser innocent parents. For the Yanez family, no imagination is necessary as this is exactly what happened to them.
On August 20, 2018, the Yañez family sat down at the table to eat dinner when more than a dozen agents with the Utah Division of Adult Probation & Parole (AP&P), dressed in military-style gear and carrying assault-style weapons surrounded their home and demanded entry. The agents claimed to have a warrant but would not produce one despite repeated requests from the family.
When the family refused to let them in without first seeing the warrant, the police decided it was time to break down the doors and come in
What happened both before and after police entered the home was captured on video and is now the subject of a lawsuit against the AP&P and the executive director of the Utah Department of Corrections.
According to the lawsuit, once the heavily militarized agents entered the home, they tackled the mother, Maria, with a riot shield; pinned the father, Munir, to the ground and repeatedly shocked him with a Taser; pointed an automatic rifle at a child before handcuffing him; and forced the other two children to leap from the kitchen window.
The videos taken by the family show agents tackling 53-year-old Maria Garcia and her husband, 57-year-old Munir Yañez. Officers handcuffed Garcia and shocked Yañez with a Taser as he cried out in agony, all of which can be heard on the videos, one of which was recorded by their 17-year-old son.
The boy filming the incident must have angered the officers who then pointed guns at his head.
“As defendants entered the home, three defendants pointed assault rifles at (the 17-year-old’s) head, despite the fact that (he) did not pose a threat to the safety of them or any other officer,” the suit said. “(He) froze in fear at the sight of the weapons.”
“These shocking acts against the Yanez family in their own home is beyond the bounds of constitutional protections,” explained John Mejia, Legal Director of the ACLU of Utah. “No more Utah families should be subjected to these kind of excessive tactics.”
In a press release, the ACLU explained how officers likely knew the person they were looking for — the son of two of the plaintiffs — did not live there and had been told on multiple occasions, after showing up at the residence, that the man they were looking for does not and has not lived with the family for a long time.
Despite the person of interest not being in the home, according to the lawsuit, cops tore the home apart for two hours, stole the family’s money, and taunted them before falsely arresting Yañez and his son.
The complaint also alleges that “the agents stole $7,000 in savings that the Yañez family planned to use to pay for their only daughter’s Quinceanera party”; that agents taunted Yañez, who is a U.S. citizen, on the way to jail telling him that he’d “be back in Mexico tomorrow”; that Garcia saw agents place a kitchen knife where her adult son had been tackled and handcuffed in an effort to justify his arrest; and that Garcia was told she “must know where her son is because you are a Latina.”
“It is every family’s worst nightmare. You sit down to dinner as a family, and then agents storm into your home and brutally attack you in front of your children. We cannot allow this type of behavior by law enforcement to go unchecked. Crowell & Moring stands with the Yanez family in bravely pursuing these claims to ensure that this does not happen to other Utah families,” said S. Starling Marshall, Partner at Crowell & Moring LLP.
We agree.

Family Horrified to Find Cop on Nanny Cam in 3yo Daughter’s Room Sniffing Her Underwear
Phoenix, AZ — Imagine for a moment that you are a father and you get a motion alert from the nanny cam in your daughter’s room while you are at work. You grab your phone, open the app and find a strange man in your daughter’s room—sniffing her underwear. Well, that is what happened to a family in Phoenix and because the man smelling their daughter’s dirty underwear was a cop, he got off with no jail and unsupervised probation.
Now, this family is deathly afraid of this cop retaliating against them. Their worries are justified as he clearly faced zero accountability for his actions and as a result, he may think he can go after them too.
According to police, the incident happened last May when Deputy U.S. Marshal David Timothy Moon, 50, was touring a Phoenix home for sale. ABC 15 explained what happened next.
While his real estate agent was in another room, Moon went inside a 3-year-old girl’s bedroom, according to a police report. He focused on the laundry hamper in the corner. He dug through the dirty laundry and pulled out what appeared to be the girl’s underwear.
Video shows, Moon appeared to hold the underwear close to his face and appeared to smell them. Minutes later, he returned to the bedroom for a second round with the preschooler’s clothing. When he leaves the room for the second time, he appeared to notice the nanny cam. He quickly covered his mouth and said “goddamn it.”
Pointing out the disturbing nature of a grown man unable to control himself from grabbing a 3-year-old girl’s underwear and sniffing them, forensic psychologist John Delatorre, described what he saw as “compulsion,” according to ABC 15.
“This isn’t someone who’s unsure and needs to look around and tries to figure out — is this thing what arouses me?” Dr. Delatorre said. “He knows immediately.”
Adding to the disturbing nature of this cop’s actions is the fact that according to the police report, a girlfriend said Moon heard police were looking for him, so “he threw out his computer” and his Gmail account had a video of “girls doing gymnastics” in an email from “him to himself.”
Apparently this move had no bearing on the court who granted him blue privilege all the way through the till the end.
After the incident, Moon was arrested on two counts of felony trespassing with sexual motivation. However, due to his status as a cop, he later made a plea deal for misdemeanor trespassing and received a “sentence” of unsupervised probation.
“The actions by the defendant, in this case, show a need for evaluation, show a need for potential treatment, and that’s going to go unnoticed, untreated if there’s no evaluation done in this case,” said Deputy County Attorney Marcus Beecher during the proceedings.
But Judge Cooper denied those requests, even acknowledging that it is “unfair” and the court isn’t doing enough. She then cited the child predator cop’s “service” as reason to go easy on him. “The court believes that he is sincere in his remorse,” she said.
“It can seem unfair,” Judge Cooper said, acknowledging the victim family’s concerns. “It can seem like it’s not enough.”
Of course it was not enough. Now the family is concerned about what this child predator may do next.
“What if he comes back?” the dad said. “What if he tries to hurt us or our daughter? What if he loses his job and has nothing else to lose?”
After his arrest, Moon was fired. However, after his unsupervised probation ends, he could apply for the trespassing charge to be set aside and all instances of the record would be cleared and he can be a cop again—a chilling notion indeed.

California Cops Handcuff 16-year-old Boy Suffering Seizure for Not Complying
A 16-year-old autistic boy suffering a seizure inside a bathroom of a fast food restaurant Thursday night ended up handcuffed by police who determined he was somehow breaking the law.
The boy's mother told her daughter to call 911 after she found her son on the bathroom of a El Pollo Loco restaurant suffering a seizure.
But Fresno police arrived and tried arresting him when he would not comply with whatever orders they were giving him.
"We called paramedics for help, we did not call police," the boy's mother, Lourdes Ponce, told ABC 7. "He was not hurting anybody, he was having a seizure."
Ponce tried to tell officers her son is autistic but they continued arresting her son.
"He saw that my son was throwing up and instead of helping him so that he wouldn't choke on his vomit, they had him on the ground in handcuffs," she said.
It was only when she ran to her car to get paperwork proving he is autistic that police released him. But only after making her sign a "certificate of release."
Paramedics were then able to transport him to the hospital as originally intended where the boy is still being treated.
Ponce said she had taken him to a doctor earlier that day because of his seizures. She said they were at El Pollo Loco when she heard him fall.
"I stood outside the door, I heard him hit the floor, I tried to open the door but it was locked, that's when I asked for help," she said.
Employees unlocked the door and her daughter called 911, expecting paramedics to arrive.
But Fresno police arrived with nothing but their training and IQs to guide them, which is never safe.
Fresno police issued the following statement:
"This case is currently under Administrative Review. The review will include the examination of all the information pertaining to the officer's contact including Body Worn Cameras."
Ponce told ABC 7 the police officers need more training but they are behaving exactly as they are trained which is to control people, not help them.

Finally a few more details have been released, but no charges have been filed for the murder of 15-year-old Bradley Hulett, Jr. Probably because the murder weapon and the home where shooting took place are both owned by a blue line gang member, whose name has not been released even though the killing took place over six weeks ago. Some of the details are rather fishy. Especially the part about the "locked" bedroom, where the gun was supposedly located and accessed by the other three teenagers present at the time. The Hulett family wants answers and justice, but the blue line gang is dragging their feet. Something tells me that because and cop and his son are involved in this case, the Hulett family will not receive the answers and justice they so deserve.

The Sheriff’s Office has not released names of the teens or the officer. The Tampa Police Department also declined to release the officer’s name. A police spokeswoman said there will be an internal investigation when the Sheriff’s Office investigation is done. When the investigation concludes, Hillsborough State Attorney’s Office will decide whether anyone will be criminally charged.

One oath breaking tyrant gone and several thousand to go. This blue line gang member, Wayne Casey, was (and probably still is) completely ignorant of the law and the rights of the free people in this country. Jackboot Casey tries to copsplain his way out of his violations of the man's rights, but ends up looking like a dolt. The number of lies and misquotes of the law coming from this pig's pie hole are too numerous to count. When the man filming states how his rights were violated, the blue line thug copslains his way into a deeper hole of foolish denial and ignorance. Last week the city of Pevely shelled out $75,000 in a settlement for former officer Wayne Casey's criminal behavior while acting under the color of law.

Officer indicted by Grand Jury, not arrested, still being paid
An Orlando police officer was indicted on three counts of battery Thursday after it was discovered that he shoved and choked a man during a September 8 unlawful arrest.
Cpl. Frank Sikos, who according to state records, is no stranger to abusing his power, also withheld information from his report after he arrested Bennett Robinson. Additionally, Sikos lied in his report about the altercation and stated that the man was ordered to stand back but did not comply with a lawful order, making it seem as though Robinson was going to attack.
Sikos said Robinson was intoxicated and does not feel as though [he] did anything wrong.
The Orlando Police Department refused to provide any information, other than a generic prepared statement. The video and arrest affidavit had to be obtained from Robinson’s attorney, Richard Hornsby.
The incident occurred after neighbors reported seeing a man enter a construction site at approximately 3 a.m. in the 1400 block of Alden Road, Orlando, Florida.
When police arrived they approached Robinson and asked him for his identification and when Robinson tell Sikos that [he] has due process and approaches the officer, Sikos became angry.
Bodycam video shows Cpl. Frank Sikos shove Robinson to the ground and then choke him. Siko immediately began accusing Robinson of “resisting arrest.”
“Don’t you walk up to me like that!” Sikos shouted. “You wanna walk up to me like that and go to jail? Don’t you ever fu**ing walk up to me like that again!”
In the video Robinson can be seen attempting to sit up, however, Sikos shoved him back to the ground each time
Hornsby described Sikos as “a police officer on a power trip.”
Sikos is one of many Orlando officers involved in a 2010 lawsuit that cost the department $288,000 after they unlawfully arrested a man at his home and violated his rights for “horsing around” with a friend on the front lawn.
In the Robinson case, Hornsby said he wants to know why it took so long for the department to review the video after it was brought to their attention.
A Grand Jury indicted the officer, however, OPD did not arrest him. Instead, he was placed on paid leave and issued a citation to appear in court.
In a statement released Friday, OPD Chief Orlando Rolón, said, “The Orlando Police Department holds its officers to the highest standards.”
Sikos’ attorney said, “Corporal Sikos has served our community for over 20 years and is committed to defending his freedom, good name, and career in service to others.”
Hornsby said, “I definitely commend the State Attorney’s Office for pursuing the charges. Sikos’ written account of the arrest highly exaggerated, if not inaccurate.”
Robinson, who works in construction, says he was simply looking at the job site and tried to convey that information to Sikos.
It has also come into question why other officers stood around and watched as Sikos abused his power.
In an email to Ocala Post, Hornsby said a second officer who was on the scene also lied in a report.
In addition to the Robinson case, OPD is also being investigated for violating Freedom of the Press and Freedom of Information Act laws after they refusing to provide information to multiple media outlets.
Hornsby says the favoritism shown toward this officer is a double standard at best.
Robinson was arrested and charged with resisting arrest. The charges against Robinson were dropped after the State Attorney reviewed the video.

Another POS criminal wearing a costume and a badge gets the blue line privilege handed to him by his corrupt police department. Would ANY other person, other than a blue line gang member, have the luxury of not being charged and arrested for stealing money from someone's home while it was captured on video? Police departments like this one just continue to earn the distrust and hate by granting their criminal employees special treatment for obvious violations of the law they've all sworn to uphold.
Video Clearly Catches Cop Stealing Cash from a Home and He’s NOT Arrested
Bremerton, WA — A 15-year veteran special forces cop with the Bremerton Police Department was allowed to quietly resign this week amid allegations that he stole money during a drug raid in 2019. Despite clear video evidence of this cop committing a crime while on duty, Det. Jeffrey Inklebarger was not arrested and allowed to resign from the department before he was fired.
According to the report, Inklebarger was part of a team serving a search warrant over drug operation allegations at a home in February 2019. As this hero cop kept society “safe” from people voluntarily exchanging and ingesting substances, he was robbing them. His blatant theft was captured on multiple hidden cameras inside the home.
After watching the cop rob him, the homeowner brought the video to the attention of Bremerton Police officials last month through his attorney and an investigation was opened. According to the incident report:
"After viewing the video, the Bremerton Police Department took immediate action and Detective Inklebarger was placed on administrative leave. The Bremerton Police Department had no direct involvement in the criminal investigation. Detective Inklebarger was interviewed by Tacoma Police detectives on Friday, January 17, 2020. Tacoma Police investigators provided a preliminary briefing to Chief Burchett immediately following that interview. Detective Inklebarger was served with a notice of intended termination and Mr. Inklebarger resigned in lieu of termination on January 25, 2020."
After the incident, police themselves actually released the video in a show of transparency but they’ve yet to file any charges against this criminal cop. They have only released a statement claiming that this top cop stealing money on video doesn’t reflect the behavior of the rest of the department.
“We value the trust that the community has in the Bremerton Police Department and we will continue to work every day to earn and maintain that trust,” said Chief James Burchett. “Once we were made aware of the possible theft, we acted immediately. This was a betrayal of the oath of office and the law enforcement profession. Mr. Inklebarger’s actions do not reflect the values of the Bremerton Police Department nor are they representative of the ethical, hard working men and women of the Department.”
“The incident that occurred on the video does not represent the principles and practices of the City of Bremerton or our police department,” said Mayor Greg Wheeler. “The Bremerton Police have a reputation of being respectful, courteous and professional and are focused on maintaining the trust and confidence of the public. I am thoroughly behind our chief and police department and the values they uphold to serve our community at the highest level.”
If they want to maintain the trust of the public however, they need to hold this cop accountable. Quietly allowing him to resign before being fired is not holding him accountable at all. Had an average citizen been caught robbing someone’s home on video, rest assured they would have been arrested immediately. But because Inkelbarger was part of the system when he committed these crimes, he gets a pass.
The good news is that police are now investigating this cop’s past cases to see if other people have been robbed during drug raids carried out by this thief.
As you watch the video below, remember that prior to being caught stealing — which has likely happened many times before — this cop was considered a hero in his community. It is this blind trust in authority that allows corruption like this to flourish and will only come to a halt when the citizens refuse to be fleeced and demand accountability.

Horrifying Video Shows Cops Surround Sleeping Pregnant Mother and Execute Her
Dallas, TX — Genevive Dawes, 21, had harmed no one and committed no crime when multiple Dallas police officers surrounded her and her husband as they slept in their new car. However, because a trigger happy cop was on the scene that night, Dawes and the unborn child in her belly were executed. Now, the cop who opened fire on this pregnant mother of two is headed to trial.
The trial for former Dallas police officer Christopher Hess started on Tuesday. Unfortunately, Hess was not charged with murder for killing Dawes. Instead he was charged with aggravated assault by a public servant.
On that fateful night in January of 2017, Dawes and her common law husband Virgilio Rosales had just purchased a car and decided to go to sleep in a parking lot. This couple who was expecting their third child, unwittingly purchased the car without knowing it had been reported stolen which led to the overwhelmingly violent response from police.
When police arrived on the scene that night, they didn’t knock on a window or ask to see IDs. Instead, guns were drawn, spot lights were shown, and yelling commenced, sending this pregnant mother into a panic.
“She got scared,” Rosales said. “They got guns in her face. At first, she don’t know they are cops.” Rosales told FOX 4 Dawes nudged him awake. He said he could not see who was outside because they were shining flashlights into the car.
In her panic, Dawes began to slowly back up in an attempt to get away from the armed assailants who were quite literally preparing to murder her. As she very slowly backed up, she nudged a police cruiser and then began to move forward again toward a fence. As she slowly backed up again, body camera video shows Hess and his partner, Officer Jason Kimpel, firing 13 shots into the couple’s car.
The pregnant mother of two and her unborn third child would not survive the bullets tearing through her body and she died on scene.
After Hess and his partner killed the pregnant mother, Hess is heard on body camera footage claiming she was ramming their cars. However, this was not true. Hess also claimed that Dawes was attempting to kill the other officers as she backed up. Again, however, this was not true.
The video clearly shows that as the car slowly backed up, there were no officers behind it — not to mention the fact that it was moving slower than an idle.
“To see the loss of life that I didn’t think had to happen was something that did upset me, “ said Former DPD Assistant Chief Randy Blankenbaker ,who was the assistant chief over the Special Investigative Unit that looked into the shooting. He said Hess told investigators he thought other officers were in danger of being run over, so he fired his weapon, according to WFAA.
But as the body camera video clearly shows, that is not true at all. No cops were behind the car as the pregnant Dawes was driving so slowly officers simply walked out of the way.
He said the video proves the officers violated the use of force policy. “You are responsible for every round that leaves your weapon. You are told that every time you go to the pistol range,” says Blankenbaker.
Blankenbaker, also pointed out how irresponsible it was for officers to shoot into a car in the first place. “You don’t know what is in that vehicle there could have been children in the back seat that could have been shot and killed,” he said.
After shooting and killing the pregnant mother of two, Hess was fired and arrested. However, Kimpel, who fired a single shot into the car was not indicted or fired but was suspended. He is still on the force despite Blankenbaker’s protest.
“I certainly made the argument at the time that Kimpel should have been terminated and should have been held accountable to that level at least,” said Blankenbaker.
We agree. At least for now, one of these killer cops is in the process of accountability. Hopefully, he gets it.
Below is this most disturbing footage in its entirety. WARNING: It is graphic.

WATCH: Utah Cops Break into Home of Family with Non-Existent Warrants
The family which recorded the raid has filed a lawsuit.
In the latest example of state-sanctioned terrorism, a throng of cops broke into the home of a family in Utah without a warrant, tasering a 57-year-old man out of spite and malice for not welcoming them into his home when they showed up with riot shields, battering rams and a litany of lies as to why they should be let in.
The cops were from the Utah Division of Adult Probation & Parole and were looking for the man's son, José Yañez, who had not lived at the house for at least a year.
And the cops seemed to have known that because the address listed on their arrest warrant differed from his parent's address which is why they deliberately left the warrant behind when they conducted the raid, according to a lawsuit filed last week by the ACLU on behalf of the family.
The incident took place in August 2018 and began when Munir Yañez, the father, would not let them into his home without a warrant. One cop kept showing Yañez a document claiming to be a warrant but the lawsuit states it was probably just a front page to their son's internal files.
The cops did not give up, threatening, bullying and intimidating him until they finally made their way inside the house where tasered the father, shoved the mother to the ground with a shield and handcuffed the kids to keep them from recording.
The cops placed the father and son facedown in handcuffs in their front yard in full display of their neighbors who had no idea what was going on, keeping them there for two-and-a-half hours while they ransacked the house.
While he was handcuffed in the front yard, one cop took his fingerprints against his will. They then transported Yañez, who is an American citizen, to jail, mocking him by telling him he would be deported the following day but releasing him the following day with no charges.
The cops seemed more intent on sending a sadistic message of control and dominance, probably thinking since the family was Mexican and the parents spoke little English that they would get away with it all as cops do daily across the country.
But both the father and one of his sons recorded the abuse which makes it a much stronger case in court– not that any of the individual officers have anything to worry about as they are a protected class.
The 62-page lawsuit which can be read here (below) also accuses the Utah Division of Adult Probation & Parole of conspiring with a local bond company to conduct the raid which was desperate to arrest Jose Yañez because he was about to default on his bond, which would come at a financial loss for the company.

WATCH: Sadistic Cops Taser Innocent Man in the Back While On His Knees With His Hands Up
Austin, TX — On February 16, 2018, Quentin Perkins had committed no crime, had harmed no one, and was merely sitting in a park when police officers ran up on him and began barking orders. Not wanting to get shot or beaten, Perkins complied with everything police told him to do. He got on his knees and put his hands on his head.
Despite complying and presenting no threat whatsoever, Perkins was sadistically tasered in the back and assaulted. The two officers responsible were both fired and charged with multiple crimes for the tasering and for covering it up. However, because so many people are blinded by the badge, those two officers were acquitted and the taxpayers were held liable instead.
The facts of the case are indisputable. Austin police officer Robert Pfaff tasered Quentin Perkins in the back as Perkins was on his knees with his hands on his head. After tasering the innocent compliant man, both Pfaff and Donald Petraitis, another former officer, falsely claimed in their reports that Perkins was attempting to flee so they had no other choice.
The evidence was so clear that a cover up and official oppression had taken place that Austin public safety commissioner Chris Harris and Police Chief Brian Manley both pointed it out. The officers were subsequently charged with tampering with physical evidence and official oppression.
Despite the facts of the case, a jury acquitted both officers. However, knowing that these officers assaulted an innocent man and conspired to cover it up, Chief Manley did the right thing and fired both of them, despite their acquittal.
“I find it improbable that both officers came up with a similar version of events, which included things that did not happen … as well as not recalling what actually did happen,” Manley wrote. “I have serious concerns that Officer Pfaff and Petraitis got their stories straight before they spoke with (a supervisor) and prepared their reports and the probable cause affidavit.”
In the footage, which is captured by a third officer’s body camera, we see Pfaff and Petraitis encircle a group of men who were standing around another man who had just been shot. Not being involved in the incident, Perkins started walking away until the officers yelled at him to get down. He then got down on his knees and put his hands on his head.
It was at this point that Pfaff shot him in the back with his taser and began yelling at him to comply as he writhed in agony on the ground.
“It seems so clear that the chief was justified in firing these officers, particularly considering that their written reports don’t match up with the video,” Harris said.
In their disciplinary records, Manley stated that he fired the officers because their official stories of what happened were “simply not true.”
Despite the chief’s statements, the police union was quick to defend the cops and claimed their actions were entirely justified.
“The officers were exonerated through the court system,” Ken Casaday, Austin police union president, said. “The jury has seen the video and had no problems with it being criminal in nature. We hope the arbitrator sees the same on policy and procedure.”
After the trial, the case was swept under the rug and deliberately kept out of public view despite Perkins successfully settling a suit against the city for $75,000.
The video was only just released this week after commissioner Harris filed a request to unseal it. It speaks for itself. There were multiple men on their knees complying with cops, but they chose to taser the man with dark skin leading to some in the community to claim the officers were racist.
Adding insult to official oppression is the fact that both officers have since appealed their firings and will likely be reinstated. Even if they aren’t hired back on with the APD, they have not lost their licenses and will become gypsy cops and get hired on at another department where they will likely strike again.

Wife Reports Cop for Domestic Violence, Days Later She’s Found with a Bullet in Her Head
A simple Google search will illustrate how police officers are arrested for domestic violence on a near-weekly basis. It is also estimated that the incident rate for domestic violence is likely far higher than reported as many women stay silent out of fear of retaliation and the fact that their abuser’s brothers in blue will cover for them.
Proving the notion as to why women are scared to turn in their abuser husbands is a case out of Georgia this week. Amanda Perrault’s experience with her police officer abuser turned fatal after she reported him.
Last week, Perrault, 44, reported her police officer husband, Michael Perrault for abusing her. After she reported him, Michael Perrault was arrested and charged with simple battery, family violence and cruelty to children in the third degree.
Amanda claimed her husband hit her in the face and pushed her out of their front door. This claim was backed up by the couple’s 8-year-old daughter who witnessed it and the fact that she had physical signs of injury to her body. The officer admitted he had been drinking and taking prescription medication prior to the alleged confrontation as well.
Michael Perrault was almost immediately released. On Monday, Amanda Perrault was found dead in her home, shot once in the head with a .380-caliber handgun.
When police questioned Michael Perrault, despite having a record of abusing his wife, he was not arrested and let go. He claimed that during a heated argument, Amanda Perrault produced the gun and quickly shot herself in the head before he could stop her.
“The bottom line is that he (Michael Perrault) says they were arguing and then she suddenly produced a gun and shot herself,” Sills told the AJC earlier this week. “I’ve either got a suicide or a murder,” Sills said. “That’s what I have. I mean it’s just that simple. It could be either way.”
After the GBI was called in to investigate, they quickly ruled it a homicide and arrested Michael on Wednesday night on a charge of murder.
The girl was at school during the time of her mother’s death, the newspaper reports.
“Apparently there was a lack of tranquility since the officer’s [family violence] arrest last week,” Sills told the newspaper. That is the understatement of the year.
As TFTP has previously noted, a report by a government-appointed watchdog group shows that most of the time, abusive officers who commit these crimes, do so with seeming impunity. The above case is a perfect example of why that is so.
Sadly, it is estimated that many of the abused women never come forward as they know the likely result — which is getting shamed by the department for reporting it and potentially more abuse.
These fears can make someone feel incredibly trapped and feel like there is no way out. If you or someone you know is a victim of this type of abuse we encourage you to no longer remain silent. As long as people go unpunished for their abuse, they will continue to dole it out. Leave the county, report it to the federal government, and get as far away from them as you can.

Colorado district attorney 'incredibly frustrated' he's unable to prosecute cop found drunk in patrol car
A Colorado district attorney expressed frustration Thursday at not being able to prosecute an Aurora police officer who was found passed out drunk in his car last year, calling the department’s failure to launch a DUI investigation a double standard meant to protect one of its own.
Officer Nathan Meier was found unresponsive in his city-owned police car parked in the middle of an Aurora street on March 29, 2019. Meier was armed and in uniform. Officers, including Deputy Chief Paul O'Keefe who was the first police official on the scene, reported smelling a faint smell of alcohol on Meier and in his vehicle.
“He’s a little intoxicated,” one lieutenant tells another in a conversation captured on body-worn camera footage.
Despite the apparent signs that the officer was intoxicated, District Attorney George Brauchler says O’Keefe later told internal affairs investigators that he felt he didn’t have enough evidence for a DUI investigation and that he “erred on the side of protecting [Meier].”
“I am incredibly frustrated,” Brauchler said. “Bottom line is if one of us had been in that car, and not officer Nathan Meier, do I think it would it have been treated differently? I do.”
Brauchler stopped short of calling the incident a cover-up, saying it appears to be an anomaly and praising the Aurora police department overall.
“I think this became an 'ignorance is bliss' moment,” Brauchler said. “I don’t think it’s a cover-up, but it’s a couple blocks from it.”
The Aurora Police Department has not yet offered a formal response, but told ABC News that Meier remains employed in a “non-enforcement capacity”.
Brauchler said none of the eight Aurora police officers on scene told firefighters or EMS personnel that they had smelled alcohol. As a result, paramedics suspected Meier might have been experiencing a stroke or suffering from opioid exposure. A DUI specialist dispatched to the hospital where Meier was taken was told to stand down, Brauchler added.
Brauchler said "there was no attempt, ever, to seek Meier's" blood or begin a DUI investigation by Aurora police.
Medical staff at the hospital he was taken to had drawn Meier's blood and results indicated his blood-alcohol level was five times over the legal limit. However, Brauchler said he couldn't use the hospital's test results to prosecute Meier for a DUI because of medical privacy and a law that prevents information compelled as part of an internal affairs report from being used by prosecutors.
Brauchler said that if Aurora police had handled the investigation properly, Meier could have faced several charges, including driving under the influence and being intoxicated while carrying a firearm.

Another case of blue line privilege. This time it's officer William Ollie Alexander, a rapist thug who donned his blue zero hero costume and badge while violently raping a woman. The rapist pig's father even had the audacity to say this in court:
“I understand he made a moral mistake. My son is a law enforcement officer. I think you, I and all the men and women of the jury know what happens to law enforcement officers in prison.”
A moral mistake? GTFO. This rape was premeditated. Alexander lied to his superiors that night claiming one of his children was in the hospital so he could leave his shift early to carry out his criminal sexual assault plan. We all know dirty cops may be in for a rough time in prison. So what. Doing time in prison for committing crimes isn't meant to be a fairy tale vacation. Do the crime, do the time. Deal with the consequences and punishment like anyone else would have to. Maybe the out of control POS rapist pig should have thought about this before he raped an innocent woman who called police for help. Instead of the assistance she was seeking she was raped by a vile blue line gang member who will do no jail/prison time for his heinous crimes.
NO JAIL for Cop Guilty of Responding to Domestic Violence Call by Raping the Victim
El Paso, TX — Police, we are told, are the ones we call when we are in trouble and need help. However, often times, “help” is the last thing people receive. Instead of serving the public, many police officers use their badge to prey on them instead. As the following case out of El Paso illustrates, they do so with seeming impunity and almost never go to jail for it.
Imagine for a moment that you are a victim of domestic violence. After being attacked, you call police for help and protection. However, when the police show up, instead of getting that help or protection, you get raped. Well, that is exactly what happened to one woman in Texas and the cop who raped her was found guilty of it.
Instead of going to jail, however, this cop who admitted to raping a victim of domestic violence, gets off essentially Scot free and will only have to serve 10 years of probation. This is a travesty of justice indeed—especially considering the fact that good people are serving life sentences in a cage for possession of marijuana.
On Friday, former El Paso police officer William Ollie Alexander received a 10-year suspended prison sentence on one count of sexual assault. He will spend exactly zero days in jail for the brutal sexual assault of a domestic violence victim he was tasked with protecting. He will also have to register as a sex offender for life.
According to authorities, on March 10, 2018, Alexander responded to a domestic violence call. Before leaving the woman, he gave her his phone number and told her to meet him several hours later. According to police, when she met him, he then kidnapped her, took her to a dark area near Mesa Street in West El Paso and raped her. These facts are undisputed, yet this monster will not be going to jail.
“I used to be trusting,” the woman said when asked by prosecutors how the incident has impacted her. “I thought everyone was nice and would be helpful, but now I know it is not like that. My intimacy went away for a long time. I didn’t want any guy around me. That’s not right. I shouldn’t have to feel that way.”
According to the report in the El Paso Times, as the woman cried as she testified about the impact the incident has had on her life, while Alexander began crying when his children came into the courtroom.
“Can you imagine having a daughter and having this happen to her?” she asked. “It would be awful. I don’t have kids, but Mom was overprotective, and I am going to be even more overprotective. This is something I will never forget. It was the worst day of my life.”
Despite her heart-wrenching testimony, the jury apparently blinded by the badge, sided with the rapist cop’s father who pleaded for no jail, out of fear for his son’s safety.
William Ollie Alexander III said he knows his son made a mistake, but he asked for his son to be sentenced to probation due to fear for his son’s safety in jail.
“I understand he made a moral mistake,” he said. “My son is a law enforcement officer. I think you, I and all the men and women of the jury know what happens to law enforcement officers in prison.”
His attorneys. Dolph Quijano and Omar Carmona backed up his father’s plea, claiming that if this rapist cop was sentenced to jail, he would be killed.
“Any sentence you give Mr. Alexander could result in a death sentence,” Carmona said. “It doesn’t matter how many years. He will go to the penitentiary as former police officer. He is going to be there with gang members. Yes, it is because of his actions, but remember any prison sentence is a death sentence.”
By that insane logic, no cops should ever be sent to jail for the crimes they commit because it’s dangerous for them.
Perhaps this cop should’ve thought about these repercussions before he raped a domestic violence victim he was supposed to be helping. Or, perhaps he did, and he knew that he could rape her and no go to jail. Either way, the result is the same and this cop who raped an innocent woman who needed his help will be going home to his family as others rot in prison for victimless crimes and possessing substances deemed illegal by the state.
EL PASO: Lenient Sentence for Former Cop who Raped Woman After Domestic Dispute Call
On January 31, former El Paso police officer William Ollie Alexander was convicted of raping a woman after responding to her domestic dispute call in 2018. Originally facing 20 years in prison, a jury sentenced Alexander to 10 years probation and required him to register as a sex offender for life, a light sentence reflective of the bourgeois justice system’s dismissal of the police’s anti-people crimes.
The identity of the woman remained undisclosed throughout the trial. Alexander made initial contact with the woman in March 2018, when he responded to a domestic dispute call between the woman and her former partner. Upon arriving at the scene the woman was unclothed and remained so during her interview with Alexander.
Later that night, Alexander contacted the woman using a fake phone number, and provided a false name. At around 2 am, Alexander lied that his child was in the hospital in order to end his shift early and secretly pay the woman a visit. Once with her, he drove her into a poorly lit area near Mesa Street behind a semi truck and proceeded to rape her in his car.
When the charges were initially brought against Alexander, he resigned from the force and faced at least 20 years in prison. Alexander’s father pleaded in court for a lighter sentence testifying that his son, simply “made a mistake.”
Alexander’s defense is aware that behind bars, Alexander has little power and will be confronted with the anger of the incarcerated masses. This is why they attempt to depict all prisoners “as gang members,” purposely obscuring that many working class people are unjustly imprisoned and have hatred towards the police in general for their role in repressing the working class. Their awareness of Alexander being a rapist would only stoke their anger against him more.
The jury accepted the defense’s argument that Alexander would in fact become the victim in prison, doling out the weak sentencing with little regard for Alexander’s rape victim. The bourgeois-controlled jury selection prior to trials ensures that any person who expresses open hostility towards the police will be excluded from participation.
The bourgeois court, incapable of delivering justice to the masses, favorably sentenced Alexander because of his past in law enforcement, just as they did last year in San Diego with a former sheriff’s deputy convicted of assaulting at least 16 women, sentencing him to less than four years as opposed to the requested 25 years to life.

This is a video of my client Michael Walker being stopped by the Putnam County Sheriff’s Department in 2017 for open carrying a firearm. He had an AR-15 slung over his back, and was headed coyote hunting. We filed a federal civil rights lawsuit, which is still pending.
Ironically, Putnam County declares itself a 2nd Amendment Sanctuary. Yet their actions speak otherwise. They are actively resisting the lawsuit, and seeking a court order justifying the conduct depicted in the video. This would allow law enforcement to stop and run a background check on anyone they observe exercising their right to open carry a firearm in WV, even though existing law says they cannot. So much for being a sanctuary.....Comment -
Asst. Chief of Police Posts About Blowing Up Nancy Pelosi and ‘Dumbocrats’ and is NOT Arrested
Last year, after the shootings in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio, authorities essentially launched a crackdown nationwide on anyone and everyone who made a threat. Children and adults alike were detained, arrested, and charged for making online threats of violence. Dozens of people were arrested in just a few weeks. Fast forward to 2020, and now the assistant chief of police in Geraldine, Alabama is making terrorist threats online. But since he’s a cop, he gets a pass.
At least 30 people shared screen caps with the Free Thought Project of the assistant chief of the Geraldine police department, Jeff Buckles’ Facebook posts. After the state of the union address Tuesday night, Buckles couldn’t contain his anger toward Nancy Pelosi for tearing up Donald Trump’s speech—which was her personal copy as Trump read from teleprompters.
“Pelosi just ripped up his speach (sic),” Buckles wrote in the public post, which since appears to have been deleted or removed from public view but not before it was screen grabbed dozens of times. “Road Side bomb on her way home and any other Dumbocrats.”
This man is the second highest ranking cop in his town and his is literally calling for the assassination of American politicians. We are definitely not fans of Nancy Pelosi, but never would you hear TFTP call for her assassination. Not only is it in poor taste, but it would land us in a jail cell.
After his post went viral — for obvious reasons — and people were referring to him as a terrorist, Buckles issued an apology, claiming he was just “venting.”
“I want to apologize for venting on FB,’ wrote Buckles. “I have definitely offended some people with my remarks. It just rips my heart out that our great country is so divided.”
Unlike the one where he was making terrorist threats towards the speaker of the house, that post has not been deleted.
If you or I or anyone else but a police officer would have called for blowing up politicians on their way home from D.C., rest assured we would have had secret service agents knocking on our door within hours. However, because this terroristic threat was made by the chief of police, he is enjoying time off.
AL.com reported that Buckles did not go to work on Thursday or Friday, but according to the police chief, this was due to previously scheduled time off, not a suspension.
They let the officer remain on vacation and have not acted on his comments.
After his post went viral, Buckles’ entire Facebook page went viral as well and has garnished comments from all sides.
“If Jeff Buckles is impulsive enough to make life endangering threats towards democrats or as he would say “dumbocrats” on a Facebook status then what other impulsive life threatening decisions will he make with the authority and weapons he possesses in real life?” asked one Facebook user.
“Way too late,” one person wrote after he ‘apologized.’ “You are supposed to protect & serve. Not to threaten & spread fear.”
Also, his “apology” rings hollow about his “heart” being ripped that the country is so “divided” when he is resorting to name calling and partisan schoolyard antics to promote his apparently romantic obsession with Donald Trump and hatred for those who have a different political view.
Yes, it is probably unlikely that Buckles wanted to actually blow up Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats. We do not advocate the ‘cancel culture’ when people make stupid mistakes and think that everyone deserves a second chance. But, the bottom line is that he said it and our readers likely know that other people have been arrested for far less serious “threats” — including children.
But, if you are the assistant chief of police, threatening to blow people up on Facebook while declaring that Trump was sent from God to fulfill a prophecy (yes, he really said that), then you get a pass.

School Cop Arrested for Sexually Assaulting at Least 7 Children He Was Supposed to Protect
River Falls, WI — While most parents of school children in the United States will take comfort in knowing a police officer is at their child’s school, all too often, school cops are caught committing the vilest of offenses. Videos surface almost monthly of cops beating and abusing students for no reason, which is bad enough. But when they aren’t beating students, school cops are often times caught sexually abusing them. Case in point: a school resource officer in Wisconsin was arrested this week on multiple charges for sexually assaulting at least 7 students.
Cottage Grove police officer Adam Pelton, 40, was charged Monday with three counts of second-degree criminal sexual conduct and four counts of fourth-degree sexual conduct, all felonies. Perkins is accused of groping seven female children and attempting to solicit nude photos from one of them on multiple occasions.
According to authorities, the assaults took place from Sept. 1, 2018, until Oct. 4, 2019. No more occurred after October because Pelton was put on paid leave in the wake of the investigation into his string of sexual assaults.
According to the criminal complaint, as reported by the Star Tribune:
"Reports by several students of “inappropriate sexual contact” initiated by Pelton prompted authorities to ask the Apple Valley Police Department to investigate. Students alleged that Pelton repeatedly initiated hugs from them during which he would touch their buttocks over their clothing.
Most of these interactions occurred in Pelton’s private school office, which lacked video surveillance. However, video was located that showed Pelton initiating hugs with female students in the halls.
Several students also reported that Pelton would often call or refer to them as “beautiful” and “sweetheart.” One of them disclosed that he told her that if he were her age, he would date her. She also said Pelton sent her Snapchat messages over summer break. In one of the messages, he made lunch plans with her."
Pelton’s victims ranged in age from 13-17. Because he was in a position of authority, the girls were scared to report Pelton, with some of them thinking they couldn’t report him.
“We aren’t going to say anything, I mean, he’s a police officer,” read the complaint.
To be clear, this touching wasn’t sporadic. It was frequent and sexual in nature. These girls reported Pelton’s sexual assaults would happen “four to five days a week” over several months.
Another student reported that Pelton repeatedly asked her to send nude photos of herself, but she never sent them. Pelton reportedly admitted to requesting the nude photos from one of the children at school but claimed the repeated requests were “a joke.”
Pelton has been in law enforcement since 2009. However, he was only at Park High School from 2018 to 2019, during which sex assaults were reported the entire time. Before this post, Pelton was at Cottage Grove Middle School starting in January 2017—meaning there could be victims there as well.
It seems that schools in America are starting to more closely resemble prisons than learning facilities. Think about it — children are locked in behind steel doors all day long as armed agents of the state patrol the grounds. A few minutes out of the day, the students are given a little yard time — and again, they are kept under the watch of armed state agents.
Video after video shows the horrific nature of such a practice as children are seen being maced, beaten, and tasered for normal childhood behaviors. And as Pelton’s case illustrates, they are being sexually assaulted too.

Fort Worth Officer Fired After Committing Perjury
A Fort Worth police officer accused of using excessive force on a hospital trespassing suspect and then lying about the encounter to grand jurors was fired Wednesday after he was convicted of aggravated perjury.
Officer Jon Preston Romer Jr. was terminated following the jury’s guilty verdict in Tarrant County’s 297th District Court, said Lt. Brandon O’Neil, a police spokesman.
Romer is to be tried separately on official oppression and making a false report charges in connection with the November 2016 incident, but the trial that began last week focused only on aggravated perjury. Romer was accused of lying to grand jurors about whether he told Henry Newson that he was under arrest for resisting before he punched him.Comment -

This is what you call a fishing expedition and failed intimidation. These blue line gang members go from harassing a man for filming, to his window tint, to his license plate and then threaten to kidnap him along with his child. All of this because the man refused to give up his 4th amendment rights and would not provide his ID when he was not legally obligated to do so. The man broke no laws or committed any crimes. Even as these POS pigs misquoted the law, copsplained their lies and made threats, the man stood firm and denied their unlawful demands. More tyrants wearing costumes and badges earning the hate.

This tyrant is out of control. Olmos Park Texas chief Rene Valenciano operates well outside of the law that he took an oath to uphold. This costumed and badged thug does not hesitate to maliciously violate law abiding citizens' rights. Texas is an open carry state and the men in the video committed no crimes or broke any laws, yet they wind up violently assaulted and arrested. It's blue line gang members like this that earn the hate for the few good cops that may be out there.
Olmos Park police chief: ‘People need to pay the consequences and go to jail'
Olmos Park police chief's reasons for opting out of cite and release program
"I believe that if it's a criminal act, people need to pay the consequences and go to jail, and there's a process for that already in the criminal justice system. So I don't see how circumventing the process by issuing them a citation is going to solve the problem," Valenciano said.
‘Oathbreakers’: After arrests, gun rights activists call out Olmos Park PD
Following an outcry about the arrest of a prominent gun rights activist, the Olmos Park City Council unanimously repealed a city ordinance Thursday morning that prohibited anyone other than an authorized police officer from carrying a loaded rifle or shotgun on public streets.
The ordinance was a clear violation of state law, which allows individuals to openly carry a long gun without a license. State law also prohibits local municipalities from pre-empting state law by regulating the transfer, ownership or carrying of firearms.
The local ordinance came to light earlier this week after CJ Grisham, president of Open Carry Texas, was arrested and tased during a small gun rights demonstration in Olmos Park. Two other activists were arrested at the same time.
Police charged 44-year-old Grisham, a retired Army sergeant who helped found Open Carry Texas, with assault of a police officer, interfering with the duties of a public servant and obstructing a roadway, according to court records.
James Everard, 35, faces one charge of interfering with the duties of a public servant. Joanna Castro, 44, has been charged with obstruction of a roadway.
Police suggested additional charges for all three, but those charges were rejected — either by the Bexar County district attorney’s office or a magistrate judge.
