The more you hear the more it seems that these jobs attract those types of people. I know at least one prison down here they found the guards were running the women's side as basically a brothel. Most of the "customers" were police officers. Fucking disgusting.

People with Stockholm Syndrome are going to gravitate to jobs where they can safely practice their art.

Compared to the horrific cases posted above, this one's almost amusing. Sounds like he'd have fitted in well on this site.



A police officer who claimed his “fake girlfriend” died of cancer to get days off work would have been sacked for the “odious” gross misconduct had he not resigned, a chief constable has said.

Harry Sarkar, 21, a constable with West Midlands Police, “maintained a detailed tissue of lies to colleagues and supervisors about a fake girlfriend, her fake illness, her fake death, and subsequent fake funeral”, the force said.

> Who cares another dead cop probably against gun control," the message read, in part. "Cops exist for the government to exercise its monopoly on violence. They want the whole world to stop when one of theirs goes down."

> How many idiots I had to transport with honor guard their dead bodies from coronavirus because they were all too stupid to wear masks or get vaccinated," the message read. "All cops are for is protecting the rich property owners and the status quo. Everything else is a farce. F--- the police."

the Truth scares some people

Drunk off-duty Long Island cop viciously rear-ends car, sending two toddlers to the hospital (one with a fractured skull.) So what do the responding officers (from the same precinct) do? Toe the thin blue line!!

After a detective told [Sergeant] McQuade that he wanted Mascarella [drunk cop] to undergo a preliminary breath test, McQuade notified a Suffolk County Police Benevolent Association delegate. The delegate, Officer Joseph Russo, then drove Mascarella away from investigators, McQuade reported.

• Ordered to catch up with Mascarella, Fourth Precinct Officer Kevin Wustenhoff falsely reported to a supervisor that he had given Mascarella the breath test and that Mascarella had passed it, according to a law enforcement source with knowledge of the case. Wustenhoff retracted the account, the source said.

• Three hours after the crash, Deputy Insp. Mark Fisher asked Mascarella to take the breath test. Mascarella refused. When a driver refuses a preliminary breath test, police typically seek a warrant to have the driver's blood drawn and tested for alcohol. Fisher only issued a traffic ticket to Mascarella.

• Police failed to notify the Suffolk County District Attorney's Office on the night of the crash that an officer had been involved in an unexplained, high-speed rear-end crash, had seriously injured a 2-year-old and had refused a breath test. The omission prevented the DA from considering whether to seek a warrant to test Mascarella's blood.

• Although five officers wrote reports stating they saw no evidence that Mascarella was intoxicated, prosecutors under then-DA Tim Sini subsequently investigated the crash with an eye toward charging Mascarella with vehicular assault. Lacking a blood test that would have revealed whether Mascarella was intoxicated, they closed the investigation without action.

Oh, but the best part? They made the dad of the injured kids take a breathalyzer test. He passed.

Not saying this is the most heinous example of cop callousness - seems like it demonstrates a fundamental flaw in this "educational" program that led to this situation (surely it was quite predictable a little girl would come to view the animal as a pet?). But it does seem like a spectacular waste of tax-payer resources. Has California law-enforcement really got nothing better to do than travel hundreds of miles across country to confiscate a goat?

I mean, the US law enforcement system seems to have trouble getting round to doing anything about someone who instigated an attempt to overthrow democracy, but they apparently have unlimited resources for arresting goats.


In July, “two sheriff’s deputies left their jurisdiction in Shasta county, drove over 500 miles at taxpayer expense, and crossed approximately six separate county lines, all to confiscate a young girl’s beloved pet goat”, the lawsuit states. “As a result, the young girl who raised Cedar lost him, and Cedar lost his life.”

According to the lawsuit, Long and her daughter purchased the baby goat while the child was enrolled in 4-H, a youth agriculture program popular in rural California. The intention of the program was that the goat would be raised by the family and eventually sold. But the girl, who is not even 10 years old, grew attached to Cedar. In June, when it was time to sell Cedar at a local fair livestock auction, she was “sobbing in his pen beside him”, the lawsuit states.

The Greensboro massacre was a deadly confrontation which occurred on November 3, 1979, in Greensboro, North Carolina, US, when members of the Ku Klux Klan and the American Nazi Party (ANP) shot and killed five participants of a "Death to the Klan" march organized by the Communist Workers Party (CWP). The killed included four members of the CWP, who had originally come to Greensboro to support workers' rights activism among mostly black textile industry workers in the area.[1] The Greensboro city police department had an informant within the KKK and ANP group who notified them that the Klan was prepared for armed violence.


all 5 got off on 'self defense'

Most Sheriff's departments are uh quite problematic to say the least. I used to work with cops from a large agency and even they all viscerally hated dealing with deputies in most counties. You haven't really lived until some small county sheriff has arrested your employees because you didn't hire his brother in law's contracting firm for a job.
