The "very few bad apples" were so few that the vice unit was disbanded.

Columbus, Ohio, police unit that focused on 'moral crimes' disbanded amid scandals

After a series of scandals and investigations, Ohio's capital city is disbanding its police department's unit that was supposed to focus on "moral crimes."

Columbus' vice unit has been subject to internal and FBI investigations, and came under scrutiny last year when vice officers arrested adult film actress Stormy Daniels at a strip club. More recently, charges were brought against Columbus vice squad officer Andrew Mitchell, 55, alleging he forced two women to have sex with them under threat of an arrest.

Interim Columbus Police Chief Thomas Quinlan announced the closing of the vice unit Tuesday on Twitter, saying the remaining officers will be assigned to other departments. Three of the vice unit's 10 officers are currently under suspension.

holy F!!!

Just "violation of civil rights"? This is straight RICO Act shit:

Quote
A city police officer accused of stealing money during illegal traffic stops and shakedowns and then falsifying reports has been indicted on charges he conspired to violate individuals' civil rights.

Federal prosecutors announced the indictment against 28-year-old Eudy Ramos on Wednesday. They claim he conspired with four other officers — two already arrested and two who remain unnamed — to commit the crimes.

Prosecutors say the conspirators stopped drivers and pedestrians and robbed them of cash, then split the proceeds in a scheme that included coded text messages and falsifying reports. The conspiracy allegedly occurred from at least 2016 through April 2018.

As it has been mentioned several times in this topic, we're dealing with criminal gangs here.

Gotta laugh at the "tough" statement by the FBI. Why were the other goons who stood by and watched and did nothing to stop the attack not charged? They are accessories to the crimes.
Moreover, it appears that crime and corruption is widespread in that shithole department.

Elkhart police officers indicted on federal charges in beating of handcuffed man



A federal grand jury has indicted two Elkhart police officers on civil rights charges for repeatedly punching a handcuffed man last year, U.S. prosecutors announced Friday.

Elkhart County prosecutors had originally charged the two officers, Cory Newland and Joshua Titus, with misdemeanor battery in November, only after the South Bend Tribune and nonprofit news organization ProPublica learned of the incident and requested video.

The video showed Mario Guerrero Ledesma, seated and wearing handcuffs, in a detention area at the city police station, while Newland, Titus and other officers stood nearby. At one point Guerrero Ledesma spat toward Newland. Titus and Newland immediately punched Guerrero Ledesma in the face, causing him to fall backward onto the floor, then jumped on top of him and punched him repeatedly. Guerrero Ledesma had initially been arrested on suspicion of domestic battery.

“Today’s indictments send a clear message that the FBI won’t tolerate the abuse of power or victimization of citizens by anyone in law enforcement,” Grant Mendenhall, special agent in charge of the FBI’s Indianapolis division, said in a statement.

The Tribune and ProPublica first requested video of the beating as part of an investigation into disciplinary matters in the Elkhart Police Department. The news organizations also revealed 28 of the department’s 34 highest-ranking officers had disciplinary records, 15 had been suspended and seven had opened fire in at least one fatal shooting. Later, The Tribune and ProPublica found another disciplinary case in which Windbigler, the chief at the time, had provided inaccurate or incomplete information to the civilian oversight commission.

FEMA did not safeguard disaster survivors’ sensitive personally identifiable information

During our ongoing audit of the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Transitional Sheltering Assistance (TSA) program, we determined that FEMA violated the Privacy Act of 1974 and Department of Homeland Security policy by releasing to [REDACTED] the PII and SPII of 2.3 million survivors of hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria and the California wildfires in 2017. FEMA should only provide with limited information needed to verify disaster survivors’ eligibility for the TSA program. The privacy incident occurred because FEMA did not take steps to ensure it provided only required data elements to Without corrective action, the disaster survivors involved in the privacy incident are at increased risk of identity theft and fraud.

This criminal gang was particularly violent against this teenager. As expected authorities refused to release the video until recently. But what is the outcome of this? Just one indictment for "deprivation of rights under color of law". Why couldn't they first check the condition of the victim and assess if the he needed medical help after the crash and then arrest if it is warranted? Why are these gang members so violent? Are they incapable of behaving like reasonable persons and follow the law?

Video Shows Teen's Beating During West Virginia Traffic Stop

A police dashcam video released Thursday shows a West Virginia police officer kicking and punching a handcuffed teenage boy on the ground and kneeling on his shoulder during a November traffic stop.

Berkeley County Prosecutor Catie Wilkes Delligatti released the eight-minute video to The Associated Press. Authorities originally denied media requests for the video, citing the investigation. The teen's face is redacted in the video, taken from a sheriff's cruiser.

The video shows two officers yanking the teen through the open driver's side window to the ground, where he lands face first and is immediately placed in handcuffs. Footage shows one of the officers then kicks and stomps him several times and puts his knee on the teen's shoulder blade, pressing down with his full weight. The officer then punches the teen at least eight times.

A minute later, the teen is pulled up to his feet but remains limp as he is thrown further to the side of the road.

Gov. Jim Justice has said the incident "cast a dark shadow" on law enforcement.

Listen to this angry effeminate dirtbag making threats:

 



Remember this angry effeminate dirtbag making threats?

Turns out that he didn't "wait for all the facts to come out", as cops often say.

Once again, another crime was committed based on lies and fabrications that the "law enforcement professionals" didn't bother to check. It only crossed their mind to do so after 2 people were murdered in their home. Just claiming "it was a mistake" will not bring these people back and their killing could have been avoided but apparently the lives of non cops are of little importance to these scumbags. Will this killer and his gang be held accountable for the killing of these 2 people?

'You lie, you die' | HPD undercover cop lied about drug buy that led to deadly raid, Chief Acevedo says

In a bombshell development, the undercover cop who led a drug raid that ended with a deadly shootout last month is now the target of a criminal investigation.

The narcotics officer lied in the search warrant affidavit about a drug buy that never happened, Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo confirmed Friday.

"That’s totally unacceptable. I’ve told my police department that if you lie, you die," Acevedo said. "When you lie on an affidavit, that's not sloppy police work, that's a crime."

The case agent obtained a search warrant to conduct the no-knock raid on Jan. 28 after he swore a confidential informant bought heroin at the home the night before. He said the informant told him he saw a 9mm handgun and a large amount of heroin in the house.

Turns out, there never was a drug buy at the house or an informant who saw a large amount of heroin and weapons.

Remember this recent case? Once again we see the same thing, these scumbags are quietly allowed to resign or retire.

Once again, an armed violent gang invades a family's home to terrorize and intimidate them. They even destroyed the kid's birthday cake. Of course the violent gang just shrugs it off and says it was an "error".  The family members are lucky to be alive. When is there going to be a crack down on those armed violent gangs?

Police Raid Wrong Home During Birthday Party, Point Guns At Children; ‘I Thought They Was Going To Shoot Me, And My Brother, And Everybody Else’

Seven-year-old Samari Boswell said she was terrified the night of her younger brother TJ Boswell’s birthday party last month. She was expecting a party with cake and singing, but instead she and her family suddenly found themselves surrounded by police with guns pointed at them.

CBS 2 Investigators have been looking at Chicago Police wrong raids since August of 2018. To date, we have shown four cases, involving 11 children, where police held innocent families for long periods of time without showing them the warrants.

In each case, the families say the warrants were not turned over until police were leaving.

In my region, I'm around a wide variety of conservative Trump voters.
What surprised me, is how "anti-police" some  are.
I wrongly assumed that respect and deference for law enforcement was something we could agree on.

Nope.

In fact, a few told me they hate cops.
Over time ( in gym), I leared they were pissed at being pulled over and charged with drunk driving.
A few others were pissed off they got ticketed for excessive speeding ( 90+ mph) or driving on a suspended license, etc.

While I'm sure plenty of liberals hate cops for similar reasons, Trumpers hating them really surpised me.
AGAIN, I respect the poilce and tend to take their side. I wrongly assumed all Trumpers would as well. WRONG.


I don’t Hate all Cops just as I don’t hate all Blacks  
( I do hate all Muslims  ;D )

All Scumbag Cops that behave like they are part of a big gang and those that try to cover
For them - That’s an entirely different matter
Same goes for all the Scumbag Gang Member Blacks.

Difference is the Scumbag Cops are Generally Protected by Other Cops
The Blacks aren’t - So Even you’d have To Admit That Situation is even worse as the cops
Are Meant to uphold the Law & Serve & Protec -

This Thread Really Does Highlight the vast
Amount of Bad Cops Out There - They deserve to be Hated Banged up & Fucked up badly.

Tell Me Otherwise.

Once again, we're dealing with criminal gangs. Press release from an anti-cop website:

Fourteen Springfield Police Officers Charged in Connection With Assault Near Bar and Cover up Afterwards

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 3/27/2019                                              

Office of Attorney General Maura Healey

Thirteen Springfield Police Department officers and one former officer have been indicted on various charges in connection with an assault on four victims and an attempt to cover up the details of the assault afterwards, Attorney General Maura Healey and FBI Boston Division Special Agent in Charge Joseph R. Bonavolonta announced today.

A specially-designated Statewide Grand Jury sitting in Worcester returned indictments against the following individuals today, in connection with the assault on the four alleged victims:

The above defendants are charged with Assault and Battery with a Dangerous Weapon, Shod Foot (4 counts each), Assault and Battery - Serious Bodily Injury (1 count each), Assault and Battery (3 counts each), and Conspiracy (1 count each).

The Statewide Grand Jury also returned indictments against the following individuals today, in connection with attempting to cover up details of the assault afterwards:

These criminal charges are the result of a joint ongoing investigation by the Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office and the Federal Bureau of Investigation Boston Division. The AG’s Office alleges that on April 8, 2015, off-duty Springfield Police Department officers Billingsley, Anthony and Christian Cicero, Basovskiy, Williams, and Diaz and bar owner John Sullivan, physically assaulted four victims after a confrontation at Nathan Bills Bar & Restaurant in Springfield. The victims had already left the bar when the defendants allegedly located them down the street and assaulted them. The victims were allegedly beaten and kicked, and sustained significant injuries as a result of the assault, some permanent. The AG’s Office and the FBI collected statements from victims and witnesses, phone records, and video evidence that led to the identification of the defendants and these charges.

The AG’s Office also alleges that after the assault, nine Springfield Police officers as well as John Sullivan and Joseph Sullivan (no relation) were a part of a long-standing and ongoing cover up of the assault. John Sullivan allegedly misled the FBI during the course of the investigation, and Diaz gave misleading statements in an interview with the Internal Investigations Unit of the Springfield Police Department. Nguyen, Lewis, Bortolussi, Gentry-Mitchell, D’Amour, Wajdula, Perez, Rodriguez, and Joseph Sullivan all allegedly committed perjury by lying when testifying in front of the Statewide Grand Jury, and many of these defendants also misled authorities and/or filed false police reports during the investigation.

Once again "former" in the headline but he was a state trooper when he was committing the crime and embezzling funds. 90 days is a very light penalty for this criminal. Press release from the most notorious anti cop website:

Former Massachusetts State Trooper Sentenced to Three Months in Prison for Overtime Fraud

A former Massachusetts State Trooper was sentenced today in federal court in Boston in connection with the ongoing investigation of overtime abuse at the Massachusetts State Police (MSP).

Gregory Raftery, 47, of Westwood, was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge William G. Young to 90 days in prison, one year of supervised release, and ordered to pay restitution in the amount of $51,377. In July 2018, Raftery pleaded guilty to one count of embezzling funds from a state agency receiving federal funds.

Raftery admitted that in 2015 and 2016, he was not present and did not work for hundreds of hours of overtime shifts for which he had been paid by the Massachusetts State Police. Raftery admitted that he frequently left overtime shifts early, and, on multiple occasions, did not work overtime shifts at all. To hide his conduct, Raftery submitted bogus motor vehicle citations that were never issued to operators, and then claimed on the citations and internal MSP paperwork that they had been written during overtime shifts that, in reality, Raftery did not work.  

Raftery acknowledged that in 2015 he was paid over $24,000, and in 2016, he was paid almost $30,000 for overtime hours that he did not work.

Raftery is the second Trooper to be sentenced as a result of the ongoing investigation. Thus far, eight MSP troopers have been charged and pleaded guilty.

United States Attorney Andrew E. Lelling; Joseph R. Bonavolonta, Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Boston Field Division; and Douglas Shoemaker, Special Agent in Charge of the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Office of Inspector General, made the announcement today. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Dustin Chao and Mark Grady of Lelling’s Public Corruption Unit are prosecuting the case.

Once again, unrestrained violence and cops covering up and clearing themselves of wrongdoing.

Bronx woman who lost eye in horrific confrontation with cops sues NYPD; officer accused was cleared in internal probe


A Bronx woman who lost her eye in a horrific confrontation with cops is suing the NYPD -- despite cops’ claims the bloody beatdown was somehow justified.

Johanna Pagan-Alomar says in her recently filed suit that Officer Theresa Lustica had a key clenched in her fist when the officer pummeled her face and destroyed her eye.

At the 46th Precinct stationhouse, a captain asked why EMS hadn’t been called, and ordered the partners to get Pagan-Alomar to the hospital right away, Pagan-Alomar says.

Police dispute this account, saying EMS was called to the arrest scene and took her to St. Barnabas Hospital. But the FDNY, which oversees EMS, has no record of a response to the arrest scene that day.

Regardless, the outcome was the same – Pagan-Alomar’s left orbital wall was fractured and the eye ruptured. About three months later, doctors removed it. She is awaiting a prosthetic replacement.

The NYPD says there is no reason to discipline Lustica: “The Internal Affairs Bureau conducted an investigation and determined that the officer’s actions were appropriate under the circumstances -- and neither excessive nor unnecessary,” said Assistant Chief Patrick Conry, an NYPD spokesman.

The NYPD says that when IAB cops tried to interview Lustica at Bronx Lebanon Hospital the day after the incident, she refused to cooperate. They had her sign a “statement of complaint withdrawal” form to confirm this and went on to complete the investigation clearing the cops without her input.

Every police dept is composed of human beings and some do bad things.
I'm NOT about to defend corrupt police conduct
At least the internal affairs dept and the courts reign in and sentence bad cops.

Notice in my post, I used examples of those who had clearly broken some law.
They seem outraged about being stopped for drunk driving or ticketed for going 90 in a 55 mph zone.
How do we enforce these laws if the police never bother to enforce them?

Did you fully read & understand what I Wrote ?
Enforcing laws is one thing.
The Thousands of examples posted here on this thread of police Brutality/ Stupidity/ Corruption/
Disregard for Law & Lives Etc Is entirely another.
I’m certainly not ask or expecting cops not to enforce the laws.
I also don’t expect to see / hear about a never ending stream of Bad Cops getting away with
Awful behaviour & others covering for them.

Damn. The girl reported this several times but she was shut down. And this is the Chief of Police in that town...

Attorney General Josh Shapiro Announces Arrests of Two Carbon County Men, Including Weissport Police Chief, for Child Rape

HARRISBURG — Attorney General Shapiro today announced the arrests of two Carbon County men for child rape. Weissport Chief of Police Brent Getz, 27, and Gregory Wagner, 28, both of Lehighton, PA, were charged on Tuesday with Rape of Child, Involuntary Deviate Sexual Intercourse with a Child, Aggravated Indecent Assault of Child, and several related charges.

This investigation began in May 2012 when the victim, then 12-years-old, reported to a substitute teacher that Gregory Wagner, then 22-years-old, was sexually assaulting her. The teacher reported it to the Franklin Township Police Department and, after an investigation, no charges were filed at that time.

In 2015, the case was reassigned and police prepared a criminal complaint charging Wagner with various crimes. The complaint was dismissed by the Magisterial District Judge due to a paperwork error. The charges were never refiled.

In August 2018, a Franklin Township Police Officer revisited the case and asked the victim to come back in for an interview. At this time, the victim also disclosed that Brent Getz, who was Wagner’s friend, had sexually assaulted her too. Getz is now the Chief of Police in Weissport, Carbon County.

The victim revealed that, consistent with her prior disclosures and examinations, from age 4-11 she was orally, vaginally, and anally raped by Wagner. She reported that Getz would also join in these assaults. Additionally, she said that Wagner often made her watch pornography with him, which she recalled depicted teenagers.

“The defendants terrorized this young victim by assaulting her hundreds of times over seven years,” said Attorney General Josh Shapiro. “My Office will listen to survivors and prosecute anyone who sexually abuses children to the fullest extent of the law we are able—no matter how much time has passed. I’m grateful for the work of my agents to bring these predators to justice and prevent them from harming anyone else.”

Agents executed a search warrant of Wagner’s residence on March 26, 2019. They located numerous electronic devices, including his cell phone, which contained Google searches of terms which are indicative of child pornography.

Wagner was interviewed and admitted to sexually abusing the victim over the course of several years. He also admitted that Getz sexually abused the victim and that they would do so together.

The case of Brent Getz was referred to the Office of Attorney General by Carbon County District Attorney Jean Engler because Getz was a police officer employed or formerly employed at several police departments in Carbon County. The case of Gregory Wagner was also referred to the Office of Attorney General. The case is being prosecuted by Deputy Attorney General Rebecca Elo.

The victim revealed that, consistent with her prior disclosures and examinations, from age 4-11 she was orally, vaginally, and anally raped by Wagner. She reported that Getz would also join in these assaults. Additionally, she said that Wagner often made her watch pornography with him, which she recalled depicted teenagers.

“The defendants terrorized this young victim by assaulting her hundreds of times over seven years,” said Attorney General Josh Shapiro. “My Office will listen to survivors and prosecute anyone who sexually abuses children to the fullest extent of the law we are able—no matter how much time has passed. I’m grateful for the work of my agents to bring these predators to justice and prevent them from harming anyone else.”

Agents executed a search warrant of Wagner’s residence on March 26, 2019. They located numerous electronic devices, including his cell phone, which contained Google searches of terms which are indicative of child pornography.

Wagner was interviewed and admitted to sexually abusing the victim over the course of several years. He also admitted that Getz sexually abused the victim and that they would do so together.

The case of Brent Getz was referred to the Office of Attorney General by Carbon County District Attorney Jean Engler because Getz was a police officer employed or formerly employed at several police departments in Carbon County. The case of Gregory Wagner was also referred to the Office of Attorney General. The case is being prosecuted by Deputy Attorney General Rebecca Elo.

Fucking outrageous
How many others involved or doing the same there.
Plenty of opportunities to stop the abuse & help the Girl
Yet not taken - I say that’s suspicious.
If it’s proven beyond a doubt them two want impaling on spikes
And left to Rot for all to see.

She couldn't distinguish between her tazer and her firearm so she shot the man and could also have hurt the other cop who was fighting him. These are the "highly trained professionals" who are "qualified" to handle firearms, unlike the citizens whose gun rights are being slowly eroded. Lack of training, lack or experience and in this case probably being a small female doesn't help.

Video shows former Lawrence police officer shoot driver during May 29 traffic stop

Police dash cam video released Monday shows a driver wrestle a Lawrence police officer to the ground and fight him before being shot in the back by another officer during a traffic stop last year.

Brindley Blood, the officer who shot the man, is charged in Douglas County District Court with reckless aggravated battery. Blood has maintained the May 29 shooting was accidental and she meant to reach for her stun gun instead of her firearm.

Cop Who Savagely Beat Footbal Fan on Video, Used Unnecessary Force 56 Times, Injured 17 People

Pittsburgh, PA – Caught on video savagely beating a teenage football fan and falsifying arrest reports, a fired police sergeant has recently been accused by the district attorney of using more force than necessary at least 56 times. Establishing a pattern of violence and falsifying reports, Allegheny County prosecutors introduced the new evidence on Monday in preparation for the ex-cop’s upcoming state trial.

On November 28, 2015, a surveillance video captured off-duty police Sgt. Stephen Matakovich ordering 19-year-old Gabriel Despres to leave Heinz Field. In his arrest report, Matakovich falsely claimed that Despres adopted an “aggressive posture” and appeared ready to attack him.

But according to the video, Despres calmly stood with his arms down at his sides when Matakovich suddenly shoved the teen to the ground and began punching him in the head. Although Despres did not provoke the attack and did not appear to fight back, the off-duty cop repeatedly struck him while several other security guards watched.

Treated for a bloody nose, Despres eventually pleaded guilty to trespassing and public drunkenness. After watching the video of the incident, Pittsburgh Police Chief Cameron McLay fired Matakovich and opened an investigation that led to his state trial.

Charged with simple assault and official oppression in state court for attacking Despres, Matakovich also faces federal counts of deprivation of civil rights and falsification of a record. Even though the state charges are only misdemeanors that carry no more than two years in prison, Matakovich could be sentenced up to 30 years for the federal charges.
In an attempt to establish the ex-cop’s history of violence, county prosecutors introduced a motion on Monday detailing Matakovich’s use of unnecessary force against 56 other people and another case in which he assaulted a security guard then arrested him on false charges.

On December 28, 2014, Matakovich had been assigned to work as a plainclothes officer at Heinz Field. After an altercation broke out, Matakovich responded to the scene and tried to break up the fight.

Due to the fact that Matakovich was not in uniform, security guard Dylan Burton failed to recognize the cop before tapping him on the shoulder and questioning him. When Matakovich ignored his questions, Burton grabbed his shoulder a moment before the plainclothes cop turned around and began repeatedly punching Burton in the face. Although the security guard had committed no crime, Matakovich arrested Burton and charged him with aggravated assault.

Instead of going to trial, Burton ended up pleading guilty to a summary count of harassment. By showcasing Matakovich’s actions against Burton, county prosecutors will also be able to present a pattern of violence stemming from at least 56 other incidents since 2011 in which Matakovich claimed that a person had resisted.

Out of those 56 reports, 20 cases involved strikes to the face and head, with 17 of those resulting in injuries including broken noses, broken jaws, and loss of consciousness.

“In both cases, the defendant charged aggravated assault on a police officer when neither Despres nor Burton had come anywhere close to committing such an offense,” the motion said. “Furthermore, in an attempt to support this felony charge and justify his excessive force, in each case the defendant concocted a version of events to fit his narrative. Finally, in an attempt to clear himself of potential accusations of wrongdoing and put the incidents to rest, the defendant offered Despres and Burton pleas to summary harassment.”

According to the prosecution and video footage, Matakovich brutalized innocent people and arrested them under false charges in order to cover up his own violent provocations. Instead of succumbing to the proliferation of Big Brother watching us, the public continually finds ways to use those electronic eyes against corrupt members of our government.

Remember this case? Once again, instead of having the criminals pay out of their pockets or raiding their gang's coffers, the taxpayers are footing the bill.

City Council To Approve Settlement For Man Attacked By Officer Outside Heinz Field

The city has agreed to pay $77,500 to the man who was beaten by former Pittsburgh Police officer Stephen Matakovich outside Heinz Field in 2015.

A federal judge sentenced Matakovich to 27 months in prison for violating Gabriel Despres’ right, and now his attorneys have won this civil settlement.
