Police State - Official Thread

[illuminati]

This is a toughie from personal experience. I've been involved in crime scenes where someone was shot or seriously injured and it becomes a crime scene. This means limited access to decrease contamination of the scene while homicide is responding.

He was in the hospital
How is that a crime scene & even if it was what with all the different doctors & nurses
Just how is his mother going to be the “straw that broke the camels back” as far as
Contamination & the crime scene...??

Kid my well of been a scumbag - his mother Just wanted to be with him.

Exactly. I don't know how and why the kid was shot, but to prevent his mother from seeing him in his final moments or just when he died is beyond inhuman and shows that these people have no empathy and don't care about the consequences of their actions. Most likely the cops knew the BS charges they slapped on the mother wouldn't stand but they must've also known that just this BS arrest would mean that in these crucial moments she would be away from her son.
Remember the other case where a nurse in a hospital objected to a cop's illegal demands to draw blood from a person they brought, because she actually knew the law, and the cop assaulted her and kidnapped her?

I understand you can't read it. The article says the hospital, not the cops, shut it down per normal procedures, it was in lockdown the same as they do for rape victims, there were 3 people being worked on at one time, an unusual instance. The charges were later dropped against the mother.

Ok, let me put you in this scenario. Car wreck. Fatalities from 3 different vehicles.. you have the traffic investigators coming out to investigate the crash to determine who is at fault, if charges can be filed, and you have family members that are wanting to go into the scene and it is your job to keep them out so the evidence isn't destroyed. What do you do?

You are called to a disturbance where a shooting victim is being treated. It might be gang related. The hospital has shut down that section because they are treating several patients in critical condition and can't be distracted by family members entering the area. What do you do?

I agree, the arrest should have been avoided if possible. But what if she clawed an officer keeping her back? Do we pretend it didnt happen?

I can only hope all their loved ones pass & they can’t be with for some
Pitiful excuse or another

And no amount of praying hands held or not would’ve “worked out”

Another young man killed by cops. 17 years old. 13 shots. No violent protests or looting for him of course. Naturally the cops were cleared because they "feared for their lives". Once again, some people learn through the worst possible way that calling 911 on someone might not always bring help in the form of trained and compassionate professionals, in some cases it can bring a death squad.



Parents of OP teen killed by police decry 'shameful' treatment by police, prosecutors

The parents of Overland Park teenager John Albers went on Facebook Monday to decry the "shameful" treatment they say was dealt them by police and prosecutors after their son was shot and killed by an officer.

Police shooting of Overland Park teen ruled justified, but video raises questions

The Overland Park police officer who fired into a moving van and killed suicidal teenager John Albers reasonably feared his life was in danger, Johnson County Prosecutor Steve Howe said in a press conference Tuesday.

But the prosecutor’s decision did not quiet public reaction as debate persisted questioning if the officer was in enough danger to warrant firing into the moving van.

Notice how the one cop calmly handcuffs the person who is on the ground and then comes the "heroic" cop who kicks the man in the head. Of course they "forgot" to mention the kick in their reports. If it wasn't for the person recording this, none of this would have been known. Will this cop be prosecuted for the attack?

Cop Fired After Video Shows Him Kick Handcuffed Man’s Head Like a Soccer Ball

Miami, FL – A police officer was relieved of duty on Thursday, hours after a disturbing video was posted on Facebook that showed him running up to a man who was handcuffed and restrained on the ground, and kicking his head like a soccer ball for no apparent reason.

The video was posted by Facebook user Lisa Harrell, and it showed a man lying on the grass in the yard outside of a house with his hands behind his back. A police officer was standing a few feet away, and he pulled out a pair of handcuffs from his belt and skipped over to the man who was already in full surrender position. The officer locked the man’s hands in the handcuffs, and the man did not appear to resist arrest in any way.

As the first officer finished putting on the handcuffs, a second officer came running up and he forcefully and intentionally kicked the man’s head as if it was a soccer ball, all while the man lay on the ground with his hands restrained, an officer sitting on his back, and no possible way to pose a threat to the officer who assaulted him, or to defend himself.

The officer who kicked the man then turned around, knelt down, and slammed the man’s head into the ground, assaulting him a second time as three other officers approached the scene, and the video ended.

“You didn’t have to do all that, buddy. You tripping,” Harrell remarked after she recorded the encounter. In her Facebook post, she noted that the suspect “was down already” and that the officer “didn’t have to kick him.”

“He was already in handcuffs, he was not resisting or anything,” Harrell told Local 10 News. “He was already in handcuffs and the other one came running out of nowhere and kicked him like a football and basically jumped on him.”

What’s more, none of the other police officers mentioned the kick in the police report. The report only noted that “while placing the defendant into the back of the police vehicle, the defendant started to tense up his body to avoid being placed in the vehicle.” What measures the officers took to get him inside the vehicle weren’t in the report either.

And another similar incident. What is it with cops kicking handcuffed people to the head? Is it the infamous "training" they receive? Why can they not follow the laws and not assault a person who has been handcuffed and is lying on the ground (with another cop on top)? Will the cop go to prison for this assault? Or will the bill be sent to the taxpayers once again?

Cop Holds Down Handcuffed Teen as Fellow Cop Kicks His Face In

Franklin Township, OH — Dramatic video has surfaced which will undoubtedly end up with taxpayers shelling out hundreds of thousands of dollars to an 18-year-old kid who ran from police. In spite of teen being handcuffed, face-down on the ground, with another officer on top of him, a Franklin Township police officer is seen punting his face like a football.

The suspect—turned victim, Anthony Foster Junior, allegedly made the terrible and dangerous decision to run from police earlier this week. According to police, Foster rammed a police car, drove 90 miles per hour through residential neighborhoods, and tried to make police officers crash.

He was accused of breaking several laws and deserved to be given due process. However, thanks to an officer who couldn’t control himself, the taxpayers will now be held accountable.

According to police, the pursuit began after police pulled over Foster for having no registration on his vehicle. Instead of stopping, however, Foster allegedly led police on a high speed chase. The incident report says Foster “drove through several yards, jumping a driveway and attempted to make it back on the street where the suspect’s vehicle struck and officers vehicle.”

Once the chase came to an end, that’s when police pulled him out of the vehicle without incident and had him in handcuffs.

As the video shows, Foster was on the ground, in handcuffs, when the unnamed police officer runs up to him and kicks him right in the face.

Naturally, Foster has already retained an attorney, Joe Landusky, who will likely sue and win.

“When I look at the video when I see a kid lying in the street motionless and another individual coming around wearing a police uniform nonchalantly kicking in the head like a football it’s not something that’s nice to watch. I don’t know what happened leading up to this, he’s charged with certain things I don’t know whether he was involved with those things are not and he’s presumed innocent,” he said, according to 10TV.

The officer responsible for the brutal act caught on film is now on paid administrative leave pending the outcome of an internal investigation.

This thug pulled a gun on someone who actually bought a $1.19 pack of Mentos because he somehow decided the man stole the mints.

For a $1.19 pack of mints (that was already paid for)

Because he somehow thought the man stole them.

What would happen if a citizen believed a "cop" was acting suspiciously and pulled a gun on him?

What if there was another armed citizen behind the "cop" (at that point anyone can claim he is a "cop" for any nefarious purpose) and shot him when he saw him pulling out the gun because he feared for his life?

Why is this cop not in prison?

Will the taxpayers have to foot the bill once again?


Video shows off-duty officer pulling gun on man mistakenly suspected of stealing Mentos

One minute, Jose Arreola was buying a pack of Mentos at an Orange County service station.

The next minute, he was at the business end of a gun drawn by an off-duty Buena Park police officer who thought Arreola had stolen the $1.19 roll of mints.

The 49-year-old printer from Bellflower says he was both scared and angry that the officer had pulled a gun March 16 on someone he wrongly suspected of stealing candy.

“It’s been a month and I still can’t shake it,” Arreola said. “It was traumatic, the whole incident. (And) I grew up in Santa Ana. I’ve been shot at before.”

Buena Park Sgt. Mike Lovchik declined to comment on the incident, saying an internal investigation is underway.

Pedophile christian priests? Nothing surprising about this.
A cop trying to expose pedophile christian priests and having his life and career destroyed by religious cops who wanted to protect catholic christian priests?  Nothing surprising about this as well.

This happened in Australia more than 40 years ago. Still, it shows the problem of gangs that operate under the guise of police officer, the powers they possess, how they can destroy someone's life or career and not being held accountable. These people can investigate themselves, cover up for someone they want and destroy those who are deemed hostile to them or their supporters. What is even more shameful is that this man's story was ignored for more than 40 years and had it not been mentioned on TV it might have been unknown forever. As it usually happens in these cases the cops just apologize for the mistake and throw a bunch of money (usually from the taxpayers' pockets) as if this settles the issue.

Ex-detective Denis Ryan wins compensation decades after being pushed out of Victoria Police

A former detective, who was financially and professionally ruined by his own superiors for trying to bring a paedophile priest to justice, will receive compensation almost 50 years after he was pushed out of Victoria Police.

Denis Ryan gave up his police pension when he chose to resign from the force after being ordered to drop his investigation into Monsignor John Day, a Catholic paedophile priest who preyed on children in the Mallee.

The decision had a profound impact on his life, costing him a marriage and the prospect of a comfortable retirement. Until now, he has lived in a rented unit on the proceeds of an aged pension.

But a month after his plight was revealed by the ABC, the Victorian Government has reached a confidential settlement with the 86-year-old.

"Their allegiance was towards a cathedral and not to the people of Victoria that they'd sworn an oath to protect. They did not protect them."

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-05-07/denis-ryan-victorian-detective-police-pension-booted-force/9645982

In 2017, the final report of Australia’s Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse opened them back up. It found a much broader “national tragedy.” “Tens of thousands of children have been sexually abused,” it said, in “almost every type of institution where children reside or attend for educational recreational, sporting, religious or cultural activities. … It is not a case of a few ‘rotten apples.’ Society’s major institutions have seriously failed.”

He also apologized for the actions of the police decades ago and said the government would take care of him financially for his remaining years with a “substantial payment.”

The Victorian police have since apologized to Ryan for ousting him, as well, and the Royal Commission found Ryan’s claims credible that he had been forced out of his job because of his investigation into Day.

“We do not doubt,” the commission said, “that Victoria Police transferred Detective Ryan … for investigating allegations that Monsignor Day had sexually abused children in Mildura.”

The commission heard evidence that “everyone in the chain of command” of the police “appears to have fallen into line” against Ryan’s investigation.

A True Decent Cop.

A story about a cop doing what he should be doing
And The Gang Don’t like it & turn on him.

Finally He has been vindicated & compensated
And apologies issued.
Though I doubt any of those involved or responsible that are still
Alive will be Brought To Justice for what they Did.

Oh dear will she get that money back.?

[Agnostic007]

Oh dear will she get that money back.?

Eventually, but it pisses me off she has to fight for her own money. I was a fan of the seizure laws when they first were written. The spirit behind it was to be a tool used against obvious and clear drug dealers. At first it was. Then it evolved into this nightmare where small texas towns and many large cities supplement their tax base with seized funds. In the best cases, it is narco money, but in too many cases it is people being railroaded regardless of the intent of the money. This is one of those cases that make me want the whole law discarded

[Skeletor]

Oh dear will she get that money back.?

It is CBP (US Customs and Border Protection) in this particular case so they might operate under a different legal framework (they also have the BS 100 mile rule etc) but still civil asset forfeiture is pure theft that is legalized only because it is done by the government. Your money can be confiscated even if you are not charged with anything and then you have to go to court to get your money back - which is a very significant expense in itself as well as a huge time loss - and that is if you are lucky to get your money back. In several cases jut having some cash on you (say you won $2000 at a casino or the lottery or sold something) is enough for cops to confiscate them, claiming all sorts of things like you might be Pablo Escobar, that the money comes from crime or that the road you are driving on is a drug corridor or -the classic excuse- that generally you/your car/ the whole situation is "suspicious". Or they can claim nothing at all. All this without the cops having to prove anything or even charge you with anything, let alone be convicted in court. Because rights and due process don't apply when it's inconvenient or unprofitable to the government.

Notice this part from the article, this is just a racket, the government steals your money and they claim they'll return them to you if you don't sue them:

The agency told her in April it would give back her money under one condition: that she give up her right to sue the federal government. It’s called a “hold-harmless agreement.”

Once again the taxpayers are robbed because one cop destroyed a man's life and reputation - and he had to suffer the loss of his mother and sister while he was unjustly in prison. Instead of taking every last penny the cop has and then locking him up for life, the taxpayers have to foot the bill. Meanwhile the cop is still employed.

Philadelphia Jury Awards $10 Million In Wrongful Arrest, Imprisonment Of Khanefah Boozer

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — A man accused of shooting at a Philadelphia police officer will receive $10 million after being wrongfully arrested and imprisoned for more than three years.

The Philadelphia native was outside with friends in January 2011 on Abbotsford Road in Germantown. Boozer says a friend took out a gun and fired a shot into the air. A nearby police officer named Ryan Waltman arrested Boozer as the shooter, claiming Boozer pointed a gun at him.

Boozer says he told detectives it was his friend who fired the shot in the air but he says Officer Waltman never investigated that claim.

Boozer went to jail for almost four years. He couldn’t post his half-a-million-dollars bail.

Boozer was released from prison in 2014 but sued Officer Waltman for his false testimony. Officer Waltman, who is still on the force, was represented by a city solicitor. Ultimately, a jury decided to pay Boozer $10 million for being wrongfully accused and imprisoned. Boozer lost his mother and sister while sitting behind bars.

Now those "brave heroes" are going after people who eat mushrooms... He must be one of those "drug recognition experts" who receive the title after years of study a few hours sitting on a chair and munching on donuts. The couple shouldn't have let that thug in, it could have cost them their lives. What is more troubling though is how the whole situation went from a couple posting on Facebook about foraging edible mushrooms to the cop finding them and entering their home.

Innocent Couple Raided by Cops for Facebook Post of LEGAL Morel Mushrooms

Darlington, MD — It is a travesty enough when the drug war lays waste to the rights and lives of entirely decent people who’ve harmed no one simply because they choose to ingest a substance deemed illegal by the state. However, because the drug war is such an immoral and barbaric practice, entirely innocent people are also swept up in the dragnet of tyranny and ignorance. Case in point: a couple in Maryland were raided by cops for posting photos of legal morel mushrooms they picked and ate.

On Friday, John Garrison and his girlfriend Hope went foraging the mountains for some morel mushrooms. Morels are known to those in the region as being the safest mushroom to hunt for as they are very easily identified due to their unique look. From mid April to mid May, lovers of nature and good food, like John and Hope will find them growing near trees or where there used to be trees.

Garrison was so excited that they had found a bunch of them, that he posted a photo on Facebook of he and Hope’s bounty along with his plans to “sautee them with brown sugar and cinnamon and see how that turns out.”

A great night of good food was set to follow an awesome day of hiking and foraging. That is, however, until the wheels of the police state drug war caught a whiff of the mushrooms.

Garrison made the post that they were about to saute the mushrooms at 9:09 pm. Only hours later as he and Hope sat back with full bellies, police showed up.

“We had just finished eating the Morels we found today and heard a knock on the door. A police officer and an RA were standing outside. We let them in and as soon as the police officer walked in he asked us why we were eating mushrooms and posting about it online. He thought he was on the biggest bust of his career thinking we were having a magic mushroom party before I explained to him that Morels are a native choice edible mushroom similar to truffles,” explained Garrison.

However, this cop—clearly unaware of the tasty morel and hell bent on busting kids for eating mushrooms—just knew he had caught himself a pair of hardened criminals who’d dare to expand their consciousness in the sanctity of their own home.



“He wasn’t convinced. So I rummaged through the trash to find a peice (sic) of a Morel so that he would have evidence that we weren’t taking psychedelic mushrooms. I showed him and he still wasn’t convinced that they weren’t magic mushrooms, Which was shocking to me because morels look nothing like a psychedelic psilocybin (sic) mushrooms and I figured a police officer would know what illegal drugs looked like. A second police officer showed up and I showed her the Morel and she immediately knew it was a Morel which was a relief. They processed our ID’s and eventually left. What an experience,” Garrison wrote on Facebook.
