California, again.

Records show how Orange County police and judge wrongfully jailed 14-year-old for nearly two years

Schriver told Assistant Public Defender Scott Sanders during the hearings that he lost the case file and could not remember the details of the informants’ statement, and also argued that it was more important to keep the informants’ identities a secret than to reveal evidence that could clear defendants like Vega. Sanders called such practices “deceptive and dishonorable.”

Buffalo, NY

And people ask what good cameras can do?

Buffalo cop under investigation after local station catches him attacking man with his nightstick

The attack stops after Krug is told by two colleagues that he was being recorded. The photographer was working on another story when he saw Krug approach the man, who was allegedly about to get into a fight. The man was not arrested and told to leave the scene.

“They’re telling this guy to walk away so apparently he did nothing,” American Civil Liberties Union attorney Daire Irwin told WKBW, adding, “I absolutely categorically believe his civil rights were violated.”

Texas...again

Apparently "failing to comply" is now grounds for execution in the US.

Bystanders plead with unarmed black man to ‘lay down’ after Houston police repeatedly shoot him

Note: pulled over for an "illegal lane change." I've never been stopped for an "illegal lane change" and I've been driving over 40 years.

Of course, I'm white.

Texas...yet again.

A Texas police officer was placed on administrative leave on Friday after he reportedly used a Taser on a 76-year-old man after the suspect had already been forced to the ground.

The Victoria Advocate reported that 76-year-old Pete Vasquez was driving a work-owned vehicle back to his place of business on Thursday when 23-year-old Officer Nathanial Robinson pulled him over for an expired inspection.

Which should bring up the question of WHY a motor vehicle infraction - even if there was one - should require any use of force?

But not in Texas I guess.

Racist cops? Who'd of guessed?

A San Jose police officer is under investigation after his supervisors were alerted by BuzzFeed that he had been threatening #Blacklivesmatter protesters on Twitter, once writing, “Threaten me or my family and I will use my God given and law appointed duty to kill you #CopsLivesMatter.”

Fucking cops just won't stop whining.

“He’s an athlete. He’s someone with no facts of the case whatsoever,” the newspaper quoted Follmer as saying. “He’s disrespecting the police on a job that we had to do and make a split-second decision.”

Yeah - cuz when you have to murder a 12 year old kid, time is of the essence!

Fuck off.

When cops have to put up with people like this, then no wonder they can be trigger sensitive.

And you see no difference between a guy swinging an axe and a guy who is pulled over for failing to signal a lane change?
