1. 10 to 1 that swole son-of-a-bitch is roid-raging.

If you got to take injections to feel like a real man, asshole, you're not a real man.

5. i rly wish they would test these mf'rs.

random tests would be nice, but you catch a use of force complaint, you should pee in the bottle.

[Dorian Gray]

9. That guy has anger issues. He should be fired from the force

and made to take anger management classes. Holy shit.

[Mariana]

14. After he's finished his sentences for assault and terroristic threats.

You think he needs "anger management classes"? Anyone else who did this would rightly land in jail with a stack of criminal charges.

[Dorian Gray]

23. I think he is a bully

and yes, he obviously can't control his anger.

He won't go to jail because they never do. But he may actually be fired. And yes, I would love to see him learn to control his anger before he actually kills someone. Which will happen if he doesn't check it.

12. Absolutely.

2. MAJOR props to that junior officer, man

I wonder if she was thinking about George Floyd in that moment -
Cuz I sure was

THANK YOU, M’AM

RESPECT

[Dorian Gray]

10. We need many more like her

on all the police forces.

3. He grabbed her by the throat!!

He should have been fired the next day. Who needs a months long investigation?

[Mariana]

15. He should have been arrested on the spot.

There were a bunch of other cops on the scene who stood by and watched while he committed those crimes.

4. Sgt. Puleeze needs to learn a new emotion or two.

After he dries out, of course.

6. He needs to learn a new trade. Fire his ass. Jr officer should sue him but

then she too would need a new job due to the harassment she would get from other cops.

[Kid Berwyn]

13. Agree totally.

The sarge acts like he’s above the law.



Wonder where he gets the white power mindset?

[Mariana]

16. New trade? How about "prisoner"?

His criminal ass should be locked up.

[MLAA]

18. Agree, no reason he can't learn a new trade in prison. 😬

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. SHE was praised by her police chief! As for the police seargeant?

He's been suspended since (I think) November!

This is how you help good officers learn. Praise them for keeping a cool head in a hot situation.

Kudos to the Junior Officer!

[Mariana]

17. Suspended but not arrested and charged for his crimes.

No surprise.

8. Threatened to kill someone in handcuffs

and in the back of a patrol car. Fuck him. Fuck all the other dipshit cops who did nothing. Fuck cops. Fucking assholes.
That sergeant was telling the person in custody to respect officers. He was reinforcing the us against them attitude that so many cops walk around with. Maybe if all of you weren't such assholes who think every situation is the one in which you will die(which you won't) then people might be more respectful of you.

Stop training police to be paranoid of the public. Let me repeat that, STOP TRAINING POLICE TO BE PARANOID OF THE PUBLIC.

11. This happened a while ago. Maybe 6 weeks/2 months

I don't think we ever learned whether the Sgt was disciplined or how.

[IcyPeas]

19. I can't help but wonder how her fellow officers are going to treat her now

[bluestarone]

20. This is what i was thinking

She needs to be very careful! They could get to her.

[sakabatou]

21. I want to see the sarge behind bars for assault.

[WarGamer]

22. jacked up on steroids or simply power...
