Looks like Mr. Taser Cop has a nifty little record
http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-taser21nov21,0,1459046.story?coll=la-home-headlines

Terrence Duren, a 2001 UCLA officer of the year, has been the subject of two other use-of-force complaints.

The UCLA police officer videotaped last week using a Taser gun on a student also shot a homeless man at a campus study hall room three years ago and was earlier recommended for dismissal in connection with an alleged assault on fraternity row, authorities said.

UCLA police confirmed late Monday that the officer who fired the Taser gun was Terrence Duren, who has served in the university's Police Department for 18 years.

Duren, who was named officer of the year in 2001, also has been involved in several controversial incidents on campus.

In an interview with The Times on Monday night, Duren, 43, defended his record as a campus police officer and urged people to withhold judgment until the review of his Taser use is completed.

3. Again - People who want to be cops are the last people that should
be allowed to be cops. This guy is a perfect example.
