Angel, If you actually read my post, you will see that I never said there were not crooked cops. As fara as the example, its a good one! In fact, its one of my favorites.The pissed off girlfriend game! I guess that is the cops fault? A girl gets pissed at her boyfriend/husband and claims he assaulted her. When in reality, he didnt. Well how is this the cops fault. This is a case of her lying, and him puttin ghimself in a bad situation.
If I have a person claiming they were assaulted, and have marks on them consistent with their statement, I would be a fool to not make the arrest if I cannot disprove her allegation of assault. If I did not write the report, you would say I am crooked because I let a guy go after he beat up his girl.
If I cna prove that she is lying, I lock her up. It is hard to prove, but I have done it. There have been a few times when she was stupid enough to get caught. And when that happens, I arrest her for filing a false police report. But, as I said, if it cannot be proven, I HAVE TO MAKE AN ARREST BY STATE LAW. I have no choice.
It is unfortunate that the guy gets arrested, but I have to cover my ass. Shame on him for beiong involved with such a lying, manipulating, self serving bitch. Usually, based on my experience, adults have a large part to do with their outcome. The chances are that the guy knew that she was a low down bitch, he just did not think she would be that way with him. The funny thing is that relationships where this stuff happens, do not end. They stay together. So that maked my jon easy the next time I come back. I know she is a liar, and he is an idiot. I know who and what I am dealin gwith. And trust me, in that situation, I will be back. They are too stupid to avoid it.
Do you know what is legally required to initiate an investigation, or affect an arerst? I dont really think you, or most people do. Because if you did, I really dont think you would have made the statements that you have.
Cheri, as fara as the provided links are concerned, they are just another example of peopl etelling you what they want you to hear. Get FACTS from credible sources. You can do better than that. I'll give ya a clue. Who is it that conducts real investigations on corruption, civl rights violations and such. When an investigation is serious, who conducts it? Then, when you get that info, compare it to REPORTED cases of abuse, corruption, civil rights violations. WHen you have done that, please share the results.
Thats is alot of work isnt it? In fact its too much work for the average American to undertake because they are too busy running their lives. So instead of doing your own research, you take the word of biased people, biased media, biased political groups. Just for grins, look into the links you posted. find out who did the research and compiled the data for the stories, then find out who owns the company, then find out who is financing the companies. If you are going to use a source, find ou tthe sources of the source. It may suprise you.
