coverup - you cannot blindly trust the police - you must scrutinize what they say

[dherd]

there are a lot of innocent people in prison and a lot of crooks running free
to commit crime because police are sloppy, lazy and lets be honest in more
than a few cases dishonest. the entire criminal justice system needs to be
overhauled. do away with jailhouse informants, prosecutors trading leniency
for favorable testimony, evidence planting and the blind acceptance of a
policeman's word.

you all know it is true. you have all had personal experiences with an officer
who was untruthful.

from todays ny times:
The seven officers recommended for firing were accused of making false reports. They had backed up Officer Van Dyke’s account that Mr. McDonald had moved menacingly toward him with a knife. But their story was contradicted by the video of the shooting; while Mr. McDonald had a knife, he seemed to be veering away from the police when Officer Van Dyke shot him, and the gunfire continued after the teenager collapsed to the ground.

To the department’s critics, the significance of the video of Mr. McDonald’s shooting was not just in showing how wanton and unnecessary his killing had been, but in starkly demonstrating how blatantly and casually police officers had lied about the circumstances of another officer shooting a man. Such “code of silence” cover-ups of misconduct, critics said, had rarely been made so plain as in the discrepancy between the officers’ accounts of the killing and what the video later showed.

The same can be said for people who claim to be former Div 1 athletes and are currently accountants living luxuriously.

You can't blindly trust a DemocRAT either, but that doesn't stop you. So are you as equally appalled by the democrats on the Benghazi committee ignoring the truth to protect one of their own?

there are aprox 765,000 officers with "general arrest powers" in the US. 7 of those were found AND PUNISHED of wrongdoing. so you're little brain now labels all police as "sloppy" and "lazy"...

YOU and the media that spoon feeds YOU are what's wrong with this country. not the police...

 

[dherd]

WRONG. that is one who commited MURDER, and
seven police officers who witnessed the MURDER,
and testified that it was self defense, in this ONE
INSTANCE. THATS 8 OUT OF 8. NOT 7 OUT OF
765,000.

by the way - it took riots for the truth to come out, not
the p.d. policing itself, testifying truthfully, and doing
the right thing.

you republiars are the ones drowning in the propaganda,
not me.

 

[andy4theherd]

you said, "because police are sloppy, lazy and lets be honest in more
than a few cases dishonest."

you did not say, "of those 8 officers involved in this matter..."

you painted ALL police as sloppy and lazy....

 

[ohio herd]

yeh dherd will throw all 765,000 police under the bus but never seems to think it is wrong to burn down a city or shoot police when lib influenced and BFF DNC/ BLM rape pillage and burn

you're a good republican - you just make stuff up.
the word ALL is not in anything i said. you would
make a good campaign manager or surrogate
for republicans.

you post just another petty lie to avoid the fact
that the criminal justice system is corrupt and
needs to be overhauled.

 

[andy4theherd]

here are some images of what the "sloppy" and "lazy" police in Louisiana are working on today. try and point out the Black Lives Matter or Black Panther organization volunteers helping...

Moron you don't need the word all. You said police not some police nota few police not those police just POLICE. That implies all police. Someone with your "superior" intelligence" should understand that

"Blacks are criminals."

does that statement mean:
a. all blacks are criminals
b. some blacks are criminals
c. a few blacks are criminals

YOU ARE AS BIG A LIAR AS DONALD TRUMP.
WHAT YOU AREN'T BRIGHT ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND
IS THAT WITH MY SUPERIOR INTELLECT I AM CAPABLE OF
SAYING WHAT I MEAN AND JUST AS IMPORTANTLY POINT
OUT YOUR DISHONESTY.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
THIS IS WHAT I SAID:
police are sloppy, lazy and lets be honest in more
than a few cases dishonest. the entire criminal justice system needs to be overhauled. do away with jailhouse informants, prosecutors trading leniency for favorable testimony, evidence planting and the blind acceptance of a policeman's word.

INTERESTING THAT YOU HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH A POLICEMAN
SHOOTING SOMEONE 17 TIMES IN THE PROCESS OF MURDERING
HIM AND 7 OTHER OFFICERS WITNESSING THE MURDER THEN
LYING TO COVER IT UP AND MAKE THE VICTIM THE CRIMINAL.

INSTEAD YOU WANT TO WASTE TIME PARSING WORDS AND
GETTING ALL AGITATED BECAUSE YOU CANT READ THE
ENGLISH LANGUAGE.

BTW IF YOU OR I OR ANYONE ELSE HAD BEEN ONE OF 7 CIVILIANS
AT THE SCENE WHERE ANOTHER CIVILIAN SHOT A POLICE OFFICER
17 TIMES ALL 8 OF US WOULD BE CHARGED WITH CAPITAL MURDER.

THAT IS JUST ONE SMALL PARCEL OF WHAT I MEAN WHEN I SAY
YOU CANNOT TAKE THE POLICE WORD AT FACE VALUE - YOU HAVE
TO TEST IT. AND THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM MUST BE OVERHAULED. ONE DAY YOU OR SOMEONE YOU CARE ABOUT
MAY BE CAUGHT UP IN POLICE CORRUPTION AND SENT TO PRISON
OR WORSE. SO GET HONEST AND GET REAL.

A GOOD EXAMPLE - WHAT IF THESE TWO WERE COPS?
AUSTIN, Texas (Reuters) - The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals on Friday halted an execution planned for next week of a man convicted as an accomplice to a murder he did not commit in a case that raised questions about how the state applies the death penalty.

Jeffery Wood, 43, was scheduled to be executed on Aug. 24 by lethal injection. He was convicted of taking part in a 1996 convenience store robbery during which clerk Kriss Keeran was fatally shot.

In its decision, the appeals court asked a lower court to review his sentence and claims from Wood's lawyer that it was obtained in violation of due process because it was based on false testimony and false scientific evidence.

Wood's layer questioned a witness for the prosecution, forensic psychiatrist Dr. James Grigson, who told a court in the 1990s Wood would commit future acts of violence and was a threat to society.

Grigson, nicknamed "Dr. Death" for his willingness to testify against people facing the death penalty, was expelled from the Texas Society of Psychiatric Physicians and the American Psychiatric Association for ethical violations: making diagnoses of capital murder defendants without first examining them.

Wood was unarmed in a vehicle outside the store when it was robbed. Prosecutors have said Wood knew the clerk might be shot. Wood's lawyers said he was unaware that a robbery was underway.

Wood's roommate at the time, Daniel Reneau, was convicted of pulling the trigger and executed on June 13, 2002.

Under Texas' "Law of Parties," a person can be charged with capital murder even if the offense is committed by someone else.

Ten people have been executed as accessories to felony murder since the United States reinstated the death penalty in 1976, according to the Death Penalty Information Center, which monitors capital punishment.

Five have been in Texas, which has executed more people than any state since the death penalty was reinstated.
