Florida deputy fires weapon after mistaking sound of acorn hitting patrol car for gunshot

A cop hears an acorn hit the roof of his car, mistakes it for a suppressed weapon firing at him, and shoots up his own car. There was a handcuffed suspect in the back of the car. Guy's gonna make bank.

Mississippi ex-deputy gets 20-year sentence in racist torture of 2 Black men

 

WTF Mississippi? After a neighbor complained about them staying in a white woman’s home, the Black men were tortured by people who had sworn an oath to serve and protect them.

 

Prison is going to be interesting for the "goon squad."

 

FWIW, these guys were equal opportunity scumbags. This particular case involved two black men, but they were also abusing, harassing and shaking down poor white meth heads as well. Much more of the latter, in fact, according to the reporting.

 

It's worth absolutely nothing, in case you were wondering. I'd say I hope these guys get theirs in prison, except they'll be put in protective custody. Cowards till the end.
