Today in cops gone feral

After the state gets done stealing the election, they’ll repeal castle doctrine next.

 

I wonder what the hell the backstory is on that one - details are light so far, even though its been a couple of days. The way it reads now makes it seem like the story of Botham Jean, except that this time the homeowner killed the officer breaking in. That's assuming that the officer and the homeowner didn't know each other - If they did, that detail probably makes it into an initial report somehow. It looks like a suburban home, so I wonder if there is doorbell camera footage available.

I think this one qualifies.

Phoenix police officers punch, shock deaf Black man with cerebral palsy

 

Phoenix cops, who the DOJ said has shown racial discrimination and bias against the disabled in the past, are asking people not to rush to judgement.

 

Yep no discrimination or bias at all.

From the Washington Post story. police did not mention McAlpin's disabilities in materials provided for his bail hearing (he wound up spending 24 days in jail); the white man who made the phone call that started the whole ordeal said McAlpin stole his cellphone. McAlpin was charged with theft. After an investigation the cellphone was discovered to be McAlpin's.

 

SMH. Well, he (and his lawyers) will get paid for the ordeal.

 

Charges dropped against McAlpin

Justice a long time coming.

Can we include feral DAs in this thread?
The DA in Jackson, Mississippi — as well as the mayor and a city council member — have been indicted for a real estate bribery scheme following a two-year sting operation by the FBI. Another council member pleaded guilty in October. Her take included a $6,000 shopping spree.
There are some hall of fame quotes from the DA in the indictment. He also had about $20,000 in marked bills in his office, in a lockbox disguised as a book titled, “The Constitution of The United States of America."
Oh, and a day after the indictments dropped a former sheriff for the county Jackson is in was convicted of taking bribes from a convicted felon in exchange for favors.
