Cop in America doing a bad job, again

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
The news writing sounds more horrible. The Chief was sneakily left a note, with a KKK coat. The video was less intense. It was a big printing, left on yellow raincoat. The later does look like more of a prank; but still a nasty one. I'm sure the Chief knew there's a CCTV there recording.

Millions and millions of dollars would be a start but you're right it's very sad what that man has lost and can never get back.
I look forward to him becoming a cop in another state after serving 6 of his 12.
12 years. Such bullshit. I wonder how many years some of the folks he planted drugs on were facing.
Just what I was thinking... and even considering their charges, how much anguish has he inflicted on them in the short run and the long run?
Absolute scum.
It should have been the total years they served x 100
The video @villain linked said one of his victims lost custody of his daughter due to the planted drugs. I can't even imagine......
And thanks to qualified immunity this asshat can't be sued and will likely keep his pension. Every asset of his should be confiscated, sold, and distributed to his victims and the pension fund should pay out as well. Instead these people will be compensated from tax dollars.
Think about how many families he alone has destroyed? It's disgusting.
I say this all the time, but things like this is far more disruptive (imo) than cops who outright kill people.
There's many 100s/1000s of cops like this guy who steal, lie, cheat, assault and abuse their power over people all the time, and the amount of people that level of destruction affects is countless, because they don't get caught until after they've ruined the lives of many (and there'll be some that don't get caught at all)
They're just the few bad apples that the Piggy sympathisers like to bleat on about, don't you know.
Anyone think Mumia will ever get out? Anyone really think he killed a Philly cop?
One bad pig ruins the whole sty, or something like that.
Never understood things like this. It's a spark like this that could start a riot. So why make a situation worse, unless you want chaos?
wonder what's the total number of years people are in jail due to the many cops like this. in the hundreds? tens of thousands?
Police have released their bodycam footage, and surprisingly, it appears to be above board. It's body camera footage from two of the officers (the footage from the cop throwing the baggie is in the comments) and they overlap. You see the baggie being found on one of the passengers, and handed off (along with other belongings) to an officer who then (in video number 2) hands it over to the officer who threw it into the car. Still unsure why he needed to put the baggie in the car, though, but he acknowledges that he threw it in there and gives his reasoning (it's empty and he didn't want to hang onto it.)
I suppose that’s good — that he didn’t plant anything. I know it happens anyway but it’s a bitter taste to watch it nonetheless.
So a post that has almost 200k likes on twitter is actually misleading. Social media, yo.
It really doesn't seem like enough time.
The damage he's done is practically unquantifiable.
Perhaps, but best to remember Redcafe is social media as well. Reddit too, if you use that.
I very much doubt that any post on the Caf is getting 200k individual views, let alone 200k interactions, in the space of 24 hours. But I wouldn't lump a message board into the same social media bracket as facebook/twitter etc anyway, as they are way more niche. Reddit is more of a halfway house.
I don't know. Personally I have probably viewed Plech's book of Kopite post about 100K times.

Listen mr smarty pants, don't bring you "facts" in here. If you want to do that take it over to the Fox News Thread.
Social media really is incredible sometimes. I thought that was going to be a juicy video
and then I watch five secs and my literal first thought was “wait that’s an empty bag”. But barely anyone in the comments section seems to even acknowledge it.For what?
Planting evidence, i think?
edit: apologies, didn't plant evidence, cleared up by WI_Red

except, according to a later post above that is not what happened
Shit like this (blowing up false stores) hurts the larger goal of stopping this from ever happen again.
Ta, missed that second post bud. Agreed with the bolded bit. There's enough legit stuff to criticise them for, without the fake news.
No worries, the video got me worked up too, especially after the story of the Florida cop higher up. That one was nauseating. Need to constantly remind myself to stop and research before running rage.exe
Very true
I was browsing while taking a break from work and obviously just skimmed through the stories, especially the one about the cop who did get 12 years for planting evidence. But yeah, so much false information that's spread from all directions these days.
Personally I disagree with this line of reasoning, not just on this topic but any time a false accusation occurs. I don't think takes away from the integrity of the issue at hand.
You can't expect 100% perfection on any cause, there's gonna be mistakes made, bad actors, false information etc.
We're humans at the end of the day, we gotta be given some grace to be imperfect.
Would you extend that same line of thinking to officers?
I am not being flippant, because if we are going to hold them to a high standard of making no mistake sin split second decisions (and we should when it comes to force!) then we can as a society take a few minutes to research something before amplifying a false narrative in social media. Or, if the corrective information comes out later, we need to use just as much energy to amplify the truth instead of going "oops". Truth matters because it is the truth, and not because it is convenient.
Optically, what happened there looks really bad and cops should probably know better.
