The Aurora Police Department announced on Thursday that former officer John Haubert has resigned from the force.

Haubert was arrested after allegedly strangling a suspect for 39 seconds and hitting him in the head four times with his handgun.

The arrest warrant for Haubert revealed he was wanted for Attempted First Degree Assault, Second Degree Assault, Felony Menacing, Official Oppression, and 1st Degree Official Misconduct.

If he isn't incarcerated for this action, I fear some other department will consider him exonerated.
And, he'll feel vindicated and do it again.
