1. Amazing, the cop was cleared of any wrong doing but the girl got
$60,000.00 for nothing.

Only in America

15. For nothing????
What planet are you on? She was assaulted for what, at worst, should have been a civil matter. At least that's what the police would tell you or I if we had a similar dispute with a merchant. F-ckig PIG. I don't like that word in reference to police but this guy earned the title.

19. I think my point was misunderstood, its ironic that the city feels that
NOTHING was done to warrant criminal charges against the cop. But even though NOTHING was done the city still felt compelled to give the girl 60k, personally she should have got more and a formal apology from the cop and his superior's

22. It's only a matter of time before the police brutality advocates
come in here and yell at the rest of us for "wanting police to be killed in the line of duty".

4. Even more amazing...
What was a McDonalds worker doing behind the counter at a Wendy's? :)

Holy moley, that cop is an asshole. I guess the next time I think I'm overcharged for my combo meal, I can assault the employee?

Jeez.

6. In CERTAIN (RARE) cases, civilians should be allowed to use....
Edited on Tue Oct-18-05 12:48 PM by AX10
force (so be it lethal) agains the cops. The beating in New Orleans would have justified that. This cop had NO RIGHT to use force against the girl. It's an outright abuse of power. No apology from me.

This shit has to stop. The FOP, a.k.a "FACSIST ORDER OF PIGS" must be smashed! :argh: Strip the government of it's power.

It could have been worse, the PIG could have had a Taser and the girl could have died.

8. I agree

Why should anybody allow someone to beat up on them just because that person is wearing a badge?

7. That asshole is on the wrong side of the badge.



It makes me wonder how many other times he pulled this scam off successfully. All he has to do is intimidate a minimum wage worker into giving him ten bucks. If his photo made the news in Dayton maybe others will come forward.

10. I noticed that. She probably knew she was being scammed.



I'm glad the manager didn't weasel her out too, just because she was accused of doing something by a cop.

11. At the risk of redundancy, why do Black people always get...
...pepper-sprayed or tasered by white cops? I'm sure bad cops exist in all races but it seems that the bad white ones do far more harm to Blacks than the bad Black one do to whites!

It's not as though they're hiding occurrences of Black cop-white civilian misadventures; if it occurred t would supplant the 'missing white woman' of the day!

13. I should find that cop and pepper spray HIM...
And then kick him in the balls a few dozen times. I SHOULD, but I'm not going to. Fuck that smug prick! I hope the took they $60K out of his paycheck, but I doubt it. Most likely, taxes were raised because this asshole wanted to play cowboy.

14. that's why all law enforcement
should be given intensive psychological screening and at least have a couple of classes in sociology and psychology, not just criminology. I, as a taxpayer, am willing to pay my fair share for increased wages and benefits for the right officers who want to be officers for the betterment of society and helping people; not ones who are on a power trip and like people fearful--also do anything that want, sometimes against the law, because they can get away with it!!!!!

21. Even with that training, things like this would STILL happen.
Look at the number of cops in the country. With that many, you are going to have some outrageous incidents every year, no matter what you do.

24. That's true, but it shouldn't be taken as an excuse against...
psychological screenings, criminal background checks, etc. It probably won't ever eliminate this kind of behavior from the police force, but it will go a long way towards reducing the problem.

16. IIRC, the video showed that the cashier placed the bill in the $10 spot
in the register.

When the supervisor looked through the cash drawer, he did not find an errant $20.

The cop was wrong, or maybe felt that he could do what he pleased.

18. That cop was not making a mistake.
He knew perfectly well he'd only given her a $10, I bet he was proud of making money each meal-time instead of spending it.

And he was just pissed that a young Black girl dared to stand up to him. If I was her I would not have got into a car with that evil bastard either. It's criminal that he was not sacked and jailed, like a Black cop doing that to a White girl would be, ... if he was lucky.

26. WTF, if any other customer walked back there and did that
THEY would have been arrested. Just because he's a cop he had no right to assault that underage girl. As he was personally involved, he should have had another cop handle the situation.
