CP is completely missing the point. He's acting like the two events aren't comparable. We don't know if they are comparable.

The point is that the chief was pressured to step down after one and not the other...WHEN WE DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.

But you are deriving an opinion without taking into consideration that it's the second such event in the same general area..

The bottom line is the cop screwed the pooch royally in this case. The cop brothers didn't turn on their cameras responding to a sexual assault call, why? They murdered a woman and don't want to own up to it.

I read somewhere that the body cams do not run continually but have to be turned on before an encounter. I'm surprised by the dash cam though. Also, I don't think "they" is appropriate. I think the driver in the car was as surprised as anyone.

What is wrong with smoking reefer or working in a cafeteria?

Are those people disposable?

Cops should be required to carry individual liability insurance or the money for these settlements should come out of the pension fund.

That's interesting.

In practice, it would make them more cautious. If you brutalize somebody and your insurance company has to pay out, your premiums go up.

That means more bad cops would walk away from the job or get put behind a desk. The city could increase pay and pass the cost of settlements with civilians onto the insurance company which means the majority of cops would get rewarded with better pay and lower premiums.

You would lose cops period..... good and bad....they already don't get paid enough and now you are making them liable for every lawsuit that comes up. Several times the individual wins money even when the shooting or force is deemed necessary bc of the way our court system is run.
