Speeding is small potatoes for a democrat. She needs a lot of work to make it to the democratic party and the big league, but she has potential with that display of arrogance.
An attorney friend was recruited YEARS ago by the DAs office.
Didn't take the job...Said he couldn't figure out who was the good guy and who was the bad guy.
Seventy years ago, the year I graduated from high school, The Sheriff’s office under Albert Skinner, working together with the highly effective New York State Trooper agency, Rochester’s Monroe County was a very and willfully peaceful aw-abiding community to live in. One felt very safe there, though presence of the law enforcement was hardly ever seen except in the newspaper or radio. They were, however, very particular about highway safety.
The lawyers with anything on the ball go work for a law firm or go into private practice. Working for a State’s Attorney is for the politically connected and oftentimes they aren't the brightest.
“People don’t understand how body cameras have changed the game; next thing, they’ll want them removed.”
First that I heard of body cameras was regarding a stop somewhere in the Northeast where a black woman accused a cop of being a racist bastard and had the cop terminated...until someone remembered the camera and the footage was looked at. Wound up that the cop was a perfect gentleman and the woman behaved perfectly.
The police later commented that the cameras were intended to catch racist police officers not the civilians who were framing police officers, so, of course, the woman couldn’t be charged.
A friend was saved by a bodycam a few years back when a ticketed made the same allegation against him; the accuser was more astute, and made the allegation without filing an actual report - so he couldn’t be charged with filing a false police report (though at last the cop was cleared).
As more and more wild behavior ends up on YouTube from these bodycams, I suspect those who thought it would protect them will demand they are removed; the scales fall from everyones’ eyes when the “unemployed behavior” is staring you in the face.
Most important post of the thread.
