McDonald's employee faces felony charges after 'special' burger was prepared for police officer

Unlike a similar case of “food tampering” involving American law enforcement earlier this year — in which an unidentified police officer forgot they took a bite of their McChicken sandwich and then accused employees of chomping on it — an incident at a Mickey D’s in California was reportedly caught on tape.

Tatyana Hargrove, an employee of a Bakersfield McDonald’s, who had recently lost a lawsuit against the city after claiming she was a victim of excessive force and civil rights violations in 2017, was arrested on Friday for allegedly tampering with a uniformed police officer’s meal.

A colleague witnessed Hargrove “rubbing a hamburger bun on the floor and spitting on it before serving it to the officer,” according to KGET. McDonald’s management, “appalled,” reported the event to authorities after reviewing surveillance footage.

“I want to ensure our customers and law enforcement that the behaviour exhibited by the individual involved in this incident does not represent my values nor those of my McDonald’s business,” restaurant owner Jim Abbate said in a statement to Fox News. “When we found out about this disturbing incident, we quickly notified the police. We are cooperating with their investigation and want law enforcement to know they are always welcome at McDonald’s.”(snip)

Hargrove was charged with mingling a harmful substance with food or drink — a felony — and her bail was set at $10,000.

Nothing about the employee being fired. I guess it would have been racist to do so.

I believe her actions were totally uncalled for. Having established that here is a link to an article about her suit against the city and why she bought it.

A long time ago, I got arrested for smoking weed in my apartment with the sliding glass door open a couple inches. Night security for the complex was an off duty cop.

So he took me to jail. I ended up getting off on pretrial diversion for having no other offenses.

Several months later, he pulled up to my drive thru window at Burger King with his wife in the car. It was late at night, I was operating the window and making sandwiches. When I recognized him, I said oh, I know you, and that was it.

So it took about 5+ minutes to make their order as they are all cooked fresh at that time. I’m quite sure that he watched me like a hawk from his car, and I can’t blame him for that, but I had nothing for this guy, he was just doing his job, and I broke the law.

I made him and his wife the best, freshest, hottest double whoppers with cheese that I possibly could, and I hope they inspected both of them closely, and then enjoyed them.

Just a random story from my life.

Exactly. You show up in uniform, the chances a cop-hating SJW ahole makes your meal is very high..

“Nothing about the employee being fired. I guess it would have been racist to do so.”

It’ll to go through internal affairs, which will take at least 6 mos. After that paid leave, she will be retrained.

Oh, wait, most employees don’t have that privilege.

The business did their part — a colleague reported it and there was a security video.

They were probably forced to hire the perp by some government regulation.

I hope everyone gets this incensed when the victim is merely a citizen.
