Stick him on foot patrol. Make him walk himself back into shape.

Seriously, what would happen if this guy had to get in a foot chase with a perp and had a heart attack on the street?

Political correctness jumped the shark a looooooooong time ago, but this is ridiculous! Desk duty I can see, but on the streets? The bad guys must be cracking up!

Parent was fired in 2007, after an internal investigation determined that he had not maintained a “high level of physical, mental and emotional conditioning.”

Based on this standard, I suspect there are a lot of officers who should also be fired even if they aren't as obese as this guy.

I suspect his reassignment to road patrol was a pretext to get rid of him. 5'9" and 300#s is way to much for a patrol officer, but shouldn't keep him from performing as a detective.

Perhaps he could be Director of Midnight Basketball for the Hussein regime?

He should just move to Texas and he would fit right in.

He didn’t get that fat overnight, and he’s been with them for over 25 years.

All police depts have a fitness policy, yet how many time do we see a huge police officer? I know of one personally, bigger than this guy.

So, something smells like BS to me, in this case.

I’m not qualified to say whether he is fit enough to perform his duties, but, if not, maybe they should transfer him to desk duty and put him on a fitness program.

I think I got pulled over for a traffic stop by this cop. I tried to get around to his good side, but I ran out of gas.
