A former Philadelphia police officer who sat next to the First Lady during President Obama's 2009 State of the Union Address has been spared jail after an attack on his ex-girlfriend.

Richard DeCoatsworth, 28, was sentenced Monday to 18 months' probation for a misdemeanor assault conviction on Sadie Martinez, 29.

The judge also ordered DeCoatsworth to get counseling and issued a stay-away order barring him from contact with Martinez, who he had been with for 15 years, reports Philly.com.

Jeez, the guy is 28 years old and retired at age 25. From the story, the retired cop’s department was glad to get rid of him. I predict his life will not end well.

It’s always easy to spot the phony, baloney, plastic banana, goodtime rock and rollers at these State of the Union Shows. They are all sitting next to FLOTUS or they are sitting behind POTUS and drilling holes in the back of his head with their eyeballs.

What a bunch of misfits in the balcony for the King Obama show! They obviously don’t know any decent citizens.

The police officer was also shot in the face after chasing a suspect. That is why he retired. Most likely has PTSD.

He looks like a psycho.

So does the cop for that matter.
