Assault with a deadly weapon. Destroying evidence. How about prison?

That JBT ought to get in trouble fore pushing those other two guys around, as well.
America is no longer a free country. The KGB, or maybe Stasi, is firmly entrenched in the guise of our "police force".
This girl was white, the cop and his son were Messican.
If anyone ever wonders why blacks hate cops, consider how more frequently blacks are abused by cops AND consider how often there is no recourse against the Ubermensch in the blue uniform.
In this case, Mr. Ubermensch, and his uniformed friends, illegally assaulted a female, falsified a report, under color of law attempted to compel a witness to lie, illegally jailed the victim to force her to change her story, ad nauseam.
The DA and the “Internal Investigation Board both whitewashed the case. Mr. Ubermensch in back on hte street, once again the “Armed & Dangerous” stalk the streets, uniformed and above any law, and do it on our tax dollars.
Remember this well:
The reason such behavior is condoned is to condition the public to the abuses of a police state. Whether a white girl in a convenience store who was rear ended by a cop’s son or a black abused by the cops - both are used to condition the public to accept the increasing tyranny of a socialist government.
Why is the cop not charged with filing a false police report like we would?
With the tape available, the city prosecutor still went forward with prosecuting lawless. What were they thinking?
Why was Lopez Jr. not charged with assault?
Why was Lopez Sr. and other officers not charged with attempting to tamper with evidence for trying to get the tapes erased?
DA decided NOT to charge Lopez Sr. Jr. or other officers, but decided to charge Lawless, although tape would exonerate her.
Corruption all around.
While unavoidable in this case, avoid contact with the government’s police.
What was the purpose of this article, it is a rehash of the initial events (that occurred almost a year ago) plus information about the Internal Affairs investigation (when was it concluded). There are a lot of words but nothing about the experience of the officer nor his record, I doubt this level of rage occurred (out of the blue) without previous incidents.
It seem, quite often, that police departments are reluctant to take action against an officer because the fear this will be seen as an admission of liability. Instead they choose to reinstate someone who clearly does not have the temperament to be a police officer and whose action appears to be criminal. The probability of another incident is very high.
I see that Philadelphia’s “Finest” have not changed much in the 20 years since I lived there. The only difference is that 20 years ago the cop’s name would more likely have been Murphy or Ianucci than Lopez.
An Internal Affairs investigation found no misconduct among officers who spoke with the clerk about the tape.
Of course they didn't -- there was no videotape of the officers trying to get him to erase the original videotape.
There's no law anywhere in that department, top to bottom.
Have to wonder if Lopez Jr. still has his carry permit.
He joined in the assault. None of us would still have ours if we attacked someone.
It is Philadelphia.
At the very minimum, the LEO should be charged with ADW. And his punk son should get a heavy aggravated assault charge for manhandling the girl like he did.
BTW, in every jurisdiction I have experienced, the driver in the rear is ALWAYS at fault in a rear-end collision. The cop and his punk kid need to be under the jail.
Ironically, the cops are always complaining about the “no snitch” culture around Philly.

A draw weapon? A confrontation over a very minor T/C?
What the hell is wrong with these law enforcement officers?
Then the LEOs kid assaults the female?
Good Lord!
Some people just can’t handle authority. Unbelievable.
An Internal Affairs investigation found no misconduct among officers who spoke with the clerk about the tape. But it concluded that Lopez had verbally abused Lawless, had jammed his gun into her face and had violated departmental procedures that night.
!!! These abominations are not going to stop until EVERYONE involved -- both the initial bad actors and the fellow bad actor thugs in the department, the DA's office, etc. who cover for them -- are criminally prosecuted and imprisoned if found guilty. Until then, police departments like these are just another armed gang (but worse, because they're operating under the color of government, paid for by us).
