Harless was placed on medical leave and other officers donated their sick days to him when his paid sick-leave time ran out. Bad cops are only a tiny fraction of any force, and their actions shouldn't impugn the other officers who aren't caught doing anything wrong.

If he got PTSD from a “line-of-duty” incident, and now is mentally incapable of performing his job - he is actually entitled to disablility retirement.
Not advocating, just noting ...

Agreed. It certainly seems pretty clear that is what he is going for.
He went from bully to ‘victim’ pretty quickly after that video was made public.

Harless plans to appeal the decision
Show that jackbooted ass his own video with him as the star in a 1 hour loop, over and over and over, and then let him make his 'defense' in said appeal.
ANY cop threatening to murder a law abiding citizen should not only be fired outright, but serving mandatory prison time.

You’re right. There is no doubt that guy is/was doing steroids. Anyone with an ounce of brains could see that.

And, as one poster commented on youtube, this officer should end up on the receiving end of a good ol' downhome A$$KICKING!!!
Jackboot thugs of this type should be offered no quarter...

If this cop “got” PTSD from some joker biting his finger he is too much of a pussy to be a cop anyways.
I work with a lot of military veterans who have REAL PTSD. Somebody biting their finger wouldn’t have bothered them at all.

We see again the power of viral video. Free information exchange makes it easy to put a spotlight on bad actors.

“we can’t go home in bodybags.”
Who are they kidding? There are jobs far more dangerous than LEO, and most jobs have their occupational hazards. Cops aren’t alone in that. the bodybag line is just and excuse for crappy behavior. Deal with the requirements of your job or quit

I’m not even going to comment what I think of this POS. I’m glad I don’t live in Canton.

If he had PTSD then why did they keep him on active police duty instead of putting him wher he could do no harm.
It’s an excuse. A lame one at best.

Damn! I wasn't anywhere close, but this cop just scared me.
Now I have to wonder just how many of the Dallas police are suffering from these kinds of anger problems?
Mr. Harless clearly needs to get a job that does not require any interaction with people...and certainly not a job with any authority..
..sadily, he is going to kill someone someday, IMO. I bet that people who know him absolutely know that he is disturbed, and has been since he was a kid.
Mr. Harless:...get some help...

Perhaps the cop was mentally deficient to begin with. Who knows?

“The cop should be in prison!”
On our dime? REALLY?
I say get ten feet of rope, find a tree and be done with it.

This is one bad cop, and he needed firing. There are many more like him. I was about to type “but not all cops are bad,” as I know several personally. However, what gives me most concern in this story isn’t the bad cop, it’s that his fellow cops were DONATING THEIR OWN OFF TIME to him so he could keep his job while he litigated his termination. To put it in perspective, the term they use for us “citizens” in the same situation is “accomplices.” That makes them just as bad.
