and America takes another one in the........

Usually the officers in the department suspect the cops who do this. He may not have made it out of jail alive. So be it. The innocent people were scared to death, too. Anonymous should take this officer on while he is on probation.
I wonder just how many lives it has ruined....
If another cop squealed on him, they themselves may be in danger from other dirty cops? I’m sure if there was someone who squealed on this dirty cop, their name is already known.
Here’s the real story:

Isn’t that precious? He got his start as a member of SDS at Columbia.
How many innocent people’s lives did this crooked cop destroy? How many other cops are doing the same thing all to improve their stats? He’s likely not the only one in a culture of corruption.
Well said, now pass the bong.(s)
When the justice system will no longer dispense justice, when justice is whatever a judge says it is, the people will soon lose faith in the system with predictable consequences.
These are the same a-holes that arrest a person traveling through their crappy city for just owning a gun locked in a box.
How many people has he watched cry when he salted their cars with dope.
Every case he was ever involved in needs to be researched and those people set free. I bet that won’t happen.
My thoughts exactly! There are some dirty cops in Atlanta serving time for planting drugs in an elderly woman’s house that they planted after they busted down her door and shot her dead, covering up for their mistake. Their informer turned on them.
I’m appalled that such a thing as an arrest quota can even exist in our society.
Well, think about it.
A jail sentence for a narc is basically a death sentence. Especially for a narc that plants evidence.
Still, it’s what he really deserves.
When one entrusted with this sort of public authority/responsibility, commits this kind of act, the 3 strikes rule should be applied and the maximum sentence the victims might have faced should be tripled.
and America takes another one in the........
Admittedly, I'm assuming that another cop had to have apprehended him. How could the victims defend themselves? Who would believe that a cop would do this?
Look in the mirror, "your honor", you are part of that system too and were trusted to mete out justice. Yet you let that rogue cop off with barely a whack on his peepee.
Well, it is now up to the lawyers to examine each and every arrest by that criminal and then sue the carp out of NYC on behalf of each and every victim.
This is a shining example why having such stiff penalties for simple possession is dangerous. Anyone (not just cops) can hide evidence on your property that will give you decades in prison. For some drugs, it can be a package the size of a silver dollar.
They don't even have to spend that much. Under cutting laws, a package can be mostly baby powder but you will be charged for the full weight. In some states, having a certain quantity automatically adds a distribution/dealing charge.
I knew someone that had such a quantity of drugs planted on their property while engaged in a land dispute with their local government. It took several years and incredible legal fees to fight the charges. It was only dismissed because one of the cops that “found” the drugs was later caught on video planting drugs on someone else. Just like in this article, the cop was barely disciplined.
Why can't the drug warriors see that the WOD is a lie to take everyone’s freedom away? Anti-drug hysteria and ignorance is used to justify the erosion of so many God-given rights by playing on people's emotions. There have been no victories in this 40 year war but plenty of rights taken away.
LEGALIZE POSSESSION NOW!
That's the goal.

The taking away of rights is the victory. That is what they are here to do. It seems a no-brainer that conservatives would oppose it but many don't.
