A Brooklyn cop is being investigated for Internet postings in which he brags about beating suspects, writing phony tickets and ignoring calls to his precinct.

The officer, identified by Internal Affairs investigators as a patrol cop who works in the 75th Precinct, uses the pseudonym "Brooklynbacon" and posts his messages on a site accessible through Xanga.com.

There are always a few bad apples in every occupation, but most cops are honest. This one just happens to belong to the 49% minority.

I agree. For the most part most are respectable. But we must note there are some that need to be accountable and this happens to be one.

Dang, the guy has to post his rampant corruption on a web site before they decide to do anything about it.

Maybe you haven't been paying attention. The Rats hate cops at least as much as they hate guns.

They were able to determine it was actually a cop and not some 15 yr old Rage against the machine kid?

What a contrast to the officers I have talked to who take quiet pride in putting away murderers, rapists, robbers, child molesters and other criminals who hurt the people the officers honestly try to serve.

First time I read this I thought it would be a perfect prank for a vengeful perp. "BrooklynBacon"? I've known lots of cops and never heard them utilize the "pig" terminology when talking about themselves. But, maybe he's just one sick (and stupid) cop.
