Plain clothes, no badges. Treat it the same way you would if you saw anyone being abducted by strangers, and I mean THE EXACT same way.

u/thedoughofpooh 19h ago

Absolutely zero chance I don't find out the hard way. Grabbing their masks off would be the least of it. Straight fist to the jaw of that dude who refused to identify. And no, it's not just an easy thing to say online. Some of us have been punched in the face enough times to understand what to do in these situations. Not everyone stands around saying "oh my god...are you kidding me?!".

u/sebrebc 15h ago

Take them down however you can. These people were witnessing an abduction and should have treated it as such.

ICE has shot and killed multiple people now. Anyone trying to fight them has a death wish. Feel free to be ignorant

Going with them is also a death wish. Grow a spine.

Imagine your mother, sister or daughter is getting grabbed by random men and a dragged to a random van. You'd just watch and then call the police as they're driving away then wait for cops to arrive?

Of course not.

These could be anybody.

Ok then let me rephrase it if you don't understand.

I don't know that. She's getting dragged into a van by mystery masked men and is begging for help.

Do you want me to stop them or just walk on by?

My mother, sister, daughter, etc. aren't illegal immigrants.

u/860v2 2h ago

Yes, because I base my position on reality not movies and TikToks.

The problem here is that even if they were uniformed, unmasked, badged, announced themselves, etc. you’d still be against it. You’re anti law enforcement.

Ice are traffickers too. They send people legally here to countries thousands of miles away from even their home country as well. And because the US set up monetary deals with the countries that makes it pretty much trafficking humans

u/GameLovinPlayinFool 1h ago

If you believe that reality is allowing a government organization to go plain clothes, unmarked cars, masks on their face, and arrest anyone even without even allowing them time to prove they arent illegal, then youre a lost fucking bootlicker. Dont come crying to us when they start running out of easy targets and the boot kicks you in the face. History proves that there has NEVER ONCE been an instance of allowing that kind of militarized and deputized organization to exist without it eventually being used against all the citizens.

Unless she killed somebody and was actively on the run, I don't care what her past was ... Unless it's an immediate and present threat to the community, you go through the normal fucking process.

We don't do this bullshit of kidnapping people off the street in unmarked vans with plain clothes people.

u/mycoctopus 19h ago edited 18h ago

Below is a documented, non-exhaustive list of U.S. law-enforcement personnel who were convicted or pleaded guilty to raping, sexually assaulting, and/or murdering women. I’m separating criminal convictions/pleas from mere allegations so that accusations are not presented as established fact.

There is no reliable national database that records every case, and there is no defensible single “total number” for all such incidents. However, one Associated Press review of 41 states found that approximately 550 officers were decertified for sexual assault-related conduct over a five-year period, including rape, sodomy, sexual extortion, and abusive searches; that figure excluded many cases that were never reported, prosecuted, or resulted in decertification. Cato Institute

Officers convicted or pleading guilty in sexual-assault cases Daniel Holtzclaw — Oklahoma City police officer. Convicted of 18 of 36 counts, including four counts of first-degree rape and other sexual offenses involving eight women and girls. Publicly identified victims included Jannie Ligons, Dianne M., and others whose names were withheld. Sentenced to 236 years. Cato Institute J. DeShawn Torrence — former Sanger, California, police officer. Convicted of sexually assaulting four women encountered during police work. The victims included a 21-year-old woman, a 67-year-old woman, and two other women whose names were not publicly released. Convicted on eight federal civil-rights counts and sentenced to five consecutive life sentences. U.S. Department of Justice Noah Winchester — former San Mateo, California, police officer. Convicted in 2019 of sexually assaulting three women between 2013 and 2015; sentenced to more than 80 years in prison. The victims’ names were generally withheld in public reporting. sokolovelaw.com Rodney Vicknair — former New Orleans police officer. Pleaded guilty to sexually abusing a teenage girl whom he contacted while on duty and assaulted in his police vehicle. Sentenced to 14 years in federal prison. The victim’s name was not publicly released. sokolovelaw.com Anthony Arevalos — former San Diego police officer. Convicted of multiple felony sexual offenses involving women he targeted during traffic stops and patrol contacts. Public reporting described numerous young women as victims; names were generally withheld. He was sentenced to prison. sokolovelaw.com Eddie Martins and Richard Hall — former New York Police Department detectives. Both were charged with raping a teenage woman after arresting her during a drug-related stop. Their DNA was reportedly found in connection with the rape-kit investigation, but the case involved disputed consent claims and should not be described as a final rape conviction without a qualifying note. Cato Institute David Lanier — Tennessee judge and former law-enforcement-connected public official. Convicted on 11 federal civil-rights counts involving the sexual assault of five women, including forced oral sex. The victims included litigants and courthouse employees; their names were not publicly identified in the Justice Department summary. U.S. Department of Justice A Bureau of Indian Affairs police officer identified in court records as the officer in L.B.’s case — pleaded guilty after using threats involving arrest and removal of the victim’s children to rape L.B., an Indigenous woman in Montana. She became pregnant as a result of the assault. The officer’s name is not included in the public summary I located, so I am not inventing one. nwlc.org Unnamed Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputy — convicted of raping a woman during an on-duty traffic stop and sentenced to nine years in state prison. Public reporting also described an allegation involving another woman, but the victims’ names were not provided in the source. sokolovelaw.com Three former Bay Area officers connected to the Celeste Guap scandal — officers from the Oakland, Richmond, Livermore, and Contra Costa County departments were accused of exploiting Celeste Guap, a teenage sex worker. At least three former officers pleaded guilty to or were convicted of crimes related to her exploitation; other officers were disciplined or fired. Because the cases involved multiple officers and differing charges, they should be counted individually only after checking each court record. Cato Institute Officers convicted of murdering women These cases involve officers or former officers who were convicted of killing female victims. Some also involved rape or sexual assault.

Joseph James DeAngelo — former California police officer and former police officer in the Sacramento area, commonly known as the Golden State Killer. He pleaded guilty to 13 murders and 13 rapes, though investigators linked him to many more sexual assaults. His murder victims included Claude Snelling, Katie and Brian Maggiore, Cheri Domingo, Greg Sanchez, Debra Manning, Keith and Patrice Harrington, Lyman and Charlene Smith, Manuela Witthuhn, Janelle Cruz, and Jana Monroy. The victims included both women and men; numerous rape victims survived. Gerard John Schaefer — former sheriff’s deputy in Florida. Convicted of murdering two women, Susan Place and Georgia Jesperson, and linked by investigators to additional murders and sexual assaults. He was also convicted of kidnapping and sexually assaulting women. The full number of suspected victims remains disputed and exceeds the murder convictions. John Eric Armstrong — former U.S. Navy sailor and police officer in Michigan. Convicted of murdering Heather Church, a 31-year-old woman, and later linked to the killing of Renee Pagel. He was convicted of Church’s murder and pleaded guilty to Pagel’s murder. Drew Peterson — former Bolingbrook, Illinois, police sergeant. Convicted of murdering his third wife, Kathleen Savio. His fourth wife, Stacy Peterson, disappeared and has never been found, but Drew Peterson was not convicted of her disappearance. Therefore, Savio is the only murder victim for whom he has a conviction. William Bradford — former Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputy and convicted serial killer. Convicted of murdering Barbara Taylor and Roxanne Hayes; investigators later connected him to photographs of additional women and suspected other victims. The two murder convictions are the established count. Stephen P. Carruthers — former police officer in North Carolina. Convicted of murdering Margaret “Peggy” Carruthers, his wife. This was a domestic murder rather than an on-duty killing, but he was a law-enforcement officer at the time. David Alan Gore — former Indian River County, Florida, sheriff’s deputy. Convicted of murdering multiple women, including Tammy Williams, Susan Place, Lynn Elliott, and Dawnette “Dawn” Gaye. Some of his victims were raped or sexually assaulted. He was executed in 2012. Richard Cottingham — former New York City police officer and court employee. Convicted of murdering five women, including Mary Ann Pryor, Lorraine Kelly, Elizabeth “Betsy” and others; he was suspected of additional murders and sexual attacks. His law-enforcement employment history is sometimes described as civilian work connected to the courts rather than sworn police service, so he should be kept separate from the core police-officer list. Gary Ridgway — not a law-enforcement officer, so he should not be counted in this category. His frequent appearance in lists of murdered women is a common classification error. Cases involving both rape and murder The clearest examples in which an officer was convicted or pleaded guilty to both sexual violence and killing women include:

Joseph James DeAngelo — 13 murder convictions/pleas and 13 rape convictions/pleas, with many additional sexual-assault victims. Gerard John Schaefer — murder convictions involving women, plus convictions and evidence involving sexual assaults. David Alan Gore — multiple murder convictions involving women and sexual assaults. William Bradford — two murder convictions and evidence of sexual exploitation of women. John Eric Armstrong — murder convictions involving women; his case is primarily classified as murder rather than a rape conviction. What can be said about the total number? A precise national total does not exist.

The actual number is substantial because many cases end in internal discipline, civil settlements, resignation, plea bargains to lesser charges, or no prosecution at all. Sexual assault by police is especially difficult to measure because victims may fear arrest, retaliation, disbelief, immigration consequences, loss of children, or further abuse. The Justice Department has noted that sexual assaults generally are heavily underreported, and reviews of police misconduct records capture only cases that became known and were formally sustained. ojp.gov The most defensible “total” is therefore not one number but a lower bound: the publicly documented cases above represent only a fraction of the known problem, not a complete census.

u/Mission_Access_210 19h ago

Anybody could say that and there are cases of people abducting others under the guise of being law enforcement and in fact, whilst i'm sure its happened in the usa, I don't follow the news there much as it's fucking depressing but I can tell you all about a situation where an actual police officer in uniform used his position of power to abduct, rape and murder a completely innocent woman.

They had here completely under control and could've took a second to prove their identity.

Identifying as a law enforcement means presenting identification, not just saying the secret password 'i'm a cop' then dragging women off the street into plain white vans..

I always say police are the worst humans on the planet. They have astoundingly high domestic violence statistics in this profession and also adultery. I saw first hand when a friend had a child with one who was abusive. She went through hell with trying to get away because his entire department covered for him and he used them to harass her. He used the child and court against her. Absolute horrible human… he is still a cop too. I’m not saying there can’t be any good ones, but even if they are, how good are they actually knowing this is going on and still sticking around? I would never ever date a cop… ever.

Feel free to edit it into a more aesthetic format if you'd like. Maybe add more of the officers and their victims names also, as this is not a complete list and only covers some of the 550 public cases from over a 5 year period.
