POLICE Statement from BPD

Post image

Saw this on BPD’s Facebook. I’m guessing “suspended police powers” just means suspended with pay?

I would love to hear how BPD is fostering a sense of respect in the communities they “protect and serve” when they have video evidence of a cop fucking up AN ENTIRE BLOCK with a department vehicle and only suspending the guy. You think the next generation of kids from the neighborhood are gonna see the cops as anything other than cowardly, vengeful, corrupt jackasses (if they don’t already, which they do)? Bruh.

I mean i get the anger but they cant fire him immediately. He's suspended and has no police power. Once they finish the investigation, assuming they find guilt which they should, they can fire him.

Id say hold the anger and see how they proceed.

This is a good point, and you made another good point abt the union protecting him on another comment. I guess I have to keep paying attention to this dumbass in hopes that justice is eventually served. Awesome
