What are we allowed to say about this?? Saying "this is a travesty of justice and this guy deserves to be in jail" is not "general bashing". This. Except around here nobody gets jail time for stuff like that. They get suspended sentences or deferred sentences and probation |

if i am answering a work related email on my phone, and i hit and kill someone, i'm good to go? ar-jedi View Quote Can't speak for your state probably covered under distracted driving or vehicular manslaughter. The state this occurred in the legislature put an exemption to allow law enforcement and I'd assume emergency services such as fire and ems the ability to use electronic communication devices in a moving vehicle. Some states ban all use of non handsfree equipment so the exemptions are in place to allow for radio use. Some departments even where it is allowed restrict the use to non-moving and will have administrative penalties for violations. |

Widow should rightfully prevail with her civil case, but under our current rule of law there was no criminal act committed.
Anybody who thinks the LA District Attorney would give some beat cop special treatment doesn't know how this works |

So are some of you saying 100% of ALL such/like incidents involving NON LEO's resulted in criminal charges? Some make it sound like 100% of the people who have ever been involved in such an event, who were not LE, have been arrested... for some reason I don't think that's so.
I bet he loses his job and his agency pays out a max insurance claim... a criminal charge is minor and the least of the officers problems. |

One law for thee, another for me.
Or, brake pedals don't work on cruisers so stopping to type out a text is not possible. Or, police are so overworked that they don't have time to stop to type out a text reply. Or, police don't have to give a shit since it won't matter if they run over someone while typing out a text reply. |

Not only did he kill Olin, he lied about it. He initially claimed that Olin swerved in front of him. Several days later when confronted with evidence that Olin was in the bike lane at all times, he changed his story. Way to serve and protect. Blue lives matter. Fixed your typo... |

Cop needs to be doing at least 5 years in prison for vehicular manslaughter.

I'll take a shot at it.... The deputy should be charged. What a department or state's policy is, or what exemptions they may have, doesn't substitute for morality. Fact: Guy driving a car allowed something to distract him and that resulted in the death of someone who was just minding his own business. I just can't imagine that the content of a email was worth the risk of hurting someone, much less was more important than a life. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

So I'm driving down the interstate at 65 mph in my 80,000lb rig and I get a msg across my company Qualcomm unit, look over to read, it only takes a second... Loud crashing noise gets my attention, I've just crushed a guy on a motorcycle, from what I see in the mirror. I wonder if I can get the "company business" exemption from prosecution of criminal neglect? |

Anybody who thinks the LA District Attorney would give some beat cop special treatment doesn't know how this works He did lie initially. Is that legal? If that is the case then he should be done in Law Enforcement since that becomes Brady / Gigglio material and the cop shouldn't be used in court. I know of very few agencies anymore that will touch someone on a Brady / Gigglio list. Once again this is more of an administrative issue at this point and should be dealt with after any criminal decisions are dealt with. |

View Quote It's bad enough that we aren't all held to a basic standard. I get important emails too, but I know better then to drive and email. Tack on the lying that seems so easy to do and highly protected when you have a badge and people wonder why there is PR issue. On the flip side, we can't voice these concerns without being accused of being BLM or some other hate group. Nice strawman. Unfortunately LEOs find themselves in this weird position where there is absolutely manufactured hate and despicable crime being waged against, but then by and large they are awful at correcting their own problems. |
