Going to have it all.

“Married Pennsylvania cop Ronald Davis is charged after being filmed forcibly arresting mistress then having her committed after telling he'd 'make her look crazy' when they broke up”.

Video at link.

He's going to be popular in jail.

That'll teach her to break up with him

Must be more to the story of this very particular bad apple.

Did I read that right? Dude lives in a van down by the river!? Chris Farley was only trying to warn us.

Has the Supreme Court ruled that these particular circumstances are unconstitutional?

First I was thinking "A mistress, on a cop's salary?" then I saw the pics.

Involuntary committals can be abused and ruin people’s lives.

Was the cop filming it also arrested?

I hope so pending some serious extenuating circumstances

Had to get it on after getting it on.

Wow what a RARE occurrence! Looks to be 4  bad apples in the same area yet again? What are the odds of this happening over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again? Weird stuff....

I would assume it was a body camera.

I the flip side maybe it was best to let the crazy cop do his thing and just record it as now there is the evidence needed to put him away for a long time.

Of course he wasn't.  Being accomplices to crimes is okay as long as you wear the right colors.

What a sick SOB.  He definitely doesn’t belong in law enforcement at the very least.

They should look to see if any with or crack is missing from the evidence lock up. He was definitely paying her with meth or crack.

Yeah, usually the same story, everyone knew he was a POS and someone finally had the guts or evidence to prove it.

She will not get the Midcap stamp of approval

Mistress Methbilly.

So….dickhead was banging a methhead?

This has been discussed on Twitter quite a bit.  @Aimless has weighed in there quite a bit.

What charges will the guy filing face?  Fucking dude stood there and watched it all

Reminds me of this asshole.



Worst part is the sheriff initially got all butt hurt about the local PD arresting his guy. At least they fired him eventually.

Thus likely a large payout on for the state of PA

I wouldn't be surprised if the phrase "sure he was" was said in reaction to that.

Damn, I feel bad for her.

She can sue the dept though...

She ought to be able to beat his ass with a baseball bat.

In some areas, it's surprisingly easy to get a court order for a mental health detainer. In one jurisdiction I've worked, the court approved an estimated 95% of filings put before the judge.

All that was needed was for any random person to walk in, fill out a four or five page packet with the subject's info, their own info, an explanation of why they needed to be brought in for mental health or substance treatment, and then hand it to the judge, swear that it's contents were true under oath, and blam, essentially a warrant for their arrest is signed. Why no independent investigation? Because having a court do so would take far longer than might be safe, in the event of an emergency mental health crisis.

If you took a high-level view of a given population at large, you'd see that in about 90-98% of cases with someone who really needed treatment, either 911 got called and cops/EMS picked them up, or none of the people around bothered to ever do anything. Of the remaining couple of percentage points, the people actually motivated to go to court and spend an hour writing and filing a petition for a hold were probably family members, and probably doing so because law enforcement had repeatedly said "ehh, not high enough cause for us to grab them". In the cases where I've taken people into custody on a court ordered evaluation, there's not been a single one where it wasn't abundantly clear they needed it.

Offhand I can't think of any cases I've seen of an emergency court filing that was fabricated for personal vindictiveness (though I've seen dozens and dozens of criminal cases where the victim lied to get someone arrested). The limiting factor is that the person making that filing has attached their name to it, and once it becomes clear that the allegations are bullshit and driven out of criminal motive, the party who wrote and swore to it is fucked. The dipshit cop in this story is going to get prison time for it...and it shows the system is still working.

It's what Kanye West's handlers tried to do to him

Some places make plenty of cash, but stupid cops and firemen will still go after some nasty girl that fills the void in their deviant behavior.

I wonder how he met her?

IMO PA state police are a criminal organization. They have been abusing everyone for decades.

Google is your friend here.

Is that a struggle cuddle?
Whoever was recording is complicit.
Oh, and the big bad cop used a couple of ilegal wrestling holds...

It's the meth dollar tree mistress not the Chanel type

Stop resisting!!!!

Was probably a source before or related to a previous case.

I worked with a cop who was dating a chick he met while he was working the holding cells in the precinct. The relationship ended exactly how you would expect it to.

Overall, it's precisely because of these issues that the coresponder programs wind up being the ones solving the problem longer term.

If you take random cop with no access to medical info or further means of researching the claim, and throw them at the "he says this guy is suicidal, this guy says he's not suicidal" it often becomes an unwinnable situation. You're stuck trying to decipher who's lying, and if there's no independent witness or hard evidence, what do you choose? In some areas, policy and law may mandate a mental health hold even if the evidence is flimsy.

Bringing it all into the same realm as criminal charges is where it gets truly complex - i just had a DA an hour ago basically tell me "I'm glad I don't have your job" in reference to trying to sort out the lines between the medical standards, legal requirements, procedural requirements, and simple demands of morality and ethics..all while dealing with the tactical demands of the situation as well.

All too often the players in the game are too driven by the emotional need to win or come out on top - that investigator angry he didn't get a no-bond arrest, the family member wanting revenge, the defense attorney who doesn't want to agree to stipulations for his client only because it's what the prosecution wants, the judge who thinks the defendant isn't showing enough respect. There's no real answer for that problem, unfortunately, except to call people out on it if that's what's actually going on. Often the real motives can be obscured by the silence required by our respective roles, and the motives hidden behind that silence might not be as obvious as they seem. We had a defense attorney expressing righteous indignation against the agency in emails about filings against his client, and while I fully understood that he legigimately he thought his client was being unfairly and unethically harassed, the actual reason was purely a procedural one stemming from the court process and statutory requirements.

On top all of that, even those who are acting in the best interest of society and in accordance with their own job, often really truly lack the specific knowledge and deep understanding of mental health issues to accurately navigate them. I've found myself having long and deep private conversations with judges, prosecutors, defense attorneys, POs, etc and finding that basically none of them, no matter how skilled or experienced, really have the inherent ability to get outside their silo on their own and go obtain the information they need to make the best possible decisions. The mental health world is basically bound up in a tight ball by laws and codes of ethics, and the insight from inside on "what is the right answer for this person?" is rarely ever in the hands of the courts.

From the state that elected Fetterman, it's not really that surprising.

I hope she gets paid and burns down his camper.

Protecting and serving.

I bet she does every thing!

Unfortunately the PSP are the only law enforcement in many parts of the Commonwealth. Some small towns and townships may have a small or part time force. Some have disbanded their departments due to budgetary shortfalls.

The ones I have dealt with were ok.

But I know that there are shit bags like this guy out there too.

Yep, he'll be loved tenderly in the Pennsylvania state penitentiary.

Good riddance dirt bag cop

Yep, I hope he was charged and jailed too

Has she gotten back together with him already?
