Article reflects she’s a 15 year veteran... she didn’t become a slacker at the beginning of that shift. I’m amazed she hadn’t fallen into a non competative slot, moved up and be a deputy chief by now

Dude, chill with the hate. Truth is, she'd do the EXACT SAME THING no matter who it was. She just said that to try and minimize the negtive waves from her squad. And it ain't gonna work.

I got the entire jacket.

They listed it as resigned. The paperwork from the FDLE (? I think) Investigator, or maybe it was the DA's Investigator, said case closed because he resigned his position from the department and his POST. (shrugs) Wasn't as much in the PD's file.

You know how many cops get burnt by fucking up with their lights and siren?  Probably a lot.
You know that time after time, they get sued, fired, etc. for excessive force, bad decisions, etc.

Bullshit internal politics, bad laws, bad local politicians who care more for criminal shitbags than cops...

I'm surprised that this shit doesn't happen a hell of a lot more often.  
This is why our communities have problem employees like this.  They're hiring "diversity" people....
as in, we need more women, Asians, hispanics, and gay people.  Regardless of whether or not that they can do
or are fit for the job.  It's just like being a school teacher.  We have fucktons of people (especially females) come out
of college saying, "I want to be a school teacher"---not considering for a moment whether or not they are FIT TO TEACH.
That's how you end up with schools full of liberal shitheads with no grounding in the real world.

This happened to me in reverse. I transferred from an inner city PD to a ritzy suburban PD. One night I get a call about a loud party at an apartment complex. I'm driving along to the call when my Sgt. and two other patrol units fly by me running code. With no other calls pending, I wondered where they were heading and continued on my way to the party.

They went to my call and were treating it like a triple homicide. The female Sgt. bitched me out because before they could get there, a drunk had wandered off from the party. What if he later drove and hit someone? We would be liable! I just looked at them, wondering what fucking planet they were from.

I had to listen to her tell me about how she had 20 years experience. She didn't appreciate it when I told her that she had 1 year of experience repeated 20 times, and she didn't do anything that first year. She also wrote me up for not calling in K9 from home to track a purse stolen overnight from an unlocked parked car in the pouring rain.

By statute the investigation has to be completed.  Now, someone can resign to avoid having to provide an interview and statement, as agreed to as a condition of their employment.  This is something they often do to try to avoid incriminating themselves for non criminal violations of department policy and try to stifle the investigation.  Why anyone would want to hire someone who resigned while under internal investigation is beyond me.

One of the first things you have to beat into the head of rookie police officers is that just because a call permits the use of lights and siren, that doesnt mean that they need to come on. The guy that throws his lights and siren on for every priority 1 call that he gets is either a rookie or an idiot.

This officer sounds like the kind that plays the "if you arrive first, you're primary" game.  We've had officers like that here and they typically get booted after a certain number of screw ups.

I passed by my own Corporal (who was training a guy in FTO) driving to an armed robbery with no lights, no sirens, and impeding the fire/EMS brigade that was responding to stage nearby as well.

I got written up for taking a route that was 1/10 of a mile longer than "the way I should have gone," though.
