Linky?

That was a typo.  Should have said "now" instead of "not" (corrected the post).  But I guess you missed all of my numerous follow up posts after he admitted it was a lie (which I was first to post), the updated title which I prominently labeled the officer as a liar, stating he should be fired, denouncing his "joke" excuse as B.S.

Oh come on. You never met drama lama?

People that love to embellish and have what they think are great stories to tell those around them to try to satiate that weird need for odd attention? 18 years on Arfcom.

Just heard that the cop is back working, hired into another department two towns over.

That's how it works.

Prove it.

It's interesting watching the evidenciary requirements evolve as this thread ages.

The firing or resignation just happened like a day or two ago.  Even if he lateraled to a different department it would take longer than that.  Unless he has been working on it already.

guess everyone is getting in on hoaxes these days

just a guess, but I suspect the post was in jest / a joke.

yet, those who demand evidence now, needed none just a few short pages ago.

You just heard, huh?

Lol, not surprised it was bullshit.

How many times over the years has this played out the same way? Seems like there were several waitress that pulled the same stunt.

Waitresses lack integrity though.

All of them?

No.

The point is police have integrity and are to be believed.

You cannot say the same for waitresses.

Man, if I lived in an area where I thought that little about the people I'd move. Life is too short to live around that many shitty people.

I think I should have indicated my sarcasm.

My bad, bud! Been sipping on some scotch tonight, feeling a little (or a lot buzzed) .

OMG dude....

He made a standard joke.  You know... the one where everyone thinks you are an ass, except your mother-- because she has to love you.  Or some shit like that.

Let me spell it out for you.  He didn't say shit about your mother.  He said it about you.  Unwind a little bit.  Leave that bubble-wrap safe space shit somewhere else.

I've disagreed with ryann several times, and will again in the future, so I'm not in his fan club. Detach a little bit, and take another hard look at what he wrote.  It isn't what you think, and coming off like isn't sending a powerful message in support of either your mental facilities or your emotional resiliency.

You can’t trust waitresses.

They’re a slatternly lot.

I’m no Ryann fan, but you’re making a big issue outta nothing. He didn’t attack your mother or say anything derogatory about her. Sorry for your loss.

Man o Man you know he fucked up when people come to my defense!

According to search results it is less than 50 times per year nationwide. Given the population of Kansas, that would be <1 per year in the state.

We are still missing the name and photo of the cop.

That would almost be clever if your syntax wasn’t retarded. Do you let your kids write your burns for you?

I don't get it either. Part of me wonders if it's 5 minutes of fame or just wanting to play the victim.

They mentioned the cop being in his younger 20's so I wonder if social media had any type of influence on it. So much of social media made by "influencers" is completely fabricated for likes but presented as real. Like fake reaction videos, fake drama videos, fake prank videos where everyone is on it.

It's all about that endorphin rush from those "likes"

Probably slightly more after what this idiot did.

I didn't know they were that kinky.

I’m gonna do a hoax where I claim someone wrote something nice on my cup of coffee to see if anyone believes it. Maybe “hope you have a great day!”

The first page is good now

These things are always fake

From cop to security guard in just one stupid moment.

I know right?  What happened to the good old days when cops just carried a normal burner pistol on their ankle?

I don't know what it is with officers lying in this day and age of everyone having a camera, but if I was the one in uniform ... I'd just assume every second I spent in that uniform was caught on tape. And I'd be as professional and honest as humanly possible.

This officer lost a one on one fight with some dude (who was later arrested and deserves a very long prison sentence) but then claimed on Facebook that he was jumped from behind by 7 guys. I guess to save his ego? Or reputation? Or to look better? I dunno why.


And how the actual hell do you do this to someone when you KNOW there are cameras in your station? Why lie?

As pointed out,  Starbucks was not.

This article about officer truthfulness is absolutely fascinating. And depressing. And surreal. And infuriating. And disgusting.

The investigation found:

• Thousands of people have faced criminal charges or gone to prison based in part on testimony from law enforcement officers deemed to have credibility problems by their bosses or by prosecutors.



• At least 300 prosecutors’ offices across the nation are not taking steps necessary to comply with the Supreme Court mandates. These places do not have a list tracking dishonest or otherwise untrustworthy officers. They include big cities such as Chicago and Little Rock and smaller communities such as Jackson County, Minnesota, and Columbia County, Pennsylvania.



• In many places that keep lists, police and prosecutors refuse to make them public, making it impossible to know whether they are following the law.



• Others keep lists that are incomplete. USA TODAY identified at least 1,200 officers with proven histories of lying and other serious misconduct who had not been flagged by prosecutors. Of those officers, 261 were specifically disciplined for dishonesty on the job.

A USA TODAY analysis found that dozens of officers flagged by judges or convicted of crimes were summoned to testify at trial in recent years, with no assurance the defense was notified.??

In at least four officers’ cases, criminal court judges found the cops lied under oath during a trial. Court records show those four officers alone were listed as witnesses in at least 48 cases after prosecutors began receiving notices about them.

Overall, officers who appeared in notification memos were called to testify in cases resulting in more than 100 felony convictions from 2013-2018.

Across the country, thousands of defendants have gone to trial with no clear way to know that law enforcement witnesses had a history of misconduct.

David B. Green was among the officers who continued to patrol the streets despite a history of misconduct.

In 2011, Little Rock police suspended Green after he bashed a handcuffed suspect’s face into the ground during an arrest, then lied about it.?

Green claimed the suspect resisted him by trying to stand up during the encounter. A department review of body camera footage showed that the suspect didn’t try to stand. Two other officers were holding the man down while Green beat him.?

Green was suspended for 30 days for untruthfulness and excessive force. His personnel file includes at least?19?suspensions and reprimands for offenses including domestic violence, excessive force and neglect of duty.?

Green, who unsuccessfully appealed the charges against him, could not be reached for comment. In an interview conducted as part of an internal affairs investigation, Green did not deny the allegations against him but expressed dedication toward his job. "Even though I get to work and I may not go home, I still love this job," he said. Department records show he is a military veteran and received commendations in 2000 and 2005 for taking lifesaving actions.

Until November 2015, Green continued to patrol Arkansas’ largest city. His word was relied upon to?arrest and help convict defendants.

Former Little Rock Police Chief Stuart Thomas?disclosed in legal proceedings that his agency doesn’t inform?anyone at the courthouse about problems with his officers.

“We don’t maintain or forward a result of every disciplinary action to either the U.S. attorney or the state court,” Thomas said in a  deposition in 2013. “I’m not aware that we provide a list or a continuing update or anything like that.”

USA TODAY reviewed discipline files for Little Rock police officers going back 15 years, then compared them with court records. The analysis found officers who the department determined lied or committed crimes were witnesses in at least?4,000 cases.?

Officer Kenneth Thompson filed a report falsely claiming no one was injured after he knocked a suspect off his chair in 2005, despite video evidence to the contrary. He was suspended by the police department for 30 days. His sworn testimony has been used in at least 687 criminal cases since then.?

Officers James Stanchak and Michael Terry were suspended in 2011 after they were caught on body camera video conspiring to lie about using force while arresting a man at a football game. Stanchak's sworn statements have since been used in 222 cases. Terry’s have been used?in four.?

Officer Eugene Gray was suspended for 30 days in 2008 after he?lied to?internal affairs investigators about an off-duty arrest he never reported. During that?arrest, he seized a cellphone that was never?turned into the police department as evidence. Gray’s word has?been used in 256 prosecutions since 2009, court records show.?

Since 1988, data from the National Registry of Exonerations shows 987 people have been convicted, then exonerated in cases that involved a combination of official misconduct by prosecutors and perjury or a false report by police and other witnesses. They spent an average of 12 years each behind bars.

It boggles the mind.

Good thing these isolated incidents are handled promptly by the other officers in the room.

That article was unreal. Absolutely unreal. I own my own company and I demand that my employees remain professional while on my time and their ability to be honest is something I rely on for my family's financial security and for my business to succeed. With officers ... their professionalism and ability to be honest is a matter of life and death. Life. And. Death. Literally. I don't understand how the majority of these cops still have a job or how they could be trusted to testify ... EVER.
