If the facts bear out I hope they lose their jobs.

I'm feeling very open-minded today. :redface:

Wow, that does seem like a large over reaction. I can see her being detained when she gets out of the car, even handcuffed. But she doesn't appear to be resiting to the degree that she needs to be taken down like she was, especially the second time when she was cuffed.
Of course this is the LAPD
This thread is fine just follow rule 9a

9a. Bashing Law Enforcement Officers.
This has never passed muster here, and never will. The specific DC forum that includes law enforcement in it's focus is not meant to be a place to jump up on a self-righteous pulpit and start ripping law enforcement apart. You will find our tolerance to these kinds of posts to be at an end. "Broad brush" anti law enforcement commentary is prohibited, we encourage you to take it somewhere else.
Yep, everybody hates lawyers, until they need one. :wink:Quote:

There are too many good and decent officers in Law Enforcement to have their reputations tainted by ones like these two, if this is true.
Many people will focus on the "bad apples" and not look past them to see the many "good guys".
I have needed one twice in the past and it just made me dislike them more. There are very few I respect. The United States is home to 5% of the world's population, but home to 66% of the entire world's lawyers. Too many.Quote:

Does anyone know LAPD's SOP for pepper spray?
Seems the Dept top , is handling it appropriately at this point.... let's hope they continue down that path. This was uncalled for and stupid, and they may pay for it with an end to their careers.
The demotion of the one comannder, sends the proper message to everyone in the Dept.
It does appear to be a couple of 'bad apples', and every occupation has them...looks like these rotten cores are about to be put into the rubbish.
I wonder what kind of new house this nurse is going to buy?:confused:
My concern is that one of them is a 22 year veteran of the LAPD. If so how much has he done that he has gotten away with? The 10 month probationary officer needs a better feild training officer to teach him the right way to deal with people and how to recognize situations that don't require King Kong tactics. Sadly both will either be fired, the veteran allowed to retire and the probationer fired, or both will be slapped on the back and essentially told to watch out for the cameras. Don't get me wrong, I am a Police Officer and if I did something like this while a subject is in handcuffs that would be it for me. Some officers do the rest of us a dishonorable disservice. To those fellow officers who take our positions seriously and do so courteously "Thank you for strengthening the thin blue line".
