    Police accidental discharge inside of Wisconsin Govenors Mansion

    They are being tight lipped about this. Initially they thought someone had fired at the house from the perimeter. They rolled in deep and searched but found nothing at all. Turns out it was from within and by a Capital Police Officer. Word on the street is that the cops story was it fell to the floor and fired on it's own. The problem with that story is that they are all issued Glocks! The person must not know their guns very well or they would have come up with something a bit more plausible.

    Whoops. Prior to his Capitol Police gig, did this dude happen to work for the DEA?

    No such thing as "Accidental Discharge", only "Negligent Discharge". Someone please find him a school crossing or a mall to guard.

    The story says he was fired.
    English is my second language, I have been told my use of it is harsh, apologies if this is the matter.

    So he can "accidentally" shoot a kid or a little old lady?

    Personally, I think a ND by an officer should result in him being fired. If a civilian had done that, he'd be in handcuffs.

    I agree. A double standard for sure. They get passes a civilian never would. It's BS.

    That was pretty much my math too.
