Indy cops story doesnt match video

[traderdan]

Wow, no sure how I missed this. I guess I need to put in some OT at work so I can squirrel away some bribe money in case I ever get arrested.

We are turning into Mexico...$500 in Juarez will get you out of almost anything.

BS, we are trained to articulate the FACTS, not make them up.

Not speaking to your training or any LEO training anywhere in the state of Indiana, but I know that police, when they do not have the facts, either through basic ignorance of events or because of poor recollection, are not above outright fabrication of events that did not happen, or of blatantly ignoring facts that color a situation against the officer's interests. Not remotely claiming it's rampant, but it does happen.

Perhaps but we are not TRAINED to do this as alleged. Those actions sit squarely on the shoulders of the officers who do it.

Maybe the guy told the cop that the cop couldn't go home that night. The guys in blue are real serious about going home.

Repped.

 

[jgreiner]

Nothing will happen to this cop.

 

[Baditude]

Ok but why were their rooms given away while they were at dinner?

How often do you visit INGO?

Touche'.

As I watched this again it became quite obvious to me that C8 thinks they might have a story. It appears the real motivation is tooting their own horn. It is more about what we have found, done and took straight to the top than the story it self. BTW I didn't know anyone even watched local news any more. I sure don't.

Bottom line is the old dude was acting like a douche. I would bet the audio would be interesting. And as others have said there is WAY more to this than what we see.

 

[Birds Away]

I agree that there has to be more to the story. Unfortunately, I don't know if the "rest of the story" will justify taking an old man down twice. Being a douche is not against the law. If it were might be little more than

Looks like in the first take down he gave the old finger wagger a throat hug.

 

[mainjet]

It's possible that the old man made his fingers form the shape of a gun. Which we all know from reports of kids being suspended from school for this very thing means that it is a real gun. If we had audio we would probably hear the officer yell "FINGER GUN!" just before taking the man down.

You know - I think it did look like a fingergun that he made at the officer.
You might have something here. It all makes perfect since now. We all know how dangerous making gun shapes can be in public. We've all seen the news. If anything, it's a violation of the four gun rules.

It looked like that guy swept that cop right in the face, too.




Hey Mainjet - Why is your post in purple, anyway.

 

[buckwacker]

Wow I have read some goofy stuff but that one takes the cake.

It wasn't my logic, it was yours. I just took it to the next level.

**** the Poeleece.

Hey Mainjet - Why is your post in purple, anyway.

I have pretty much just come to a point on this forum where everything I say is purple

 

[j706]

It wasn't my logic, it was yours. I just took it to the next level.

Considerable difference between the two though...wouldn't you agree?

 

[Bunnykid68]

From the time the officer started talking to them to the time of the take down was 16 seconds. What the hell could the old guy have done in 16 seconds to **** this guy off that bad and then fail to mention it in his report?

 

[Mokkie]

Just another case of protect and serve. Protect his job and serve his self interest.
