Imagine being a cop with an edgy teenager.

From the exchange with the dog owner and cop:

I think this is the messaging we need, not cops are bad or corrupt because I don't think they give a poo poo. We need to start calling them out as pussies more, because that is where a lot of this straight to lethal force poo poo comes from. They are pants wetting pussies with authority and no accountability. I was listening to a podcast with an ex Baltimore cop and his opinion is that the trigger happy police are basically the type of guy who has never been in a fight in his life before getting a badge so he has no idea how to handle confrontation.

"Racist and overly possessive"
"Only been dating for 7 months"

Sounds exactly like every other cop out there whose last name ends in a vowel

Prosecutor said in early September the probe would last "several more months" before they'd know what - if any - charges to bring.

If I had to guess I'd say that after media attention has completely died down they'll instruct a grand jury to no-bill him and he'll be reinstated with back pay.

Ex-U.S. marshal who leaked info in 'Family Secrets' mob case is punched by teen wrestler

John Ambrose, the former U.S. marshal convicted of leaking confidential information to a reputed Outfit associate, was punched out at a high school wrestling meet Friday after an altercation in the stands.

Joliet police wouldn’t identify the man who was struck, but Ambrose told the Tribune he was “the victim of an aggravated battery attack” at the meet. He declined to comment further.

According to Joliet Police Deputy Chief Al Roechner, a visiting fan in the stands was being “very vocal” during a match at Plainfield South High School and was confronted by the parent of a Plainfield South wrestler.

The wrestler, who is 17, saw his parent arguing and ran into the stands, punching the visiting fan in the face, Roechner said.

Police arrested the student, Roechner said. Though the visitor was bleeding, Roechner said he declined medical treatment.

The boy was released to his parents, Roechner said. Kendall County State’s Attorney Eric Weis said his office, which covers Plainfield South, has not yet received a referral for prosecution on the matter.

Tom Hernandez, spokesman for Plainfield Community Consolidated School District 202, said the district was aware of an "incident" that took place at Friday's meet.

He declined further comment but said the district was looking into whether any student would be disciplined.

“We are doing our own investigation, as we always do,” Hernandez said Sunday. “We will take appropriate steps as warranted.”

In 2009, a federal judge sentenced Ambrose to four years in prison after he was convicted of telling a reputed mob associate that hit man Nicholas Calabrese was secretly cooperating with authorities.

Ambrose’s attorney said the decorated former deputy U.S. marshal was just bragging to a family friend about being in Calabrese’s security detail, but prosecutors said Ambrose knew the information would be relayed to the mob.

Calabrese’s testimony in the 2007 Family Secrets trial helped convict five alleged organized crime members, including his brother Frank Calabrese Sr.

Actually according to that they probably get beaten more frequently.

Van Dyke’s lawyer compares cop’s case to black sharecroppers decision

The lawyer for Chicago Police Officer Jason Van Dyke raised some eyebrows in the courtroom on Wednesday when he compared his client, who is charged with fatally shooting a black teen, to three black sharecroppers who were brutally tortured into confessing in a 1936 U.S. Supreme Court case.

At the tail end of 30 minutes of argument on a motion to force independent journalist Jamie Kalven to identify his sources from early stories about the fatal shooting of Laquan McDonald, attorney Daniel Herbert tried to draw a comparison between the plight of Van Dyke and the three plaintiffs in the landmark Brown v. Mississippi case.

Herbert had argued that Kalven was leaked information about statements that Van Dyke – who is white – made to investigators after shooting the African-American teenager in 2014, and seemed to be drawing a parallel to the confessions the three black sharecroppers accused of murdering a white farmer in the Brown case — in which the men were beaten, whipped, and suspended by the neck in a noose.

The comparison did not appear to sway Cook County Judge Vincent Gaughan as to the question as to whether Kalven had gotten information from reports that included statements Van Dyke made to Independent Police Review Authority investigators who were probing his shooting of McDonald.

“Am I comparing Jason Van Dyke to people that have suffered years of slavery? No,” Herbert said, prompting an interruption from Gaughan, who admonished the lawyer to stick to the question of Kalven’s reporting.

The judge also disputed Herbert’s contention that the Brown decision was crucial to the landmark Miranda v. Arizona case — decided 40 years after the Brown case.

Gaughan this summer barred prosecutors from using some of Van Dyke’s statements given the night of the shooting, based on another Supreme Court ruling — Garrity v. New Jersey.

The ruling in that case has been crucial in innumerable police misconduct investigations, where police officers would be forced to chose between losing their job if they don’t cooperate with a disciplinary investigation but might risk incriminating themselves in a crimes.

“The Garrity motion is based on constitutional violations, immunized statements, should not have been used,” Herbert said. “It’s the same thing legally as those sharecroppers who were tortured.”

Kalven took the stand briefly on Wednesday, answering a series or questions from his lawyer about his background as a reporter.

Gaughan ruled that Kalven was a reporter, but after hearing arguments said he would not yet decide whether Kalven and his sources were protected by state reporter privilege laws and whether to compel Kalven to identify them.

Herbert laid out a timeline on Wednesday that he said showed Kalven had access to information from reports prepared by IPRA and was in contact with witnesses before they spoke to investigators in the case.

The information in Van Dyke’s statements given to IPRA can’t be used by prosecutors, but Kalven’s lawyer, Matt Topic, pointed out that information Herbert said could only have come from the IPRA reports was in fact from non-clandestine source — a Chicago Police press release issued the day after the shooting.

This one was a pretty blatant shooting someone in the back caught on camera. And then the officer was caught on camera planting his Taser on the body.

He pled guilty to federal civil rights charges because his state murder trial ended in a mistrial. The sad part is I don't know why he pled guilty; he probably coulda beaten the state charges with standard cop bullshit and a white jury. And I doubt Jeff Sessions' Justice Department would have been aggressively pursuing the federal case.
