So what can happen to a city that refuses to obey a court order?
Same as any other defendant, I assume. A whole northern process of seizing assets, Leinster against property, etc.

EDIT: Since they aren't the defendant, that won't happen, nvm.

It sounds like the judgement was against an individual detective, not the city itself, which means that the city may have no obligation to pay.

The catch here is that the person actually on the hook is the officer who was sued. It started out with more people named, but most of those got dismissed. What still makes it disgusting is that the city just got done paying $4 million to defend this officer.

Not all bad: this was revealed because of a cop. Who got fired for doing it. So remember, good, ethical cops who resist unconstitutional laws will get fired, while bad cops who will step on you will be kept. The system's design promotes evil.

I am glad everyone has cameras these days.

These police are just trying to be awful.

When they've got the left turned against them and are turning the right against them too, you know they have fucked up. (I am speaking in a general sense, not just about this video)
Nowadays everybody is finally seeing what Minority people were talking about when they said the police did fucked up things. Now the only people still blanket defending the Police are people like Brandon Tatum.

I remember this one from years ago, how far back are they digging for these videos? It kinda undercuts their theme if they're displaying decades of stuff rather than anything relatively recent.

This incident also didn't end well for the police, they wound up publically apologizing to the nurse, the officer who arrested her was fired, his CO was demoted two levels, they wound up paying her 500 grand, and the Utah House unanimously passed a bill ensuring police were forbidden from ever trying that again.

Oh, and the hospital passed an internal rule preventing the police from even entering patient care rooms and forbidding them to speak with nurses period. Rumors I heard surrounding the incident said the Police Union protested that decision by the hospital which promptly told them they were going to put "Officer Down" situations at the very bottom of their priority list unless the Union shut its trap, which it did.

I remembered this too from a few years ago. But it's not decades old, this was 2017. And as for posting it now? Now is when I remembered it, as LP Delaware (which is a great source for this) just posted it.

I'm surprised and glad to hear this was resolved mostly correctly. Cop should be in jail, but I can't ask for perfection.

Yeah, that one's only half a decade old but it makes me wonder how old their other stuff is.

Just a time-traveling robot stranded on Earth.
So here's a very recent one, from December (the dude survives):


Watch the video, then read the article below that lies to cover the cops ass.



Link to the article's broken, so I can't read it.

Otherwise, I find it rather chilling how the officers almost disregarded the guy they shot as an afterthought. Heck, they didn't even apologize for shooting him, and seemed more distraught about the cameras than the fact they shot an unarmed civilian who, as far as I can tell, posed no threat. :mad:

It's another example to those who think Sheriffs can't possibly be as corrupt as police departments.
Well I could have told them that. I even have examples.
