Yeah, but it’s that witch Beyonce the one is making me hate cops.

I come from a law enforcement family. I’m surprised this guy lasted THIS long.

This guy will need to use an alley some day —

He probably has a job offer already from some other department that likes that pro-active policing.

I hate to be that guy, but if he had been a black teenager telling people to run over police officers and informing them how to avoid being charged, wouldn’t he have already been arraigned? I mean, this isn’t “Fired with loss of pension” conduct, this is “Minnesota criminal code section 609.713” conduct.

“aint that America somethin to see”…You do the same thing and ‘resignation’ would not be an option to fix it. The man asked people to kill people. And he was a Cop. But not to worry!. He’ll be back in another place, in another Police Department and none for the worse.

Academi is proud to welcome Jeff Rothecker into our family. He’s known for his no nonsense attitude and his take no prisoner approach, unless, of course, there’s money to be had.

Please welcome Jeff.

That seem like it should be a criminal offence and even ban him from law enforcement for life. WTF
