But Ferrero downplayed the recordings, saying the officer was likely “traumatized and mistaken” by the incident.
And Tyler Perry is a cinematic genius. Adam Sandler deserves an Oscar for lifetime achievement.
Oops! Like hitting “Reply All” by accident or, I dunno, snapping a screenshot of your porn tabs and then posting it into the ether…
Ooh ooh, I like this game: and Trump’s not a rapist!!!
Yes, it’s time to pull out her deposition. These fuckers are asking for it by making this bullshit a top story.
Darrow then promised to “gloss over” the discrepancy, which was buried in a 200-page report and never recounted to a grand jury, according to WKYC.
AKA whitewashing an internal investigation, AKA business as usual. And if they had been smart enough to turn off the tape recorder, they would have got away with it.
I think setting foot in a Great Clips is reason enough to just accept whatever bad consequences come of it. I mean, do you walk into a Walmart without the expectation you’ve just somehow raised the odds today is your last day on Earth?
DIRECTIONS: The game requires two or more players. All players enter a Wal-Mart store equipped with pen or pencil and a copy of the checklist below. Players have a pre-determined amount of time, I suggest thirty minutes, to walk around the store observing the customers and employees, and checking off their many defects and afflictions. The most “hits” in the allotted time wins. Good luck!

A variation that I also enjoy is more of a hobby than a game. I find it fun to carry my checklist with me at all times, and to whip it out whenever I find myself in a Wal-Mart store. Over time I attempt to fill my card by finding at least one example of each horrible defect listed. It’s like collecting baseball cards. However, I must warn you to keep a level head when playing this way. I once got so excited when I spotted that last elusive unchecked flaw, that I began jumping around and pointing at a woman in a glittery sweatshirt, shouting, “She’s got a face raisin! She’s got a face raisin!” And her husband proceeded to kick my ass right there beside the Fiddle Faddle endcap.
What luck! The first time in history something like this has ever happened and it just happened to get caught on tape! What are the odds?
Maybe amongst themselves, because it couldn’t be said publicly, they think they’re just “culling the herd”.
Another example of why the trust in law enforcement has sunk so low. When will cops figure out that this shut only puts themselves (and the community) at risk long-term?
There wouldn’t be as much scrutiny into a shooting of an actual armed hostage taker (although he had already traded in the scissors for ciggies) if police officers weren’t constantly being caught brutalizing and killing unarmed, unresisting victims. At this point there’s no excuse for not requiring all cops to wear body cameras.
“Let’s mock poor people with medical problems!”
Congratulations on both your personal empathy and impeccable manners.
“Traumatized and mistaken” but still on duty patrolling the streets with his gun.
Look, they’re in a Walmart. That’s just one step removed from visiting an ISIS training camp. The level of human rights violations in each is comparable. Mocking is light treatment versus worse fates that could befall them.
Perfection!
All the while, county judges across the nation take any LEO’s word as gospel, and plea bargains end practically every case in our courts. Corruption to the core.
I guess it’s no real surprise that a group that’s given a lot of authority attracts folks that want to use that power to get ahead regardless of who they hurt. I’m just not sure why the rest of us don’t insist that they operate with the doors open almost all the time and not allow them to do so much behind closed doors. What they hell is wrong with us?
Cover-up by Police, say it ain’t so, oh the humanity…
