    Publishing lies in police reports should be a crime with minimum punishment dismissal and incarceration if it causes wrongful prosecution of an innocent person.

    Prosecutors are equally guilty. They are too cosy with cops.

    lying on a police report should be treated the same as lying under oath imo

    Uh huh, more trolling from you.

    https://www.abc15.com/news/region-s...ciplines-officer-settles-hotel-gunpoint-claim

    "Acting Tempe Police Chief Jeff Glover concluded that Kerzaya was responsible for his actions and should be held accountable. At the same time, Glover determined that the department had failed to adequately supervise Kerzaya and provide him mental and emotional support following trauma experienced during his career.

    “I understand that my actions have caused a tremendous amount of anguish for many different people, and I cannot convey enough how remorseful I am for my actions and the aftermath that so many people have been forced to deal with and continue to deal with to this day,” Kerzaya wrote in his official response to the department's internal investigation"

    "Police body camera video showed Kerzaya listening to the hotel manager's description of a white man shortly before encountering Cumpian at a side door of the hotel"

    Eh, you won't be back.

    You're not really clear on how excessive force works, are you?

    No one, but 4 persons were threatened with deadly force without cause IE the force employed was excessive. See how that works?

    No the force was appropriate until the danger could be evaluated as explained earlier in the post.

    Cops aren’t allowed to beat up innocent people because they’re scared

    Immediately began to resist? He immediately put his hands in the air and identified himself as an employee. He didn't even match the description of the suspect.

    No, it was not. You're looking for a white dude, not a black hotel employee in uniform ffs. You have exactly zero cause to use or threaten to use force on said employee because they are not your suspect.

    Yes it was until the police could ascertain who was who and how many bad guys there were.

    True, he has already been disciplined by his force for his actions that night. Only you and him think he did the right thing

    Yet he ignored the first man he saw in the hotel who happened to be white.

    But once again 'your' suing culture is in evidence. Maybe it's time to address this culture..................

    No need because you know he's already been disciplined for acting outside his remit. Thanks for playing

    The guy was by himself. You're looking for a white guy, not a black HOTEL EMPLOYEE IN UNIFORM.
