Lol, wut.
Is it fair for the community to continue paying for a cop that is not serving them? If a civilian is working he is actually being productive. Cops are civilians they are not military.
The old "I was in fear of my life" defense.
Bullpucky.
Do you get fired from your job if you are pending investigation?
I can be fired and/or disciplined without notice and without much defense. It's never happened to me but it has to other co-workers (disciplined) and it was time off without pay. No investigation other than "did s/he do it? Fine. Go home for X days".
But then again, I'm not a member of a union.
So the cop shoots this lady and gets put on paid leave. How is this equal to what would happen to a person who isn't a cop if they shot this lady?
I don't think any of that. What I do know is that a civilian that is not a cop doesn't get a tax payer funded vacation.

Maybe, maybe not. Depends on what I'm being investigated for. What I know for sure is that I won't be getting paid to sit at home and do nothing.
I didn't realize I was discussing with lawyers. Yuck, I'm done now.
Maybe you should be.
Maybe the firecrackers were closer to the shooter's side of the car.Thank God. Now I don't feel compelled to respond to all this.
The "fear for my life" thing is going to be tricky since it appears that the OTHER OFFICER RIGHT NEXT TO HIM was not. Reasonableness and all.
I keep coming back to the collective lack of experience in that car....

They usually do. They have them do non-police related jobs, wiring new cars at the garage, taking reports over the phone, etc.Ok then make them sit at the police station all day and not at home. If your house catches on fire do you want the firemen to come from all over the city or do you want them at the fire station ready to go in an instant?
What about the sexual assault, did that just vanish?
