Don't make that racial. That big lug had been standing there even before the Cop arrived.
That is one of the things that have baffled many people. The socalled big lug was allowed to assist in the arrest of the black girl. Very odd.
And Casebolt's lawyer really exposed the fact that her client was not fit to be a cop. Part of being a police officer is not making it personal. Furthermore, he was supposed to be the lead officer on the scene. Go Figure.
She clearly has the power to discriminate against black families who are interested in qualifying for home mortgages; therefore, I do not believe she should be allowed to keep her position at BOA.
Also, I do not believe it's fair to suggest, no one was seriously injured. Do you really believe that the black teen girl who was physically assaulted by a grown man, along with the black teen boys who were racially profiled and almost shot by the police are not emotionally traumatized and scarred for life?
Again, social media is determining what you believe. She does not work for Bank of America. That was posted on Facebook. This week BOA made a public statement saying this woman is not one of its employees. But of course now you've got her working in the home mortgage department of a bank discriminating against minorities. Oy vey!

It's not just that poster saying it. That's what the social media mob are saying.
They are demanding that BofA review every single loan this woman denied for racial discrimination.
They say she's a racist and probably denied all home loans to Black applicants.
Lincoln Turner, who is white, attended Sunday’s news conference at the police station to show support for the teenagers at the pool party. He and his children frequently use the pools at Craig Ranch, though they don’t live in the subdivision. He said he doesn’t want this incident to be what people remember about McKinney.
“Everyone should come to McKinney and have fun in our pools. That’s the message that we want to send to the world,” Turner said. “Not that they’re going to get harassed and patrolled and beaten down. Not get a gun drawn on them. That’s ridiculous.”

Dallas criminal defense lawyer Peter Schulte, who was not involved in the incident, said that after viewing the video he was most bothered by the actions Casebolt took in his role as a supervisor.
“This is a classic example of how something can escalate out of control very quickly by the actions of the officers, not by what was going on,” said Schulte, a former McKinney officer.
Schulte said that almost every time he pulled up to a party as an officer, people scattered. He said it is difficult to control a situation by making everybody get on the ground instead of calmly asking people to stand still.
how is an authority figure supposed to maintain control and order when no one respects or listens to him/her?
Ask any cop you know about going to a scene where a crap load of teens are laughing and mouthing off and not respecting the badge...these aren't kids...these are young adults that could cause serious injury or death...
what is a cop supposed to do when some 14 year old is mouthing off, not listening, and BY her actions inciting others to be JUST AS defiant...those cops had NO control over that situation, it was out of hand...
The cop should have ignored it. Mouthing off and not listening are not crimes and neither is treating a cop with a lack of deference or respect. The only person in the video that committed a crime was the cop.
That is one of the things that have baffled many people. The socalled big lug was allowed to assist in the arrest of the black girl. Very odd.
When did that happen? I was wondering what he was doing there, but he was not helping the police. I didn't see him touch anyone or assist the cops. He wasn't running away or mouthing off, which is why he wasn't told to "stay put" or "shut up." Saying he was assisting them is absurd and untrue.

Yes, he was the officer in charge because of his rank. However, his attorney NEVER said he wasn't fit to be a police officer. He had just been to a home where the father shot himself in the head in front of his entire family, including children. He had to make a report, take photos and then spent a long time comforting the wife. She's a Black woman. I'm not sure if the next call, an attempted suicide, in which he saved someone from taking his or her own life involved a Black person, but why should it matter? She was talking about taking his job very personal. I heard what she said. Don't twist her words. The reason he didn't make a personal apology on camera is because of all the death threats to him and his family.
I normally wouldn't mention the race and edited an earlier post because I don't need to prove I'm not a racist to anyone. My attorney is Black, but I can't remember ever mentioning her skin color to my family when I made out my will. A bank manager at Wells Fargo gave me her card and said she highly recommended her services. She never said to me, "By the way, she's an African-American lawyer. Hope that's okay." I walked into her office and saw a Black woman. So what? However, these days every single story I hear where Whites and a Blacks are involved has to be about skin color. If I go to the store I don't come home and say "a Black cashier in Walmart said..." but eventually that's how it will be.
