Thanks for your honesty on this. No one should be subject to garbage like that. The officers in that unit deserved better.

I trust my local Katy PD, mostly because outside of the occasional stabbing/shooting/robbery from wannabe inner city thugs, almost every major crime is domestic here. They have treated the citizens of Katy with respect and the same has happened to the police department, although their was a recent case in the mall and Sandra Bland. I hope the PD doesn't have quotas for anything but traffic tickets.

I saw this. Not surprised at all.

Obviously this happens and has been occurring since, well, forever. Deal with people on the bottom rung of society long enough and you know who the POS are. So why not take things into your own hands and make your job little easier right?

The only thing that can stop terrible practices like this and innocent people getting blown away from simply calling 911 is a serious clamp down on officers that do this, federal review for major errors and crimes and simply removing the ability for police to police themselves while forcing the use of recording.

In addition to that, better hiring practices, more money to attract some better candidates and pay them well. I know, wish in one hand and **** in the other and see which one fills up first.

Most police are good people, doing a tough job. I get that.

That said, if you can't get rid of your own bad apples and keep your house clean while you want to be elevated to a status that mostly places you above the law while being trust to run your own internal review of events then there lies a huge problem. No excuse for this type of behavior.

Cops that plant evidence should get the death penalty with no exceptions. And not just the cop that did it, but as in this video the scumbag cops that stood there and watched it happen and did nothing.

All cases and convictions based on those three's testimony should be overturned and thrown out. Lawyers are lining up as we speak to re-open cases. Bad dudes will be back on the street.

He should be fired for being so stupid, then prosecuted for his crime.

People who abuse their power are the lowest form of humanity.

For something like this there should be mandatory double sentence of whatever the maximum the person they tried to frame would receive. If this "drug bust" could of resulted in a 10 year sentence he should go to jail for 20. If there is conviction of someone that is framed it should be triple. Same thing for prosecutorial misconduct.

I stand with you on that.

Framing someone to take their liberties, is a personal war at that point.

They would not want to do that to me. Because I have the ability to find out where that cop lives and the means to reach out and touch them. If they don't get me some justice, I am capable of getting my own.

You take them out of the genepool and society does not have to worry about them oppressing anyone else, ever again.
