Before this thread goes nuclear...I will say one officer's actions doesn't define an ENTIRE police force city or nationwide.

So take a deep breath..

Agreed. So why does this happen? Are we in an era that has a deficit of good men??

Or is apathy a new found virtue?

One thing doesnt make sense to me. Why did it say the drugs were in his left pocket if they were trying to say it was in his wallet? They treated them as two seperate things on the police report. Makes me wonder if he saw it drop duringthesearch and just bagged both items together?

When the definition of “good men” is left to public opinion all there is are criminals in public’s eye.

And people wonder why NFL players sit down during the anthem!

You mean the National Felons league ? Maybe you can Google how many are felons who have done horrible crimes yet they walk after a fine/slap on the butt and continue to play..

A whole stack of smart chips would not make a dent into the stupidity of some of those idiots.. But hey they are special and make allot of money we should worship their abilities... BAHHHHH

Those idiots are tolerated because they promote the divide among people, the left right paradigm will never fail as long as these useful idiots keep the divide going strong. Sad state of affairs when the people are so polarised they cannot see the difference between right and wrong.

It isn't the Flag of this or any other countries but especially the US Gov's fault that rogue ass holes are born and live everywhere. Some become LEO's but some become Drug lords too. The thing to do when we catch these ass holes red handed is PROSECUTE them to the fullest as they will! Setting up stings is how you handle it folks. State Police should work the cities to weed out the bad ones and they will be held even more accountable than they are now.

We know . Just a few bad apples...


...in *every*freakin*bushel*

Something I have not seen brought up in so many similar cases like this over the years, is the issue of the police actually having baggies at the ready.
Imagine the pre-patrol cheeks; gun...check. Backup gun...check. Taser, pepper spray and baton....check, check and check. Drug baggies for planting on suspects...check!

Shouldn’t those officers also be jailed for possession with intent to supply?

a reply to: EternalShadow

You are correct.

However as we've seen before. The cops start to circle the wagons around the bad cop to protect them.

When they protect the one bad cop. You gotta wonder.

It makes no sense at all i think we just had a rookie cop who didnt know what to do exactly. And by the way nothing wrong with putting the drugs in the wallet as long as iits just folded over and not stuck inside it. As long as the police report doesnt say thats were they found it. I figure if the cops were going to frame him they would have put it in the car next to the gun he wasnt supposed to have.Im agreeing with the judge the lawyers interpretation just doesnt seem right.

apparently no one was or is watching the video, the coke is on the ground just like his wallet phone and some other piece of paper before the cop picks up the wallet and puts the coke in the wallet. if you watch the cop searching the guy notice the cop keeps looking down at it.





and what the lawyer is calling the square is the snaps on his belt. and the one in his hand is the snap on the radio pouch when he puts his radio up.
plus when they say bragging he doesn't sound like bragging to me, sounds like he's informing his supervisors that therre is coke in the wallet.

here is lee at the court house with what looks like white squares, on noes he gonna plant drugs on the reporter.



here is lee and you can see the white looking snap on the radio just to show where the radio pouch is,



if you watch the video, you see the cop with the funky name talking on the radio then put it up and is looking down at it, i say he's holding the strap with his left hand and putting the radio in with his right. you can see him change hands at the 1:55 mark. looks down and you can see his left hand pull back the strap while his right hand goes down to the pouch. you can watch before the shyster's claim at the 1:55 mark. play at .25 speed and watch his hands .

screen shots from that mark.
talking on the radio,

putting it in his pouch.



just a hit piece by the reporter and a shyster lying his ass off

Its not just the NFL many sports have a problem look at the UCLA players in China. They steal from apparently 3 stores while on camera! Not bright at all shame they lose their education and future in professional sports. And will end up spending between 3 to 10 years in prison. I suspect will hear how unfair it is from the press. But its not chinas fault hey took stuff.

Yeah i agree this is just a lawyer trying to geta bad guy off. The cop wasnt planting anything they just emptied hs pockets. Sad how people want to make out every cop to be evil. Sadly we keep doing that and no one will want to become a police officer. Thats when we will have a real problem and vigilantes will take over. Wont that be so much better as armed citizens take to the streets to stop crime. Hey billy did you just see that guy j walk? Well lets get um!!! Jimmy hes running his running. Getthe shot gun! Got it jimmy. Well shoot him dammit.

i know what you mean, i have no love loss for cops. but i don't think everyone of them is out to lock up minorities, or black people. many cops are straight up dickheads, but that doesn't mean that they plant sh@@ all the time or even at all.

this is just a a@@hole reporter and a shyter trying to make something out of nothing.

One officer's actions don't define a police force...agreed. But the actions of those fellow officers in covering up for that officer certainly do define a system that needs to change sir.

I also agree that most cops are most likely good people doing a hard job.
The part that angers me is, 99% of the time, even when it's captured on video of a cop doing wrong, they get off completely free. Maybe a 2 week paid suspension at most.

Be it shooting a man running away in the back after being caught on dashcam stating he was going to "KIll me a N**ger" or caught on video planting drugs.

They will use the excuses of "feared for my life" or "We found the drugs previous but failed to get in on camera. We have just recreated the find for documentation".

To trust our police force they need to be held to the same standards as the people. The good cops on the force need to stand up and demand the department/legal system do the right thing! The "good ol boys club" mindset must end. They are here to serve and protect. Often I feel this is not what the system is doing for our people.

He wasnt planting drugs and in fact did nothing illegal. If he had stated he found the drugs in the wallet that woukd be illegal. But thats not what the police report said. Which means him putting in the wallet means nothing other then it goes in to the same evidence bag. This looks bad but he didnt do anything because you have to look at the police report and it looks like it happened just like he said it did

Once the police did it too you then you would be singing a different tune.

It's actually happened to me 4 separate times, so I moved to a new city, and in this new city the cops are proper awesome.

Despite that -- no, I still wonder why NFL players want to kneel during the anthem. A.) It's not putting a stop to the issue, B.) it's not racist as I'm white and had it happen to me, and C.) It has absolutely NOTHING to do with the national anthem. D.) They are protesting while getting paid.

There are 10% good men, 10% bad men..the rest are apathetic filler.
