That's Chloe looks like she won't be around for a while.

Anyone recognize any of the others
Middle row all the way to the right is familiar but I don't think we can post names here correct.

Instant karma going to get you!
Recognize her boys? Some people get their comeuppance. Got a feeling someone entered her data, possibly anonymously. I hope she likes her new found notoriety.

Surprised
The only thing I found surprising about this story is that it didn't occur in the Crapital District. Or-how many times have things like it occurred here and didn't get publicized?

I understood exactly what you meant when you said it. And I agree. I wouldn't fault a cop for doing his job and arresting me if I'm careless enough to be caught doing something wrong. A cop breaking the laws he is sworn to uphold should be held to the same standard of prosecution as the rest of us. While he is not by any means a scumbag like a pimp, he's no hero either.

Original Report said he was a sniper

Which might explain his quick reaction. Hope this isn't terminal to his career.

If he gets charged with anything significant, could stay prominent placement. If he takes plea and fed a fine for patronizing, and suspended for a month, it will be buried or not reported on at all IMO.

I'm offering a point of view-no more no less. Armchair quarterbacking, like everyone else who doesn't possess any inside information.
I do know that APD, TPD, CPD, SPD all have a long history of misconduct. As do some Crapital District elected officials.
My point was-we don't know yet what the charges are. And until we actually hear those charges announced-that is if he even faces any charges- anything before that is speculation.
I wouldn't be surprised to see the whole matter swept under the rug!

Honestly, I haven't been following all that closely since the initial report. I thought he was single? I know there are many other considerations but from what I had heard he was single and an Iraqi War vet. He shot a pimp but that does not mean he is a hero (as others claim on this board). I have zero doubt he would have busted any of us mongers given a chance so a bit of hypocrisy with accolades.

Taylor Law.

It has nothing to do with public relations. It's pretty clear this was self defense, he won't be charged with any sort of manslaughter. Misdemeanors and violations won't cut it from an off duty incident out of jurisdiction.
Even Officer Spratt wasn't terminated. He fucked multiple high school girls in his position as the resource officer at Watervliet High School. He even got what was in his pension.
