Wondering if the arresting officer was trying to hook up with the crazy lady.
This is Officer PrIck calling for back up… We have a dangerous individual in a wheel chair…could be armed and dangerous with said wheel chair… I repeat dangerous…😮
So zero evidence, in fact evidence of innocence and just an accusation is enough to charge
Did you see all that justice? Did you see all that help? Did you see those heroes' action?
These are horrible cops, u can clearly see he can't walk, nor kick a door open. I'd sue all of their behinds.
My uncles in a wheelchair since he was a young man and this ticks me off soo bad no wonder people don’t feel anything when cops don’t come home
We always hear there's only one bad apple. However time and time again it's proven there's no good apples
12:32 "this young lady"😂. Officer still choosing to remain 'dillusional' about his investigation.
When you think police could be stupider… they go and prove you wrong!!!
That was about one of the worst things I've ever seen the police do. I hope that guy can sue. I really do. I've never commented on anything, but that was terrible.
This is just ignorance in full display
What a Debacle. Sue the uniforms off these cops.
I can't think of enough adjectives to describe this incident, but absurd, ridiculous, disgusting, and unbelievable come immediately to mind.
t thought that i had seen what stupid is, but i was wrong. this is the stupidest i have ever seen. every time i see one of these situations, i hate law [using that loosely] enforcement a little more.
Holy Jesus, this entire police department is an absolute joke! How is this allowed? All of those people should be arrested charged and removed from society immediately!
This is honestly a story of low IQ. This cop clearly has an intellectual disability and has no business being a cop or really in any position of responsibility
Attention all paraplegics: From this date forward you must carry your "papers" at all times and show them to the police upon request to probe you are in fact paraplegic. If no "papers", you are going to jail. WTF!
This must be the laziest / dumbest cop in the world and his LT is also lazy and pathetic, both of these cops need to be fired, how many other people have they arrested for crimes they didn’t do because they couldn’t be bothered to their job properly, these are the dumbest / laziest cops and should be fired and sued personally for this.
This is absolutely bloody disgusting.
These guys are pathetic.
These cops are too dumb to be paid for this.
That skinhead cop is why people hate the police.
He better get paid
Whose the original agency? We are?
Whose the original detective? You are?
As f'd up as this situation is, that made me literally laugh out loud.
That cop os evil and full of hate
Thugservisor.
Believe all women.
Average build brown hair, so 70% of America. I think we have our guy.
Always shut up and call a lawyer. Everyone needs to have a criminal law office that they can call.
Where's the kicked in door?
"i don't want to interrupt your lunch" well that's all i need to hear to get a picture of mr. lieutenant
Inbred nepotism is destroying law enforcement STANDARDS of Low Standards 😂😅😊
I hope he sues bigly…
MY FOOD IS GETTING COLD , 😢
People will welcome police robots.
Cops don't become thugs.
Idiot thugs become cops.
When I was a senior in high school, my best friend suffered a spinal injury that left him a quadriplegic. Spending time with him as we started college, I got to know a fair number of people who had suffered spinal injuries, and learned how they coped with life.
That is an education that a lot more people apparently need, especially before they become cops.
That, or strip those blinders off the cops and wear out riding crops on their backsides. Just the title of this video makes me see red.
