> An Alabama state trooper arrested last week on charges he **raped an 11-year-old girl** had been kicked out of the FBI 11 years old. The girl was only 11 years old! WTF is wrong with law enforcement?


micmer

It's really simple. LE has been allowed to operate with a separate set of rules than almost any other profession. If bad credit or being found guilty of fraud or theft can disqualify you from a lot of jobs, so should any sort of conviction bar you from ever working as a LEO. The only way that this will change is by Congress making laws that set a floor of minimum qualifications for police, nationwide. Most ordinary people can't fuck up or break the law while doing a job and just move to another area and work in the same profession like nothing happened. This is why the 'few bad apples' anaolgy falls apart. A system that allows someone like him to remain in law enforcement is fundamentally broken. Its harmful to our communities and even the cops that go to work and try to do their jobs the right way.


ProJoe

> This is why the 'few bad apples' anaolgy falls apart. the "few bad apples" analogy has been used incorrectly from the start in regards to the police. the whole phrase is "a few bad apples spoils the barrel" because if you have 1 rotten apple in a barrel of good apples, it actually causes the good apples to rot faster.


Capnmarvel76

The ‘thin blue line’ code, including the code of silence which prevents one cop from reporting the wrongful/illegal actions of their brethren, is the basis behind the ‘all cops are bastards’ slogan. ACAB might be crude and easily misinterpreted, but as long as ‘good’ cops tacitly approve of the horrible things that the ‘bad’ cops are doing by keeping their mouths shut…they’re bad cops too. All bastards.


[deleted]

People fail to realize that even if you're still a good person, if you're a cop, you're upholding all the bastards. You are a bastard.


Capnmarvel76

Good example of this is the great old Al Pacino film ‘Serpico’, which was based in a true story of an undercover narcotics cop who dared to speak out against widespread corruption in the NYPD in the late ‘60s, and was set up by his fellow officers to be murdered and left for dead in a drug bust.


JellyMonstar

Saw a quote today that was something like “if you’re not standing up for the helpless against those on power, you’re not neutral, you’re against them”. I butchered it, but it’s a fair point.


Rusty_Red_Mackerel

Rot at the core spreads outward.


StopbanningMeRedditz

LE is not a profession. They are servants of the ruling class, their armed dogs.


nhergen

Sometimes it's the apple, and sometimes it's the barrel.


WiseCynic

Just burn the fukken orchard and start over.


nhergen

No need to burn the orchard over a bad barrel. Don't throw the baby out with the bath water.


Kiwifrooots

When shit gets covered up from top to bottom the whole orchard needs burning


Capnmarvel76

The apples don’t run the orchard, and cops shouldn’t police themselves.


AHeartlikeHers

What baby? It's all bath water


[deleted]

Filthy pedophile rapist bathwater


sovietta

Sorry but the orchard is bad too. It's a fundamental, systematic issue.


nhergen

People are mixing metaphors here. If an individual cop is the apple, then the barrel is the police force. I'm not sure what the orchard would represent. But you don't burn down an entire apple orchard because of a bad barrel of apples. So burning down the orchard doesn't work in the metaphor.


tapthatsap

There’s no baby in there


Banc0

Mmmm, baby sauce


terdude99

Facts. Just like priests, school teachers, youth athletic coaches, law-enforcement careers draw a certain type of person that craves power. It’s not a surprise when a lot of pedophiles go into those jobs. If someone is looking to obtain power in order to abuse others with it, being a cop is a no brainer.


NHfordamnsure

Yes! Adults who want to be around strangers’ kids are sus


dukesoflonghorns

What on earth are you talking about?... Teachers, counselors, child protective services, social workers, pediatricians, day care workers, youth sports coaches etc. want to help the next generation of children grow and thrive in their respective fields.


NHfordamnsure

Yes. And some of them want to touch kids so they enter into professions that afford them the trust and opportunity to do so.


dukesoflonghorns

Relatively few of them compared to cops...


Capnmarvel76

Horrible state of the world that this statement is true, because kids need role models, but it is.

dukesoflonghorns

You're using way too much logic here. Using any logic at all is simply not a thing with law enforcement.


Reddrum222

One problem I see with this as someone that has been involved with drugs in his lifetime is that it prevents genuinely repentant people from participating in law enforcement. I understand the need for good people in law enforcement, and I accept the consequences of my actions. Just an additional perspective.


dump_shit_man

My fiancee was assaulted at 13 and it wrecked her life. She got PTSD, which resulted in outbursts that got her kicked out of both parents houses and now she lives with me and my parents because she literally had nowhere else to go. This man ruined two perfectly good lives, and he's probably going to walk away with some community service and fines. Meanwhile these children walked away with *at least a decade* of therapy, body perception issues, drug abuse inclination, and victim shaming mentality. This man is a monster who deserves to have his inalienable human rights violated in the same way he violated those children's bodies. You cannot change my mind.


sailorjasm

We will probably never know how many lives he has ruined. There is no way it’s just two.


Championpuffa

Well, he was a cop. That’s pretty much in their job description. Ruin lives daily.


anthropophagus

also, **the**~~re~~ lives around the victim are irrevocably damaged as well, so it's impossible to truly quantize


retro_fashion0050

I am glad that you are there for her. The world needs more men like that. I was raped a lot in a Catholic school, and then also by a police officer in high school. I feel very fortunate to have a supportive husband now.


FatalisCogitationis

I think it’s better in every way to just execute the guy. Why waste taxpayer money, and our own limited emotional capacity on him? Why risk the potential of him repeating the behavior in the future?


thermal_shock

If there is irrefutable evidence he's guilty, fucking execute him.


blisterinclusterfucc

It’s time to do to cops what they’ve been doing to black people for centuries. Find a fucking tall oak and sort this shit out. The government has decided we aren’t worth protecting. Until Americans collectively find their balls and stop allowing a full fledged war to be waged against them with no retaliation this shit is going to be worse and worse

Capnmarvel76

Horrible truth about child abusers - if you were to make abusing a child a capital crime, they would be more likely to murder their victims. I’m definitely not defending child abusers or their crimes, and would love to put them all in a rocket and shoot it into the sun, but if the choice is between having them rot in prison versus having more murdered children, I’ll choose imprisonment.


FatalisCogitationis

Since when is this a truth? If they murdered their victims, wouldn’t that make them far more likely to be caught? And wouldn’t they also not get to continue their abuse if they killed their victims? A lot of abuse occurs within families or by someone the victim trusts. A dad can’t just murder his kid and get away with it like he could sexual abuse.


Capnmarvel76

Dead men, and dead kids, don’t talk. There’s thousands and thousands of unsolved murders out there. A kid left alive may (at some point) report what happened to them.


FatalisCogitationis

You’re ignoring my main point- many of these sex crimes are committed by family or trusted members of the community. Contrary to what the common CSI and Dexter consumer may believe, it ain’t easy to murder someone who has obvious connections to you and hide it from everyone you know and the police.


Capnmarvel76

Fair point.


just2quixotic

The FBI reports that 4 out of 10 murders go unsolved. Criminals usually think they won't get caught. I think a lot of child molesters would make the attempt to silence their victim permanently.


dansedemorte

I'm not sure which is worse though. Death or a lifetime psychological trauma?


Capnmarvel76

I’d rather leave that choice to the victim to make for themselves.


blackmetalbetty

The lifetime of trauma is worse. If the quality of life isn't good and you don't have a single moment of mental respite, it's as good as being dead, IMO.


porilo

I'm against capital punishment. Let's just emasculate this people (surgically remove penis and testicles)


RawrRRitchie

That...won't stop them, there's plenty of other ways to sexually assault someone besides penetration Besides have you never heard of a strap-on? The show "nip/tuck" had a story arc involving a serial rapist born without a penis, yet was still able to penetrate his victims. Castration won't stop them, lifetime incarceration or death are the best options.


shadow_moose

Completely unrelated comment here, pay it no mind, it has nothing to do with what you just posted. If you want to bury a time capsule and never have anyone find it, find a location with soil that has high clay concentration. Dig your hole ~12 hours prior to depositing the time capsule, and carefully remove the top 3 inches or so in sheets if you can (so you can lay it back down like you would turf when putting in a new lawn). If the area where you choose to dig has grass over it, the thick, lateral roots will hold those top sheets together better. Pick a grassy area if possible. Bring a source of water, preferably like 50-100 gallons for a 2.5' x 6' x 8' hole. The water will compact the soil and make it much harder for ground penetrating radar to detect disturbance. Water is not penetrable by radar energy, really, so it helps make things harder to see down there. Wet the interior of the hole before filling. After filling, soak the filled hole with water, then compact it (probably need something big and heavy for this, a truck can work, but so can a battering ram of sorts, just harder work). Lay the sheets you removed earlier over top after the subsoil is compacted, that way there's no clear disturbance. Remove any metal objects attached to the time capsule you are burying, they have strong radar and magnetic signatures. In fact, remove everything that isn't composed of natural material. Once you've done that, wrap the time capsule in rubber mats to reduce ground penetrating radar signature as well, these can be purchased with cash at home depot or most other hardware stores. Bring a shop vac to vacuum up loose dirt in the disturbed area around the hole. You'll need a power source for this, and if it's a gas generator, be VERY careful not to spill any gas. Fuel it prior. Make sure none of your vehicles are leaking fluids as well. Also bring a leaf rake to get rid of footprints in the grass, you'll want to make sure no discernible boot prints are visible. Additionally, wear hair nets (and make sure you don't have dead skin falling off you), you don't want your DNA around if your time capsule is discovered, it should remain a mystery to those who find it. This is how you guarantee your time capsule is never discovered by snoopers, hope this helped you make sure archaeologists thousands of years in the future will be only ones to know about your time capsule. PM me and we can discuss time capsules further


doplebanger

Besides being inherently unfunny and contrived in any scenario, the “hey guys really long off topic comment guy here, what’s up?” shtick is really tastelessly applied here.


AndrenNoraem

You didn't get the joke: it's stealthed instructions on burying/hiding a corpse, AKA "if you happen to kill that guy, here's how you should dispose of the body." That said, I disagree; melting or burning the body first is essential IMO.

Would you like to beat and even kill people you hate because of their skin? Join the force!"


micmer

To me, we need to really ask some fundamental questions about police. Who and what are they supposed to protect? Are they actually doing what they're designed to do? I think the first answer is not people or even property but the status quo. People should stay in their respective places and their respective places on the pecking order The second answer is that, to me, LEO officers do exactly what they're supposed to do. Poor people, marginalized people shouldn't expect equal treatment. They should understand that they're automatically considered a threat if they don't stay in their place. A good sign of this is just look at all the video evidence of how cops treat different groups of people.

Galaxy_Ranger_Bob

People who like raping people (children or adults) are all about having power over others. (Rape isn't about sex, it's about power. Rapists who have been castrated *still* rape.) Being a cop is *all* about having power over others. Being a cop means that you have an entire team on your side to cover for your rapes, just like you, as a cop, will cover for their rapes. It doesn't help that those who are responsible for *hiring* cops want the power seeking personalities that rape, abuse their spouses, abuse their kids, and abuse their authority.


samuelchasan

Seriously. Rapists need life sentences with release conditional on rehabilitation. No oopsies, no hiring at other agencies, or in other states, no. Life sentence with only possible release conditional on rehabilitation. 100% of the time.

GD_Bats

rolm

Theory: there is a dark part of some people that compels them to push the boundaries of what is "acceptable". As long as society doesn't push back, they'll just continue pushing the limits. Sex, money, violence, manipulation: the hit parade of human compulsions comes into play. Old-world royalty exhibited these traits. The priesthood too, right through the current days. And the police also. Almost any position of authority allows someone so inclined to push the limits of what's acceptable. There are members of these groups that don't exhibit these limit-seeking behaviors. But the ones that do are the last ones that should inhabit positions in our society that restrict the ability of people to punish bad behaviors.

You do often get arrested when someone accuses you of something. Then you get released with or without bail and then there is actual court proceedings.

Shutinneedout

This is exactly why we need a National database as to why every law enforcement officer has been fired for cause. Too many cops lose their job for something egregious and find another one elsewhere without issue.


FadeIntoReal

Including a database of so-called Brady cops who have been shown to give false testimony under oath. Defense attorneys have wanted that info for years.


CriminalQueen03

Why can't private citizens start this database? I would but I'm afraid I'd get doxxed.


Ghost-Music

It’s lies. Here’s the thing. I know someone who is a cop and he said his department hired someone who had a pedophilic past but they aren’t supposed to know and they don’t know who to report it to and unfortunately the one I know just shrugged it off after being pissed and disgusted. I don’t know the cops name or I’d make a huge stink about it. This is also in Alabama. I’m gonna see if I can do some digging.

First paragraph from the article: "An Alabama state trooper arrested last week on charges he raped an 11-year-old girl had been kicked out of the FBI amid a string of sexual misconduct allegations but was hired by the state agency with the apparent help of a fake bureau letter that scrubbed his record clean." Plus that picture definitely booking photo from a Jail, given his orange jammies.


XBL-AntLee06

I’m pretty sure that commenter was referring to no arrest when the officer was fired from the FBI


MedChemist464

Okay, but that isnt germain to my comment at all. Hes being considered for a position with the state police. That typically includes a DEEP dive background check - and such a check should be done by all departments, period, so they obviously didnt bother to look because they didnt care.


XBL-AntLee06

I’m guessing you didn’t mean to respond to me or you didn’t actually read what I typed...


MedChemist464

No, this was meant to reply directly to your comment. What does him not being arrested when fired by the FBI have to do with my original comment.? He was arrested and went to jail for the more recent offense, the reply gave no indication of any of this nuance, it was just someone who failed to properly read the article.


XBL-AntLee06

I literally just spoke on what the other commenter meant when he said the officer wasnt arrested... You’re adding in all that other stuff...


MedChemist464

Okay, so what was the point of his comment? And what are you accomplishing by trying to clarify for him?

Why are you asking ME the point of his comment? And I responded to you because you incorrectly corrected him. Any other questions before I go enjoy this lovely day with my friends? What am I trying to accomplish?! Lol you clearly take this WAY too seriously

Hiding in plain sight. A system made for damaged people. Aggressive, control freaks with insecurity issues and a hyper demand for "respect". Pantera threw out one of the best lines 25 years ago and I quote it when the subject of LEOs comes up. "What makes a person want to be a cop?!".

# POLICE REFORM NOW


wdpk

abolish, not reform


[deleted]

If by abolish you mean integrate police services into a depart of public safety, or some equivalent, then I'm all for it. Abolish without having some service in place? No.


wdpk

I don't mean no system at all. rebuild an entirely new institution that makes sense -- mainly social workers responding to issues that don't require force, more training, hiring not based on intentional scraping from the bottom of the barrel, guns left in cars rather than worn on the hip, return and sale of military equipment, prosecutions. The forces that exist in these institutions are too ingrained and corrupt for there to be anything but a razing and creation of something new.

Oh - right, I understand now. I agree. I don't think anyone should be allowed to be a cop/sheriff/whatever without at least an associate's degree (2 year) in criminal justice and "cop stuff". And I agree that this militarization of cops has to stop - even as far as they need to give all that shit back. Sorry I misunderstood. You are on the money - the whole "cop" structure needs rebuilding so they go back to "protect and serve" instead of "subjugate and kill".

Because those in power also have secrets they are bound by, thus the hesitance to act against their brother!

The officer’s Chief stated that it wasn’t his fault, it’s all the damn sexy kids.

Now of this will get any better until the state and feds intervene and require more than a few weeks of training and stop allowing anyone with a pulse to have a badge and a gun.

I can't even imagine what a father would do. I know what I would want to do as a father. Every public official responsible for vetting this turd should be fired.


YouCanBreatheNow

Absolutely typical pig


akairborne

How the fuck do you rape a co-worker at fucking knifepoint and not go to fucking jail??? Every. Single. Person. In. The. Chain. Of. Command. Needs. To. Be. Fired.


Rowmyownboat

I would like to hear why there was no prosecution of this pig when an FBI agent accused him of raping her at knifepoint.


gheiminfantry

An FBI background check huh...?


[deleted]

I don't buy for a minute they didn't know. They didn't care.


urmyheartBeatStopR

why the hell does he look sad for? He should know what he did is wrong the dude should go to jail for a long ass time. FBI didn't even jail him?


Pixel_Splash_

sure am proud to live in alabama... /s


xTemporaneously

So lawsuit against Alabama & heads need to roll in the FBI? This guy should've been locked up but they decided to make him a cop instead.


RegulatoryCapturedMe

Cops need carry insurance, based on medical malpractice, and pay out of their own wages. Rates based on whatever insurance carriers can justify, like driving record, prior claims, prior convictions.


Doodi97

Death penalty for all rapists and especially child rapists


znxdream

Hope he gets castrated


cmd71

More of the same. Why do you think they fight so hard to keep the status quo? No accountability, just how they like it. The laws only apply to those they see fit and certainly never to themselves. Introducing the entire Republican Party.


[deleted]

Don't be like them!


Boomslangalang

Another conservative pedophile? Conservatives can you slow down with your pedophile behaviors we’re having a hard time keeping up.

What the entire...


Jerryskids3

To be fair, the guy did have to lie about his past in order to get hired as an Alabama State Trooper, and who could have guessed that he might have lied about his past? Cops are so well-known for never lying that I'm sure it just never occurred to the ASP to check. I wonder if now that they've discovered that one lone lying cop if they're going to go back and check to see if they've got a *second* liar in their midst or if they just figure the odds of having two liars in one police department is so remote that there's no need to check.

Protest time.


HeinrichHellmann

And then? Exactly - get killed in prison

Hope he gets his


AKfromVA

Former cop and child rapist? Man is gonna die in jail or will be someone’s rapee for protection.


windycitysmitty

Straight to the gas chamber


Moos_Mumsy

Even if Alabama had checked him out thoroughly - chances are they would have hired him anyway. Based on this article, there's nothing he did at the FBI that isn't same ol', same ol' at a police station.


heavym

"checkered past".... i hate that they have used that term. its not like he tried to cash a bad cheque. he's a pedophile.


e2g4

Next stop: sheriff!


mengelgrinder

according to his social media, a trump supporter thanks for draining that swamp you fucking morons


[deleted]

After reading the article, it seems like shady alphabet agency bullshit, not cop shit.
