THAT SHIT WOULD HAVE NEVER EVER HAPPENED IN A UPPER CLASS OR MIDDLE CLASS NIEGHBORHOOD. I just pray the man running committed some horrific offense. It still amazes me that the only time there is a disregard for human life is in poor areas. I can't even describe the anger and contempt I have for this piece of work cop, I mean aren't they trained to run down perps? And you wonder why people in low-income situations hate cops.
wow this is absolutely horrible, he chased him through a housing complex by a park,where children play thats completely ridiculous,people could of been hurt or killed,i would of definately complained,regardless if he was running the officer was putting others peoples lives at risk,by driving through peoples front yards,so if it was turned around and the driving through your yard you wouldnt throw a hissy fit?
It's not the SCHP as a whole's fought just this one officer and he is a real nutcase because I saw all the bystanders who could have gotten hurt he was flying around a playground. I've never seen an officer do something so nutty normally it's suppose to turn into a foot pursuit at that point.
Wow this video is horrible! Did anyone notice the father and his child that had to jump out of the way of the squad car because he was so hell bent on chasing him down and essintially trying to run him over... God help us!
The SC highway patrol has always been like this as long as I can remember. It's like the wild wild west, best thing they can do is open up to the public with an apology campaign on TV.
There ARE good SCHP troopers.However,the SCHP has the lowest training of SC, GA, and NC.Incidents like this happen frequently(look at the menu bar on the right)in the SCHP and recently the top brass had to resign.There is no excuse at all for this.The trooper was showing a disregard for public safety and should be charged and do time for this.The SCHP should be disbanded and all personel reviewed for inclusion in a new State Police. The new State Police should be more diverse as well.
Well you go right ahead and support these very absolute disregards HUMAN life. It shouldn't matter how much money you make each person in this country has the right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness. What happens if that cop hits and kills that five year-old boy I know he didn't but the question I want to be addressed is what if he did? For those out there who have lost loved ones prematurely to violence you know what that question means. I can not and will not support such actions.
There are a lot of good troopers in South Carolina. But just like any organization, theres going to be some people who just arent the right one for the job. I know as well as anyone else that it is hard to keep from making certain things personal, like when an officer becomes enraged with the suspect. But in the end, it has to be clear who the good guy is, and its time to stop making criminals look like victims and act like a professional and respectable law enforcement division.
Oh I agree, we should be asking when we watch this "who is the good guy?". We dont know if the fleeing suspect is guilty or not. That's what a court is for, and any good honest lawman cant argue that. Thanks to the trooper, we have to ask "is HE a good guy?". for an agency so wrapped up in the mystique of being "the elite", their behaviour is certainly not beyond reproach
What a disgrace! Every time we turn around the SC highway patrol go and do something stupid to make the entire state look bad. I know many SCHP personel personally and find them arrogant, bigoted, and generally unprofessional. They DO NOT answer general (real) police calls. These guys have done nothing but bring shame to our state and soak up millions of tax dollars. They ride around with their families in PATROL cars while not ON patrol. Shame on us Sandlappers! Disband the SCHP rightnow!
If you wish to discuss law and proper law enforcement (legal) procedures, I will discuss this with you. If you continue to attack people personally, I will delete your reply and block you from replying. I will not allow personal attacks on anyone. If you want to know something ask.
You may have heard this before: If you cannot attack the evidence attack the person. That appears to be what you are doing.
No he is in control. He is arresting a fleeing criminal and keeping us safer by arresting him. Why was he running like a rabbit if he had nothing to hide??? Have you ever had to chase criminals? Try it sometime and you won't make it 20 minutes.
The use of a vehicle, as a weapon, is considered deadly force. Was deadly forced justified in this arrest? If you struck a police officer with your vehicle, with intent, you would be considered using deadly force and deadly force would be used against you. If you are a police officer you know this
I would have no reason to chase a police officer with a vehicle. He would not take off running if he saw me. He wouldn't be stealing cars and running wild through an apartment complex like a wild rabbit. HELLO!!!! These men have a job to do and I personally feel a lot safer at night knowing they are out there doing it. Every time I have ever called SCHP they have showed up immediately and been helpful and polite. Maybe you have to be a car thief to understand this alleged racism.
what about the innocent people at the playground he put in danger or the people (guy and his kid)running under the stairs cause a car is coming down their sidewalk? maybe you wouldn't feel as safe if they were driving through your backyard
Do you know what DEADLY FORCE is? If not I suggest you ask one of your highway patrol friends or read a law/criminal justice book. Do you believe deadly force was necessary because this person was fleeing. Why didn't the HP get out of patrol car and chase him on foot? What if he would have killed this man with his vehicle, someone else or paralyzed him? These tactics are not taught at the South Carolina Criminal Justice Academy.
You seem to love the state of South Carolina, why would you support a HP like this. You are setting a bad example for all the HP who do their job properly and not run people down with their vehicle. This patrolman needs to be terminated before he kills/injury's someone (unlawfully) and a lawsuit is brought against the state of South Carolina.
You say every time you call the HP they come? You must have a lot of 10-50's (vehicle accidents). Highway patrol do not handle local calls in South Carolina. That is what your local police dept/sheriff deputies do.
And no one but you has said anything about this being racial.
the only person you may be trying to convince that you are not a closet bigot to is yourself, everyone else clearly sees what kinda person you are. "to serve and protect" is the oath every officer makes. driving your squad car recklessly through an apartment complex, blindly cutting corners fails that oath in my book. i bet if the cop accidentally ran over a little girl, your only concern would be making sure the little girl had nappy hair and dark skin.
I am not a bigot. You don't know me or anything about me. I call SCHP to help people no matter what the color of their skin. You obviously know nothing about police work! You sit in your chair and you are an armchair quarterback on Monday after the game. Why don't you go out there and work 12 hours and put up with the bullshit these men have to. oh, and also if you ever get carjacked or have your vehicle stolen DON'T CALL SCHP! Call someone else since you hate SCHP so much!
You stated to twizaa: "You obviously know nothing about police work! You sit in your chair and you are an armchair quarterback on Monday after the game."
Question: Doesn't your statement apply to you also?
(You have written/posted your husband and friends were/are in law enforcement.)
Hypothetical Question: If they were in the medical field, would you then know all there is about the medical field and post/talk like this to people who complained against bad medical practice?
man this trooper is a bright one!!!!

To help a cat out of a tree then turn around and run someone over in the courtyard of an apartment complex doesn't make you a hero. F the police.
