Someone else originally posted this story a while back and I have been checking in from time to time. The defendant got off and the hearing for the cop has been postponed until 1 Dec. http://ohioccw.org/201107214955/cantonpd.html |

Should never have happened, but it sounds like things are getting fixed moving forward. |

That cop seems pretty unstable! I can't believe that they were handling that stop they way they have been trained. |

These cops do this knowing that they're being recorded? Wow and he calls the white guy picking up a hooker in the ghetto stupid. |

The thing that pisses me off is that the prosecutor took this thing to court KNOWING that the case had no merit and would be thrown out. They were hoping the defendant would be scared into plea bargaining to a lesser charge. Those cops should be fired and the DA fined on ethics charges. They should have to publicly apologize to the jurors for wasting their time and to the local citizens for being incompetent. After that, I think the defendant has a good civil case against these morons. |

"After that, I think the defendant has a good civil case against these morons." Absolutely. Almost nothing pisses me off more than abuse of power. |

On that forum too... They want to use this case to remove the requirement to notify from law enforcement stops. Which I tend to agree with. Additionally, I believe that this officer/s has been/will be fired as the Canton PD is currently hiring for two officers in the near future (March 2012) |

That cop needs some extenze; or something else is fundamentally wrong. He has no business walking around with a gun and a badge. PUBLIC SERVANT, not an armed bully. |
