We're the Only Ones Sensitive Enough

Police are not releasing the officer's mugshot because he works in a sensitive role at Metro and cannot have his picture shown. [More]
Yeah, besides, people who are in control of themselves tend to get a bit sensitive when some drunk with a gun and a badge starts ordering them around.

Probably part of the multijurisdictional task force, assisting the DEA. Got to keep that stuff *off the streets*.

The article actually lists his name, David Denton, and alleges he'd crashed a "department car".

Drunk on duty?

Granted, the assumption of innocence must apply, though as David Codrea points out, the use of kid gloves with this guy as contrasted to how they imprison someone sleeping it off in a parked car is pretty appalling.
