We're the Only Ones Pointing Enough

An Omaha police officer has been fired for allegedly waving a gun at a man and his pregnant wife in traffic...

DeWitt denied involvement in the July 17 incident, but a police investigation determined that he had lied during his interview with internal affairs.

"The Only Ones" are capable of lying, too? Maybe they really are no better than everybody else...

UPDATE: As pointed out in comments, the link has been deactivated by the paper.

Here is another article on this topic from another source.

  1. The link's not working.

    isn't there a law about lying to police and/or the government? Are they above that one too?

  2. Absolutely, HH! Courts have repeatedly ruled that cops can lie to citizens with impunity, but citizens lying to cops are guilty of felonies.

  3. I used to live in Omaha. I can state without fear of truthful disagreement that Omaha,Ne. has the worst Police Dept. I have ever seen. And I have seen most of them. Including the two most violent in the nation, and the one most murderous.

    And Omaha PD is still the worst.

  4. BTW, just for info purposes, Carteer Lake is in Iowa. It is on the Omaha side of the river, with Omaha surrounding it on 3 sides the Missouri River on its east side. It is a tiny little pocket of Iowa left there when the river changed channels.

    Epley Airfield, Omaha, Ne. is best accessed through it, except from the extreme northside..

    No point to this,except to note that even though this idiot is an idiot he didn't let lack of jurisdiction stop him from coming to the aid of those kids. Too bad he couldn't maintain propiety.
