We're the Only Ones with Several Reasons Enough

A Torrance police sergeant will not be charged in an off-duty hit-and-run collision, although he admitted he fled because his "judgment was impaired by alcohol," according to prosecutors.

Redondo Beach City Prosecutor Brenda Wells said Tuesday that she declined to file a criminal case against Sgt. Michael Mastick for several reasons. [More]
"Several reasons?"

Well, yeah. First off, he's an "Only One."

And then he's an "Only One."

And let's not forget that he's an "Only One."

And thank goodness! Do you know what kind of trouble you can get into for drunk driving, fleeing an accident and lying to an official police investigation?

That's why they needed to bring in the irreproachable Inglewood PD--to prevent any "appearance of a conflict of interest." Just so we all know he's getting the same treatment they'd afford you and me.

  2. Why was this decided by a city prosecutor, instead of the District Attorney (County level)? If anyone else had been so charged, the DA would have been all over it.

    City prosecutors in California typically handle zoning complaints, loud dog charges and parking tickets. Not serious offenses.

  3. They seem unaware of the only option they are leaving us. Let's hope they stay unaware until it's too late to escape.
