We're the Only Ones Shocking Enough

Janice Wells called the Richland Police Department when she feared a prowler was outside her clapboard house in the rural west Georgia town.

The third-grade teacher had phoned for help. But within minutes of an officer coming to her backdoor, she was screaming in pain and begging not to be shocked again with a Taser. With each scream and cry, the officer threatened her with more shocks. [More]
That'll teach her!

"I explained that state law mandates that we investigate to determine if there has been any family violence.”

And if there was no family violence, your suppose to start some?

Plus it seems one of them just switched departments for "punishment". ReVOLTing.

I do pray that both these men meet an unpleasant and unsolved end.

Nothing is worse then a bully punk with a badge.

These two cops should have investigated a bit more before they went all pepper spray/taser happy on the woman.

How they can live with themselves is beyond my comprehension.

Did I miss something here? Two cops essentially torture a woman who had called them for assistance and the worst they can expect is to be fired???

No, the worst they can expect is to resign and get hired on with another department, as at least one of those badged criminals has already done.

If there was any justice there would be Tar, Feathers and a Rail. It'll never happen as our masters couldn't let the uppity peasants take the law into their own hands.

Tell you what. Heard on the afternoon news there was a standoff in the area. Now I ALWAYS wonder whether it's one of our people being Ruby Ridged. And whether I should go have a look-see.
The story put out by the authorities was, it's a rape suspect wanted by the federal marshals. They can say similar things about anyone they take down.

Well, as long as we don't DO ANYTHING, it'll all blow over and be ok. Until next time.
