We're the Only Ones Non-Negotiable Enough

Note the victim's name is somehow deemed appropriate public information to be released, but we never learn the name of "the detective." [More]

So much for our crusading government watchdogs. That's some "investigative journalism" there.

I wonder if his bosses would agree that identifying a detective this ignorant of the law who uses rudeness, intimidation and escalation of violence to kidnap a citizen and steal property is information the public paying for it all has a right to know.

Here it is, no thanks to NBC:  Detective David Margentino.

It seems how a "different detective" rolled his car is also worth learning more about, and whether the intimidation was related to the "single-car accident" involving one of their own. (Other sites are floating the talking point that seeing the visible license plate was private information that could have upset family members, which if you take that to its logical conclusion shuts down sharing all on-the-scene disaster photography without prior police vetting and approval). And Joseph D. Coronato shows why he deserves being "Prosecutor of the Year," what with saying the incident "could have been handled better by everyone involved."

Yeah, way to blame the victim for insisting on his rights being respected. What more needs to be said besides "New Jersey"?

Just in case anyone wants to pay their respects:
