This cop takes down elderly man that just had two knee replacements and costs the city a huge settlement.
The incident began as a minor, verbal neighborhood dispute at an apartment complex involving a tenant's assistant and a resident named Carrie. While Deputy Robert Glaser was investigating, another resident, Gregory Whaling, stepped outside with his dog. Whaling, who was recovering from two major knee replacement surgeries and walked with a cane, vocalized his frustration at the situation.
Instead of de-escalating the environment, Deputy Glaser immediately turned his aggression toward Whaling, threatening to lock him in the back of a patrol car for "interfering."
When Whaling stood his ground, gestured to his surgically repaired legs, and dared the deputy by saying, “I bet you won’t,” Glaser snapped.
This isn't policing—it's classic bully behavior. The moment his authority was verbally challenged, Glaser escalated the situation. He took down the man to place him in custody. You can hear Whaling reminding the deputy about his knee replacement, only to be ignored.
Glaser proceeded to book Whaling on a bogus charge of resisting/obstructing an officer (PC 148(a)(1)). But justice ultimately caught up with this badge-heavy behavior:
The District Attorney flat-out refused to file charges against Whaling.
The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department fired Deputy Robert Glaser for false arrest and excessive force.
Riverside County was forced to pay a massive $498,000 settlement to Whaling after a federal civil rights lawsuit was filed.
Bad policing is expensive, dangerous, and entirely unacceptable. Share your thoughts on this escalation below.
At least in this situation this now former officer will never be able to negatively impact the citizens of that city again.
Would be a shame if this guy became famous on 𝕏 for kicking out Scott Presler from the South Dakota State Convention: “Get the hell outta here”
“I’m the assh*le saying you can’t come in”
JOHN THUNE IS VERY WORRIED
Watch this cop plant drugs on this couple, intentionally ruining their lives.
Zachary (Zach) Wester, a former deputy with the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office in Florida, was convicted of systematically planting methamphetamine and other drugs on innocent motorists during traffic stops to inflate his arrest numbers.
He faced 67 counts involving 12 victims. A jury convicted him on 19 counts (including official misconduct, false imprisonment, fabricating evidence, etc.) but acquitted him on many others. He was sentenced to 12 years, 6 months, and 8 days in prison.
These people are simply shitheads, they are disruptors, antagonists and really serve no purpose in society. I would investigate where he gets his money from, likely not paying taxes on it. He might find an IRS investigation a bit antagonizing
Deputy pulls them over for yelling 'fucking losers' out the window... Driver goes full sovereign: 'You work for me, I don't work for you!' then calls him an 'idiot' & demands badge number 😱🔥
Chief Sund was Pelosi's (and others) scapegoat. She forced him to resign on Jan 7. Sund was just months away from retirement eligibility and deprived of a job he loved--all so Pelosi could place the blame on his shoulders. Congress should right this wrong.
Flock Mass Surveillance cameras were abused again, what a surprise. You're no longer living in a free country as long as these 4th Amendment violating cameras still stand.
