In one of the only instances in recent history in which a Vermont cop has been sent to jail for something they did on-duty, fired SAPD cop Jason Lawton has been sentenced to a whole *three months* for beating Amy Connelly in 2019: sevendaysvt.com/vermont/form…

This photo was posted to FB today. Unsure what happened yet, but 2 BPD cop cars got in a serious crash around 4 at N. St. and N. Champlain. Sounds like a third car was involved too.
Hopefully that person is okay. BPD has a bad track record lately of recklessly endangering people
ALT A photo showing two heavily damaged cop cars at the corner of North Street and North Champlain. One is on the curb, has heavy rear end damage, and the airbags are deployed; the other has heavy front-end damage. There is a fire truck in the background and two cops are standing in the middle of the road. There is snow on the ground.

Update: they crashed into each other; the third car was *parked* with nobody in it. Luckily nobody was hurt: mynbc5.com/article/two-burli…

After harassing poor people and people of color in real life they get to do it again but as a game, for only $100k

So the “only two cops on patrol” hit each other? What are the odds

The NYPD's own data shows that cops "have dramatically increased enforcement against people using cell phone cameras to record the police."
"A vast majority of the citizens arrested or ticketed while recording video were people of color."

Not hyperbole; this is the VA cop who was just in the news for killing the family of a teenage girl he met online using a fake persona msn.com/en-us/news/crime/wha…

Made the mistake of getting in a debate with those NYC parking snitches who claim the reason they are reporting random people to the police for obscuring their license plates, is to hold the police accountable 🙄
