Of course he turned off his body camera and theyve determined he wont face any consequences.

Those bodycams need to be on for every minute the cop is on duty with no way for them to be turned off in the field.

The story does sound bad, like in a "screw that cop" way.
I agree.

Actually looking at the article, I saw a picture of the 10 yr old and...like did they put the wrong pic?

Either way, pretty bad.

police are a protected class. they're the state's revenue collectors, and it would be financially harmful to change police culture to serve the citizens.

they don't even get encouraged to deescalate. if they bully and antagonize somebody into reacting in a way to "make them feel threatened," they can justify murder/brutality/arrest.

they've killed children before.

This is why the black community doesn't trust cops. When a ten year old boy can have their life threatened like this with absolutely no repercussions, it's just sickening.

The boy was lucky he isn't quite big enough to be "mistaken for an adult", otherwise he'd probably would have been shot.

I'd say the family needs to sue the hell out of the station, but we know how often cops get convicted....

"He did not violate any of our procedures or policies, and we are not looking at termination of this officer, who is a seasoned veteran, Soffe said.


He could have shot and killed the kid and we'd be getting the same response.

One of the billion reasons why you can't trust or believe cops. Hatred and mistrust towards police is justified no matter what the authoritarian ass kissers say. They'll say "it's a few bad apples", but they forget the rest of the saying. The few bad apples spoil the bunch.

be the best human being that you can be. it's not up to a specific individual to do something about it because it's a cultural thing.

at most, you can "lead" by example. be open to learning new perspectives, work on humanizing people more so than politicizing people, have integrity and don't encourage toxic behavior... all any of us can do, really. but enough people doing that can influence the culture itself.

fixing it within the police department takes more than just a collective of decent individuals, though. the case with the NYPD 12 is a great example of how officers have to navigate through corruption.

there's a documentary on Hulu called Crime + Punishment that covers it.

"Our officer draws his gun and gives commands for the young man to get on the ground, thinking this is one of the suspects we are looking for, Soffe said.

Soffe says once the officer got closer, he realized DJ was not one of the suspects and holstered his weapon. He says the encounter lasted less than a minute.

I would like to know what specifically this kid was doing that the officer felt made him a likely suspect. Just him being black and in the area is not enough. If the description is "black males" it does not mean you get to go around pointing a gun at every black male you see.

They should really reevaluate police schools training programs if their man cant even keep calm and collective in front of a 10 year old.

They need to up the standards so any old random joe cant join anymore.

Soffe acknowledged the gun could have been pointed at DJ, as he got on the ground.

When he went down to the ground, the low ready position is forward at about a 45 degree angle, so as he went to the ground, yes, it could have been pointed at him. But it is not our training to point our guns at anyones head," he said.
