A Sacramento County sheriff's deputy is on administrative leave after he was arrested on suspicion of DUI and resisting arrest over the weekend, the Citrus Heights Police Department said.
The Sacramento County District Attorney's Office said Tuesday they are declining to file charges at this time, pending further investigation.
Declining to file charges? What did he blow in the field sobriety tests? Did he refuse a lawful order to comply with the investigating officer? That lands you in the clink for the night while they try to get your blood out of your veins against your wishes.... But I'm just a lowly civilian, what do I know. I've never sworn an oath to SERVE AND PROTECT.
ReplyDelete"Serve and Protect" is false advertising.
DeleteGotta back the blew...
ReplyDeleteLaw is for thee but not for me.
ReplyDeleteAn ex GF told me about her new BF, now ex. He was a cop. He took her and her son joy riding. He was drunk, wrecked his truck. Cops came but only called a tow truck and gave him a ride home.
DeleteLeft her and son stranded.
I was angry at her. That's what you get, you willing got into his truck while he had been drinking. And how dare you expose her son, who I had great relationship with, to that. She got pretty bad whiplash. That jerk laughed it off. Cops wouldn't take a report. I don't know how involved the hospital got. I do know she paid out of pocket. I paid for full medical exam on her son.
"Suspicion" of DUI? If only there were several ways to test for blood alcohol content; if only.
ReplyDeletePulled over for reckless driving, I blew a 0.0. Fifteen minutes later at the hospital, I blew 0.0. Blood draw, no alcohol present.
ReplyDeleteAt the jail I blew a 0.0.
Cop put me in the drunk tank for three hours.
The reckless driving was me trying to avoid a car trying to ram me. Much later I learned the guy I bought that car from had stiffed some guys in a drug deal. I figure that's what that was all about.
This is were I tell of the local judge who had multiple DUIs but was let off every time. I seem to remember 7 DUIs in a couple of years.
ReplyDeleteThen one bright mid afternoon he hit a young girl riding her bicycle. Killed her right there.
He remained on the bench.
I ain't defending this shit, but The Brotherhood of the Blues have very strong internal codes. If the investigating cop had followed through with the DUI charge, he would have been shunned by fellow cops and when the stars were aligned set up to be either shot or fired.
ReplyDeleteYup, they gotta pretty much kill someone to get treated like an actual criminal:
