Louisiana man arrested, detained for nearly 72 hours despite claims of evidence proving innocence

[ianbattles]

Anyone besides a cop would *already* be in jail for lying on a police report.

[jeanlavoie]

Part of the problem is the cop, the other part is the chief that keep a criminal on the force. Both should be fired and held accountable in court.

[mdchaney]

This is why DAs, police, and judges need to be subject to criminal and civil liability with no immunity in cases like this.

[Brees]

If the deputy had five separate suspensions, he should have been fired long ago.

[ianbattles]

Imagine how many innocent people are in prison right now *simply because they didn't have a video proving that the cops lied...*

[mainely]

Yet another cop abusing his authority and lying. This is because there are no consequences. If we're lucky they might give the cop a 3-day paid vacation.

[LMGunslinger]

They really need to start prosecuting cops on perjury.

[patriciaraymond]

How can you screw up that many times on a job and not get fired?

[ClarityDetermination]

Filing a false police report is a felony.

[yesitislikethat]

Soooo, besides the _blatant lying_ about this incident, he’s:

1. Had 5 suspensions for violations on the job between 2020-2021.

2. Since 2020, had 8 complaints against him; 3 this year alone.

3. Drove 80mph in a 45 mph zone… in inclement weather… with someone in custody in the backseat.

4. Backed into someone’s vehicle and drove away- hit and run. Owner of vehicle reported him.

5. Lost his ‘take home care’ privileges various times. Once due to running a red light and driving over 100mph with no lights or sirens.

This piece of trash should’ve been put out of commission a *long* time ago. And all of those officials who have and *are* enabling him, and condoning his actions, need to be out of a job.

[djaa]

This cop has an actual hit & run on his record and wasn't fired over that. Wow. Dirty cops all the way from him, to his supervisors, and the DA.

[Nick]

How do you get suspended from a job 5 times, have multiple traffic infractions, 8 complaints and still not get fired?

[neckarsulme]

why hasn't the deputy been arrested and charged for kidnapping and falsifying an arrest warrant?

[ruelpile]

Why keep a deputy with a history of misconduct on the job in your police department???? That’s incompetent.

[MAGWolf]

How does this officer still have a job? Seems like a huge liability to the county/city/taxpayers. HOA's are corrupt too.

[alexh]

So this officer committed multiple CRIMES, before this whole event happened? Why wasn't he arrested already.

[caelestigladii]

Video surveilance: skinny dude with hair.
Primary suspect: chubby, bald dude.
Corrupt deputy: That’s him 100%!!!

[deepspace]

Everyone involved in the case who saw the videos should be fired, sued and prosecuted.

[thothhermestrismegistus]

They keep saying it was a hit-and-run.
But it wasnt, he contacted the HOA immediatly.

[thiswildridecalledlife]

How does committing perjury not effect his credibility to perform his duty?
