Btw, his conversation with the bad cop is hilarious. <BR/><BR/>When Darrow walked outside to his 1997 Nissan Maxima, he noticed two officers sitting in a marked squad car, numbered 65. There is little question as to why the officers were there. "As I got into the car, he started to pull up the street and he and his partner just stared me down," Darrow explained. The patrol car drove away as Darrow started his car and followed....Members of the police community are on the record regarding their desire to stake out Darrow's home and harass the twenty-year-old. In late June, users of St. Louis Cop Talk, an unofficial forum for Saint Louis area law enforcement, posted Darrow's home address along with messages containing apparent death threats in retaliation for the young motorist's taping of a DUI roadblock in November and a traffic ticket in June. One Cop Talk user repeating the address wrote, "Every copper, City and County, should etch this little punks name in their memory. Brett Darrow, [address deleted], city of St. Louis." The city of St. George was forced to fire Sergeant James Kuehnlein for his threat to "come up with reasons" to "lock up" Darrow. An investigation into whether Kuehnlein's actions merit criminal charges is under way.... Darrow met on Monday with a Saint Louis County Police Department detective. "I quickly learned that this was about finding something I did wrong and not the officer," Darrow said. <BR/><BR/>http://www.thenewspaper.com/news/19/1988.aspAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2546950008014232634.post-53799198150162145442009-04-11T19:15:00.000-07:002009-04-11T19:15:00.000-07:00First, yes, I agree, the possibility of bad intent...First, yes, I agree, the possibility of bad intentions should definitely be under consideration, but it that he did do something that would have resulted in felony charges against anyone other than a cop, that is he violently resisted arrest and assaulted an officer.<BR/><BR/>As for the link, thanks for sharing it.

Geskie's abuse of his authority cost him his job as an Ulster County sheriff's deputy and landed him on a state sex-offender registry, but it won't cost him any prison time. State Supreme Court Justice Joseph Teresi kept his promise and sentenced Geskie Thursday to probation" <BR/> <BR/><BR/>http://www.recordonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20090410/NEWS/904100382Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2546950008014232634.post-69444039842415514432009-04-11T16:50:00.000-07:002009-04-11T16:50:00.000-07:00Since when is voyeurism and trespassing a "a tempo...Since when is voyeurism and trespassing a "a temporary lapse in judgment"?
