Think we have bad cops in Winnipeg.. read this story.


Family Says 911 Tape Caught Cops Planning Cover-Up After Shooting


PHOENIX (CN) - A homeowner says a Phoenix police officer shot him six
times in the back during a 911 home-invasion call, and the 911 tape
recorded the officer's partner saying, "That's all right. Don't worry
about it. I got your back. ... We clear?" The family says the officers
were not aware that the 911 call was still recording as they spoke
about covering up the shooting.

Busted.

But guess how it all turns out.

Officer cleared by Phoenix police board in homeowner shooting

A Phoenix police officer who mistakenly shot an armed homeowner
during a search for an intruder was cleared of wrongdoing this week by
a committee that reviews such shootings.
The ruling by the Phoenix Use of Force Board determined Officer
Brian Lilly acted within police policy in the incident, in which he
fired six shots at the homeowner amid the confusion of a home invasion
last September.

Nice eh.

Ummm, they are.

Yesterday I saw two cruisers with four officers in a speed trap on Archibald. Not much traffic at 10am yet there they were. Perhaps they'd be better deployed showing a presence in gangville... But I guess there are ticket revenues and quotas...

Maybe a 11pm curfew for the city of Winnipeg and all of its citizens. after 11pm the death squads are let loose in high crime neighborhoods .

99.5% of our police are very good!
This report is pretty scary about incompetence. I wonder if this is a rookie? Which is still no excuse. It should be interesting on how much money this homeowner will get. Should be enough to hire policemen for around-the-clock protection from the local police!

you should be happy when you see cop cars sitting like that, it means there is no urgent calls right at that moment, so for a brief few minutes or an hour or whatever... theres no crime being reported! i'd say thats a pretty big feat for winnipeg Razz

'acted within police policy in the incident.'

Police policy: 'Do whatever the frick you want.' >.<

My favourite part is where they dragged him through the house and through the gravel.
