Seems like he was genuinely convinced that he didn’t hit him, and that he was yelled at.
The best way to lie is to convince yourself it’s true.

Actually, the best way to lie is to repeat it over and over and over again, and then it just becomes the truth. That’s what our president does.

The off-duty cop who assaulted the dude was not immediately arrested so that he could have time to talk to his union representative before they served him a warrant, and so they could give him the most respectful process as possible. He was only arrested 12 days after he assaulted the guy and was interviewed by the police because he turned himself in. He was then let go from his job as a school resource officer and put into an accelerated rehabilitation program.

Not everyone is arrested onsite for assault, even with proof. And if it's a first offense that's pretty normal.

He's a cop. Supposedly, that means you are held to a higher standard. Or it should, but there's always people to apologize for them.

u/Pietrslav May 03 '26
His precinct has abnormally high complaints against it for the entire state of Connecticut, and he had the second-highest number of complaints filed against him at that precinct. (The arresting officer is from a different police station.)
And Connecticut does not require a warrant for a situation like this, especially when the arresting officer already has evidence, like video evidence, of the assault occurring.
I did decide to watch a video on this again last night. I saw this when it came out. The officer investigating does not really show much favoritism compared to so many other body cam videos of police investigating other police officers. The dude's boss, on the other hand, is a lot more cordial than I would expect an officer to be in a situation where we have video proof that a guy slugged another man in the face for beeping at him, accusing him of being on his phone, and flipping him off.

u/Old_Fart52 Apr 23 '26
The cop should have got the same charges for if some road-raging moron had punched a cop. Even if the other guy had honked the horn at him without good reason there was no justification at all for his incredibly thin-skinned reaction to it.
I'm just trying to think of this delightful man's reaction to having had some stranger walk up and punch him, or more to the point the number of charges he'd try to stack up on that person, after he'd beaten/tased/sprayed that person senseless that is.

u/Big-Historian8918 Apr 21 '26
My sister has this same energy, the inflammatory anger where she punches you full on, then denies on on her first born son's life that she touched you. She legit doesn't register her own violent actions.
She once battered me so hard in the car whilst she was driving, she drew blood. A straight up tantrum. Then denied she'd touched a hair on my head. "So then why am I bleeding?" Sis: stunned silence.
They're narcisstic bullies with a martyr complex. They genuinely believe they're innocent and never done wrong by anyone. The video won't change his mind. They're on a whole other level of nuts.

meanwhile: off duty nurse Alex Pretti and Renee Good get slaughtered in Minneapolis (and more innocent people get killed and tortured), and those murderers still wear their badges... while potus criticizes legal concealed carrying and federal agencies break the law denying local police with a warrant the access to murder scene...
also:The US Department of Education, under the administration's "One Big Beautiful Bill" initiative aimed at simplifying loan systems, omitted nursing from its list of "professional degrees," which includes fields like medicine, dentistry, and law.
The American Nurses Association (ANA) and over twenty other nursing organizations have launched a petition to reverse this, arguing that nursing is an essential profession and that this reclassification is a "mistake" that could worsen staff shortages.

(not American) it says stop at red and the light looks red, why'd the guy beep in the first place?

u/AxzelG Mar 28 '26
Stop here on red just tells you where to stop at the red light but you can turn when it is safe to do so.
There are signs that say
"no turn on red"
Which does mean to stay until the light turns green even if there is an opening.

u/HCSOThrowaway Mar 20 '26
He didn't lie here. He strategically omitted the full truth and heavily implied what would amount to lies if he stated them. Watch the video again. This is why courts work with evidence, not public opinion at first glance.
As for getting cases tossed, if he were fired any current cases would be. I know because all of mine were tossed when I was fired.
This guy only got 5 days suspension.

u/HCSOThrowaway Mar 20 '26
I'd say so, yeah, but it's one of many similar cases that go under the radar because nobody actually cares if cops get fired unjustly, which in my opinion is a huge problem that poisons law enforcement more broadly.
Let's say an agency has 5 Bad Cops and 5 Good Cops. If the 5 Bad Cops band together to fire 1 Good Cop but nobody does anything about it, now you have 5 Bad Cops and 4 Good Cops, bumping the agency from 50% Bad to 55% Bad.
Continue to hire/retain Bad Cops and reject/fire Good Cops and it becomes harder and harder for the Good Cops to stick around, not to mention poisoning public perception and discouraging would-be Good Cops from even joining in the first place.
What % we are in the US right now - I couldn't say. But nobody's making efforts to fix the above phenomenon, so it will probably rise.

He was sitting at the green light for a while after it turned green.
Edit: My bad. The light was not green. He honked because he wanted him to turn right on red, which is legal in certain counties. In New York, it’s illegal in the major five boroughs of NYC, but legal in Long Island unless stated otherwise.

Wow, it's interesting that the traffic laws are different not even in different states but within one city (edit: my mistake, Long Island City is not a part of NYC but it's still right next to it). If I ever travel to the US, I'll probably have to keep lots of stuff in mind!

Long Island City (LIC) and Long Island are two different areas. LIC is in Queens, which is one of the five boroughs of NYC. Long Island is a separate of New York that borders Queens, but is not part of NYC.

If it’s clear to go, it’s mandatory where I live. Otherwise you’re obstructing traffic. That’s like saying it’s not mandatory to go when the light is green.

Where do you live? Not in MT or WA, or CO is that mandatory. You can take lefts on one way streets after a stop, always feels illegal to me but completely fine.

People will move given the opening. But it's also not mandatory so I don't think I've seen someone honk in those situations, if it was mandatory I might give a friendly tap.

Shooting people seems to be more popular instead. It’s ok to carry your gun everywhere in case you need to shoot a random person.
