Even cops street race

[DataXUnknown]

Horrible outcome, 2 19-year old teens dead because of this dumbass cop. Me being almost 20 I just think about what if that was me and a girlfriend.

There seems to be a trend in really dumb police officers lately. Although this crash was on June 13, the video was just released from the other officers cruiser.


ORANGE, Conn. (Nov. 18) - An arrest affidavit says a Milford police officer charged with manslaughter for a car crash that killed two teenagers was driving 94 miles per hour and was not on an emergency call.
State police earlier this month charged Jason Anderson with two counts of second-degree manslaughter and one count of reckless driving. He was released on $250,000 bond. Anderson, who has been suspended with pay, is due to be arraigned Nov. 24.

Milford Connecticut Police Officer Jason Anderson Charged in Fatal Crash (http://news.aol.com/article/milford-connecticut-police-officer-jason/773587?icid=main|aim|dl1|link3|http%3A%2F%2Fnews.a ol.com%2Farticle%2Fmilford-connecticut-police-officer-jason%2F773587)

It's not confirmed they were street racing, but only "speculation" there may have been street racing between the two officers. But we all know, chances are they were racing.

[Brian]

What a fucker.

[nissansrbetter16]

How can you suspend him with pay, he was doing somthing he is supposed to be stopping other people from doing I think he should have it worse than any regular person should.

[randomxzero]

they should be giving his pay to the families of the teens that were in the vehicle...

[HyperTek]

geez, I want to know why the cop was speeding, if he had his sirens on, i could understand, but he didnt. We see this all the time though, cops speeding off.

[Genovese.Jr]

hipocrites i swear

[Brian]

He was speeding becuase he was going somewhere important.

He was speeding because he was an idiot.

He was speeding because he was racing.


I'm guessing at least one of those.

[Couped_up'd]

Man. That is fucked up. Sad they died.

[aziankingz]

if they werent dead the officer would have given them reckless driving tickets

[yota man]

Damn it sucks that you have to hear more stories like this. When I was in high school a kid who went there was killed pretty much the same way. The cop was going 68 in a 35 with no lights on and slammed into the side of his car. The cop was speeding to take a ticket book to another officer who had run out.

The cop was "fired" but it turns out he really just got transferred to the next town over.

I think that if they aren't going to an emergency or don't have there lights on they should be punished just as much or if not more than any of us would be if we had done the same thing.

[allntrlundrgrnd]

bad news :(

I see cops all the time flying by without their lights/sirens on, actually came very close to being hit by one goin at least 90 while I was crossing the highway one step further and i would have been done.

also drives me crazy when they turn on their lights to go through red lights then turn them off after the intersection. sorry for getting off topic, this really is very unfortunate story

[xBlastoisex]

wow.... and cops do it all the time and think just because they have a badge they can get away with doing what ever the hell they want...

[Mr.350Gt]

Fuck the Police!!

[Team DET]

man that sucks

[SR_Vlurs]

those guys are asshole hope they get fucking shot

[zenki.life]

"suspend with pay" what the fuck.

they always get paid for dumb shit

[Flicktitty]

I'm not going to be the one to defend what happened as it seems he was speeding for no apparent reason.

BUT

We see this all the time though, cops speeding off.



also drives me crazy when they turn on their lights to go through red lights then turn them off after the intersection. sorry for getting off topic, this really is very unfortunate story

From a standpoint of alot of family and friends in law enforcment,Rescue and the Fire dept., i have 3 police/fire/resuce radio's throughout my house. and they are on constantly 24-7-365. I know i hear atleast 5 times aday for a call that the person on the phone "requests no light and siren" but the cops/fire/rescue still need to get there as fast as they can. some people don't want/need the attention that comes with multiple loud cars pulling into there house.

Other time's i know going to some calls, Police won't use there light or siren for fear of whoever there going after getting away. I go to work with my brother who is a Srgt. on the police dept. here. and I've asked him a few times why we aren't using them. and he said that. One night there was a domestic disput, and he didn't want the people leaving so he got there as quickly as he could without them knowing they were coming, same for breaking and entering/bar fights/thefts/etc. element of suprise. Alot of times if a cop is going to one of those calls they will flash the lights going through/coming up to intersections just to "clear" them of traffic.

but like i stated, this act wasen't at all justified.

[Brian]

It''s useless Flicktitty, Zilvia is full of tough-asses who hate the police and think everything about them is wrong and evil.

[Flicktitty]

THIS!

Both Police officers should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. I just wish Law Enforcement people didn't always feel they were above the law. Tax payers should NOT pay for this, the police officers personal estate should!

[Brian]

THIS!
I just wish Law Enforcement people didn't always feel they were above the law.

Not many people have jobs that put them in potential life ending situations everyday. Police offers, however, are in this profession. They risk their life every single day for the general population, yet people seem to piss and shit all over their name at any chance. I think they DO have the right to feel "above the law" with certain things and at certain times.


I guess it's just the fact that a lot of people (especially in this little "car world" we participate in) hold personal grudges against police. It makes sense if you take the time to think about it.


Anyways, it's tragic that innocent people died for what seems to be no reason.

[let5l1de]

I too have friends & family in all sorts of these positions as well... But just like the fools in general public, fools are found in every agency too. Lets not bring out the stories from LAPD & LAFD parties... like we would spill on zilvia. bwahhaha....

Sad to hear about Law Enforcement take out some teens. LAPDs' motto is "To Protect & To Serve". Unfortunately, these 2 teens got served...

sirens or no sirens, this should not be happening.

[allntrlundrgrnd]

haha yeah, but i can still put my :2c: in, i won't loose any sleep over it either.

As everyone else can. I understand the minimal heat aspect of no lights/sirens, but I still think its a dangerous practice.

I have family in law enforcement as well.

[ryguy]

You know regardless of what actually happened, the 2nd officer will get off scot free. "Internal Investigation" pffft what a joke. At least the first officer was actually arrested and charged.

[nyc240sx]

theres good cops that give courtesy and respect and there the asshole ones that treat people like shit especially these new nypd rookies there pain in the ass to deal with it they would arrest you for speeding or reckless driving never happened to me but it did on a bicycle pedicab in manhattan iam sick of the young dumb cops that dont know how to do there job i do respect the older ones that dont harrass you for any apparent stupid reason

[Z32TT-R]

wow that blows

[Slammed Assassin]

man that sucks.

[touge monster]

A lot of times the police department have rules regarding the use of lights/sirens. Around here in CA, for most police/sheriff departments, to go code 3 (lights/sirens) the officer/deputy has to get authorization.

From what I know, there can only be an X amout of cars going code 3 at the same time in the city (area). Say there was a call out. 5 cars responding and 2 out of the 5 has code 3 authorization. The 3 cars responding w/o lights and sirens will still have to get there as fast as possible, esp. if its an emergency ... which would explain why cops sometimes speed and flip on their lights to go pass a red. Often times officers forgets that people don't see them as cearly as they would if lights/sirens were on.

^ I dont kno about other states, but its true for police departments in CA.

So don't be so quick to judge... If he was infact driving like an idot, i feel he should be punished to the fullest extent of the law and all of his money should go to the family of the victims.. but if he was legitimately responding to an emergency then its just one of those horrible accidents that can happen sometimes and its really unfortunate that it did happen. My heart goes out to the families of the victims.

[Andrew @ 240sxMotoring]

Woah. That's the next town over from us.

[enkei2k]

i think it's dangerous not having the flashing lights/sirens going off. i almost got knocked last night because of that actually. i had the right of way making a left turn and then last minute all of a sudden, he decides to turn on his sirens/lights coming straight at me. keep in mind this was about 11pm at night.

flick - element of surprise, i can understand that to an extent. but really, if anybody hears a car flying down the street at 70 mph in a quiet residential local zone, i'm pretty sure with lights or without, they'll get suspicious or look that direction, and whey they see its a cruiser, they getaway.

[HyperTek]

they should have speed tripping sirens that kick on at WOT, acceleration or high speed.

Edit: re watched it, he ran through the flashing lights intersection *i presume Yellow*, yeah hes a bitch.

[xsublimefrekx]

i live in the next town and i am in milford a lot. I have friends who have shops on the main road and i have watched milford cops street race hundreds of times with total disregard to what is around. I also know a bunch of milford police that are awesome people. Theres were clearly two asshats that thought they were above the law and the one is going to pay for it.

[240cracker]

so many cops have their heads up there asses especially where i live

they think they can do whatever they want and eventually they will have a wake up call

2 older people a couple months ago died right in front of the police station by a women police officer. she was chasing soneone, ran the light smashed into a car and then rolled her car into the police station parking lot. she had no lights on or anything.

SAD

[!Zar!]

Zilvia.net where everyone hates the police and they are always wrong.

[zylvia213]

some fucked up shit.... I hate how cops break the law all the time. Instead of setting the right example they do the opposite..... fucked up shit about it is that they like to get people for this stuff but yet they do it themselves. I feel for the teens parents.

[murda-c]

You can't hear a speeding car coming from a mile away at night.

[JRas]

cops drive 20mph over the posted all day long.

If they get pulled over, "I'm a cop"... boom, off the hook.

my buddies uncle is a cop, owns a beastly old mustang.. telling me how he walked on an EVO by like 10 car lengths.

[silcoupeguy987]

man i tooo almost got hit by a speeding cop a few times, i see them doing all kinds of stupid shit

i cant belive the lives they changed and everything all i can say is WOW!!!!!!

[Walperstyle]

I saw a cop car with lights on almost get run off the road by some idiot.

I think the cop was in the wrong, but I still find it funny how all of you guys just hate cops because you a) either get tickets or b) have had them shut down a party because it was noisy. ...and thats all you know about them.

Cops save lives, when was the last thread about that?

/rant on most of society

[lewisfk]

no accountability period!

[cisco240]

I once saw a cop slow for a red light & then run through it only to have to swerve & almost run on the sidewalk to avoid getting hit by a car that had the green light. And for what??? TACO BELL. I end up seeing the cop pull into a Taco Bell for some food. Guess he was really hungry.

Okay, I'll bite...

A 10 year old girl was tasered by a police officer who responded to a domestic dispute. KHBS's Damon Maloney reports.

Video - Breaking News Videos from CNN.com (http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/us/2009/11/18/maloney.ar.girl.tasered.KHBS)

In the situation the officer was at, he had no other choice - he had to get the child under control


10 year old girl? really?

[Brian]

one sided story.
where is the rest of the story?
What was the 10 year old girl doing? Did she have a weapon? knife? gun? brass knuckles? etc.?

[drift_limo]

"suspend with pay" what the fuck.

they always get paid for dumb shit


right!

ima be a cop cuz damm i seem to do alot of stupid shit
true story

[s142jzkillav10]

I love cops street raceing. It keeps the Sport Alive............................................. ......................

[foreverdark]

That shit is just messed up. That is going to be a huge lawsuit! I feel bad for the families.

[Wake]

just goes to show that even with a badge and a gun you can still be a fucking idiot.

for some reason cops think they are better and smarter than everyone with out a badge. In my opinion they are just as bad as any gang that wears all one color, theirs just happens to be dark blue.

[325irollin]

Happened here a while ago. Cop was going like 100 on the highway, lost control, slide across the grass and smashed into another car head on killing the young people inside. I think cops just get a big ego boost when they get in their cop cars and think they are invincible.

[Wake]

HAHA last time i got arrested was by CHP and he got on the freeway and tried to be all badass and punch it, those things are wicked slow.

Seriously i think a stock KA could take a cop car off the line, those things are all top end.
they feel heavier and slower than my buddies SRT-8 charger.

[ALTRNTV]

When the police do good things and save people's lives, and risk their own everyday, when do you hear
about that? Never, because ass-clowns like most people on here hate the police just because they got pulled
over in their piece of shit primered 240sx with an Ebay special exhaust.

The cops in this case were in the wrong, but why do threads like this always have to hate on the police organization
as a whole? There's bad apples in every bunch, just like a shitload of douchebach s-chassis owners who ruin it for
the true enthusiasts.

I don't hate all cops...I've never really had any problems with them (my good friends dad is the chief for my area) so I've heard a bunch of stories first hand. They do have to deal with a TON of shit on the daily, more then a lot of people would know. But the thing is, most take the daily bull as that's their job and responsibility! A small minority can make it bad for a majority but that could be said for any type of group.

[Brian]

I've been watching the video and thought about something.

When I am making a left turn at an intersection with NO turn arrow, I sure as SHIT look in front of me to see if it is safe to turn.
Now, I haven't been in the exact situation, but I'm pretty sure I would notice a car coming at me going 70mph+. Yikes

wow. So you're the resident crooked cop apologist...

yes, it's the kid's fault for making the left as opposed to the cop going 80+ on a 45mph road.

45mph = 66 feet per second.
90mph= 132 feet per second.

If I see a car 400 feet before me, assuming that most cars are +-5mph within the speed limit, it would give me roughly 6 seconds to make that left turn. MORE than enough time.

But if officer dick face is doing 90mph, I see some lights 400 feet away, which I'd again judge to be safe, assuming that no one is stupid enough to be doing double the posted speed limit, I'd take the turn...except this time, I'd only have 3 seconds to make that left.

So your blaming the kids for assuming the cop is a responsible citizen as opposed to blaming the cop for being an asshat that treats a 45mph street like the autobahn?

and it wasn't even a half assed assumption given that it was a 19 year old kid. If the cop was going the speed limit, it would have doubled the time to turn for the kids. They'd still be here today.

[Omarius Maximus]

Not many people have jobs that put them in potential life ending situations everyday. Police offers, however, are in this profession.

You make it sound as though someone forced them to take the job. Last I checked, it is a choice to be a cop. 95 percent of the time, they are reduced to being roadway taxmen for their local municipalities. And they get a shit name for it.

There is absolutely NO instance for a cop to be above the law. They cannot and should not be above the one fucking thing they took a sworn oath to uphold. That's the biggest crock of bullshit I've ever heard. I'm Officer Holierthanthou, I took a sworn oath to uphold the law...wait, I mean except for those times when I personally break them. Yeah, that makes tons of sense.

There is no exclusionary clause in that oath. Cops regulate the general public, and they better regulate their damn selves too.

[joeapple8]

May those boys rest in peace and their families the best, I hate it when cops get off with special treatment, but again, what they did was stupid, he should of had sirens on... idiot two lives gone for what? a thrill ride for an overpaid redneck? no offense to any officers but they shouldn't be doing this shit on the clock

Hey mad guy,
I didn't blame the kids.
I simply stated an observation.
Chill out. You're gonna blow an o-ring.

Have fun in fantasy land.
I'm in the real world, let me know when you get here.


A police officer is allowed to shoot a person in given situations.
They are allowed to allowed to speed.
Allowed to pull people over.
Allowed to arrest people.
etc.
Are we allowed to do that? No.

The answer is no.


So I guess in your Fantasy World, A police officer would never be allowed to fire a weapon at somebody, and if they DID, they would go right to jail for it.

AVOVE THE LAW.

It's how the world works. Welcome to life.


Oh any by the way, in case you still want to be Mr. Rough and Tough, I already said they are at fault if they were indeed speeding through the town for no reason. So chill out. One day you're going to need the police too. Maybe they will help you.

[Omarius Maximus]

I'm also allowed to shoot people given certain situations, and make a citizen's arrest if I witness a felony. I don't see your point?

The things you have listed aren't "above the law", those are privileges that are written into law to help peace officers enforce said law.

Above the law is having a "blue shield". Having your buddy that witnessed you speeding 2x the speed limit in the other patrol car abstruct justice by not reporting the truth behind the incident and instead blaming a couple of innocent kids for their own deaths.

[!Zar!]

Okay, I'll bite...

10 year old girl? really?

So? Kid obviously did something to deserve it. Being a 10yr old girl doesn't give you the right to act like a little dip shit to an adult; let alone an officer.

That hurt the kid about as much as a spanking. BOO HOO.

haha, somehow i KNEW Citizen's Arrest would come up.


Good luck with that one.
Oh, and shooting people too.


Anyways, I'm tired of the little 240 kids being 100% anti-police just becuase they got busted once or twice for driving illegal cars.

Give me a break.

I'll continue to live in reality.
You do whatever you want.

I like where this thread is going...

[catthefish]

ive sat at a light n watch 2 cops race each other before its bullshit, 1 in a charger police car other in a crown vic. i dnt street race but y should someone who arests people for racing be overlooked for it themselves

I am still not calling justice served until criminal charges are brought to them. If something this egregious was worth firing someone in a position where "suspended with pay" is the usual punishment for anything, then surely there is something charge-worthy as well.
