this is a few blocks from my house..

 

BRICK

Yeah, I was just gonna post that, also on the APP web page a grade school teacher in my town was charged with lewdness at the GSP Monmouth rest area.

 

The Brick CO is of interest because it shows how hollowpoints can become an extra charge in a crime. And yet another bad apple in the LEO community that was authorized to carry a firearm.

:shock:

And yet another bad apple in the LEO community that was authorized to carry a firearm.

 

IMO we will see crime rise, across ALL levels of society as this recession continues.

Maybe we should bump up CO pay, and cut back the Police pay. They both play a dangerous role in the LEO community. If this guy was making 60k a year im sure he wouldn't need to be robbing a CVS.

 

But then again my thinking can be irrational at times. :naughty:

It does not matter how much some people make, they do not know how to manage money.

 

The more they have the more they spend..

+1.

 

I have worked with couples taking home 40k a month, close to half a mil a year, and they were in debt 10k each month....

 

and I have a client, one of my wealthiest, that never earned more than 40k a year. what he did was save 20% of his pay each time.

App just updated the headline on the front page to

"Cops shoot armed CVS burglary suspect in Brick"

You could get fired the 3rd day of the academy, NEVER wear your hiring Department's uniform, or even be issued a weapon, and when you get arrested 20 years later the headline will read "Former Cop Commits Crime"

As more details emerge, and reading the comments on the APP, he was stopped earlier that morning near a CVS in Toms River while the alarm was going off, flashed his badge and was let go. Then i guess he drove to the Brick store, and ended up getting shot in the FACE... APP still claims he was a CO @ Yardville, but comments on the story say he was fired for drug issues... either way, it's a black mark on all of us.. unfortunately more so on the LEO's and CO's.. not like it said "Brick Police shoot NJ F.I.D. holder during robbery", but still bad press and food for the anti's..

 

The worlds gone crazy, this happens a few block from my house, a few months back a bank was robbed like 2 blocks from me, and the perps ran down my street to get away from the cops.. crime is everywhere.. :oops:

That is so true, I remember that topic being brought up in one of my courses. We had to write 3 current events of police officers who got in trouble with the law, and so many of the stories read Former Police officer. Some being retired for over 20 years,

I had a bank robber go off not a block away from me on a foot post once. the Bad Guys MUST have walked right past me. The bank (Howard) had a policy they they would acceed to any demands from the rober, then NOT CALL the pd for 15 minutes after the BG's left...and, of course the Idiots actually made that statement to the press...Howard banks were hit all over the state for weeks after that.

I believe he was actually still a CO.

NOT according to State CO's that I know, he was either on suspension pending, or had been fired for drugs.

Currently suspended awaiting further investigation into suspicious activity prior to this weekend is what I heard.

 

Glad to see none of the Brick Police responding to the scene or anybody from the general public were hurt. Also, the responding officers did a good job of protecting themselves as well as their town. Nice shot too...no need for multiple shots fired.

Scott that is the info I had as well...

NOT quite the same thing..while i Sympathise with Rogan to a LARGE Degree, (I've had to deal with those %%#$$@%^#$%#^ F-stains from Critical Mass), You just cant randomly bodyslam said F-stain off his bike without his committing SOME sort of offense first.

 

My point was more towards the guy who had been fired years before, or retired for a couple of decades before getting jammed up. Rogan was Active when he stepped on his peepee.

Additional charges filed against N.J. corrections officer who allegedly robbed Brick pharmacy

Activist Admits to Taunting NYPD Officer

NEW YORK --

 

As he faced arrest, the cycling activist had something to say to a police officer who had shoved him off his bike: "What are you waiting for? Assault me!"

 

"I wanted this situation to go all the way," cyclist Christopher Long testified Tuesday at the former officer's trial.

 

The ex-officer, Patrick Pogan, is accused of knocking him off the bike during a pro-cycling demonstration and lying about what had happened. The charges were filed after a tourist's video of the July 2008 incident was posted on YouTube, drawing more than 2 million views so far.

 

Pogan has pleaded not guilty. His lawyer, Stuart London, portrays Long as a provocateur who engineered and cashed in on a confrontation with a rookie officer. Long sued the city and reached a $65,000 settlement.

 

"He clearly promoted (the encounter) toward getting the officer in trouble," London said outside court.

 

Long said Tuesday that he leaned toward Pogan as the officer strode into his path - to blunt a collision Long said he couldn't avoid - darted away from Pogan and another officer afterward, and writhed and taunted them as they tried to handcuff him.

 

In testimony that sometimes elicited chuckles from the courtroom audience and Long himself, he also acknowledged other brushes with the law and a marijuana-smoking habit he said had spurred his discharge from the Army in 2001.

 

Manhattan prosecutors say Long's behavior doesn't excuse Pogan's conduct. After abruptly body-checking Long, Pogan covered his tracks by falsely reporting that Long had steered into him, prosecutors say.

 

"This case is not about whether you like Christopher Long," Manhattan Assistant District Attorney Ryan Connors told jurors in an opening statement Monday.

 

London says a supervisor wrote Pogan's report for him, and his encounter with Long was just an effort to carry out instructions to stop cyclists if he spotted traffic violations during the demonstration, known as Critical Mass. It's a monthly event in which cyclists, sometimes hundreds, ride together.

 

On July 25, 2008, Long was reveling at reaching a stretch of open road in Times Square - fellow Critical Mass riders were blocking traffic - when he noticed Pogan and another officer standing in the street. Long said he tried to steer around Pogan, but the officer closed in on him, and they collided. Long landed on a sidewalk grate; he wasn't seriously hurt.

 

"Did you think you were going to go right through me? Would you like to try that again?" Pogan said, according to Long.

 

Long was charged with resisting arrest and other offenses. The charges were later dropped.

 

Pogan, 24, faces up to four years in prison if convicted. He resigned from the New York Police Department last year.

 

Long was also arrested again in December on charges of smashing a side-view mirror on a stranger's car. He pleaded guilty to a violation and was sentenced to a day of community service, according to his testimony. He told jurors he clobbered the mirror while drunk on scotch and frustrated about issues related to his lawsuit settlement.

 

When asked, Long agreed he would described himself as "anti-government" and considered the police department "beyond reform."

 

Lanky and voluble, Long obliged as Pogan's lawyer delved into his marijuana use, his spotty driving record and his personal life.

 

"I'm not shy, and I like talking, and I'm enjoying myself," said Long, who has worked as a gardener and farmer's market staffer but is now unemployed. "But I think it's kind of boring."

Long said he tried to steer around Pogan

I doubt that.

This Asshat still cost Pogan his career though...... He Ultimately WINS because the city decided not to fight him and settled, no matter what the outcome of this case is.
