Get a year in prison, forcing the car to drive away from them

We cringe once we see videos of cops shooting people through their windshields and windows. But we especially shiver when cops taser people from a moving vehicle because we've got reported within the past how such actions lead can result in the death of kids and jail sentences for unscrupulous cops. Former officers Kenneth Elmore and John McCaffery are two cops who received a year in jail each for their sadistic and dishonest acts.

Authorities said officers Kenneth Elmore and John McCaffery wrongfully used a stun baton to shock Kedrick Kizzie, charged Kizzie with against the law he didn’t commit, so lied to hide up their illegal conduct. the whole incident was recorded on video, but Elmore and McCaffery lied to the district attorney’s office, and also on the arrest, incident, and use of force reports.

“They attacked [the man], charged him with against the law he didn’t commit, and lied to hide it up,” Montgomery County DA Brett Ligon said in a very statement after the officers were sentenced. “These defendants disregarded their oaths to guard, to serve, and to inform the reality.”

According to KHOU, the prosecutor said the one-year sentence was symbolic because that’s what Kizzie would have received if convicted for the crime he didn’t commit.

The truth, as seen within the body camera footage, was much sicker than the officers’ whitewashed police reports. Elmore and McCaffery gone through a domestic disturbance invoke July 29, 2017, where Kizzie was visiting his family.

After entering the house and forcing Kizzie to go away, the officers then gave the 20-year-old man the possibility to run off from the house, down the road, a free man. But the sicko cops had other plans. the 2 men turned to every other and one asked the opposite, “Drive-by taser?”

“Yeah, I’m not gonna chase him on foot, I don’t just chase him. My car will chase him though,” another officer replied. “He’s pissing me off now.”

The question was so nonchalant it gave many observers the impression the pair of cops had done drive-by tasering over and over before. Kizzie, thinking he was a free man and wouldn't be arrested, did what the officers told him to try to which was to depart. But when he saw the officers in their cruisers following him, he believed with the rationale the cops were up to no good and we're actually visiting kill him. He ran.

Running was just what Elmore and McCaffery wanted him to try to do. They pursued him in their squad cars. We don't prefer to race-bait, and that we truly don't seem to be anti-cop, but pro-accountability. However, while we were penning this story we couldn't help but get a visible image of slave owners chasing down fleeing slaves. Two white men with guns were riding in their gas-powered horses, chasing down a fleeing, shirtless, Black man through the streets of Texas. The optics were that disturbing to us.

Fortunately, Montgomery County prosecuting attorney Brett Ligon said he saw throughout the optics and will tell he had a pair of bad cops he had to prosecute. “I’m the son of a policeman. I do know a decent peace officer once I see them. But I also know a foul law officer after I see them,” he told reporters last year. Equally disturbing to some who viewed the video was the way McCaffery spoke to Kizzie after running him down sort of a gazelle and tasering him from a moving police car.

“Run your mouth now bitch! Now, what are you visiting say? Who caught you? Whose prongs are in your f**king back? Who caught you bitch running your f**king mouth!” the general public servant said.

Ligon said it wasn’t the profanity that got the 2 officers arrested and convicted of felonies. it absolutely was lying on their police report, specifically, about stating the officers had given Kizzie multiple opportunities to fits officer commands. In fact, no such accommodation was afforded to the young man. Instead, he was cajoled to run, then tasered, then taunted for running.

Before the chase, McCaffery told Kizzie, “Nobody’s visiting chase you! we would like you to depart.”

That, too, was a lie. In fact, the plan was the other. They wanted him to run, and that they were visiting chase him and taser him when he did.

A Montgomery County jury agreed, convicting the 2 officers for felonious lying on their police reports and sentencing them to prison.

They can now not be peace officers ever again. We salute DA Ligon for doing his job and defending the general public against tyrant sociopaths and, yes, racist cops. We only wish more DA’s were less concerned about getting reelected and terrified of the police officers’ union than they're about keeping the general public safe.
