Ohio Officer Allegedly Abused Children With Taser-Like Weapon
Friday, January 1st, 2010A part-time police officer has reportedly been charged for allegedly abusing his girlfriend’s young children with a Taser-like weapon.
Kevin McCann, 47, of Lawrence Township, Ohio, has been charged with two counts of felonious assault and two counts of felony child endangering. McCann allegedly used a Taser-like weapon this on Christina Robinson’s 3-year-old daughter and 2-year-old son, the Canton Repository reports.
Authorities do not believe McCann shocked the children and they do not believe the weapon he allegedly used in this incident was given to him as part of his official duties, according to the newspaper.
Robinson, 22, also of Lawrence Township, is charged with four counts of felony child endangering.
Both suspects were arraigned Wednesday and denied all charges. They remain in the Stark County Jail with bond set at $500,000.
The two children in question and a younger sibling have been placed with a relative with supervision provided by the Stark County Department of Job and Family Services, the newspaper reports.
North Carolina Officer Charged With On-Duty Sex Crimes
Friday, January 1st, 2010CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officer has been charged with sexually assaulting two female motorists while in uniform and operating his patrol car.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Officer Marcus Jackson, 25, was charged with sexual battery, second-degree sex offense, extortion, kidnapping, indecent exposure and two counts of felonious restraint. He was being held in lieu of bond totaling $360,000 ahead of a court hearing Thursday, according to jail records. The records did not indicate whether he had an attorney, and a jail spokesman did not immediately return a call seeking information.
Jackson was immediately fired after his arrest Wednesday night, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Rodney Monroe said.
“To have one of our own involved in such a despicable act is not only a violation of the public trust, but a complete dishonor to this officer and every officer that wears this badge,” Monroe said. “We work very hard to gain and maintain the public’s trust, and this knocks us backward.”
The case began after a relative reported Monday that a 17-year-old girl said she was ordered into Jackson’s car on Dec. 18, driven to another location, and assaulted. The girl said the officer had been wearing his uniform and driving his marked patrol car.
On Tuesday, a 21-year-old woman told detectives she’d been assaulted under similar circumstances the previous night, Monroe said.
Both of the reported incidents happened between 11 p.m. and 2 a.m. in east Charlotte, where Jackson was on duty.
“It is profoundly disappointing when one of our police officers engages in such heinous conduct,” Mayor Anthony Foxx said in a statement. “It obscures the fact that the vast majority of our officers are dedicated, hardworking people.”
Monroe added that “it would be naive” to think others had not been assaulted by Jackson, according to a report Thursday in the Charlotte Observer.
The police chief reportedly released Jackson’s photo at a news conference in the hopes that other potential victims will come forward.

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009Police: Ohio Suspect May Have Eaten Evidence
STREETSBORO, Ohio – Police say a bank robbery suspect in Ohio may have eaten evidence when he gobbled a piece of paper while handcuffed and lying across the hood of a police cruiser.
A police video camera captured the 35-year-old John Ford of Cleveland grabbing the paper with his mouth as police emptied his pockets.
Ford was arrested following a report of a bank robbery in Streetsboro just south of Cleveland on Thursday.
Police say a man walked into the bank and handed a teller a note that demanded money.
Police say they found money in a bag in Ford’s car, which fit the description of the bank robber’s vehicle, along with a bank die pack that had exploded.
Ford was being held in the Portage County Jail on Saturday where his file did not indicate he had a lawyer

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009Jason Anderson Charged With Manslaughter As Police Release Shocking Car Crash Tape (VIDEO)
Milford police released video today of a deadly collision that killed two teens in June.
The dashboard cam of a police cruiser shows a speeding Officer Jason Anderson pass on the right side of the road and barrel into Ashlie Krakowski and David Servin as they made a left-hand turn. Servin died at the scene. Krakowski died later at the hospital.
Anderson was driving 94 mph and did not have his lights or siren on. Even worse, the officer was not responding to a call and had no reason to be speeding.
The officer has been charged with manslaughter but is on paid leave from the department.
Thanks to Steph

Photographer detained for taking photos of the LA subway system
Monday, November 9th, 2009Photographer detained for taking photos of the LA subway system
By David Markland
November 8th, 2009 @ 10:25 PM Law Enforcement, Mass TransitThe photographer “Discarted” has gone done it again and threatened national security by violating the laws of the MTA and taking photos of the Los Angeles subway system that he could very likely end up selling to Al Qaeda. Seems perfectly reasonable that he be detained by LA Sheriffs, right?
Except that there is no rule prohibiting public photography in Los Angeles subway systems. And any detainment would require a reasonable suspicion of the subject having committed a crime… which may have occurred, but the only unusual activity the Sheriff ever cites is Discarted’s act of taking photos.
After handcuffing Discarted, the sheriff doing most of the talking, Officer Richard Gylfie, is heard threating threatening to put him the FBI’s “hit list” and will be flagged and detained before boarding planes, trains, or other forms of transportation where an ID is checked. And why? Apparently for not shivering in fear to Gylfie’s demands to tell him why he’s taking photos… or maybe I’m missing something.
As if it needs repeating, photography is allowed in public spaces, including the subway system. Its a shame that the same people who we pay to enforce our laws are blatantly ignorant of this, and instead abuse the power that we bestow upon them to harass and intimidate.
