Why you not think before doing crap
Good! if the Scotland Yard RAPIST can get good setting, so can he!
Exactly
Why would his attorney need to apply for this, when a procedure to house separately any law enforcement personnel charged with a crime should already exist.
Not only that, when I saw the first reporting of this i contacted the AG personally to request for him to act accordingly and he confirmed.
I do not know this officer but I felt compelled to ensure his safety and constitutional rights are protected.
I am so upset seeing that his attorney had to apply for it and that it is not already built into the procedures and proceedings when law enforcement (police, military, immigration, ondcp, customs) officers are charged. They must be houses separately.
All I want from the AG, the person I looked up to, is to show me that some part of my childhood admiration for him on Justice was justified. I am literally begging him to show some form of the superhero status I had in my mind about him. Please. This is the last time I will ever look up to anyone AT THAT LEVEL again.
The attorney shouldn’t have to apply to the court for this. The AG should have already know this clear need and have administrative procedures for this already.
Lol well I can understand that. Because he would certainly be a dead man at the HMP.
WAITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT! AH so ah you ah go on! So he ah go get special treatment like the white man who rape the student? Ah you gi me ah rass break.
Joke yall making in this damn country. Wicket set of people.
yea might get he false teeth knock out a prison mel he tap a navy base.
@ My Way of Helping – I strongly oppose your sentiments. To make a blanket statement that “any law enforcement personnel charged with a crime” should be housed separately would be totally ridiculous and like putting persons who are tasked with maintaining the law, to be above the law.
I can understand that in certain cases where in the execution of their duties and incidents occur that may appear like a criminal matter (some form of ambiguity exist), then these persons should be housed separately. This case with the prison officer could be one of ambiguity.
But to make a blanket order, you are then telling me that any law enforcement agent can go rob and kill someone and because they are military, then they will still be given preferential treatment? In this case, they should be given stronger penalties.
Hey @JFB,
You are correct, all persons, including law enforcement, and more obvious for law enforcement, who have obvious and credible risk of specific harm, should have the right to separate and safe housing. It is something accepted internationally.
There must be this presumption and the rule to keep such persons separate and apart, unless they waive such rights.
Every reasonable jurisdiction has this, except for those that are not.
There shall be no special treatment, there is just a separation from the abnormally high risk of harm any reasonable and prudent person MUST assume for arrested, jailed and imprisoned law enforcement personnel.
This should apply to those in the 3 levels of government too. Former and current.
It is just the prudent thing to do, since the state is charge with ensuring the safety and health of each person being held by the state.
This presumption MUST be.
