Heroes of the week: Body cam footage shows Vegas cops hiding in hallway while shooter mows people down 1 floor above

Boy, they are real tough guys when they are pushing and bossing women around. When they are completely in control and have the upper hand they sure do show their ass.  But the problem here? That is the description of a typical bully. And that is what most of them are. They have more in common with thugs and wife beaters than the common citizen.       Look at the coward that sat outside the Broward Florida school while children were being mowed down. I am sure that when he was in complete control of the situation he was a real hard ass, swaggering around with his vest and gun.    But without back up and 40 other cops…… He was just a frightened bully that was too afraid to act.

“Newly released body camera footage shows Las Vegas police officers pausing for several minutes in the hallway of the Mandalay Bay hotel — as mass shooter Stephen Paddock guns down 58 people on the floor directly above them.”

“Holy sh-t that’s rapid fire,” officer Cordell Hendrex utters in the chilling video, reacting to Paddock’s gunfire — which he later described as “like thunder all around and above us,” according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

The officer and his first-day trainee, Elif Varsin, stayed on the 31st floor for four-and-a-half minutes, even as they heard the shooter’s position reported as “the 32nd floor, room 135.”

“I’m inside the Mandalay Bay on the 31st floor,” Hendrex says in the video. “I can hear the automatic fire coming from one floor ahead, one floor above us.”

In a report, he later wrote that he “froze right there in the middle of the hall” after being terrified.

Three armed Mandalay Bay officers were with the Metro cops during the incident.

Las Vegas criminal defense attorney Louis Schneider said Nevada law protects the officers from liability — unless they were moving slowly on purpose.

“In the limited context of this video, it looks like they’re moving deliberately slow, but that could be for safety purposes,” Schneider told the paper. “But if you wait on an active shooter, you end up using a lot of body bags.”

The footage was the eighth batch of records released since an April Nevada Supreme Court decision compelled the Metropolitan Police Department to hand over records. Media organizations sued for the records in the aftermath of the Oct. 1 bloodbath — in which Paddock broke a window in his hotel room and opened fire on thousands of music festival attendees.”

Scumbag cop busted after lying on his personal history statement

How about that? His former employer forced him to retire and then sealed his records until a search warrant was required. The typical cover up for one of their own. Only problem here is that this scum really pissed someone off and they turned him in.   Seems that Sheriff Capers is one of the few good apples still left out there.

“A San Jacinto County sheriff’s deputy is facing criminal charges after he allegedly falsified his state-mandated personal history statement used when he sought employment with the department.

According to San Jacinto County Sheriff Greg Capers, the deputy, Michael Lansing Flynt, was hired in January 2017 as a lieutenant for the Patrol Tactical Unit after retiring from Humble Police Department.

“He completed the application and personal history statement required for all applicants by the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE). In that government document, Flynt stated ‘no’ to issues concerning his former employment with Humble PD,” a statement from the sheriff contends.

On June 4, 2018, the sheriff’s office received information from an anonymous tipster that claimed Flynt was a suspect in numerous crimes at Humble Police Department, according to the statement.”

“Upon learning the allegations from the tipster, Sheriff Capers ordered his detective division to reopen the background investigation on Flynt. The detectives soon learned why the criminal issues were absent during the background investigation,” the statement continues.

Capers claims administrators with the City of Humble “sealed any references to Flynt’s background, even going as far as to threaten any employee from discussing the issues.”

In their investigation, SJC detectives obtained a search warrant for Flynt’s personnel files and found that he had been the subject of several criminal investigations and was forced to retire.

The case was presented to 411th District Court Judge Kaycee Jones who signed an arrest warrant for Flynt. He is charged with four state jail felonies and one misdemeanor crime.

Flynt was terminated from the San Jacinto County Sheriff’s Office on June 20 and surrendered to the Liberty County Jail on June 21.”

Heroes of the week: Video of Oregon cops beating homeless man

“The arrest and punches were caught on camera by KGW. The footage shows Thompson punching 28-year-old Kevin Straw in the head at least 14 times after Thompson and other deputies took Straw to the ground near a post office in Detroit.

The sheriff’s office said Straw was taken into custody because he kept yelling while emergency responders were coordinating a search for two missing fishermen and refused to stay away when told to leave at least twice by deputies. The fishermen, Josh Cox and Corbin Cox, were found safe later that day.”
