This article is garbage, and misses a number of key points as well as doesn't fact check the police .
Try this publicola one
This shit pisses me off. They better be calling for his fucking badge. Fucking pig
Should be calling for his fucking head.
He needs to be arrested, convicted, and permanently disqualified from serving in law enforcement.
I mean, that shits blatant vehicular manslaughter. He should get a decade+ in jail. We know he won't though.
Good call! Friendly reminder that KOMO is a right wing propaganda machine.

Typical KOMO/Sinclair media fare, then
What does limit value mean?…public hangings of corrupt people would fix this so fast.
Limited value when he's talking about her age screams sex trafficking to me. He should be investigated.
Who do you think is going to decide who is corrupt? Why wouldn't that position be filled by a corrupt individual?
I do think a lot of people already behave because they are afraid of the consequences. And we use peers to decide their fate. A mini mob if you will.
I understand what you are getting at though. I’m just not sure tolerating behavior that this story is any better. Is putting him away forever any better than the death penalty?
How?
We can't even stop police from continuing to do their job after they murder people, how are we going to give them the death penalty? And how is the state publicly murdering people going to discourage officers of the state from murdering people?
I can understand the feeling of anger but public hanging? Come on. People who earnestly want public hanging back are troglodytic fascists.

Please move to Russia/China. We don't do that in the civilized world. We're better than that.
Edit: yes please downvote me for being against cruel and unusual punishment. Show everyone what kind of person you really are. I hope you get wrongfully convicted and sentenced to death so you can see how regressive your barbaric views are first hand.
I dunno about the other 2, but I downvoted you for the xenophobic aside.
Calling authoritarian governments authoritarian is not xenophobia.
Komo is owned by sinclair, the right wing mega corp that owns hundreds of local news stations in different markets. The same company of "this is very dangerous to our democracy fame" that forces local anchors to read top down editorial from corporate.
Its no wonder they are kind to cops. Im surprised the article didn't have a thin blue line background.
