I wonder how many times in the past they got away with it?  I wonder how many other cops do it so casually...probably thousands.

Utter pieces of human garbage.

 

BISCAYNE PARK, Fla. (WSVN) — Federal agents have arrested a former police chief and two other officers accused of trying to frame a 16-year-old for several burglaries.

Officers from several law enforcement agencies participated in the arrest of former Biscayne Park Police Chief Raimundo Atesiano and former officers Charlie Dayoub and Raul Fernandez, Monday.

According to the Department of Justice, Atesiano is accused of encouraging Dayoub and Fernandez to arrest a 16-year-old with no basis in order to keep up the appearance of 100 percent clearance rate of reported burglaries in June 2013.

An indictment for the arrest said Dayoub and Fernandez gathered information and completed arrest affidavits for four unsolved burglaries. The two reportedly included a false narrative that an investigation revealed the teen had committed the four burglaries.

Atesiano, Dayoub and Fernandez reportedly knew there was no evidence and no lawful basis to arrest and charge the teen with the crimes.

On July 9, 2013, Atesiano announced that his department had a 100 percent clearance rate for burglaries at a meeting of the City Council for The Village of Biscayne Park.

Atesiano, Dayoub and Fernandez were charged with conspiracy to violate civil rights under color of law. If convicted, they each face 11 years in prison.

I'm sure their union rep will work out a paid administrative leave in lieu of jail time. That or a Presidential pardon and back pay.

Here's what I don't get: in the US Army before I received my commission as an officer I was clearly informed and instructed the penalties for officers committing violations of the UCMJ were more severe and, in adjudication, almost always held to the maximum allowable than standard rank and file.  Heavy handed punishment against officers who violated the legal code was appreciated by the Officer corps because it helped keep the ranks clean of scumbags.

 

Why can't we have increased penalty codes that are specialized for all public servants?

You think that officers of the court have the same respect for law and rule that military officers generally do? C'mon man!

Because the military (usually) functions with honor? Police, their reps (probably more important), and politicians aren't known for functioning with honor....

Who's gonna vote for that ?  The people in power who craft the legislation ?  That's like why do they keep getting pay raises.
