… “Cuyahoga sheriff is ordered to keep defendant, a former police officer, safe in custody and segregate him from other prisoners whether it be in isolation or what is classified as a safe range, until he is transferred to ODRC custody,” Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court Judge Timothy McGinty ruled.
“[The sheriff’s office] is further ordered when it delivers this defendant to prison to deliver this court’s order to ODRC and control that this defendant, Willie Sims, is to be imprisoned for his sentence in an environment that protects a former police officer felon.”
Whitlow told McGinty on Thursday that he did not want Sims to go to prison because he wanted the former officer to pay him back his money, Cleveland.com reported.
“How is he going to pay me making 3 cents an hour?” Whitlow asked.
McGinty told Whitlow that his fears he would not see his money were warranted. The officers have forfeited their state police officer licenses and their arrests are connected to a wider investigation into corruption on the police force.
Cops who break the law like this should receive stiffer penalties for abuse of power but that will never happen coz the world is fucked, hopefully somebody gets a chance to shank him in the slam.
I mean it seems like if they had just started off with, “you’re an officer of the law and therefore you will automatically receive the maximum penalty for any crime that you commit” then we wouldn’t be in this mess in the first place.
As it turns out, this attempt at reduction in complexity of Cops and Robbers turns out not to be popular or successful with the public.
Does anyone know of a good 360 degree dash cam that will catch all the traffic stuff and dirty cops?
Two years for multiple armed robberies? Well I guess justice is done here. Let’s just pat ourselves on the back. Way to go prosecutors and Judge!
