I don't care if she was unconscious. She's culpable for getting in the car with him knowing that he was drunk. I hope she gets just as a severe penalty as he does.

Take the witnesses out of the story and let me know how you think this whole thing ends.

No.

However, Lt. Labrie and Sgt. Brian Patrinelli said they saw a large round indentation in the passenger side of the windshield.

"The window was shattered in this area of identification and officers observed there to be several pieces of what appeared to be long brown/blond hair stuck in the broken windshield in the indentation. This indentation was directly in front of the passenger side seat of the truck," Lt. Labrie's report said.

That's some fine police work there, boys.

Why do I feel like this particular cop might be an abusive boyfriend?

Because he's a cop?
Asshole for doing this to her.

come on, give this guy a break. He just made one bad choice. As a servant of the people we should find it in our hearts to forgive him. After all, he is here to server and protect. Who is going to protect us if he is in jail for such a minor in fraction?! Who? Clearly he would serve us better to be on the streets. I demand justice!

She wasn't driving....and just because a person is drunk doesn't mean that it is readily apparent to those in the vicinity of said drunk. She should be left alone, and just charge the cop.

Minimally Hairy Beer-Powered Simian: She wasn't driving....and just because a person is drunk doesn't mean that it is readily apparent to those in the vicinity of said drunk. She should be left alone, and just charge the cop.

She'll get charges dropped for full cooperation, because the DA needs to nail this guy for appearances since an innocent motorist was horrifically harmed. Just a hunch.

Jesus. the only people I ever arrested were cops.
And when I popped an IA officer, I had to quit.
Got a little too Serpico for me out there.

So If I sould off about dirty cops. or call them pigs.
or generally call for harsher penalties for asshole running around like talibani with guns, taking away civl liberties that are guaranteed to all, I might have a perspective you dont.

I don't know Cruiser from adam12, but hell, you expect some farking intergrity, some human reliability, from a cop.

that farking pig in the wreck ain't it.

Lighten up Francis. I hate pigs more than anyone I've ever met but I can honestly say that cruiser12 has been a damn good sport on fark over the years.

"Mr. Guertin was taken by LifeFlight helicopter to UMass Memorial Medical Center - University Campus in Worcester for serious injuries to his left leg and hip. A UMass spokesman said the hospital had no record of a patient with that name. "

B...b..b...but cops don't arrest other cops! Fark told me that!

FTA:

a man and a woman who came upon the accident scene told police they saw Officer Nadeau and Ms. Hubert switch seats before the police arrived.

The pig was arrested because people on the honest side of the thin blue line saw him and the badges on the other side of the line couldn't keep it quiet.


/// Apparently the witnesses were white, and not easily discredited.

CruiserTwelve: B...b..b...but cops don't arrest other cops! Fark told me that!

They get arrested all the time, don't be fatuous.

Here's what's troubling:

His boss is one of the investigators.
He hasn't suspended him or taken any action, citing the investigation.

"The State Police Collision Analysis & Reconstruction Section is assisting Northbridge police with the investigation. Investigating Northbridge officers are Chief Walter J. Warchol, Lt. Timothy Labrie, Detective Sgt. John Ouillette, Sgt. Brian Patrinelli, and Officers Levon Derkosrofian and Jeffrey White.

Northbridge police issued a press release yesterday afternoon and referred all questions to the chief.

In a supplemental statement released last night, the Northbridge Police Department said it is completing a thorough investigation of the incident and, once completed, the report will be forwarded to the town manager.

"If the investigation confirms that Officer Nadeau engaged in misconduct in violation of the Northbridge Police Department Rules and Regulations, appropriate disciplinary action will be taken," the statement said. "Since the entire incident is under investigation, no additional comments will be made by Chief Warchol at this time." (new window)

and

"Ampagoomian said selectmen may take up the matter once the investigation is complete, but it is too early to discuss any disciplinary action.

"Even though he's a police officer, he still has to have his day in court," Ampagoomian said. "Hopefully as a community, we can come together and learn from this."

Nadeau is due back in Uxbridge District Court on Nov. 4." (new window)


Not even a suspension with pay.

Ms.Maus,
Not even a suspension with pay.

Ohh,Ohh, can I answer this one?

He is being investigated per proper procedures in his department.

Would you want to automatically lose your job for a DWI charge.

Is this the correct answer CruiserTwelve?

Ms.Maus: Ampagoomian said, "Hopefully as a community, we can come together and learn from this."

If you are going to drive drunk, shave your girlfriend's head and pour ketchup on yourself?

AbbeySomeone: Why is she in trouble? He crashed the car, gave her a head injury and she was most likely concussed, in shock, or both and did what he asked her to do.

It's called "squeezing the witness." They'll probably offer to drop or reduce charges in return for her testimony against the cop.

He hasn't been convicted yet.

I would've thought anyone who has to drive for a living would lose their job immediately.

Probably was told that they couldn't release that information due to HIPPA regulations and the journalist just screwed it up in the retelling.

I think in some places EVERYONE in the car will get arrested and get some kinda lame charge on them

Yes.

Note the "even though he is a police officer" part of the statement I posted above. They subtly admit as much and go on to say that they'll do things how they'd like thanks and have a good day, citizens.

hey, I'm not very good at this. How 'bout:.

Of course, this was a "victimless" event..& until he plowed into the other guy, there was no reason to arrest him.
