Holding my judgement until there's more information, but there's this little gem in the article.

FTFA: "He asked if I had something to drink, I said I had a glass of wine earlier at the Muckleshoot. I'm pregnant and can't drink," she said.

 Something tells me that if she's drank once during her pregnancy, she's done it plenty of other times.

FTFA: Thompson's fiance said she's been stressed out and depressed ever since the incident and she miscarried last week.

Maybe, and this is JUST an idea here, it's not a good idea to smoke pot and drink while you're pregnant. It tends to do bad things to anything growing in your womb, lady.

CruiserTwelve: Here's a bold prediction: a bunch of people will come in this thread and assume the cop is guilty just because she said so.

Based on the history of law enforcement, assuming cops are guilty of misconduct is the safest bet.

Here's a bold prediction: thanks to guys almost exactly like CruiserTwelve, there is absolutely no way we'll ever know if he was actually guilty.  Whether he was or not, the first bold prediction of the thread will be the correct one.

/fark yourself
/go

Why I no longer give cops the benefit of the doubt.

1. "Technical difficulties" with the dash cam which would prove the cop acted inappropriately happens far too often to be considered reasonable.
2. Officials refusing to investigate cases of misconduct until a third party video shows up.
3. Stop and Frisk
4. Misrepresenting Terry stops as free reign to do what they please when the courts meant it as a limit on when they could search.
5. The "blue line" that protects bad cops.
6. "World's biggest gang" attitude.
7. Secret hearing for misconduct that prevents the public from seeing what's really going on.

Citation needed. I'm kinda willing to go along with no smoking pot, but vaporizing might be ok. But really you are going to say a single glass of wine a day is bad for your baby? Because that has been disproven. Now I'm not talking about a fishbowl full of sangria, but an honest single glass of wine, especially with food, won't hurt anyone.

There is nothing wrong with an occasional glass of wine.

Any specific reason you are claiming she was smoking pot?

Can we agree it is a bad idea to have police do their own internal investigations, considering the blue line is a very real thing in lots of police departments?

Cruiser twelve thinks police are more honest than the average joe.

Despite overwhelming video evidence to the contrary and complete lack of police turning each other in for things like excessive force.

It just occurred to me: we shouldn't assume the officers are male. That's sexist. (And not as hot.)

For that matter, "an officer groping a woman" could describe a female officer fondling herself. And there's nothing wrong with that, is there?

DERP!

What's wrong with groping a handcuffed pregnant lady? My wife never complains.

homelessdude:We could go on all day like this. The fact is that it does happen to a degree that it is not a rare event. I know there are a lot of great cops out there. I just wish they would also step up and police their own.

Too often the Blue Wall of Silence has assisted in allowing these incidents to continue. And not just incidents of sexual misconduct either.

You know what happens when they do try to police themselves?

Actually fark is pretty balanced, try having a reasonable discussion on reddit that does include popular groupthink.

liam76: There is nothing wrong with an occasional glass of wine.

When has it been demonstrated that drinking any alcohol is safe during pregnancy? Unless something has massively changed in the last 10 years.

Of course, it's also heart-warming to know that the the words "I smell pot" automatically trump the 4th Amendment.

Once again, any reason you are not only assuming the police officer is telling the truth (smelled pot) and the pregnant women must have smoked it? Is anybody who calls out a police officer for breaking the law a druggie?

It's like a horror movie when dealing with police, there was a sort of points system.

She clearly wasn't a virgin.
She was drinking when pregnant, negative points.
Alleged drug activity makes her more unsavory.
Prior criminal activity wasn't present, so she isn't being dismissed.
Clearly she wasn't a felon with neck tattoos, or the cop could have anally raped her over the hood of the police car and it would have been her fault.

Expect CruiserTwelve to come back to this thread way after the party is over, say something to the effect of 'I know what you are but what am I?' to the easy questions, ignore the hard questions he does not want to answer, and call it a day.
