Default Venice, FL bad water cop

I still say a good video camera is the best weapon against bad cops. Take a
look at some of the recent cases.

Just the other night a cop was shown pulling a young lady out of her car and
slamming her on the ground, pulling her by her hair .. etc.

This was for a "speeding ticket".

Keep a video camera at the ready. If every boat in Venice, FL had one
onboard, and kept a watch out for this rogue cop.
His behavior will take care of the rest. Just make sure whenever you see
him that you wave your camera at him.

Tell the local authorities that you all are watching him.

Just that alone should be enough to get him a desk,,, in the cellar of the
office.


No police department wants to see their job embarrassed by a dope.

Most boats ,, homes, just about everyone has a video camera ... time to use
it.

Here's some good contact information:

Perhaps most promising is a specific place to file a complaint about
an
employee. The guy causing all the problems was identified by name
yesterday
I believe. Go to the following place to file a complaint concerning
his
actions:

While a single compliant probably won't have much impact, if those
with
experiences do take the time to complain at the correct spot, the
shear
numbers would require some investigation and, if appropriate, change
in the
way things are being done.
