More than 170 felony cases could be impacted by Aurora police scandal

- The photos have grabbed headlines worldwide. The actions of four Aurora police officers have garnered more than 4 million signatures on Change.org and now the impact of those actions may have further impact in Colorado.
Cops who have been FIRED should not be allowed to work at another Department, period.
Fired from a department should end their law enforcement certification. With the only way to restore it would be to reapply to the academy and redo training.
But if there was such a grievous violation, then the certification board could just bar them for life.
*but another option instead of trying to strip certification, is to simply charge them! A felony conviction ends that certification!
The internal investigations need to be stopped. Too often a cop, that deserves felony charges, is simply allowed to resign to avoid criminal prosecution.
@@dericksmith2137 Human Decency should come naturally. A sense of right and wrong and a high quality of Honesty. Too many Officers keep repeating the same problems as they go from one department to another. Firing / prison and loss of Pension etc would certainly be a deterrent from this unjust behavior.
You have to decertify them.
That's why he resigned.
Thats the scary 😟 part they will work as officers in another state
NO MORE QUALIFIED IMMUNITY.. THATS WHAT THIS STORY TELLS US ..
I’m not sure how qualified immunity is a factor here.
@@gawainethefirst QUALIFIED IMMUNITY= PAID LYING PIGS 170 CASES COULD B IMPACTED BY THESE LYING THUG GANG MEMBERS.. DO U KNOW THATS A PICTURE THE PIGS TOOK AT A FUNERAL OF PERSON THEY MURDERED.
And not just for police. NO qualified immunity for judges and politicians either
@@ivanzed AND TERM LIMITS SO WE DONT HAV ELDERLY TRYING TO RUN A COUNTRY..
Qualified Immunity is not a law, it's a so-called "doctrine". It actually an illegitimate practice. It was instituted in 1960s (during civil rights movement) by an all white US Supreme Court to shield police from prosecution and lawsuits when they took action against civil rights (Constitutional Rights) workers, of all things. Government employees are required by law take an oath to defend and uphold the US Constitution. Only way to combat it is to inform the public and educate judges and lawyers. Why judges and lawyers need educating? You would think they would know the law... but they are stuck in a mental quagmire of procedures. Qualified Immunity is not a law. You break the law, you face must face judgement.
How to find bad cops fast. Look at the number of charges that had to be dropped. False charges are indication of lack of law knowledge, lying and frivolous use of police powers. Another reason, to discourage making of false charges. That's 2 misconduct charges per false charge, and proof the cops doesn't know the law. Law enforcement that doesn't know the law, just some cosplayers, sometimes criminals to dress up like police officers.
Morale Compass, True North is Truth and Justice.
Here we are 13 months later and another scandal with one of their own pistol whipping a man 15 times to the head while he was on the ground and also holding a gun to the citizens head stating "You move and I will shoot you", while at the same time giving the citizen instructions to move his hands.
This would have to be the dirtiest, out of control PD in the US.
IT IS!!! This is August 2021 and after ANOTHER incident the corrupt Chief is AGAIN claiming that this is "not who we are". YES that is exactly who you are. That dimwitted chief should have been fired last year. She is 100% responsible for the behavior of the cops who work for HER.
Saying that bothers remotes is this is why we need to stop these police departments and they should be defunded and plus they end up suing the city what needs to happen is they need to see these officers for their pensions and the unions that support them and in and stop funding the police because they're nothing but not teasing uniforms so defund the police and that should be mandatory to United States and its Austin be that instead of suing the city they should take these offers suspensions and Sue the unions and that would stop all of that because we're the ones that playing for this and they still aren't held accountable and have them is still on the force so defund the police departments throughout the United
I am betting on Chicago PD. They get trained to believe everyone is the enemy.
This department is ripe for dissolution
@@XeviousHound that's more typical of police forces than not.
How many times is this police chief going to go on tv saying "this is not us". It obviously is you. Every 6 months a new horrendously horrible atrocity is being explained away by this chief.
SHE IS THE PROBLEM. I would say that after a dozen similar illegal violent acts committed by cops who work for HER that SHE needs to be fired.
Look into her past. She was acting chief when an officer passed out behind the wheel and got special treatment.
@@vonakenyon7981 - she's part of the problem. Aurora PD is a criminal gang. The problem is more than her.
Defund the police department's do you do the whole United States also stopped allowing these cities to be sued when you should sue for these officers pensions and Sue the unions that support them because we're the one that's paying for it the taxpayers and that's why they keep on doing it because you're not taking their pensions take their pensions and Soother unions that support this type of mess but I say that all police departments to the United States should be defunded because they're nothing but not season KKK in uniforms
Rogue cops, bad apples. BS it’s all of them!
I love how the supervisors act like they know nothing about their subordinates criminal activities. They know! They e been doing the same for years!!
Supervisors are the problem!!
Thats Right!!!! Spot On!!!!
All because of a photo, are u crazy those white people shout be in prison, they are probably working in Denver.
They also drive drunk all over aroura and pass out, nothing not one thing happens to them no wonder they all got clean records that goes for so call law enforcement and kangaroo court judges.
Yeah supervisors are part of the problem
Not a few bad apples. This is a culture of disrespect and abuse.
The whole orchard is dirty.
Exactly - you don't behave like this if you are afraid of causing outrage and/or losing your job.
The sickness runs deep. Celebrating the murder of an innocent young man very shameful.
Pigs are 'trained' to randomly choose someone to brutalize as a means of "stress relief".
Poor kid !! RIP
@@cementer7665 Just like the slave patrollers to date still the same and there institution's the CHAINS.
Right way to protect and serve..
It just goes to show how many police officers join a department NOT to protect and to serve as they say, BUT to hurt and abuse.
And kill.
Yupp
Lock em up..
No they sign up to protect and serve....themselves
But the community is expected to trust cops like this? Nah I don’t think so. I wonder how many times these officers words was held up in court as facts and truth. Smh a da*m shame.
The cops have overstepped their bounds for hundreds of years. Finally they are being held accountable.
Oog
And all because everyone now has a camera in their pocket!!!
Are they really though? They get a slap on the wrist. Most often a paid vacation while an internal investigation determines there was no wrong doing. Sometimes it goes to the DA where the charges will likely be dismissed. The worst that most cops will face is being fired, and even then they can just go get hired at another department. I don't call that being held accountable. A handful of convictions does not mean accountability for a thousand killed by police every year (some of them are legit justified) or the tens of thousands of non-lethal cases of brutality by those who are hired to protect the public.
Yet NOTHING is ever done, except to move the REAL domestic terrorists from one department to another in a never ending game of "musical badges"
@@cementer7665 never seen a cop burn down a city, oog boi
County Prosecuting Attorneys can be corrupt. I have personal experience.
The problem with the position of 'prosecuting attorney' is they get that job, and subsequent judge positions, based on their conviction rate. That's ripe for corruption in violating the Constitutional rights of Americans to a fair trial. If they lie, cheat, and steal for more convictions, they get promotions.
While I commend her actions in this case, she was acting chief when the officer passed out behind the wheel and got to walk away with special treatment. She isn't innocent of treating officers differently.
I totally agree. She’s just as dirty for their sins as well for covering it up. You can’t clean this one up in a news conference asks sweep it under the rug. If you all have a venue to make them accountable we’d could weed out what you deem as Good officers.. exposed for what they are. If you say nothing and know about it all, you’re just as guilty
Aurora cops are consistently bad. Then again, Loveland seems to want to be in in the competition.
It’s the same all up and down the front range. It’s systemic.
What a department. Chief keeps saying this is not us. OMG
Aurora PD: "It's really unfair that we keep being judged by our actions!"
Isn't it strange how she couldn't trust them until after the petition was signed.
WHY IS THERE SO DAMN MANY CASES LIKE THIS ON UA-cam ALL FROM COLORADO
I didn't see this one. Like i said a dozen other times. THE POLICE SOUTH OF FORT COLLINS DOWN THROUGH COLORADO SPRINGS YOU HAVE NOTHING BUT A BUNCH OF THUGS . IT'S A GANG THEY HAVE GOING ON.
Cops in colorado are pretty bad, most of them are just assholes.
And Florida and Texas and Mississippi and...
I remember when I first heard this story. I was sickened. What they did to that young man was truly horrible. Have any of these murderers been charged?
As of September 2021 the cops & paramedics involved have been indicted.
@@ogkg5875 Good.
No they weren't charged the charges were dropped apparently they did nothing wrong even though the kid did nothing wrong
@@susuileamura8736 Disgusting.
Nothing puts a smile on my face like shaming police, the firing of police and the jailing of police.
This happens when cops are truly comfortable in thier work place come on it's obvious they have done stuff in front of rank sad but true
As I have said time and time again if we take qualified immunity away from these public servants. Then all of this stuff would disappear and quit happening. As soon as word gets around to the blue line TRYANTS.
It would maybe slow down but they've been conditioned to used violence as a tool
QI has been removed now in Colorado. How long do you figure it will take before we see this stuff quit happening?
your right but there should be a law where citizens are allowed to fight back against these cowardly bastards. and give them the beatings that they give citizens.
@@henrylloyd7690 At the very least they need to stop charging people with assaulting officer and resisting when they are just defending themselves from an illegal beating. It is absolutely stupid to expect somebody to just lay down peacefully while being beaten to death.
I hate Polis and Hickenlooper... But Polis did sign a law, the first state to do so, saying that police are now held liable up to $25,000 for law suites against them.
I wonder what universe these cops live in that makes what they mocking a young mans death. That they caused is o k. Aurora has a real problem with the culture within the aurora p. D.
It is the CHIEF who should be fired immediately. She has NO idea how to control her cops. Going on TV as if she is shocked every time this happens is BS. It is exactly who the Aurora Dept is because of HER.
@@vonakenyon7981 well you know sh it rolls downhill...... so for them to think that their behavior is ok it's because SHE ALLOWED IT TO HAPPEN!!!!! SHE'S OBVIOUSLY JUST AS CORRUPT AND ROTTEN AS THEY ARE........ SHE JUST HASN'T GOT CAUGHT YET!!!!!
The only way to end it is 2A.
@@gaymalewitch AAAAAGREED!!!!!! ALWAYS OPEN CARRY AND DEFEND YOURSELF WHEN THEY TRY TO UNLAWFULLY MANHANDLE YOU AND VIOLATE YOUR RIGHTS!!!!!
I never thought I would say this, but this whole PD needs to be defunded
Yes absolutely
Spread the news nationwide so these officer's don't get hired right away at another department as is so often the case! Sickening but true!
You'd have to wonder about the true moral compass of cops who behave like this.
They obviously have no consideration for the community at all.
Yet, they demand you respect them.
They can eat shit, 100%. Unless they're German and they like that
We have heard "high sounding words" like "no one is above the law"! But anyone with qualified immunity certainly is. All qualified immunity for any public official needs to stop immediately!! All it seems to be used for is allowing official misconduct to run rampant with impunity.
There are definitely people who are the law, and who are above the law. Cops and judges, and rich and connected people, respectively (that means in order). But good people exist, who seek to do good for their communities.
Shut this department down. Clearly there is a problem.
Thank God for Denver 7 ABC News. You guys are a great news department and all the people in Denver owe you guys a heartfelt Thank You. Keep up the great work you’re doing.
Hope these bad cops can't go elsewhere for employment.
Two of them are already police officers somewhere else
@@ExiledByForce1 that's ridiculous, but I can believe it.
"We're ashamed, sickened and angry" -- That our brothers allowed and displayed our true attitude towards citizens!😡
Now, look into Hickenlooper and Polis... also, criminals that abuse/abused their power.
How heartless for anyone to do this. Then post it on social media for his mother to see 😢😢
The public does not need mental health it is the police and the sheriffs that needs mental health. The police chiefs get their talking points from conservative media and liberal media. We need to get rid of all sheriffs and police chiefs and start over with a governing board Who know the constitution and the amendments and honor their oath elected by the people over the sheriffs and police departments. These tyrants are out of control
Do you mean the conservative media and the less conservative media? If there were liberal media, we never would have invaded Iraq, Bernie would not have been marginalized by the media, and the War on Drugs would just be a memory.
The amount of Aurora PD cops who quit last year must have wanted to avoid scrutiny it seems to me. The amount of abuses is being seen by the whole world
Lost a good paying job and could have established himself in the community as a good officer by embracing the people. Speak to the people with respect, kindness and understanding. Help the young, elderly and poor. Instead he would rather punish, hurt and incarcerate.
That sounds lame. He was a asshole from the start
They need to fire this Police Chief, she is terrible
Years later this same chief still telling us it's not a problem with in this department and people are still dying.
When the police make an arrest misdemeanor or felony, it is the District Attorney's office that ultimately makes the final decision based on the evidence whether charges are filed or dismissed, if any cases come into question because of the action of these three idiots or any other idiots that were given a badge, ultimately the charges are filed by the district attorney office and they should be held accountable and responsible for not doing their job by ensuring that the public rights are protected and not violated by The Thin Blue Line
That chief needs to be fired at once!! Every time HER thugs get caught illegally, violently attacking citizens she goes on TV and says "this is not who we are." BS. This is exactly who you are. She only 'apologizes' when they get caught. The rest of the time she covers for them. Otherwise they wouldn't keep doing it. Aurora PD is the worst PD in the US. 100% her fault.
Instead of qualified immunity, the govt employees should have to request immunity based on their actions in the case. A case by case analysis which includes the history of the officer.
They should have to carry their own Insurance too, that way the tax payers won't have to keep paying the lawsuits. I bet that would change police attitude pretty fast.
I'll say it here also: When you hire sadistic psychopaths, predatory sociopaths, narcissistic maniacs with fragile egos and serial abusers as cops, what you get are domestic terrorists, and a LOT of messy cases.
What a group of wacky and wild kids!!!!!!!! They always say their thoughts and prayers are with them, and “this is not who we are”.
If this is not who they are, *why is this how they are acting?*
Babylon is Babylon it's burning 🔥
Those cases should be impacted & reviewed.
what city are they working in now?
That's a good question. You know they're somewhere working in law enforcement.
Coming to a town near you.
Floriduh will hire them.
Disgusting to be smiling after taking a sweet young mans life
I'm handicap and I've had their power abused on me more than once I wish I could speak with this attorney
Glad I don't live in Denver or the surrounding communities.... Pending cases? What about the preceding cases that can now be called into question? One bad officer, let alone 4 can derail an entire justice system. How many of their cases are just, and how many are BS. We may never know, because so may will be dismissed or appealed, for nothing more than the veracity of the officer's testimony. This is why you need to weed them out ASAP.
From this incident, Colorado recently passed to end qualified immunity and remove the certs from rogue officers. REST IN PEACE SON.
It disgusts me that the police will advertise the wrongs of a suspect but hide the wrongs of cop, that's not justice
We're ashamed, sickened and shocked we we're caught.
I live in the UK, and I swear I hear about heinous misconduct and crimes by the Aurora PD every goddam week.
And now those officers and the paramedics are being charged with murder. I wonder how that affects those other cases
This is the mindset of too many cops. Police departments, as we know them, need to be disolved. It's time that public servants become just that- public servants.
P O L I C E /// FIRST DO NO HARM ///
We don't expect all cops to tell the truth all the time. Just when they're on duty.
What do the photos reveal? Please report the ENTIRE story for those who do not reside in Colorado.
They need to set up a system so that cops like this can never be a LEO in any part of the country.
They have the audacity to appeal their termination wth.
"We're ashamed, we're sickened and we're angry." Bullshit!
“Police are not infallible”-gee, thanks for telling us that. I’m sure that everyone thought they were
Those officers need life in prison without parole!!
Thank you for amplifying the scope of the problem!
Those photos didn't tarnish an image. That image was beyond tarnished long ago.
This is still the most evil thing I’ve ever seen
Aurora PD has had lots of UA-cam videos on them. Abuse of citizens is common with them.
I'm so proud of that police chief.Shes doing what should have been done decades ago in every city in the USA
District Office rushed to cover up the incident but the media attention was just too much. They have to throw someone under the bus
Time to share this one!!!
The district attorney looks like he is also a crook.
Why don’t these police departments let the citizens pick the police for the department after reading their records from other police departments before hiring them
If you think it’s just a few bad apples, you haven’t been paying attention.
What did they do, all it said there was a picture. A picture of what? Every time you turn around, you see this chief of police saying the same damn thing.. she needs to be fired right along with the rest of them
What in the hell is wrong with the police in Aurora Colorado? The most vile, abusive acts seem to come from there.
Intense Psych exams for every cop .. NATIONWIDE !
And DRUG TESTS, FOR ALL GOVERNMENT WORKERS!!
Oops, imagine that.
I don’t understand what’s going on here. I live just above Cincinnati and of course I’ve heard nothing of this. What did the cops do? Did they destroy somebody’s memorial
as long as cops have qualified immunity and similar protections this means nothing.
Gee i wonder why the cops won't say anything they don't know how to tell the truth but they will be working for another police department within a months time
Seems this chief doesn't know what's going on in her department they should be getting her out to
Ain't no way for them to not to know about them.
The courts will not allow these officers integrity to be questioned those pictures will never be allowed in front of a jury everyone does plea deals now anyway so they will move and be a respected police officers in the next town
Tony…..please keep up the pressure and maybe you can force the correct issues. Keep up the great work.
I would love to have that attorney handling that because I would love to talk to him about the 30 police reports and out of five of them attempt on my life another dealing with the double homicide they allowed to go by I would love to talk to this federal attorney I would need his help greatly
People should know that the fees for the high profile defense attorney are actually paid by you …….
Well was anything ever done on old cases?
It is very simple to resolve this issue you don't have to remove the cases all you have to do is do a proper investigation if you found malfeasance on the officer's part then whatever that individual was charged with whatever time that he was given in jail that the officer served that time all 173 cases calculated together that that officers the time
I wish I would have become a cop, I wouldn't have a felony right now
Asking nicely to be treated humanely is not working for us
Seems that the Aurora police department needs policing
Ohh geez I just saw her for something else that happened last week. She is gonna get a Oscar soon you watch !
It's very rare that a cop tells the truth, not the opposite.
What about past cases?
Oh and the district attorney is gonna feign ignorance
If people only knew how the training continues after the academy. Trained to visit people’s rights. Turn off body cameras, blind spots if people only knew.
What do the pictures unveil?
They were at the victim's memorial when they took the picture. Evil.
The favorite acronym of denver and Aurora Colorado Police is N.H.I. ( No Humans Involved) that pertains to anyone not a cop.
I wish they STARTED with telling what the actual scandal actually was about. Instead we are left in the dark with nothing shown but two seemingly innocent photos and people shouting it is (or was) soo bad, and no idea what they are talking about. I think this is the most idiotic case of non-information I ever saw from a news channel.
The popo killed an autistic dude that hadn't committed a crime, then they investigated themselves and found no wrongdoing. As for the significance of the two photos, who knows. They certainly didn't tell us.
It wont stop until its stopped! Police officers need to be held more accountable. There are some very good officers out there. But still they need to have their cameras on as long as they have their uniforms on. I honestly believe that it has to do with the officers who have shot someone putting pressure on and bragging to the ones who haven't. So to feel equal their first instinct is to pull their weapons and fire away. Its obvious that when they go out on shots fired call and have a suspect in their sites they all are firing on that person. They need to be retrained and have it that one or at the most 2 officers firing their weapon. I know that it sounds easier said than done? But really how many does it take to put sone down?
From 2 years ago - now mostly forgotten and most cops just carry on with their contempt of the public...
Find it every day in the news, on social media.
Lack of ACCOUNTABILITY
Lack of SUPERVISION
Sickening very very SICKENING,,, these people should be arrested and jailed without bond Immediately
