Towns and townships have no clue as to how to properly vet staff and train police and weed out the crap from the good. Local cops are a poor excuse for well trained and highly supervised police force. You get what you pay for and usually the local governments just can't afford quality people. Time for change. County forces exist all across this country and work well. Shared resources work. Stop thinking small and think larger.

Why bother to have rules if they are not followed by the ones who are to enforce them? Give a badge to any individual and a weapon no less and their ego swells up more then a sponge in the ocean! Do they seriously think that anyone will take the police force seriously now? We are better off taking care of business ourselves and just look at the low life that our children have to look up to. I certainly have no respect for this person. What do we have to look forward to next, this person going to schools and telling children lies?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-63611449457323216102013-08-22T08:22:53.825-04:002013-08-22T08:22:53.825-04:00I am a career police officer and there is absolute...I am a career police officer and there is absolutely no reason to throw the suspect to the ground as was done in this incident. The arbitrator got it wrong period. I would love to hear the FOP's position on this, but you will hear how he deserved representation and the arbitrator has spoken. The FOP must condone this activity by its members. I am sure the FOP leadership is smiling ear to ear with the outcome here, because they just stuck their collective finger in the eye of the evil local government. Take that Fountain Hill, right guys?

He may have been calling Cunningham names, and I'll bet a drunk calls lots of people names. That is no justification for going after him from behind, putting him in a choke hold, spinning him around, and throwing him to the floor, head first. I believe that the only reason Cunningham was not charged wit assault is bc McLaughlin was unwilling to cooperate. <br /><br />Now as bad as that is, Cunningham made matters worse by lying about the incident. If he lies about that, can he be believed about anything? Police officers are professional witnesses. <br /><br />So I disagree with you on this one.

I must have missed that. What I saw was a suspect in custody being given an order that he did not comply with. He began to pull away and was taken to the ground. Basically the same thing the FOP saw. What no one has mentioned here is that the suspect was yelling out very derogatory names to Grady.

In my observation of officer cunningham on the job he was professional and polite and yes the police call was on me the call was a disagreement between myself and another fountain hill officer. Officer cunningham responded to the call and resolved our disagreement. Another time i had the pleasure of dealing with officer cunningham was when my mother was sick and had to be taken to the hospital and again i had the same experience with him as the first he was polite and professional. Yes I've had dealings with most all of fountain hill officers. And the chief in my opinion they are all a fine group of police. Does anyone stop to think maybe it's the person and not the officer. I mean really folks was this so called abuse inflicted on a law abiding person. Well i guess we should all have extensive back round checks and lets see how many of us in our 20s were outsdanding citizens. Being found guilty of something does not make you guilty it just means some person behind a bench said so and we all know judges are always right. NOT. Kudos to you officer Cunningham I'm glad you are back. And before you ask no I'm not related or a friend of this officer I'm just a citizen who had dealings with him. dee bickingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-59077392997671635372013-08-21T16:06:13.629-04:002013-08-21T16:06:13.629-04:00Casting Stones???....Did you see the video....you ...Casting Stones???....Did you see the video....you must joking so you attack the messenger....are you an FOP member?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-63829866676947731792013-08-21T15:58:19.747-04:002013-08-21T15:58:19.747-04:00A lot of people commenting and casting stones on t...A lot of people commenting and casting stones on the opinions of a disbarred lawyer??!!
