Arlington TX Cop Kills Black Partner, Mojo – Correctional Officer Edu

They can call it whatever they want, but Officer Ramsour of the Arlington Police Department killed his K9 partner, Mojo. Not with a gun or some other weapon, or even his hands, but by allowing Mojo to continue to try to please him when the scorching heat begged for extreme caution. A dead K9, and in all likelihood, Officer Ramsour will see no consequences for his actions. More likely, he will treated as an innocent victim.

Law enforcement officers have different insurance needs than civilians. It comes with the high-risk, high-touch job. There is a gray area when it comes to legal assistance and personal liability. If an officer is sued, does the department cover these costs, or will the officer be responsible?
We’ve discussed the topic of personal liability insurance with lawyers versed in insurance laws and those who specialize in law enforcement needs to help clarify what your department covers, whether a police officer sho…

There are countless circumstances where law enforcement professionals can come under scrutiny, and in many cases they can be held accountable for any misconduct, negligence and other professional errors. When the police fail to perform their duties or do so negligently, abuse their power, or use excessive force, officers may be liable for any damages that result of real or perceived transgressions. One thing however, that police personnel are not generally able to be held accountable for is the failure to protect one individual or their property from another. There is no official constitutional duty to protect one average citizen from another, and while police officials do their best to ensure public safety there are only two circumstances when law enforcement can be held legally responsible for any failure to protect an individual.
These two circumstances are referred to as the special-relationship and the state-created danger situations. If alleged and proven, either of these claims may establish that an officer or division in question had the constitutional duty to protect the wronged individuals..
The Special Relationship theory surrounds the notion that when police take an individual into custody, they consequently assume the responsibility to take reasonable steps to provide for the individual’s safety and well-being against known and foreseeable risks. This kind of claim is often made against corrections officials, but it may also be made against local police who interact with individuals in custody. A common example is that arresting officers have a responsibility to place the arrested party in the vehicle and secure their seatbelt in the event that the detainee cannot do so for themselves. Should an officer fail to do so and the individual is injured as a result, the arresting officer can be held liable for any injuries or damages suffered by the individual in custody.
The more common allegations of failure to protect come from claims based on the “state-created danger” theory of liability. These claims allege that someone who was not in police custody suffered injury or death from another individual or a natural hazard as a result of police action or inaction. When police or law enforcement personnel become involved in an incident and their action or errors place an individual or group of individuals in even greater peril, police could face liability for creating that greater danger.

How to lift a truck. This video shows you how to lift your truck with torsion bars also known as a T bar lift.
This tbar lift is done on a 2001 Mazda B3000 / Ford Ranger. You will need an alignment afterwards because of the angle change in the suspension. Tighten the tbar screw to lift the truck, loosen to lower the truck. I got a 1.5in lift and my C/V joint angle is only at a 5 degree angle so it should be fine with minimal wear.

FULL STORY
A man with a gun opened fire on police officers in Baton Rouge on Sunday, injuring at least seven — including three who are feared dead, an official said.
Police received a call of “suspicious person walking down Airline Highway with an assault rifle,” a source with knowledge of the investigation told CNN. When police arrived, the man opened fire.
The remaining officers are hospitalized in critical condition, the source said.
The victims were from Baton Rouge Police Department as well as East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff’s Office, another official said.
“This is an unspeakable and unjustified attack on all of us at a time when we need unity and healing.
