Jarring videos showing the moments when an Albuquerque police officer was shot several times by his own lieutenant during an undercover operation were released Thursday, following the settlement of a lawsuit that awarded the wounded officer $6.5 million.
"I didn't know it was you!" says Albuquerque Police Department Lt. Greg Brachle moments after putting at least eight bullets into APD Officer Jacob Grant in January 2015.
Video from Brachle's lapel shows him running up to a vehicle that Grant was sitting in with suspects and yelling "gun," then promptly firing his weapon.
"Oh s---, that was Jacob! F--- me!" Brachle is heard saying. "Are you OK?" Brachle asks Grant. "No," Grant answers.

Never mind that the officer missed the morning briefing.  Never mind that the guy he pumped 8 bullets into happened to be an undercover cop.  You do not Serve and Protect the public by running around shooting at criminal suspects before you know what the fuck is going down.

All lives matter, not just cops.

The identity of the suspects has no bearing on whether the officer's conduct was correct.  "I didn't know it was you" lays bare the attitude too common with law enforcement - that shooting a police officer is somehow worse than shooting a civilian.  Cops seem to go into these situations thinking that it's OK to kill the bad guy and they forget that it is not their job to dispense justice.

They should always realize that discharging their weapon will change somebody's life forever, and definitely their own.

 A man accused in a 2006 contract killing in which he went to the wrong house and killed someone with the same name as the intended target has been found guilty of murder and kidnapping charges.


A Geauga (jee-'AW-guh) County judge convicted 46-year-old Chad South of murder and kidnapping charges last week in the death of 31-year-old Daniel Ott in Burton Township.

A woman accused of helping South pleaded guilty Monday to involuntary manslaughter and kidnapping. Authorities say 37-year-old Mindie Stanifer accompanied South to Ott's home.

They were among five people charged criminally for their involvement in Ott's death.

A man spotted yesterday afternoon performing oral sex on a woman lying down on a Florida beach boardwalk told cops that he was an “emergency responder and had to assist the female as it was his duty,”according to a criminal complaint.

A Treasure Island Police Department officer found Tracy Briley, 50, with his shorts at his ankles and “penis out in plain view” around 1 PM Wednesday. Briley, the cop noted, “was performing cunnilingus on a female subject laying on the beach boardwalk.”


Briley, seen at right, told the officer that he was homeless and “had nowhere else to have sex except in public.”


A witness told police that he (and his three-year-old grandson) “observed the act of cunnilingus.”


When Officer Zakariah Dorman arrived on the boardwalk, Briley’s companion--who is not identified in the complaint--was clothed. She was subsequently transported to a local hospital “reference to a medical issue.”


Briley was transported to the county jail, where he is being held in lieu of $10,000 on a felony lewd and lascivious exhibition charge. He was also hit with a misdemeanor trespassing count.
