Cop Vows To Hunt Down Punk Who Successfully Pressed Brutality Charges Against His Partner
August 18, 2008 | Issue 44.34
DETROIT—Christopher O’Dell, a 16-year veteran of the Detroit Police Department, told reporters Monday that he will not rest until he exacts revenge on the man who got his long-time partner, Officer Rick Noonan, 38, suspended for using excessive force during an arrest at a peaceful demonstration last March. “That punk is going to get what’s coming to him again,” O’Dell said. “If it’s the last thing I do, I’ll make sure that scumbag is taken off the streets, not properly informed of his Miranda rights, chained to a radiator beneath the station, and kept awake for days of interrogation without being formally charged.” O’Dell added that the suspect in question is going to wish he had never filed a complaint for sustaining a concussion and broken collarbone after O’Dell is finished breaking his leg and giving him a concussion.

It’s filed under “funny” as its an article from The Onion, a satirical magazine and website. If you peruse the site, you’d see I frequently post links and material regarding police brutality and abuse of power. I don’t find anything funny about the increasing militarization of the country’s police agencies, as well as their collective arrogance as they trample all over the Constitution in the name of “public safety.”
Maybe I need a satire category? I’m relatively new to the blogging world, so I haven’t necessarily nailed down all my categories.
