  1. Was the cop held accountable hell no he was not that's why are taxes ate so high because of shit like this. Abolish qualified ammunity and hold cops accountable for actions and this will stop happening.

  2. This is truly the modern day, police officer. What few good cops we do have out there are truly in the darkness because of so many officers performing their duties in such an unresponsible manner to say the least.

  3. I've travelled a lot and everywhere in the world I considered police to be my friends. I often asked them for directions or information. Pure logic. If you see a cop in an uniform, you know he is from there, there is no guesswork, besides, they know everything. On a few occasions they even gave me a ride, even in some "strange" or "rogue" countries, including in Moscow, but not in US. I almost got arrested when I asked a cop fir directions.

  5. …we need many more of these types of jury findings and monetary awards….drive the cities into bankruptcy and an inability to pay their insurance costs…until they are forced to improve the recruitment quality, the training and the accountability for lawful behavior by their employees. Ten million may not be much to the leadership of Dearborn…but ten million here, ten million there starts to add up…eh?

  6. So the tax payers are out ten million, Officer gets a vacation with pay. We get it, and that is why Law enforcement does this. If the money came out of their retirement checks this would stop.

  7. Dumb lawyer, can you tell the difference between a satanic cult and a paganism cult ? If you can't, you're not my lawyer, and you don't know Jake crap by the way Marijuana is still a druggie and always does meth.

  8. Dearborn Police, well, Dearborn, Michigan in itself should be your key (trigger) reference as to “corruption & rogue cops”! It’s arrogant & ignorant, tyrant, jack boot thug cops like this guy who apparently are of low IQ & are part of the gang of “Thin Blue Line Jack Boot Thug Club gangster cops”. Is it any wonder that a low IQ cop would chastise & chase down a kid for asking for directions from 2 different sources! You see, this is the mentality you’re dealing with when this cop went off on a power anger trip b/c a kid didn’t trust his directions but according to this thug club cop should have b/c this cop’s word is law & the word of God (apparently)!
