You see this is just egregious, the OPP scapegoating one of their own using a DUI to emphasize 'maintaining trust' with the public. Pffft How can anyone overlook the obvious!??!
This absolutely enrages me and proves just how corrupt the OPP are, they're willing to destroy one man's life and publicize it over a paltry DUI? After 17 years and THAT'S the first and best infraction they got on this guy? Seriously? SERIOUSLY?
I have encountered so much corruption with the OPP in my lifetime and I've documented HARD EVIDENCE to prove that where officers should have never had the privilege of continuing on with law enforcement and been incarcerated.
I'm talking serious corruption that the OPP and law enforcement is supposed to expose but were a part of.
Don't be fooled by this publicized announcement, this is strictly an attempt that the OPP jumped all over to take advantage of what's called 'keeping up with appearances'.
There's absolutely nothing funny about a DUI and it's a serious offence, I absolutely oppose it, however, if an OPP officer was actually drinking on the job, it's most likely due to c-PTSD because no way an officer of the law is going to jeopardize their job especially whilst on duty...not for frigging alcohol.
So ya, I can almost guarantee my profile is on point and that this officer has a serious case of c-PTSD.
I'm not making excuses up here for a DUI, that's absolutely not the point of my comment. The moral of my comment is just how much corruption that goes on amongst the OPP and law enforcement, however, that's never publicized....and THAT'S the point I'm establishing here:
Publicizing and destroying what was probably a good officer's life over a DUI when there's hard core evidence of corruption among the OPP that's never publicized is a farce.
I've got hard core evidence corruption on the OPP and the Toronto Police Service and orher services that got brushed under the rug all in the name of saving face to the public!
And they tried to rid me at the same time when I tried to expose it to the press...that's right they blocked me from getting to the press and even followed me across the country and blocked every avenue to the press from me when I tried to expose the documents to the press.
This story here about an OPP officer obtaining a DUI on the job is NOTHING compared to the real corruption I have in hard copy.
Am I angry? Damn right I am because I see the profile the OPP are trying to convey to the public when I know the real motive and profile going on here.
