Cops Are Being ‘Trained’ To Use Literal Witchcraft To Find Dead Bodies

https://www.techdirt.com/2022/03/30/cops-are-being-trained-to-use-literal-witchcraft-to-find-dead-bodies/

This so-called “expert” (GBI agent Todd Crosby) throws around some scientific terms during his demonstration of dowsing for dead people, but none of it adds up to actual science. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation agent is simply parroting Vass’ pseudoscience spiel. But (as Lowering the Bar points out) he can’t even pronounce the term he’s abusing correctly.

Here’s Vass himself, spouting equal parts jargon and ********.

He says the metal rods can detect “piezoelectricity,” an electric charge that builds in certain solid materials such as crystals (it’s the reason quartz watches work). Bones under mechanical stress can also produce these charges, which is why, Vass says, some people can find them with dowsing rods. But not everyone, he told me, because “if people don’t have the right voltage, it’s not going to work.” (No peer-reviewed published research has illustrated that piezoelectricity can be used to detect buried remains.)

No doubt you'll be surprised to learn that the video disagrees with the officer's sworn affidavit

You might be more surprised to learn that the Hamilton county district attorney's office has requested an investigation.

Lol imagine being such a POS that you end up getting shanked to death because you refuse to stop abusing a homeless man's dog.

Tyler Steffins, an officer for the Edmonds Police Department, was on the Las Vegas Strip on March 25 when he grabbed the dogs’ faces “aggressively,” the Las Vegas Police Department said in a probable cause statement.

The dog’s owner was upset by how Steffins grabbed his dogs, police said.

Then the next day, Steffins walked by the man and stopped to pet his dogs again, police said.

The man told the officer not to be “rough” with his animals, but police said Steffins began petting them “aggressively,” and he was asked to stop.

Steffins and the dog owner began arguing, police said, and at one point, Steffins told the man to “get a job.”

Freddy Allen had been with the man and his dogs since the beginning of their interaction, police said.

Allen approached Steffins while he argued with the other man and stabbed the officer on the left side of his chest before running away, police said.

Steffins said “I think he just stabbed me” before taking off his shirt and falling to the ground, police said. He was not armed during the incident, police said.

Do you think stabbing a man to death is an appropriate response? Your dog obviously does, which is understandable. I don't.

"Petting a dog aggressively" means what exactly? It doesn't mention "abusing" which is your word, punching, squeezing, or anything else. That's all we have to go with.

I have been accosted by two homeless people recently, separate occasions. Many of these people have serious mental issues and/or drug habits. Who knows what really happened. I can only go by the story as written, and as it stands that man is a murderer.

Appropriate, no, murdering someone for being a dick is generally not an appropriate response. It's definitely funny as hell though. For all the people for an armed and unstable homeless person to run a knife through, a cop that can't restrain himself from harassing homeless people and abusing animals, even while on vacation, seems as good a candidate as any.

An off-duty cop being a dick to a homeless person and manhandling their dog on two separate occasions, despite explicit pleas to not do so, is the most believable story ever told.

Illinois Police Officer Resigns After White Supremacist Posts Surface Online
"When I seize power, 'hate crimes' will be encouraged," read a social media post linked to veteran officer Aaron Paul Nichols. He resigned Tuesday.

...

“I have metal stamps. I think I’ll just stamp 14/88 into every ****** quarter I get,” another of the Gab posts read. “Easy.”

The number 14 refers to a white supremacist slogan, and 88 refers to “HH,” or “Heil Hitler.”

“******* ruin everything,” another post read. “Even if it’s White doing the stealing they’re likely selling the meat to blaq [sic] run restaurants or trading it to ******* for dope. Real talk.”

Springfield, the capital city of Illinois, has a population of approximately 115,000 people, and SPD has just over 200 officers on its police force. Black citizens represent 20% of the population, according to the 2020 Census.

Along with Black people, posts connected to Nichols also expressed a deep hatred for Jews.

“I’ll say it in English. I am a supporter of as many holocausts as it takes to cleanse this world of talmudic influence,” a post that has been archived read.

Another post said “Hitler did nothing wrong,” and another discussed how the user told a neighbor at a Christmas party that he didn’t believe the Holocaust happened.

Seems nice

The resignation of Springfield Police Department Officer Aaron Paul Nichols, 46, came shortly after his department announced an investigation into the posts, first surfaced by Anonymous Comrades Collective (ACC), a group of anti-fascist researchers.

Another W for the antifa super soldiers.

FBI says kicking in the front door is only for the filthy poors

The FBI decided not to break down the front door of a wealthy suspect's house—because he lived in an "affluent neighborhood" and agents wanted to preserve the "aesthetics" of the community.

During arguments today, Judge Millett assailed this "outrageous behavior by the FBI."

Judge Wilkins adds: "I was a public defender here for 10 years. I can't tell you how many times my clients had their front doors bashed in ... I don't remember a single time where any agent or police officer was worried about the aesthetics of what their house would look like."

https://twitter.com/mjs_DC/status/1512192142545981450?cxt=HHwWlMC4ibyvsfwpAAAA

Judge is reaming out the FBI because they decided a rich neighborhood was too swanky for them to force the front door in to execute a search warrant, instead they went around and kicked in the back door in order to keep up appearances.
 

Police rightly understand that the general public would be disgusted by their practices if they were exposed to it in their own communities, so you find that they reserve their most piggish behavior for populations who are largely powerless to effect change. Civil rights exist on a sliding scale pegged to wealth.

Oh, there's plenty of evidence for your assertion. It's just that I thought they weren't supposed to be quite so blatant about it.

And this is the FBI, not some municipal police force with 2 officers who are both related to each other.
 
Can't read that here in old blighty. Probably similar to stories we had over here about the dangers of accidents during high speed pursuits caused by the police about 10 to 15 years ago. It was recognised that there had to be strong grounds for why a high speed pursuit was reasonable and proportionate given the increased risk to the public. Caused a national review of the issue and new guidelines and tests being introduced - see: https://www.app.college.police.uk/a...ng-2/police-pursuits/#national-decision-model

Boils down to the idea that a 10 mile high-speed pursuit because someone jumped a red light is not strong grounds to put the public at additional risk. Pursuing a violent offender is.

ETA: it boils down to training again - police need structures and training to ensure they don't let the understandable "in the heat of the moment" thinking dictate their actions.

Like I've said before if Johnny Manic commits a "Reservoir Dogs" style jewelry heist and is running from it in his souped up muscle car heading for the border at 120 miles an hour firing out the window screaming "You'll never take me alive!" sure take the kids gloves off and ram his ass off the road.

But it it's a non-violent offender.. just track them down later. It's not that hard.
