When it comes to police being total assholes to citizens, this case from 2007 where a young man secretly recorded a cop threatening to manufacture a litany of charges for “getting smart with him” by asking what he did wrong is still my all time favorite cop caught on tape incident. The officer, Sgt James Kuehnlein of the St. George police in Missouri, was filmed making the threats by the victim’s own dash-cam which he installed for safety reasons. “You wanna go to f*****g jail for some reason I come up with?” Kuehnlein threatened to a young Brett Darrow. “You wanna try me boy?” “Try and talk back to me again, I bet I could say you resisted arrest, or something!” Kuehnlein was later fired over the incident, but the neighboring Velda City police department liked what they saw and hired him right up. After he was accused, and found guilty of domestic abuse in 2011 for beating his girlfriend and pulling a chunk of her hair out, the Velda City police were forced to fire him as well. For the average citizen, filing false charges is considered a felony for which serious jail time and/or civil penalties may result but, for those who are sworn to Protect and Serve, filing false charges against folks who attempt to resist their over stepped authority is just a matter of routine. Thats going to change, thanks to videos like this one. youtu.be/m6Rn2cNyk7w
