I watch the video of his arrest, it’s a sad situation he has a serious problem with alcohol and needs help. I pray that he gets it.

Oh man, with all the complaints about police, at least he didn’t shoot anybody but putting it in the news they’ll have to discipline him or certain people in the public will want to crucify him. He knows better than to be driving under the influence. Shame on him!

Do you feel were it not made public the force should let it slide? I fully support the police. I also fully support equal treatment under the law. I want to see him crucified as much as I want to see any person driving under the influence crucified, which is not much at all. Such charges will stay with a person for life. Then again, drunk driving can take the lives of innocent people. It is an area I am happy not to have to deal with.

I had the same reaction.

Was it a normal person, not a cop, they would publish name and I think I've seen them publish address.

You’ll be surprised how many people go to work drunk or drink on the job. Especially on evening shifts. The problem so don’t know how to manage their problem.

They had no choice reported and followed by reporting person. It would of been bigger news if the officers covered it up.
