Police officers ambushed... again

1. National discipline registry for officers. Doctors have it for malpractice.
2. Pay them more thus attracting higher quality minds that can better think critically
3. Tour style shifts. x amount of weeks on patrol and x amount of weeks to decompress and engage with community programs and desk work. Offer mental evaluations as well.

Just to start, I think that minimizes the unreported harassment aspect whether it's just perceived or true.
#1 isn’t true. There are druggie doctors everywhere in the country you’ll never hear about because of the diversion programs they have. Plus you have to have someone to separate the “true complaints” vs “the made up ones” which every officer experiences

#2 agree

#3 But problem is there’s not enough staffing to do this

I've always been able to pull claims in FL and GA. States are probably different but the idea is the same. My idea for the registry would include the IA conclusion attached. I'd lean more toward it being for other departments in detail and summarized for the public.

There isnt enough staffing at the moment but we could work toward it.

They left out the part about who would pay their medical bills.

I'm just sayin'.....
which would allow an assault against a law enforcement officer to a misdemeanor if the person attacked is not hurt.

Unless you are referring to the attacker, if the police officer is not hurt = misd. If the officer is hurt, I'm assuming it is a felony and/or mandatory jail time.

Interesting that it also applies to judges, firefighters, correctional officers and EMS. Can't wait until a judge gets assaulted, that would be very intersting.

Yes, I was referring to the attacker. Here, we have "Obstruction w/o violence" (M), and "Obstruction w/violence" (F). When you say "assault" to me, I hear "offer or intent to do bodily harm"...in which case yes, we need to know who is going to be responsible for your medical bills.

The taxpayers have a right to know what they are paying for.

:cool:

Bill needs to include Virginia state legislators as well, let's see how many of the morons vote for it then.
