I wouldn't doubt this tyrant violated many citizens rights over the years.
Now he gets to go see where they live. I guarantee everyone of them was gonna recognize them. This pig ain’t gonna be safe on the PC yard.
Hundreds if not thousands of individuals rights completely violated. Maybe he will even run into a couple fellow inmates that he planted stuff on or fudged reports on or lied in testimony. Either way, if he’s retired right now, he was DEFINITELY part of a terrible culture.
Using the term “citizens” is a bit misleading. This CRIMINAL was wanted on a felony warrant and was fleeing the police. He made his choice and lost. Good riddance. I lean towards the liberal side on most issues but crime in this country is out of control. The cop hating is just ridiculous. Police have an impossible job and I for one support them for all they do.
@@holdingcopsaccountable6554the da is a police defense lawyer and so is the judge.

Because he's retired from law enforcement now he's not a danger to society.

@@DarthVader1977oh its Darth Vader with the stupid comments again
Police might want to revisit the way they handle police who commit and are found quilty of criminal offences. Vigilante justice will or could become a real problem to treat the lack of honest justice being up-held.
Our system is so corrupt!!! So the the judge says "" I UNDERSTAND THAT HE IS SUSPENDED AT THIS TIME "" Inwhich the murderer cops lawyer acknowledged the cop was suspended but he put in for retirement and the state police accepted his retirement.... THIS MEANS HE WILL GET HIS RETIREMENT BENEFITS... THAT IS DISGUSTING
It won’t stop a civil case going after it, they should never accept a resignation until after the court case is settled.
Oakland County, Michigan deputies are why taxpayers no longer support law enforcement!
Deputy encounters seldom if ever benefit the taxpayer!
He will be in prison for a very long time those benifits will go to helping his family
We clearly see that the judge is always on they side ... It didn't matter he killed that boy he should stay in jail... Sad to have to watch how this shit ..

@@howlinwulf This is called deflection.
Van Damme and Joe Rogan should eat his bass.
How the hell do you get a personal recognizance bond on a murder charge? That means he didn’t have to pay one fine to get out on bond.
It happens all the time with plenty of gang bangers and habitual offenders
When did he retire? Did he retire after the murder? LEOs should not be allowed to retire if they are or will be facing criminal charges. The deck is stacked in the favor of corrupt/criminal LEOs. That needs to change. Edit: Detective Brian Keely retired ONE DAY before his arraignment. If he did nothing wrong why was he in such a rush to retire? This is rediculous & needs to change.
You are correct about the deck being stacked in favor of Law Enforcement, Judges, Court Personnel, etc...
Sometime in the 1980's the Supreme Court approved the Qualified Immunity Act, which protects Law Enforcement Officers from being held personally accountable/responsible for their wrongful actions against citizens.
Law Enforcement Officers are there to make sure that the laws aren't broken and to address those who break the law. The problem is that they don't know many of the laws/statutes, they misinterpret what the laws say or mean, and most have no understanding of Constitutional Laws, which are the most important because they were written to protect the people's naturally born rights, and can overide city or state laws, and the one's that they sware an oath to protect and defend, before they can get their certification to work in the field of Law Enforcement.
This reminds me of the 1920s. The sheriff is chasing down a suspect on his horse. But this cop does one better with a 3 tone vehicle. But this Scumbag gets to retire.
Only in mErica,.corruption is legal and rewarding... Built on DECEPTION AND VIOLENCE AND UNFAIR legal system..
Did his lawyer just say that this is the first time his client is in trouble, admitting that his client is actually “in trouble”? Words carry meaning, especially in court.
He's charged with murder. To say this guy is in trouble is an understatement.
IN TROUBLE HE RAN AN INNOCENT MAN OVER BECAUSE HE WAS TOO LAZY TO GET OUT AND APREHEND HIM!
That pos was def not innocent
I will bet you that if he is found guilty he will not get the same treatment you or I would get!!!!!!!
He is ALREADY not getting the same treatment!
When the judge asked about his record, I believe his attorney said some thing to the effect of, for the most part, he has not had any problems with the law. … 😅😅
he'll no he's most likely going to get a few months in jail at best and loss of certification
3 years and probation
As someone who lives close to GR. This and the other death of the other young man is very concerning. Im afraid to drive in this area for the fear getting pulled over, and who knows how far the officers would take it....
Yes, its a nation wide issue.
Don't do anything wrong. If pulled over, comply with LEOs requests. Don't run away. Do all this and you'll go home at night. It's not hard, dude.
@user-bo1rj2xu2s
Law Enforcement believe they are superior and above the citizens. It's too bad they don't understand the oath they took says all men are all equal in the eyes of the law, which means that the only time Law Enforcement is above a citizen is if they have broken the law. If you have not committed a crime and refuse to give your ID to most Law Enforcement Officers, they try to arrest you for obstruction. Why? Because Law Enforcement Officers do not want to hear the word "NO" and they think they are superior to you, so they will use their authority against you for hurting their egos.
@@user-bo1rj2xu2s No not true not even remotely true.... Ive seen dozens and dozens of vids of ppl doing EXACTLY what the cops say and still get shot or beaten or tazed.... And God forbid you hurt the cops fee fees or hurt his fragile ego... Then you are fucked no matter WHAT you do or how close you follow commands... And all of that doesnt even touch illegal commands illegal stops etc. We have rights for a reason not so we can be subservient to the police and the police state we live in and ppl like YOU perpetuate with your utter bullshit "dOnT bReAk tHe lAw aNd fOlLoW aLl cOmMaNdS aNd yOu wIlL bE fInE"
Exactly! This guy was a wanted fugitive with a record.
After the victim was hit by the vehicle he was then handcuffed. EMTs were told that he must remain handcuffed. Let that sink in!!
That's the law because in the great majority of cases, the person being pursued is still capable of being dangerous towards the EMTs and others. It's such a minor thing you're complaining about; focus on the real crime.
@user-bo1rj2xu2s That's true, and they had no idea that his injuries were fatal or that an officer would catch a murder charge.
Yea cause he was a pos felon fleeing . Sucks to suck
Why is he NOT in shackles and an orange costume like the rest of us would be????
This Judge is playing games. she knows she is going to give bail.
Should not be a judge should be a private citizen
That f-ing blue line goes all the way to judges
Court-favored Michigan cops seem to politically escape the draconian yet mandated BOND CONDITIONS which include, in-person reporting, daily in-person naked drug & alcohol urine testing in front of strangers, a minimum of 12 sessions of counseling, and calling in every morning between the hours of 4:00am and 5:00am until trial. (Subservient and costly mandates) It's what the court mandates from all arrestees except for cops, and that's just wrong...

Blue Line Gang Member being treated differently than how the rest of the community would be treated for the same offense(s). Shortly after this hearing this accused murderer was allowed to retire, so he could get his pension! The Blue Line Gang continues to earn the hate everyday!
Ik of several ACTUAL gang members who get released on tether.
Sometimes the hate in folks hearts can be seen. Their posture changes. The look of arrogance in their faces.
Am I right that victim is black? Would he be more culpable if the victim was white?
Strong feelings about another government officer getting away with murder treated completely different to ordinary citizens
"The first time, well one of the first times." Which is it?
Yeah, I caught that too. How many "first times" have there been? And why didn't the judge ask for the prosecutor to make a bond argument?
That certainly tells you he has at least one prior!
TALK ABOUT GETTING AWAY WITH MURDER.
Oh, was the jury chosen, was the trial held and was he acquitted? I must have missed it.
@@user-bo1rj2xu2s WAIT FOR IT!!!!!!!!!

He got a PR Bond for Murder? Are you serious.
Yep happens all the time.
He white
I dont usually speak out but WTH was going through his mind to take a car hit somebody? Tht was no accident. If the man gets away catch him another day.
Sterling should of had his day in court...instead his life was taken by a state trooper who could have used different methods to detain him.
Sounds like you know a lot about very little. Tell us what YOU would have done, .......IN REAL TIME. Too bad the world doesn't have more perfect people like you.
@@putnamcountycrimeanalysiswandr Tell us what YOU would have done... in real time. Thanks.
Right. I mean, it would be like, you know, totally absurd, and everything, to expect somebody who knows they have a felony warrant out for their arrest to arrange to turn themselves in.
He had multiple felons so he definitely had his day in court that's why he was running
Look at the grandson of a New Jersey state trooper.
His grandson was murdered by his son Christopher Gergor....his ONLY grandson.
The state wouldn't strip the father's parental rights..
It was reported over and over that he was suspected of abusing his son.
I believe this was because he was from a law enforcement family....and got special treatment.
Now Cory Micciollo, a 6 year old boy is dead.
There's a lot of corruption when it comes to law enforcement.
Some cops ARE good.
I'm glad people are still wiling to do this job....putting their lives on the line for us.

"One of the first times he's got in trouble". Cops judging cops .

Why retire if you think you are innocent
I am super surprised that the police union wasn't able to lie their way to stop any prosecution.
There could be 100s of complaints that were NEVER documented.
I’m super surprised that some kid with felony warrants was allowed out on the streets. Parents of this kid should be charged for harboring a criminal - I’m sure they knew their low life of a kid had felony warrants out on him. Grand Rapids is better off now because of this police officer.

Just pure BS. Under investigation by the department's internal affairs and he retires. Now since he is not an employee anymore they don't have any authority. So he gets to keep his certification. Then the judge gives him OR. What a crock. Should be a $250,000 cash bond like anyone else accused of murder. The justice system takes care of its own.

I don't understand how a government worker can retire when their employment is currently suspended for unlawful activity? This doesn't happen in other government jobs... you have to meet certain criteria and be continuously employed, not be separated from employment as this alleged felon is. He should be able to quit and defer his retirement, but no way should he be allowed to act as a retiree when suspended from employment.
Surely he retired and kept his pension which should be kept by the state to pay for his prison sentence
let's hope the family goes after his pension as well as his freedom also they need to sue the dept as well
Officer, state your name and badge number. “It’s right here”.
He killed A man with A 5000 pound vehicle and that should be ok.?

Why can't regular citizens have the same rights as police such as qualified immunity so if a citizen should defend him or her self they won't be punished
Oh God no the judge has a Karen haircut.

They need to take his weapons away I hope that's in the bond agreement
Officer Keeley caused the death of Samuel Sterling. The 4,000 pound car ramming Samuel is on a video!
