- A Detroit police sergeant now facing a $10 million wrongful arrest lawsuit was nearly fired in 2020 after the department concluded he assaulted his girlfriend and repeatedly called her the n-word.
Why do these cops ALWAYS have a long, documented history of misconduct that was previously hidden from the public???
criminal history you mean a thug just like i used to be
That’s how police move up in the ranks
That’s the thin blue line they’re always talking about. The thin blue line is code for coverups and lack of accountability.
Because they are hired based on their unsuitability to be police. They are put in office to maintain the status quo and since there are so many incompetent people, they can be easily replaced by the next one when their misdeeds can no longer be denied. It's a cycle of dysfunction.
Because like any other criminal their behavior will essculate when they are allowed to continue to terrorize innocent people. Protected by his fellow officers, supervisors, department, union, and attorneys.
Good for that judge for speaking out on the cops.
Put that shit in perspective.
That's good the judge spoke up and let them know it was wrong for them arresting her and I pray she gets justice ⚖..
I hope she leaves Detroit with their entire police budget
She is seeking millions and rightfully so
Stop it!! The Judge only spoke up because people were making noise. White People run when the truth comes out and video expose the devils.
Only job in the world were your allowed to do whatever you want whenever you want. Incredible
Ruin folks life in a moment With no consequences. That's why i avoid the blubonic plague at all cost even when having a a major stroke i was able to tell 911 operator I'm petrified of cops please don't send them to my peaceful home they're bring all their negative abusive energy into my happy home and I'm also terrified of being unalived bythem i mean i truly have panic and anxiety attacks when their present. I didn't say all that in that moment but evidently i spoke clear enough to share my deepest fear for whatever life if i have life at all after that massive stroke 5 years ago, and today because of praying parents I'm at 95% normal extremity movement and visions cause i was twisted really badly initially needing round the clock medical support for the first 2 years of my journey of recovery, and now my face is very small evidence of a stroke only people who knew prior sees 👀 the difference. I can fully walk after 2 years of bed to bed i had so many painful dreadful bed shores that i begged my in home nurse to please help outta bed to sit in the chair, that wonderful vibrant nurse took her humanity over her job and i NEVER mumsed a word, after all she's done for me i told her if ANYTHING HAPPENED while she was helping me into that wonderful chair i would swear up and down that i fell on my own trying to get outta bed. She stayed with me the whole two years of major recovery/thearpy and that's very rare for nursing while at patients home, they usually lasted 2 months tops well at least that's what the doctor said. She even physically took me to a few Doc appointments by herself in HER CAR which is completely outta order. Every year i mean every single year i was released from having in home support I'm always sure to invite her to movie and dinner of her picking with lovely box of shoes i mean heck i couldn't wear any shoes especially my favorite 6inch stalletos. And i had survive shopping addiction before and now after for high heals well pretty things and she was my crime buddy when i was finally able to do most things on my own i couldn't drive and get outta the house without asst. Thank you Mr. Cathy for the rest of my life i will always feel indebted to her and her husband 🖤👍💋💯. It only took me 20 min to constrict this whole comment alone. I aim for progress, not perfection 🥰 . Who ever read my whole comment top the end then i want to say may you and family and friends forever be protected from any hurt, harm or danger. May you have the blessed day you deserve. 🙏
This “cop” doesn’t even obey the law himself. Yet they kept him on the force for years.
Fire him now
Cops are like the pedophile priests in the catholic church- they just quietly move bad cops to other cities. A super bad cop from, I think, Warren(?) got fired from there and was moved to Rochester! This just happened recently!
Eff that. Charge him!
Hey Sandra get that 10 million..you deserve it!!
This woman has put up with way too much BS and being mistreated.
This officer was aweful to her and
has a list of misdoings.
Shameful
that woman shoulda did a citizens arrest and arrested that cop!!
"Unfortunately, Sergeant Pionessa's conduct pre-dates the Department's current disciplinary and risk management protocols." WTF does that mean?! So any police misconduct conducted pre - 2018 doesn't hold weight??? What a great way to set a precedent....
Right? All the more reason he shouldnt have a job. All the more reason he should be behind bars
@@Bigsauce7593 should have been around bars 40 complaints ago....
@@brettfeinbaum 40 complaints ago and when he caused a crash from drunk driving
I'm just beyond belief at this point. If this doesn't prove that the police cannot be trusted to investigate and discipline itself I don't know what does. The Detroit Police need to be under Justice Department oversight just like Minneapolis.
It means that they are doing everything they can to keep him. All of his passed cases should be reviewed. He is clearly responsible for putting other innocent people behind bars off camera.
That’s not a last chance agreement when normally you’d get fired. It’s another chance agreed.
He makes enough arrests and writes enough tickets so we're keeping him around.
Fire him ASAP
Drunk driving as a police officer and causing a crash? Separate instance where he crashed his car and left the scene? Domestic violence? Forget the 61 civilizian complaints why is he only getting SUSPENSIONS for criminal behaviour? He needs to be behind bars.
And the police administration that keeps turning a blind eye needs to be fired. Clean that whole department up.
In Canada, leaving the crime when suspected of drunk driving adds an automatic DUI charge.
HE GOTTA GO! ITS JUST THAT SIMPLE!!!
The bottom line is they don't care if he's a bad cop. Their disciplinary policies are a sham. They are designed to let a bad cop off the hook.
THEY take care of THEIR own....here's the Proof. 😐
Just get to the part where he retires goes to another city gets a new job...The bad apples just moves to a different barrel😮
You expressed my thoughts exactly. This poor excuse for a police officer will be hired by some other police force where his reckless conduct will demoralize the good officers on that force and will embolden the bad to become worse. The bad applies not only move to another barrel; they plant bad seeds.
These are the types which gravitate towards law enforcement. When they take that oath, many of them don't envision themselves arresting people who look like themselves.
His years on the force testify against him for his disgusting actions
I still don't understand why cops aren't held personally financially responsible as well. Not only do they face little to no consequences for their actions, they also make taxpayers pay 100% of the lawsuits. Officers are often even allowed to retire with over 1,000,000 in lifetime benfits on taxpayer dime. Lose lose lose for citizens. Qualified immunity must be overturned if we ever expect real change. 🤷 Very interesting that they didn't go find the officer after the "dog" incident to see if he was impaired. 🤔 They certainly would have located one of us. Quickly. Did they forget his address??? 🤦
I hope she gets everything she deserves
From this video alone this officer was confirmed to be driving while intoxicated (felony), fleeing the scene of an accident, domestic abuse, and assault and battery, yet, he didn't get fired let alone prosecuted, but yet people still backing the blue.
They knew he had an addiction problem, knew he was violent, knew he was a criminal, gave him a gun, excused his behavior, released him on an unsuspecting and innocent community but dont understand why their profession is the biggest threat to every community? Really? We are not as blind as they are.
He's got to go permanently. How many more criminal acts are you going to give this person Ridiculous
Alcohol is a not an excuse for being a domestic abuser. It's also not an excuse to behave like a tyrant on duty.
He must have some dirt on the higher ups…
This is so uncalled for. It angers me. Also scares me that these people can put him back in the police field.
IF A CITIZEN KILLS SOMEONE HE WILL GO TO JAIL... DONE.
IF A POLICEMAN KILLS A CITIZEN:
1- The Police will try their best to frame the victim
2 - The police department will try their best to cover up the crime
3 - When the covering fails, the officer will send on a paid leave
4 - After convicting the officer, The Taxpayers Will pay the Settlement
5 - The PD will ask for more money from the Taxpayers under the pretext of training
And the place that fired her should be ashamed of them selves. You don't fire someone until they are found guilty in the court of law.
Hes a liar. Embarrassment to the good ones. Another gary steele....
Dirty cop should be fired now!
Imagine being the only person in Detroit NOT allowed the 1st amendment.
lmao what are you even talking about?
From one white dude another, your screen name says a lot about your biases. Also, I would love to challenge your clearly scholarly mind about how his first amendment right was violated.... do tell.
@@brettfeinbaum don’t you have some flyers to print out?
@@palepride7530 now im even more confused.. i genuinely dont know what you are talking about. can you explain?
@@brettfeinbaum systemic abrahamic racism and it’s effects on the world?
61 complaints,wow, he worked hard for his promotion!
There are still good Detroit cops. Puts a stain on the whole dept.
😂
Who?
Hey y'all look! This foo thought I was about to agree.😂😂😂
Detroit cops are corrupt as a whole..They recruit anybody that's wants to be a cop lol..What a joke
No. Stop. Obviously, they don't care about the stain on their department, or he still wouldn't be a cop. In what other profession can you wreck two of your employer's cars, leave the scene of a crash you caused, drive drunk, get 71 complaints and just turn in some of your vacation days as punishment? WHAT good cops?
They all know who their Co Workers are.
Putting hands on a woman sadly is becoming the norm for many law enforcement officers and what's even sadder is many male and female citizens seem to think because it's a cop then it must be ok .
It’s never ok period !
Cops should get double the punishment for domestic violence.
He gets off like that huh
Wow I’m in recovery and this guy needs to be locked up. Why does he get to get away with this stuff. I guess blue protects blue.. it’s time for a change.
wait so he admitted he has a drinks problem no jail time
I'd have a problem too if my party was served the wrong drinks at a restaurant too.
SEE HOW KARMA ALWAYS COME BACK TO BITE YOU 😂
I'm shocked they found the one judge in Michigan who wasn't corrupt to the core.
The DPD must be held accountable for its gross negligence.
Very happy to know they are being sued and the entire entity (starting at the top) must be dealt with.
The absolute garbage state of American policing today boggles the mind.
DUI should have got him fired 30 20 3 day suspensions 61 complaints whats the hell is going on?
This is outrageous it should be immediate termination if he was driving drunk,driving crazy and beating his girlfriend.
This is why we can't have public unions
How do you take someone to jail when you’re guilty of doing the same thing? That thin blue line is thick!
If u want his address dm me
Why nobody likes or respects cops. Over 60 complaints and multiple felonies and allowed to keep his job. Hardest job to get fired from.
A normal citizen who interacts with the public would have been fired a long time ago. No way would you be permitted to have that many complaints in your personnel file and still hold onto your job.
He’s wanting pity for a problem; I am wondering how many people he assaulted with this very problem or worst! He is not addressing the assault of many who he violated. He is giving a pitiful and un-remorseful excuse.
How sick, this man should not be working as a officer.
Rogue, racist, abusive, cop promoted within the Detroit Police Department to sergeant…
That judge is so handsome 🙂 His intelligence is a turn on!
61 citizen complaints and domestic violence towards his girlfriend and he hasn’t been fired yet???!!!! What the hell???!!!!
Either fire him or the lawsuits will pile up!
Detroit police department will not act on dismissing one of their finest until there are 62 complaints. it's their policy.
I wouldn't trust this guy to make me an order of fries let alone drive around with a gun by himself 😅
Leaving the seen of an accident is a felony for anybody else
Wow, 61 complaints. And cops still keep him employed? I wonder why? It don't make sense. Fire the whole police department for keeping lawless cops employed.
This criminal cop is a MONSTER and belongs in PRISON where TRUE JUSTICE WILL PREVAIL!
The Detroit police should be disbanded and revamped.
what a joke he should have been sacked after his drink driving charge its cops looking after cops again rotten to the core
He should be fired. The system failed Sandra Wilson....SMH
Aren't they supposed to be held to a higher standard? Not a lower one
Detroit love giving away the TAX PAYER money$$$$$
Drunk driving, leaving the scene, giving false statements to police. Can someone explain to me why this cop isn't in jail?
Good I hope the suit helps her redemption!! 😮
If you want to commit crimes legally, join the DPD.
Citizens shouldn’t be paying, it should come from the police budget and police union. Corruption in policing is out of control
Really 9 months of probation what a joke
this man needs to be terminated there's no way he needs to be working with the public with this type of behavior,and on top of that using the n word he just making Detroit look bad
What a joke law enforcement is
Why is the first and foremost offense? Shouldnt that just fall under corruptuon?
When they let this filthy example of a police officer get away with being 2.5 times the level of intoxication, it shows that they're going to let him do anything. It's more double standards and lies to the public.
Victims and lawyers are compensated but it doesn't cost guilty cops a penny as they laugh behind closed doors.
I hope she gets the 10 million
That alcohol dependency statement is a lie of a psychopath deflecting blame due to the inability to take responsibility for one's own actions. So no, he caused an innocent citizen to lose her job and caged her for 3 days. The law of balance dictates he make amends to that citizen. If the corrupt system won't do it, Karma will.
You can bet his big apology for his alcoholism and past actions wasn't written by him but by the police public relations bureaucracy.
I hope the Detroit force learns a lesson when they lose the case and have to pay out millions of $ to the woman wrongfully arrested and jailed for 2 days. They have had so many chances to just get rid of this problem officer and they failed. They put the public at risk when they continue to allow a gun carrying law enforcement officer who is out of control to work. It's going to hurt the whole force = they did it to themselves.
So...he was wrong when he "hit" a woman?!?! What about all the other things on his record?!?!
Smh so when people are against Defund the Police, how exactly do they propose holding departments accountable when they ignore corrupt cops for this long?
Why should you hand off MORE tax payer dollars to organizations that behave with impunity like this?
Start making these cops pay the lawsuits them selves.
What are 3 examples of police corruption?
10 Examples of Police Misconduct To Refer to for Your Case
Use of excessive force.
Tampering with evidence.
Police brutality.
Mishandling evidence.
Coerced confessions.
Sexual assault.
Lying on police reports.
False imprisonment or arrest.
That type of cop NEEDS TO BE FIRED GOD-DAMN-IT!!!!!!!!!!!
This is why I never pursued this career.
Arresting someone who is innocent and in that process causing her to lose her job. Nope he still a pig. Fire him and lock him up and I hope she win the lawsuit.
after 10 complaints it should be over
So cops can commit felonies and still keep his job and carry a gun. A d.U.I. that high over legal limits is a felony for your average citizen
Those who are supposed to uphold the law, don't need to follow the law themselves...apparently.
It only shows how corrupted there are🤡
Leaving the scene of an accident and only got 3 days suspended speaks volumes about do as I Say NOT DO AS I DO.
Minorities need to leave the city and watch how many officers are laid off due to low arrest/harassment rates.
They found ,that law suits against DpD contribute to Detroit going into Bankruptcy, back in the early 2000s, like like Jeffrey Fieger said ,wouldn't it be easier for Detroit to get it's business together
No last chance. He needs to be fired and arrested for the domestic violence.
After being scolded by the judge and clearly they screwed up. The DPD says the arrest was proper. This is why the the DPD and other pilice agencies will continue to do these things.
He is chsrged with and pleads no contest to domestic violence. He was charged with Dui when he was in an accident. He was in an accident with a police vehicle and left the scene. And has had 62 complaints in in 23 years. Come on.
Then with the way he treated that woman with the credit card. This guy is a POS and has no empathy for people as he mentioned in his statement.
Shame on him and the DPD for letting this go on and keeping him employed.
Drunks, wifebeaters, thieves, drug dealers, bullies and predators. I’m not talking about the “streets” of America. I’m talking about those that patrol them…..
This is ridiculous, using the r-word to excuse themselves for committing crimes
He have a angry problem and should not be out there to protect and serve people
Time to strip these departments of these dirty cops.
My goodness he should be fired along with whoever helped him keep his job after 60+ complaints. That’s the racist police dept. for you. No matter how many complaints he kept his job.
They'll probably let him retire and call him a good cop
Pigs protecting pigs never gets old
