In reply to the discussion: Officer Todd Parmentier leaves a elderly disabled couple on the street at 3am, tows their car over insurance mistake [View all]ColoringFool
(1,368 posts)34. You require more than this incident? Might there be...
a way to mitigate this racist, heartless, cruel act of a man sworn to "protect and serve"? And not to just any citizens; to AN ELDERLY AMPUTEE AND AN OLDER WOMAN VETERAN. IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT. ON A HIGHWAY. TOLD TO CALL AN UBER.
Frankly, his behavior boggles my mind. And it will boggle the minds of the jurors or the mind of the judge who will eventually award this couple a pretty penny.
So if you're asking should I consider his past before I judge him on his present? Tea, China, and all that.
This is the same defense, in fact, that Tex Watson (Tate-La Bianca) used: Was it "fair" to judge him based solely on such a relatively brief period in his life? 🙄🧐

+1. POS is a goddamn racist. He would never do that to a white elderly disabled person.

Shame on him. They should have attacked him so he would have to take them to jail. Or, just because he was being an ass

Miss Mobley is retired military with good military insurance. I hope USAA and a good lawyer make things right

An attorney needs to step up and, pro bono, sue the shit out of that police department. How disgusting.
