Re: PCSO Deputy arrested for DUI
Ok obviously we have a difference of opinion. For a minute I thought I was f$cked up and I brought up this subject to the hardcore DUI guys in my agency (we have a task force) and even they agree that it's a tough choice to make. Some of them said they would do it hands down with no problem and others said no way. It just amazes me that not ONE of your guys defended the dep on this matter. I guess we see things a little different down here. No big deal, you guys see guys like me as "dirty" and an "embarrassment". And guys like me see you guys as rats and backstabbers. Who is right? Who is wrong? It doesn't matter. You guys keep making the decisions that you think is right and Ill continue to make mine. Each of us will have to live with our choices in life.
Law enforcement is a family. I wouldn't arrest my brother or sister, especially on a signal 1.
Not saying the guy should have gotten away free and clear, but it definitely could have been handled internally.
Oh and guess what? Even after the deputy was arrested, there are evil doers out there that are still driving drunk (the nerve!).
IF you believe that EVERY person that has an .08 or above BAC and drives needs to go to jail, then your judgment and decision making is piss poor.

Re: PCSO Deputy arrested for DUI
So the DUI guys in your department are willing to put their butts on the line for a deputy that was found passed out In the MIDDLE OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC LANE, GAVE A FALSE NAME, HAD COMMITTED HIT AND RUNS, Im sorry but SOME REAL deputys and officers have worked too hard to get their standards yanked and value their jobs too much to let someone like that go.
Keep in mind Im sure that in a situation like this supervision had to get involved and they had to do what they had to do as well. That this is what they are there for. It was partially their call to make. And Im more then sure that a supervisors stripes and bars are not worth protecting someone who put themself in that predicament.
The deputy himself did not make the arrest out of malicious intent and was not out to GET ONE OF HIS OWN. No one wants to be put in the situation the arresting deputy was put in. But he had to do what he had to do.
But I damn sure would love to know what dept the above poster is from because If Im ever driving in their jurisdiction and I get hit by an impaired law enforcement officer (and from what i read in the newspaper it goes on a lot) and they get brushed off and given a day on the porch and nothing else, things will get pretty ugly . But thanks guys for setting such a wonderful example to the public.
By the way if the D/S had been found passed out on the SIDE OF THE ROAD with the keys OUT OF the ignition, not the engine running, then MAYBE he would have faired better. But the road he was on was a highly traveled road which poorly lit. It is amazing that he did NOT cause a crash. Does a car parked in your lane of traffic, facing you head on with the engine running, and a drunk driver in the seat who can step on the gas, flooring the car and hitting you head on, scare you much there mister above poster? It sort of scares the hell out of me.

Re: PCSO Deputy arrested for DUI
the above poster needs to proof read their post for errors. i agree that alot of these type incidents could be handled internally. i don't know enough about this particular incident to form an opinion. but, i will say that i don't believe in hammering a fellow cop just to get my thrills or to make myself look like some kind of supercop in the eyes of staff. to the posters from outside this agency, many of our designated traffic units feel like they are royalty. they are offended if asked to respond to a minor traffic crash even if the shift is getting slammed because of constant short staffing. you see, the designated traffic units are another "specialty unit" within the sheriff's office. positions are taken away from patrol shifts to create these units. once created, they forget what their job description is and they want to work fatalities only. many of them also get off on reporting fellow deputies who might speed a little bit, etc.

Re: PCSO Deputy arrested for DUI
I dont know about all you morons... but I for one will NOT end up in AI or under investigation of ANY sort because some idiot stupid d/s or officer decided their STRESS RELIEF was putting down a 6 pack, getting behind the wheel, plowing into a couple of stationary objects, and then taking a nap in the middle of a ROADWAY. You guys do what you want, good luck finding employment in the outside world when your investigation has been completed... (i.e. read the latest about the Pinellas and Pasco County deputies... IM SO PROUD TO HAVE THEM IN MY BROTHERHOOD)

6331 used bad judgement and should have known better, but you cannot deny that he was a 10-8 deputy and was a great cop. Probably a better cop than all you idiots bad mouthing your former brother. He would have had you backs in a tight situation and now you guys are talking smack about one of the greatest deputies in polk history shame on you
