Off-Duty Cop Puts Scare on Would-Be Romeo
Filed under: News, In The News, Weird But True, Funny Stuff, New In Pop Culture
You catch some punk having sex with your teenage daughter, so you go over to his house and scare the you-know-what out of him.
Wait. It gets better. You happen to be a full-blown, uniform-wearing, gun-toting cop. So you slap the cuffs on him and tell him the district attorney will probably throw the book at him. That ought to really put the fear of God into the little %$#@!
Sound like a good idea?
It apparently did to an off-duty San Jose, Calif., motorcycle cop. At least it did at the time. Now he's looking down the business end of an internal affairs investigation.
The San Jose Mercury reports the officer stormed over to the house of a 15-year-old boy who had allegedly had sex with the officer's 14-year-old stepdaughter. The boy's stepfather used his cell phone to capture the Aug. 30 incident on video.
According to the newspaper, the officer showed up in uniform and slapped the cuffs on the boy.
"Not a good thing that the person you had sex with is a cop's daughter," the officer says on the video viewed by editors of the Mercury News. "The district attorney will probably file charges."
The officer removed cuffs and left.
The boy's parents, in a complaint to the San Jose Police Department, said they did not give the officer permission to scare or threaten their son. They also described his manner as angry and abusive.
After the parents filed their complaint, their son was arrested for unlawful sexual intercourse -- a misdemeanor for consensual sex between two minors of a similar age.
The Mercury News reports Santa Clara County prosecutors are reviewing the case, but have sent it back to the police department for more information.
Meanwhile, the officer's lawyer, Terry Bowman, tells the newspaper his client was just trying to scare the boy and never pretended to arrest him.
"He is doing (the boy's parents) a favor by attempting to lecture and educate the young man so he doesn't continue to go down the wrong path," Bowman tells the Mercury News.
The names in the case are not being released to protect the identities of the teenagers.

knickfan212 said...You and me both!! I'am afraid to think of what I would've done.Especially if I was the parent of the girl..To be honest,if I was the parent of the boy I would really only be upset by their ages and no condom.I know that's wrong but I guess it's a man thing.

Linda Klauschie said...The police officer should have dealt with his step-daughter and then called the parents of the boy. According to the article, the teens had mutual agreed upon sex, so they were both to blame. Teenage sex has been around forever; nothing new there. The police officer used his position for personal purposes, which is wrong. If anyone should be punished, it should be him.

CCinRI said...Sorry Ride...everyone but you probably knows that your/the preachers daughter is a slut and has a thing for landscapers who she doesn't have to pretend to care about. Language barriers really can be a girls best friend.

bobbie said...I have to laugh at you men who think your daughters are just victims. Today it's the young boys that are being the victims of young girls aggressively seeking sex. If you don't believe me, spend some time in a Jr High School and see just who is pursuing whom. You might be shocked. I know I was! Your daughters aren't as innocent as you think they are for certain. The roles have turned dramatically.

1) a psychological review
2) anger management classes and
3) a review of what is and is not appropriate use of his office

Big bully thug is all he is....typical....I actually thought it was a Nazi stormtrooper with the boots and all. I wonder if he is going to arrest his daughter, too. They are BOTH 'guilty', if you want to take the letter of the law seriously. Pathetic.

LOL,

Wow that sounds like a typical Anglo name. Do you get "BW" monogrammed on your sheets, too?
You know the white seekend sheets you use for the cross burnings?
It's too bad we can't deport all the white meth users to another country. I am sure you'd have to go to bat for some family members

Terri said...These parents should be thankful that the Dad was calmly trying to tewach him a lesson, most Dads would have probably done worse. As far as the daughter goes she too needs to be punished for doing this while she was working babysitting for other peoples children. That boy got off so easy, now that his parents complained I hope he has a police charges. Parents with this attitude are whats wrong today.

Aida said...This isn't the whole video and the video I watched this morning, the boy's stepfather was commenting to the boy, something like Are you listening to him? as if he was going along with it! And, I'm sorry cop or no cop, if you don't have a warrant, you are not coming into my home to pick on my child!

rinsmith said...God, you people are a bunch of mean, nasty racists! What those two teens were doing was not illegal or at least it shouldn't be. I feel sorry for that poor girl and I wouldn't be surprised to learn that her dad is an abusive S.O.B. What he did was wrong! He's the one who should be handcuffed and put in jail!
And here's another newsflash for you: TEENAGERS HAVE SEX! Whether you want them to or not; so the best you can do is teach them to be responsible and can you tell them to wait but there's no guarantee they will. You conservatives always whine about big government but some reason you have no problem with government in your bedroom!
