Breaking: Officer Casebolt resigns the force amid receiving death threats

[TemplarKormac]

Officer David Eric Casebolt has resigned the McKinney Police Department after 10 years of service. His resignation is due in part because of his actions at a pool party, showing him using excessive force against a 14 year old bikini clad black girl, and due to high amounts of death threats that are being issued against him, according to his attorney.

What cop wants to remain on the force when he has to fear for his life each time he goes on patrol? Who knows, there might be people out there looking for him, singling him out for death.Yes, what he did was excessive, but it didn't kill anyone.

Now remember, each time this happens, it only makes it harder on cops all across America to do their job. One day, they may just stop altogether.

The police officer whose video-recorded actions at a North Texas pool party have drawn national attention and comment has resigned from the police force.

Officer David Eric Casebolt resigned Tuesday from the McKinney Police Department after almost 10 years on the force. His resignation was confirmed by his attorney, Jane Bishkin of Dallas.

A viral video showed him pushing a bikini-clad girl to the ground on Friday and brandishing his gun at other black teens after he and other officers responded to complaints about the pool party at a community-owned McKinney swimming pool.

McKinney Police Chief Greg Conley had placed the 41-year-old former Texas state trooper on administrative leave after the incident.

Bishkin declined to say where Casebolt is now and said he had received death threats. The attorney said she would release more information at a news conference Wednesday.

Officer BooBoo should not have drawn his weapon, period.

End of story.

Casebolt resigned because his bosses sat him down with Internal Affairs and showed all the possible charges that he could face, should he choose not to resign.

Title correction: "After CLAIMING TO be receiving death threats". Big difference.

This from the same guy who saw fit to whip a 14-year-old girl in a bathing suit into the ground for absolutely no reason, draw his weapon on unarmed teenagers for the same no reason, and do everything he could to try to incite a riot. Consider the source.

And good riddance to bad garbage. Fuck him and everything he stands for.

Every cop is at risk every time they put on their uniform. It comes with the job.

"I had 12 officers on the scene, and 11 of them performed according to their training," Conley added.

Even the police chief had no confidence in what that guy did.

None. Waist bands are not illegal, nor a threat to anyone.

He was not reaching for his waistband. He did not charge the officer.

Actually, it makes it harder for cops to act like he did and get away with it. They were teenagers, some of whom crashed a party. There was absolutely no reason for him to act as he did. That the other 11 did not and seemed to try to restrain him is pretty strong evidence he was in the wrong.

Casebolt resigned because his bosses sat him down with Internal Affairs and showed all the possible charges that he could face, should he choose not to resign.

What charges do you believe he would have faced? Excessive use of force? Perhaps, but it rarely results in an indictment. Don't get me wrong, what he did to the girl was excessive. What about pulling his firearm? What I can see, he saw the young man who charged him with his hand behind his wasteband as a credible threat. That, Doc, is a cop acting on his training.

But suddenly, cops cease being humans and become monsters in the eyes of the oh so judgmental public.

Did you not see the picture?

I don't think he's a "monster", I just don't think he's a good cop - and I don't know what charges he may have faced or what the IA guys told him, just relaying what I've read.

 

[TemplarKormac]

None. Waist bands are not illegal, nor a threat to anyone.

No, Mr. Armchair Cop, he reached behind his waistband, with the cop not knowing what he was reaching for, it stands to reason that the cop saw the MOTION as a credible threat. My father was a law enforcement officer, and he can sympathize with exactly what that cop went through in that situation.

 

[theDoctorisIn]

He was not reaching for his waistband. He did not charge the officer.

Did you not see the picture?

Did you watch the video?

The person that photo is claiming was "charging" had already started "retreating" before Casebolt pulled his gun.

Every cop is at risk every time they put on their uniform. It comes with the job.

So, by that reasoning one should be more sympathetic to the cop? Correct? So why in previous cases has the cop become the villain?

Even the police chief had no confidence in what that guy did.

No of course not. What would happen if he defended him? The same thing that has happened to Officer Casebolt.
