Fairfax County police officials want to suspend for three weeks without pay the officer who accidentally shot and killed Salvatore J. Culosi, an unarmed optometrist being investigated for sports gambling, according to an internal affairs report.So if someone "accidentally" shot and killed one of your loved ones, Marshall, you'd be out there saying a three week suspension is "too harsh"?
The punishment recommended for Officer Deval V. Bullock in the shooting, which occurred in January, has outraged fellow officers, who said it is too harsh...
"The discipline is very disproportionate to prior [shooting] cases," said Officer Marshall Thielen, president of the Fairfax police officers union.
And this is "disproportionate"? You mean they consider the lives of We the People to be worth less than that? At least we know the value "The Only Ones" place on us.
