This is disgusting
Why isnt his Co-worker in trouble as well?
Probably because he looks crooked and might tell on the other crooked cops.
Why does it always seem that the police in these cases always get suspended with pay?
Innocent until proven guilty. Sort of how the system is supposed to work.
@Phix innocent until proven guilty is fine but has nothing to do with the OP’s point that they are suspended WITH pay. If I got suspended at work for less or equal of an infraction I’d be at minimum suspended withOUT pay.
To answer the OP’s question I believe it’s due to police union terms that they have to pay him until proven guilty. Let’s not pretend the union terms aren’t alien to an everday working joe / jane.
@Phix oh ok. Well the video looks pretty bad. And it’s obvious the cop is guilty. But yea still they will get paid for time off basically.
Disgusting. Why would be paid when in any other job, you’d be fired immediately
It’s the union ,they got lawyers and money . If they don’t follow procedures could cost the city lots of money .
Suspended with pay… that’ll teach em!
Suspension with pay , not much of a punishment.
I hope he job back then get an overpass named after him LMAO.
imagine how many others he did this to
partner watching …..ho hum…..just another day at the office……
Fire the cop involved..
Cop responded like a rogue criminal guy
Suspended with pay!!! Sure, that’s going to show him all right!!! They are both disgusting!!!!!!!
Suspensión with pay…
These are vacations!!
That we are paying
Don’t give him hummus for a year he will change.
What do the bootlickers have to say about this?
Lol bye bye dumb 👮♂️
They think nothing applies to them
I hope he loses his work
Did he pay his fare?…if so then the driver’s actions must come into question as well…..no excuse for the cops actions even if the rider didn’t pay…..is he suing the TTC ?
Unbelievable 💔
This is why Toronto police has a disgusting history of treatment for minorities
Suspended with pay is basically vacation time. That’s a joke.
