Maybe OT, and maybe not...CHP officers arrested in murder plot....

[Ten Thousan Marbles]

The maybe not OT part is for those of us that think a DA in Centre County could possibly have been done in by law enforcement officers....

They ain't all saints, it seems.

You mean "California's Finest". What a laugh that was after 9-11 when all cops, especially NY cops, ascended to some level of sainthood.

Some are great, some are scumbags who are provided government paid for weapons, clothes and vehicles.

Not unlike Corbett's son-in-law who was making a 100 grand a year, and was caught on camera pinching money from charity jars.

Turd.

No job is made up of all saints. Not lawyers. Not doctors. Not priests. Not CEOs. Not ditch diggers. When one of those people or others are revealed as dirty or criminal the news rarely makes it outside the local area. But when a cop is bad the news often explodes nationally and much of the public projects the bad cop's actions onto the 99.9% of cops who aren't crooks. It's a strange phenomenon to me.

Yeah. A plot by state cops to commit murder and cover it up is hardly newsworthy!

Please point out where I said it wasn't newsworthy. You missed my point which was the media and public eat up news about bad cops but aren't nearly as interested if the same acts are carried out by anyone else. This is proven by the initial post which points out cops were involved yet ignores the fact an attorney was also charged.

Please. You should just stop now. I have done you the courtesy of not attacking your outlandish premise. Consider that you ought to leave it at that.

I guess i read a different article then you did. What I got from the article is that is was an attorney who plotted the murder not the cops

An arrest warrant says attorney Frank Carson orchestrated the killing and enlisted the help of two brothers who own a liquor store in Turlock.

"CHP officers Scott McFarlane and Eduardo Quintanar are suspected of obstructing the investigation. Former CHP Officer Walter Wells is suspected in the killing."

You said it was a plot by cops to commit murder, The plotting was done by the attorney. Why no mention of the attorney in your post and only about the cops?

And he also tries to link cops to the disappearance of the missing DA with no evidence. Calling out the attorney doesn't fit his agenda that cops are bad

99.9%? Probably a bit high. I don't know what media you are following, but around these parts all you hear is about how wonderful our "officers of the law" are. You are almost expected to bow down in their presence.

My OP used the word "possibly." Maybe you cannot handle nuance. IDK.

If the cops were not involved in the plot, why in the world have they been arrested?

Are you saying that all three of them are innocent? Seriously, you are really stretching credulity with this.

I think the only 99.99% about cops that we know almost with certainty is that is the percentage that do not blow the whistle on wrongdoing by those carrying the shield.

I never said the 2 cops weren't involved or are innocent. The other one was a former cop. I was pointing out that you only called out the cops and said nothing about the lawyer who was the one that allegedly orchestrated the hit. You will notice I said allegedly as I still believe in innocent until proved guilty and not being convicted by the press or social media

As for the issue with the police "possibly" being involved with the disappearance of Gricar you are the one who said you believed that cops were involved. Not sure what that had to do with the article you posted and why it was mentioned

Your second paragraph is nonsense. Don't be so obtuse.

Your first paragraph is worse.

"The CHP officers were all associated with Daljit Singh Atwal and Baljit Singh Athwal, owners of Pop N Cork liquor store in Turlock, who often entertained them with parties in a back room of their store; the officers allegedly tried to intervene when the brothers came under suspicion.

Carson represented Baljit Athwal in criminal and civil cases in 2008.

CHP officers Scott McFarlane and Eduardo Quintanar are suspected of obstructing the investigation. They are accused of lying about their involvement with the liquor store and the two brothers who own it.

Former CHP Officer Walter Wells is suspected of murder.

All three CHP officers withheld information during the investigation, and Wells may have been in possession of Kauffman's cellphone after he is believed to have been killed, according to the affidavit.

"The entire department and I are appalled at the mere thought that one former and two current employees played any role in this incident," CHP Commissioner Joe Farrow said.

Wells left the CHP several weeks ago, and the other two officers have been placed on administrative leave,
Farrow said."

You got that? While desperately hoping that you could successfully play the "former CHP card," you neglected to determine that the murder was in 2012, and the cop was on the force until just a couple of weeks ago.

I really don't give a flying F who instigated the thing. What I see is a plot to murder and to cover up a murder for almost 3 years that involved a bunch of folks....including 3 guys who were active CHPs while those crimes were being committed.

And, if the state police of California can have troopers that act like this, so can any state. Only those living in a comforting haze would insist otherwise.
