News Traffic Cop Offers To Pay Half Woman’s Ticket.

Posted by Matt Davis on Thu, May 17 at 10:16 AM

A woman fined $109 last June for speeding on the Morrison Bridge says the cop who caught her offered to pay half the ticket. trafficticket.jpgTRAFFIC TICKETS: Now with 50% off!

The un-named cop’s unusual offer came to light at the cops’ Citizens Review Committee meeting on Tuesday night, as part of a complaint made by the woman, who alleged the officer had failed to properly advise her on her options in court.

After the woman filed a complaint with the Independent Police Review, the officer contacted her by email offering to pay for half the ticket. His actions were found to constitute a breach of the Bureau’s professional conduct rules by its Performance Review Board, although the woman’s original complaint about receiving bad advice was turned down because it is not a cop’s job to give legal advice.

Maybe he took pity on her because she's only a half woman.

Wow! And Rosie wanted to dumbdown the PoPo
standards for new hires. What will it be
like then? More and worst than this sort
of Oinkery? Way to go Rosie, you're doing
great job in "management" of the PoPiggies

Damn. Too late for the half-woman joke.
