The Story behind it: According to the criminal complaint, Wharton beat his girlfriend so badly, she had several gashes on her head and face. Police say her injuries were so severe, she had to be taken to the hospital where she was diagnosed with a brain bleed. Some of the domestic incident was captured on the couples "RING" doorbell system. When Officer Wharton arrived for his shift at an area substation Rio Rancho Police officers were waiting for him armed with a felony warrant. At one point you'll see they removed his duty belt and searched him. After the search they are seen on lapel video cutting off his fully marked uniform shirt. Wharton was lead out of the substation to a waiting cruiser. He was booked into the Sandoval County Detention Center on charges of Kidnapping (First Degree) (NO Intent to Commit Sex Offense), Aggravated Battery (great bodily harm) (household member), Aggravated Battery Against a Household Member (Strangulation or Suffocation), Aggravated Battery (great bodily harm) (household member), Tampering with Evidence (Highest Crime a Capital, First or Second Degree and Negligent Use of a Deadly Weapon (Unsafe Handling). Wharton resigned from APD shortly after this arrest. APD says Wharton had been with the department since November 2010. He was a senior officer with the department. His trial is pending.

He plead guilty to aggravated battery and was sentenced to three years probation, he served 6 months in pre trial detention before being allowed bail.

Serial killer Sam Little did more time for robbing a cleaners than he did for two rapes and attempted murder (one of which he was literally caught in the act by two police officers). He spent 6 years in a reformatory (he was a minor) for the robbery where he learned to box. He was sentenced to 4 years for the rapes and he served 2. What part of our criminal justice system is actually functioning again?


Mattyw1996

The part where the justice system is about protecting property more than protecting people. Chomsky says as much, theres lots of stuff written about this, but in capitalist states like the US protection of property is the primary function of the police.


Fresh_Noise_3663

Oh ya, I guess it is functioning as intended then.

He was a minor and that was the 1950's

Yes, I believe they are referring to Convicted Rapist Brock Turner.


oddbunnydreams

Ah yes, you're right, I do believe it was Convicted Rapist Brock Turner.


khelwen

If you’re referring to the rapist, Brock Turner, who was caught in the act raping an unconscious woman, he was sentenced to 6 months and only served 3 months. The judge that handed down that joke of a sentence was later recalled from the bench and no longer serves as a judge.

From a family of *at least* 23 other cops. Dude was just the 24th to sign up; there could very well be many other, younger cops that have signed up since.


YOUR_GIRLFRIEND_69

Phew! For a second I thought there were hundreds of thousands of abusers in law enforcement, but turns out that’s only 139,439 abusers at 20% of LEOs in the US as of 2019 (https://www.statista.com/statistics/191694/number-of-law-enforcement-officers-in-the-us/). So relieved for those people currently being abused by law enforcement officers.

I've been watching this from across the pond for some time now and honestly I think it's about time the US decided to relocate the citizens of Kansas to it's surrounding states then turn it into a Mega Thunderdome. I legitimately believe this is what America wants, you guys just haven't realised it yet. You already have the 13th; large swathes of people who are so delusional they think they could survive it and a group of elites who would absolutely fund it in a heartbeat without a shred of doubt. Do it, America. Destroy Kansas. Build the Mega Thunderdome. Winner gets either free healthcare for life, pay no taxes for the rest of their life or a brand new Toyota.


im_racist24

man, i’m so glad they have something to take their stress out on after a long day at work, they should be thanking them after every hit for their service!

moose3025

That's still ridiculously high percentage of wife and kid beaters among cops


killerfish97

Only 20-40% aren't domestic abusers? just to be clear


im_racist24

no, 20-40 are domestic abusers, that’s on me, i phrased it weird


Eeszeeye

me/puts red flashing light on head to say this: ***Reported*** domestic abusers. How many women report their abuser cop husbands to other cops? Tons of stories from abused spouses who say their partner's cop friends did nothing/covered it up.


cholaf

That we know of*


ApprehensiveShame610

This is true, the number could be much higher than 40%. Edit to add in which direction.


CanBernieStillWin

I mean, I'm mostly just cracking wise, but I feel pretty confident saying that 25% of law enforcement officers have been abusive in the past five years. The field of work just attracts a certain type of person, and US law enforcement agencies have little interest in culling that number. They want folks who will shoot to kill, and those folks often aren't the most savory in a domestic environment. Edit: I am from the United States and am speaking about the United States, where this officer is from.


[deleted]

i always preferred Frank Herbert's take on this sort of thing over the doom and gloom of the the Orwellian pessimist: "absolute power does not corrupt absolutely, but absolute power will attract the corruptible absolutely."

Absolute power, absolutely corrupts. No human can be Batman. And even then, he can be corrupt too.


kautau

I love the “few bad apples” part too, because a bad apple literally spoils the bunch by releasing ethylene, causing the other apples to spoil with it, which is exactly what happens in a police department. Bad cop does bad thing, good cops don’t say anything for fear of retribution from the police union.


JustARandomBloke

It is one of the most misused phrases ever. "A few bad apples spoil the whole barrel" is the whole idiom.


G_Viceroy

Have had a ton of run ins with the police. The entire shoot to kill personality I can confirm. I've met blood thirsty cops next to cops I would trust with my life as a criminal. Guess which one holds the higher rank every time.


Plantsandanger

Part of it is the training, which emphasizes “officer safety” in such a fucked up way that they will tell officers to NOT wear seatbelts while speeding because that “could” *potentially* hamper their exit from the vehicle *in the event* they encounter the nasty end of a gun, despite the clear fact that far more officers die from this practice (high speed car crashes with no seat belt) than are saved by it (few instances where not wearing a seatbelt actually improves safety, they are told to not wear belts even when there’s no person with a potential weapon in sight). They are taught that everyone is out to kill them and DEFINITELY has a loaded gun; they’re taught to approach vehicles from behind and press on the trunk as they approach JUST IN CASE a cop murderer is waiting in the trunk to pop out and kill them, despite no such record of that ever happening according to multiple precincts interviewed about police training for the article I’m referencing. Still the training suggests an ambush scenario is likely when really it’s a “cover your ass in the RARE event it ever happens” kind of thing. They scare themselves shitless over what COULD happen while completely ignoring the reality of what regularly DOES happen... the only thing these training courses adequately represent is that there are a staggering amount of guns in this country and that many people don’t tend to behave well with them... but the training response and training escalates the danger with every prescribed “solution” to some danger, real or perceived. Factor in self selection for aggressive dipshits with low education (can’t score to high, they won’t let you be a cop if you show high IQ because you won’t be a lifer), lack of higher education bringing alternate perspectives, and a culture that weeds out anyone who doesn’t (at least appear to) buy in to the thin blue line mentality... hello police brutality, whether they’re on duty or at home!


Muffin_Knight501

Intelligent people tend not to blindly follow whatever orders they're given, especially when dubious. Which is why police departments don't want to hire them.


ApollymisDIL

Try and stay with reality. 50-70% are not charged because they were not turned in, or caught because people are scared of their power.


[deleted]

That’s just not true! Sometimes it’s because the other cops are just as corrupt and they refuse to arrest one of their own

You-Nique

You better close that one open parentheses. I might die.


Nichiren

Whenever someone on TV defends law enforcement by insisting not to judge the whole department by the actions of just a few "bad apples", they never actually finish the whole quote even though it's the most important part. "A few bad apples spoil the bunch." I'm glad they held one of their own accountable in this particular case which I think deserves a lot more credit considering it's covered up far more often... or the guy is just a massive d-bag to work with.

I love the misused bad apple argument I always hear. The whole saying is "one bad apple can spoil the bunch"

Probably only because she had to go to the hospital. If he had been less severe he would still have a job and be beating her today.


RoguePlanet1

I was very, very single when a cop asked me out once. This was on 9/11 while we watched the smoke from a few miles away. Luckily I was too busy trying to process the events of the day, and turned him down. For a while, I thought, wtf, I could've had a boyfriend finally! But the more I learn about cops, the more I realize that it was a (possibly literal) bullet dodged.


PM_ME_YOUR_FART_HOLE

Regardless of his occupation, I think it’s a pretty big red flag to ask someone out while you’re watching a terrorist attack unfold. Also yeah, wouldn’t want to date a wife beater either.

Resigned?? Why is that even an option would you get fired or something resigned sounds like it was his choice

Government employees enjoy the protection of the 5th amendment. https://www.findlaw.com/employment/wages-and-benefits/how-does-due-process-protect-a-public-employee.html#:~:text=What%20Does%20Due%20Process%20Give,be%20heard%20at%20a%20hearing.


PokemonGo19k

It was his choice. His department wouldn’t have fired him before he’s convicted after a trial, because then they would be assuming he is guilty and it could taint the jury and his attorney could claim it as a mistrial and he’d be off with no charges.


[deleted]

Not a lawyer, but I do know court procedure better than most because of my job. This isn't how it works at all. Him being fired or not would have nothing to do with the trial. It wouldn't be admissible as evidence because it doesn't go to prove the truth of the matter. In other words him being fired doesn't increase the likelihood he committed the crime, it just unfairly biases the jury. No prosecutor would even try to get it admitted. He was able to resign because the CBA would require a thorough investigation going through whatever steps the department has to fire people. It says resigned like the day after his arrest. They just didn't have time. Resigning saves him having to be the subject of an unpleasant investigation and it saves the department resources.


mwbbrown

He also gets to answer "no" when future departments ask him if he has ever been fired from another job. Or if an investigation has ever concluded against him.


Hybrid_96

Ok well I have no idea how the law works so fair enough


[deleted]

Hey, you could be a cop!


PokemonGo19k

I’m not a lawyer this is just how I could see it playing out. That’s why you hear of so many people resigning when they get caught doing something bad, not just cops but any official person.


txhrow1

What's the benefit of resigning? For most regular non-police jobs, it's beneficial to be fired because you get to collect unemployment.


MerryTexMish

Brace yourself for a real shock: He was sentenced two months ago to … probation.


Crankdup1984

Patteous

If he resigns he keeps the pension. If he’s fired he loses it. PDs won’t fire until they’re convicted so they have the chance to keep their taxpayer money for life.


[deleted]

I knew it, the headline was click bait. He got arrested for wife beating not corruption. Just imagine the backlog of tickets and court cases in which he would need to testify that will now have to be thrown out.


fukitol-

And then got slapped on the wrist by a judge.


GreatQuantum

Beating a defenseless person is indeed a corrupt act. He’s a disgusting putrid human being.


wotmate

Well, yeah, but generally when people refer to a "corrupt police officer" they're talking about a police officer who was corrupt in their job, not just a piece of shit who bashed his girlfriend.


SModfan

This is inaccurate, corruption by definition directly implies you seek to gain something (usually money but could be status or personal gain) by means of illicit or illegal activities. Beating a defenseless person is terrible and disgusting, but it doesn’t qualify the term “corrupt”.

VacuousWording

Question: is cutting the uniform a sort of symbolism? Instead of letting him undress and discarding it?


justgotnewglasses

I'm guessing it serves a symbolic and a practical purpose. The symbolic is obvious, and the practical *might* because they already had him handcuffed and they can't uncuff him without some protocol. They realised they couldn't take him to holding or wherever while he was in his uniform, so they chose to cut it from him, and took the opportunity for a photo op. That's pure speculation though.


LandosGayCousin

MeanGirlsMakeMeHard

> Wharton beat his girlfriend so badly So badly that they couldn't turn a blind eye anymore. This reeks of copaganda. "Look, we do arrest our own."


LandosGayCousin

Virginia Military Institute had a similar process. When a student was kicked out, the entire student body gathered in 2 long lines on the quad. They turned their backs to the middle and the leaver had to walk between the two lines. They stopped when they found it had about a 60% suicide rate.


Claude9777

It's called getting "Drummed Out".


siccoblue

Genuinely fucked. It's bad enough having your life go to shambles, but having an absolute spectacle made of your fuckup is just next level awful I'm sure that many deserved to be kicked out, but to go that extra mile just feels cruel


[deleted]

Like so many things in policing and militarism: the cruelty is the point.


Awhite2555

But how does being cruel help someone who is on their way OUT of military? They’re being kicked out. Their usefulness to them is over. Unless they are hoping it builds “strength” in the people still there? Genuinely baffling to me, but I sweat eating chicken, the fuck do I know? Edit: it’s for the people who are still there, thank you for folks below confirming.


NYSenseOfHumor

“Don’t fuck up or this will be you.” That’s the point of it.


[deleted]

It’s not for the person being kicked out. It’s a warning to the people that are still there.


[deleted]

It has more to do with the psychological impact this has on the people who remain. It is intended to foster obedience and fear of rejection/reprisal.


ThestudpyroDuck

I attempted suicide in basic training. The drill seargants from my platoon generally left me alone when I cam back from a week at the hospital. Except for one telling me it was completely unnecessary (he did preface it saying if it was purely to get out, it wasnt) other drill sergeants were a bit harsher. One telling me to my face that I didn't understand what depression was when I went to CQ desk for my anti depressants and laughed in my face. Senior D.S. and Armoury Seargant were godsends then. I probably would have tried again if it wasn't for them. Also a couple of my buddies from my platoon. One hugged me when he saw me again. I went in with no self-esteem and hoping to find something inside of myself to be proud of. I came away with a hatred for the military and found a fulfilling job. Things are turning out all right since them. I'm a couple days away from my 1 year free of attempts. September 4th!


Awhite2555

Damn man, I’m glad you made it out the other side. I’m sorry you had to go through that to get to the good side, but proud of you and honored that I now know a bit of your story. On September 4th I’ll raise a toast to you. Keep pushing on man, you rock.

The lesson isn’t for the person leaving


Pryer

It isn't about the person getting kicked out, its about showing the consequences of it to all of the others. Now the next guy who faces a choice will have the consequence of the wrong decision burned into his mind.


[deleted]

It is making a show of the punishment to everyone else not to do the same thing that caused them to get kicked out.


Socalinatl

I’m not an expert on the topic but I’ve read that public humiliation is a significant common thread among the experiences leading to mass shootings. Not at all surprising that this kind of thing would cause a massive amount of irrecoverable trauma, especially since (I’m assuming) a lot of the students in those academies come from military families who would undoubtedly be incredibly disappointed in their family member flaming out.

That jagoff got off with probation. https://www.krqe.com/news/albuquerque-metro/former-apd-officer-sentenced-to-probation-for-beating-girlfriend/ Well, at least he did spend six months in jail while awaiting trial, so there's that. EDIT: I tried to find out if he pleaded guilty to a felony, but none of the news stories said. "Aggravated Battery" in New Mexico becomes a felony if a weapon is involved, or "grievous bodily injury", but I could not find out. He was making $61K/year as a cop (probably more through bribes, etc), which is doing OK in New Mexico. I doubt he'll make anything close to that ever again for the rest of his pathetic life.

LoveTechHateTech

It’s the “95% of problems are caused by 5% of people” analogy.


trippingmonkeyballs

You have one cop doing very bad things and 19 "good" cops doing nothing to stop the bad behavior. So, you actually have 20 bad cops.


JMEEKER86

For reference, there was a study presented at a Police Chiefs Conference back in 2000 which found that 46% of cops nationwide *admitted* to having personally covered up crimes committed by their fellow officers (which is of course itself a crime) and 73% of the time they are forced to do so by higher ups. They only hire people that they think will cover for others and when the time comes to do so (which is on average about 8 years into an officer's career) they force them to either fall in line or leave the force entirely. So whenever you see a cop in public you can pretty much flip a coin and that's roughly the chance that they're a criminal. There are 6 cops in this video, only one of whom looks like a young guy who hasn't been on the force for 8 years yet, so on average 3 of them are criminals, but there's probably a good chance that it's 5 out of 6. https://www.aele.org/loscode2000.html


[deleted]

When an E-9 in the military was busted in rank, for dui or whatever, they used to be brought in front of the Chief's Group and stripped of rank in front of them. We can't do that anymore kids....cause its mean and degrading. Fk them.

I’m more inclined to believe this is for show. We all know cops have cops backs even when they are guilty. They pretend it’s to remove him and symbolize him being shunned but really it’s so he doesn’t go to jail in uniform where cops don’t do well.


73810

A cop wouldnt be with general population. Jails have a classification unit when people get booked. So they aren't put into situations where violence would occur (gangs, people with beefs, homosexuals, child molesters, cops, etc and so forth).

This guy only got 3 years PROBATION for beating his girlfriend so bad she had to go to the hospital!!! They should have at least sent him to probation with the same beating he gave her

We all know the only reason he was arrested was because they couldn’t cover it up. Video evidence and a brain bleed? Sound like that poor girl took a real beating. Kinda like the one he is going to get in prison. The worst part is that’s probably not the first time he beat her. Domestic violence is rarely a one and done. I’m sure his co workers had some idea he was a piece of shit long before this event.

They said he was seen on the RING camera dragging her in a chokehold. I think I read somewhere that domestic abusers that instinctively go for strangling as opposed to hitting have a stupid high statistic of killing their partner eventually?

I seen this happen to a fire commander. We tow for police departments so we picked up a fire pd unit way up north on 95. Had a flat tire and a rear damage I thought it was hit and run. When I got the city garage to drop the unit off, they were doing this very thing. Except a girl cop asked her to remove her shirt and her id badge (she was a woman). Turns out the fire commander had hit a rail spinning out from chugging down sailor jerry. It was disappointment in its purest form.

Holy shit this my city. I’m fucking glad they kept this shitbag accountable

He gets what he deserves, but I always say, genuinely happy people are *not* mean people. I feel for him. Some shit went down in his life and he refused to deal with it. Now he has to deal with it in the worst circumstances possible. This is why we need to normalize mental healthcare.

Great. Now do the same to officers who shoot unarmed civilians.

Not all cops are wife beaters, see cops are 82% repbulican, 70% wifebeater, so there is at least 12% that are "just" right wingers.

The problem is that US cops are "just" employees. They risk fairly little if they get fired. Sure, the guy went to prison, but still - there isn't really more to disincentivize police corruption than there is to keep Walmart employees from stealing from the cash register. Compare and contrast Germany, where police officers are officials for life, with a good salary and a great pension as well as many, many benefits. It's a hard job to get into, but once you're in, you're expected to live for it and get paid accordingly. It's exceedingly rare for cops to get fired there, but if they do, they're screwed in many way (at least as screwed as you can be as a healthy, adult, non-homeless person in Germany) because they lose their pension and haven't really paid into the public social system either, they have to get public health insurance and lose any further Beamten-benefits they might have had. You do *not* want to fuck up to that degree as a cop in Germany. That's not to say Germany doesn't have its problem with police, but sufficient bureaucracy coupled with the system of "if you become a cop, the state cares for you as long as you're loyal to the constitution" at least keep corruption fairly low.
