    Ottawa police officer Const. Nermin Mesic threatened to kill his former tenant, sell the man’s child to pay his late rent and “spill blood.” As a result Mesic will be demoted from a first-class constable to a second-class constable for a period of 12 months. https://twitter.com/OttawaCitizen/status/1303424904721825793 …

        Is this is a union thing? He pled guilty to a criminal charge of threatening. How does he still have a job?

        Well the Kenosha sheriff got to rant on extrajudicially warehousing and sterilizing young black men until they died and keep his job.

        The demotion costs the cop money. How much time in jail would an egregious verbal threat usually get?

        And we wonder why people don’t trust policing in this country.

        "Three years later, in February 2019, Mesic pleaded guilty to the criminal charge of uttering threats and was given an absolute discharge — a sentence that spared him a criminal record." Of *course* the cop was spared a criminal record.
