I find a lot of cops have problems admitting they could very well be in the wrong.

Hehhhhhh, moderators.  This cop has a hard-on for the world, made an ass of himself and needs to demolish an innocent fool's life rather than admit he had made a mistake (meaning driving too closely and startling the driver into braking suddenly thereby landing the essentially uninjured motorcycle cop into the backseat of a convertible with his legs in the air...)   Lookingup

Hitchcock hit his brakes, and Parente rear-ended Hitchcock's car, which sent Parente somersaulting through the air. He landed upside-down, his boots sticking in the air, in the backseat of Hitchcock's top-down convertible.

Am I the only one that couldn't stop laughing at that part?

"The assault has caused me some intimacy problems with my spouse."

I'm thinking this police officer is not all there, in more ways than one.

Hi there!

"I'm confident I have sufficient evidence to win a conviction."
What evidence is that? Buggedout
Parente, 6'1" and armed with his duty pistol, claimed to be so afraid of Hitchcock — a gray-haired, fairly out-of-shape man in a Hawaiian shirt — that Parente feared Hitchcock would snatch the shotgun from his fallen motorcycle.

WHAT THE HELL?!
"He's lying about both those issues," Hitchcock says.

Hitchcock says Parente's motorcycle was straddling the middle lane and the No. 1 lane — next to the median — when Hitchcock "pulled up squarely in the No. 2 lane, [and] centered [my car] as best I could with him right there."

When the light turned green, Hitchcock says, he accelerated in a normal manner, but "Parente turned on the siren while I was changing gears from first to second. I never got above 20 miles an hour."

The two eyewitness drivers closest to the collision supported Hitchcock's version.

Kim Weller of Manhattan Beach told Strosnider that she saw "a gray convertible in the No. 2 lane next to a police motorcycle in the No. 1 lane. When the light turned green, the convertible accelerated normally. The police motorcycle immediately pulled in behind the convertible and activated its lights."

Denise Bustamente of Redondo Beach told Strosnider she "noticed a police motorcycle near her, perhaps straddling the No. 1 and 2 lanes. In the No. 2 lane was a convertible. As the convertible left the intersection with a green light, the police motorcycle moved in behind it."

Beck says he's eager to put the facts in front of a jury. "It's a crime for Parente to file a false police report. And he's their chief witness."

The day after the wreck, Parente was reported to have "soft tissue" injuries. Since June he's been on paid medical leave, and apparently not having much fun. "The assault has caused me some intimacy problems with my spouse," he wrote at the end of his report. He did not respond to several calls from L.A. Weekly seeking comment.

"He can hide now, but he'll have to answer in court," Beck says.

Hell yeah, dat cop be pullin some bulls**ttin ona innocent guy. Thumbup

Don't you have to pass a psych exam to get on the force?
