Probably not....but a few million tax payer dollars will help

 

[oldshooterback]

Guess he will get promoted.

From the press release, the officer has been charged-

Bowie, Maryland — On September 12, 2024, at 8:00 a.m., Bowie Police Sergeant Robert Warrington pulled over to help someone he believed was stranded on Collington Road. As the officer approached the vehicle, a man crossed the median and walked toward the officer. During a brief conversation, the officer asked if the man was there to help the stranded motorist, to which the man replied, "No, she's taking me to the hospital." Moments later, he fires a single shot at the man who was getting a hat blown onto the road. The man fell to the ground but was not hit by the bullet. The shot hits a passing vehicle but doesn't injure anyone. Immediately, Warrington starts apologizing. Sergeant Robert Warrington has been indicted by a grand jury on multiple charges, including one count of attempted second-degree murder, one count of first-degree assault, two counts of reckless endangerment and one count of misconduct in office. These charges were announced during a formal news conference on October 24

 

[DOA]

Not the right temperament for being a police officer OR security guard.

I’m sure it’s just a training issue- they failed to mention during his Sargents course that you can’t just randomly pull you issue piece and start shooting the peons .

However SGT . Warrington did go home safe at the end of his shift.

Another mall cop hired "to protect and serve".

 

[Mwalex]

Guess the upside is that the cop is such a bad shot he missed the fellow. Back the blue!!

[hkguns]

Well, he is a Sargent, so you can't blame it on inexperience.

Good thing he can't shoot.

 

[doubloon]

Pretty sure he missed.

He didn't miss the vehicle.

Missed the guy with the guy with the hat but struck the passing vehicle. Or the vehicle struck the bullet depending on your point of view.

 

[TexPatriot]

He walked past the officer without respecting his authority.

Justified shoot miss.

 

[TexPatriot]

He didn't miss the vehicle.

Missed the guy with the guy with the hat but struck the passing vehicle. Or the vehicle struck the bullet depending on your point of view.

If any of the felonys stick, he'll have to practice his marksmanship with a black powder.

 

[NoDopes]

He could have shot the driver for impeding traffic. Now that I think about it... that pedestrian was jaywalking... Totally justified.

 

[232593]

Was he practicing to shoot someone’s dog?

 

[HPIguy]

He didn't miss the vehicle.

Missed the guy with the guy with the hat but struck the passing vehicle. Or the vehicle struck the bullet depending on your point of view.

That's what I meant. He missed the one thing he was supposedly aiming at.

 

[BurtG]

Ain’t nothing gonna change till they start facing criminal charges and penalties that a “regular” person would face

And the judgments come out of their pensions and budgets.

 

[BurtG]

If any of the felonys stick, he'll have to practice his marksmanship with a black powder.

We had a off duty one near me
Someone bumped his rear bumper in stop and go traffic.
He steps out in civilian clothes pull his gun.
Guy who hit his car sees gun takes off
Cop shoots at the guy
Lies and says guy tried to run him over etc
Truth comes out.
Convicted of a prohibiting offense , first or second degree assault I forget.
The department made him a special desk job “head of risk management”. Can’t make this shit up

Look his record up its all been wiped clean a few years later



They need to face the same criminal civil and professional repercussions you or me would.

They don’t
