Protect and serve, right?

What we needed was protect and swerve!

Since he's a cop that means no charges right? Just a child with life altering injuries?

Criminal charges, no. He (and the department/local government) are still going to get their asses sued in civil court though.

The headline literally says he was charged. He was off duty. Also, even if he was on duty, Colorado does not have qualified immunity.

A cop? Not following the law? How could this be?!

so he in his Tahoe and a dude in a Nissan are driving like idiots together, probably in a road rage.. Tahoe wrecks 2 cars directly and cripples the girl.. the Nissan also wrecks and flips and lands on its roof..

No info about suing the cop? I would try to get a massive payout to make the life of my child at the very least stress free of financial hardship.

She's still being so upbeat about it. She's a strong kid who doesn't deserve this at all.

And all they're going to do is look into if disciplinary actions are required. If.
