Those officers should be fired, too. I do security for a living, and I would 100% have not detained her.
You’re held to a higher standard than most cops, I assure you.
So are pizza delivery drivers. And dog groomers. And cashier's. And....
You do security, you're not a cop. Totally different mindset, don't compare yourself to pigs.
In a good way.
And you would've 100% lost your job in the lovely free market of the US. I'm not sure what the laws surrounding 'contempt' are in the US, but I'd guess that's what he's charged her with and it's a pretty grey area, so you as a court room bailiff, are not going to be 'investigating' and taking moral stands at work, she likely was the 10th person they've arrested and half of them don't even know why the were radioed to come in and 'assist with an arrest'
The judge is a straight cunt though
I would gladly go to my union over this and get my paid time off until I'm returned to duty.
Well yeah you think you would as you sit there on you moral high horse but as I said, half of them probably don't even know why she's being arrested. You come into a room and see her flailing around, fighting your colleagues and you're going to start asking questions and making phone calls?
Doubt it.
Even in-between cases, there are bailiffs in the courtroom, so at least a 1 if them knew she did nothing. But go ahead and continue talking about stuff you clearly don't know about.
I don't think that comment had the impact you thought it did.
Good luck to you with your abysmal employment laws!
