Now let me first say I am an agressive person when it comes to my opinion, so if I offended anyone let me appologize now, that bein' said, as I stated in the above post I believe there are some uncouthe officers out there and I have had the "pleasure" of working with them and telling them exactly what I think, then bein' reprimanded for notifying a supervisor of there "behavior", after said incident I found that I was a diamond in the rough so to speak on my shift, I quickly began feeling uncomfortable with the few that weren't on the up and up, I discussed this with m,y wife and we both decided in 2003 that I was done after that i SOON QUIT. I later heard one was arrested for child pornography, and another for stealing a dog, unreal!! I was so glad to be away from it, but I still defend myself and the other honest officers out there.
I am so sorry for your wife's trouble madbean, unfortunately it does happen however therte is more to it than simple profiling
in my opinion, so the next time just remember patrol car numbers if the wife is affraid just keep her wits and then go to the chief, or sheriff, Patrol car numbers are on the sides and rear, and top of roof on patrol cars, some display officers personell ID on the front tag so that helps too.
if you guys ever need help lemme know, especially here in georgia, I gots my code book and can answer questions, can't fix tickets, I am not a judge, but I may be able to give you avenues to explore when a questionable activity has occurred
