It happened at a protest in Detroit outside The Huntington Place where Biden delivered a speech at NAACP Dinner in Detroit.

Former Weymouth police officer Justin Chappell, aged 43, pleaded guilty to assaulting a man in his custody by punching him about 13 times without justification.

The incident, which occurred nearly two years ago on July 2, 2022, involved Chappell responding to a call about an allegedly intoxicated man causing a disturbance at a home.

After arresting the man, Chappell punched him repeatedly with a closed fist while trying to place him in the police cruiser, resulting in pain and visible injuries to the man’s head.

Chappell’s guilty plea was for one count of deprivation of rights under color of law, according to federal prosecutors. U.S. District Court Judge Allison Burroughs has scheduled sentencing for July 16.

The charge can lead to a sentence of up to 10 years in prison, up to three years of supervised release, and a fine of up to $250,000. Sentencing will be based on the U.S. sentencing guidelines and statutes.

In some states, you are not legally obligated to identify yourself to the police.

But, as this video suggests, there may be consequences for not doing so, i.e., the police may take efforts to determine who you are.

Or try to determine who you are not, and stop investigating you. So, for many people, complying with an officer's request for identification may be easier than not honoring the request.

Whether some officers may abuse this for bad reasons is of course possible.

Yes, identification enforcement/"inquiry" is a classic variant of DWB.

MELROSE, Mass. —
A Melrose, Massachusetts, firefighter is facing multiple charges stemming from an identity theft, according to court documents.

The man, whose true identity is unknown and referred to as "John Doe" in court documents, is accused of stealing the identity of man who died over 20 years ago and using that name to apply for a driver’s license and passport, as well as attend the fire academy.

Doe’s passport application was denied after it was suspected he submitted false information, including a birth certificate and a recently issued driver’s license, and an investigation was launched.

It was later determined Doe used information about Henry Huang, a man who died in 2002. Doe is also accused of using the name Truong Nguyen.

Doe was hired as a Melrose firefighter in January 2024 upon graduating from the Massachusetts Firefighting Academy. Doe also obtained a Massachusetts EMT-Paramedic certification under the false name in 2023.

The investigation revealed Doe is actually a legal permanent resident of Vietnam, who was ordered deported in 1995 after convictions of larceny and embezzlement, among other charges.

Doe, while using the Nguyen alias, was arrested in 2010 for stealing more than $46,000 from the Norwell Firefighters Union, where he was an officer of the union, according to court documents.

Residents file complaint that Lafayette Police wrongfully arrest two men without warrant

LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WLFI) — Residents are filing a complaint against the Lafayette Police Department after a wellness check gone wrong. WLFI has obtained video showing multiple Lafayette Police Officers entering the home without a warrant, and arresting people inside for resisting law enforcement.

On May 21, multiple Lafayette police officers entered William Neal's home without a warrant. Neal said the incident stems from a wellness check in which Lafayette police said they had significant reason to believe someone was hurt inside. Lafayette Police confirmed they did not have a warrant.

"We had a call that we need to check on you. You need to come out here. That's not a lawful order," Neal said. "You need to come out here. We need to come out here. That don't make no sense."

Neal said the officer claimed a call was made to 9-1-1 and Neal, his son, and his girlfriend Tammy needed to step outside and speak with officers. Lafayette Police confirm no call was made from the house.

In a statement to News 18, Lafayette Police Chief Scott Galloway said, "Officers had received compelling evidence suggesting a domestic battery and confinement had occurred with persons at the address."

According to Neal, the evidence is a seven-year-old video of a domestic violence situation between Neal's other son, and another woman taking place in another town.

Neal said the son doesn't live in the house anymore. He and his girlfriend were wrongly addressed by the police as the names of the two individuals in the video.

‘Did You Tase Him in the Face!?’ Inside ‘Goon Squad’ Deputies’ Group Chat
Years of messages from an encrypted WhatsApp text thread show conversations of sheriff’s deputies, including those who terrorized Mississippi residents.

Between vacation photos and cookout invitations posted on their private text thread, a group of Mississippi sheriff’s deputies who called themselves the Goon Squad traded pictures of rotting corpses and joked about rape and shocking people with Tasers.

They did it all in front of their supervisor, who often joined in the banter.

An encrypted WhatsApp group chat obtained by The New York Times and Mississippi Today provides a yearslong record of the day-to-day conversations of a patrol unit involved in terrorizing residents across a central Mississippi county for a generation.

The Goon Squad came to national attention last year after Rankin County sheriff’s deputies tortured two Black men in their home and shot one of them in the face, nearly killing him. Six officers, including three from the Goon Squad shift, pleaded guilty and were sentenced to federal prison in March.

An investigation by The Times and Mississippi Today last fall revealed that nearly two dozen residents experienced similar brutality when Rankin deputies burst into their homes looking for illegal drugs.

Most of the deputies in the chat have not been charged, and some have not been accused of violence or other illegal behavior. Several deputies said their comments were jokes and denied doing anything illegal. At least nine still work at the department.

The text thread, the contents of which have not previously been reported, shows that for years the deputies chattered routinely about ways to humiliate and brutalize criminal suspects.

A Tamaqua police officer is jailed in Columbia County Prison after he was charged with possessing child sexual abuse material and having sexual intercourse with dogs.

The state attorney general’s office on Friday charged Christopher J. Cordes, 29, of 406 W. Third St., Bloomsburg, with child pornography and other felonies related to sexually explicit conversations, photos and videos he allegedly exchanged on Snapchat with several females, including those who claimed to be minors.

Cordes, a Tamaqua police patrolman, was arraigned Friday by Magisterial District Judge Russell L. Lawton, Bloomsburg, and jailed in Columbia County, unable to post $250,000 cash bail.
