here is evidence that the 'thin blue line' is about as corrupt as can be and will stay that way for the foreseeable future, unless something is done by a lot of us, though i can't imagine what that will be;

Baton Rouge, LA — A mother has been grieving the loss of her baby for nearly two years after an off-duty cop—recklessly driving 94 mph—smashed into her car, killing her daughter and injuring all the other occupants. Now, after this officer took the life of her child, prosecutors announced that officer Christopher Manuel won’t receive so much as a speeding ticket for driving nearly twice the posted speed limit and killing a baby. 

This case has been tainted from the start. As TFTP reported last year, instead of arresting the cop, the officer’s brothers in blue arrested the mother. Brittany Stephens, 20, was arrested last February on charges of homicide—in spite of the fact that the officer caused the deadly crash. According to police, Stephens did not have the straps at the correct level in the car seat and the seat was improperly secured—something parents across the country are likely ‘guilty’ of—so she was deemed responsible for her daughter’s death.

Police said the “lack of securing the seat to the vehicle and the loose straps are a contributing factor in the death” of the child and “show gross negligence” on the mother’s part, according to the Advocate.

What’s more, Stephens was not the driver of the vehicle. However, she told police that she was the one who strapped in her daughter, so she was the one facing charges in her death.

Stephens—whose baby’s life was ended by a reckless cop—was booked into the Baton Rouge prison last year on one count of negligent homicide and a seat belt violation while the cop who killed her baby walked.

According to the report, three other adults were in the car and were all cited as well.

Officer Manuel was never brought to jail and never cited.

At the time, the case garnered national attention because the mother was arrested instead of the cop. Yes, she was at fault for improperly putting her child in the car seat. However, had Manuel not been driving nearly twice the posted speed limit, the child would have been fine.

What’s more, Manuel is still a cop and will likely go back to regular duty. As the Advocate reports:......https://fromthetrenchesworldreport.com/no-charges-not-even-a-ticket-for-off-duty-cop-driving-94-mph-before-crash-that-killed-a-baby/257282
