Officer Arrested After Robbing Traffic-Accident Fatality
He did it knowing he was being recorded at the time
Knowing he was being audio and video recorded, a Connecticut State Trooper boldly took at least $3,700 in cash from a man who had died in a motorcycle accident, claiming it was "evidence," but then acting as if he knew nothing about it when confronted three times by the victim's father.
Trooper Aaron Huntsman also took a gold chain valued at $5,500, neglecting to include it in the victim's personal belongings that he returned to the man's family, later claiming he had forgotten all about it.
As a result, Huntsman was arrested on several felonies last month.
