Brickbat: Doing His Duty

The Kansas Commission on Peace Officers' Standards and Training has revoked the law enforcement certification of Justin Herb, a former Topeka police officer, saying he was guilty of "exploiting or misusing the position as an officer to establish or attempt to establish a financial, social, sexual, romantic, physical, inmate or emotional relationship." According to the commission, Herb engaged in sex with his girlfriend while on duty, provided her with extra patrols at property she owned, and ran license plate numbers for her. The commission said he provided those services to her during periods when they were having sex, but denied them during periods when they had broken up.

Who was the girlfriend? A fellow cop? A local politician? A business bigwig of some sort? I mean, you don't normally get your certification yanked for something like this unless it causes a stink with the pols. You normally have to kill a kid or a grandmother while drunk and high on meth and driving 95 miles an hour in the middle of the day for a second time to get your certification revoked.

The stock clip art is obscene and heteronormative and disgusting. The art editor should impale himself on a unicorn’s head.
Also much too ableist and fat shaming.

It's very Pan-normative and beautiful if you ask me.
No Unicorns, though. The point might prove dangerous. 🙂
Hell, couldn't he just shake down a hooker now and then like a real cop?
I am making $162/hour telecommuting. I never imagined that it was honest to goodness yet my closest companion is earning $21 thousand a month by working on the web, that was truly shocking for me, she prescribed me to attempt it simply

If it was simply violent domestic disputes maybe they could look the other way, but this is stealing government time.
Google pays $100 per hour. My last paycheck was $3500 working 40 hours a week online. My younger brother’s friend has been averaging 12000 for months now and he works about 30 hours a week. I can’t believe how easy it was once.

Well, the Government takes all of our time.
Whew! I was afraid when I read the headline that an official was known for flinging duty at people.
I’ve made $1250 so far this week working online and I’m a full time student. I’m using an online business opportunity I heard about and I’AM made such great money. It’s really user friendly and I’m just so happy that I found out about it. Here’s what I do for more information simply.

"exploiting or misusing the position as an officer to establish or attempt to establish a financial, social, sexual, romantic, physical, inmate or emotional relationship."
At the end of the day, when you're alone in the dark, the only thing that counts is this [holds up the lawbook]...the law [slams the lawbook onto the table]. And you will be alone, when you swear to uphold these ideals. For most of us, it is only death in the streets. For the few of us that survive to old age, the proud loneliness of the Long Walk. A walk that every Officer must take outside these city walls into the unknown wastes, and there spend your last remaining days taking law to the lawless. This is what it means to be an Officer. This is the commitment I expect. Class dismissed.
It looks like a typo from the Topeka Capital-Journal site has trickled down to Brickbat. It should be "intimate", not "inmate" per the jherb.pdf document referenced in the linked article on the KSCPOST website.
It’s not just a typo, it’s laziness. Every article should be verified by readers because errors happen daily.
Herb engaged in sex with his girlfriend while on duty, provided her with extra patrols at property she owned, and ran license plate numbers for her. The commission said he provided those services to her during periods when they were having sex,
He did all that at the same time? Wow! He must have been like The Flash! 😉
And I thought texting during sex was multi-tasiing! 🙂
Did you mean to say multi-tasting?
The commission said he provided those services to her during periods when they were having sex, but denied them during periods when they had broken up.
Seems like he could be charged with human trafficking then, if he's trading services for sex.
This guy is what we call a simp.

I get paid over 190$ per hour working from home with 2 kids at home. I never thought I’d be able to do it but my best friend earns over 10k a month doing this and she convinced me to try. The potential with this is endless. Heres what I’ve been doing..
