the best part about this story is the judge that let these kids go. Hats off to this guy.

Cop served potburger upset over cooks' sentences

LOS LUNAS, N.M. (KRQE) - A pueblo police officer already mad at being served a burger spiked with marijuana is even more upset that the two men responsible got probation instead of jail sentences.

Henry Gabaldón and a fellow Isleta pueblo officer ate those burgers while on duty. Both got high and could have hurt themselves or someone else that night, he said.

Gabaldón called the crime a personal attack that had no consequences for the attackers.

"The message was it's OK to hurt an officer," Gabaldón said.

At first Gabaldón was very matter of fact about what happened on that October night in 2006.

He told KRQE News 13 how he and a fellow officer went to the Los Lunas Burger King and got Whoppers that had secretly been filled with pot.

"There was a lot of marijuana on the hamburgers," he said.

But it quickly became apparent how personal this is to Gabaldón.

"In the end we have to go home, too," he said. "We have families, and that is what it was, to all police officers, just a slap in the face."

The two men who laced the burgers, Justin Armijo and Robert Nuckols, both pleaded guilty to the crime.

Armijo was sentenced in November, and Nuckols was sentenced Monday. Both will serve no prison time only probation.

Gabaldón took issue with how District Judge John Pope handled the sentencings.

"He looked at it like it was nothing," the officer said.

In court Monday Pope said he knew the officers are not pleased.

"I don't blame them for being mad at me," Pope said.

He then told Nuckols, who admitted being high that night but saying he has since quit drugs, "I would rather you recognize that promise and make good on that promise as a way of making amends."

For Gabaldón, who said he or someone else could have died that night, that's not good enough. He said he constantly ponders the what-ifs of what might have happened.

News 13 was unable to reach Pope tonight to see if he had anything else to say.

While Armijo and Nuckols admitted to the crime, each blamed the other for it.

Kudos to District Judge John Pope,,, who looks like he's in his twilight years, probably planning his retirement , , , and couldn't care less about the prank.
We could do with more Judges like him!

"Personal attack" my ass.
A personal attack is when you are hit over the kneecaps with a baseball bat, not when someone else gets you stoned... I hope those officer enjoyed their 40 dollar hamburgers.
Fucking pigs.

Fucking pigs.

even if they are cops, they didnt want to be high that night, so those kids had no right to feed them cannabis, they could have lost there jobs.

 

[VictoryGardener]

at least they could lose them with a big smile..

 

[drunkenstoner]

lmao that is jokes , I can just picture a scene like in super troopers when the burger kid spits in farvas burger only with weed

I agree, its wrong to dose someone with any drug without their permission. But of all the ways to get revenge against cops... this one is the least offensive.

 

[swice1]

how were those officers not stoked about a surprise high common.. sweet judge

It's a small world - I've driven through that place.

I don't know man. Just cuz they were cops we say," They get what they deserve" But I wonder if the shoe would drop differently were it somebodies kid or maybe an ambulance driver who got the Spiked Burgers. The cops should be pissed, I know I would be.
I would prolly move the fuck uot of the area if I were the two who did the spiking. Payback is a mother, especially with the cops.

This video is of from a CCTV at a police station. The man is a quadrapoligic. He was arrested on a traffic warrant. The deputy didn't believe he was paralyzed, so she walked behind him, and pushed the chair over. And then she and another officer frisked him, on the ground. They then picked him back up and sat him in the chair.

This video was taken in Baltimore. It is fairly obvious what is going on in this one. An officer stopped some young skateboarders. One kid couldn't hear him because of his headphones. The situation escalated when the unprovoked officer walked over, tackled the kid, took his skateboard, and verbally assaulted him. After the initial shock, the kid gave him his information. At the end of the Cop's power trip, he notices the camera and warns the kid not to put the video on Youtube if he is recording him. There are no laws against video taping an officer.

Well fucker, it looks like your bumblebee fat ass ended up on Youtube.

Here is the video. It is a must see.

Don't get me wrong, I respect all Cops.. I know their job is hard and I know it isn't their fault that marijuana is illegal... but I wouldn't mind giving any of those officers in the videos a big juicy potburger... after I eat a few of my own

Dude, that isn't cool. I'd sure consider it a personal attack if someone laced something of mine with any drug. Putting something into someone's body without their knowledge/consent is just not cool and is violating someone. They very well coulda gotten hurt because of this. This is not something the pro cannabis community should be supporting! No offense, just sayin..

 

[VictoryGardener]

sorry Im just coming from the perspective of a weed head... for me it seems like someone just put 100 bucks in my burger

once youve been beaten up by a gang of laughing cops pointing a shotgun at your face for NONVIOLIENT POSESSION OF MARIJUANA your love affair with the cops might change.

MR. PINK
"Did you kill anybody?"

MR. WHITE
"A few cops."

MR. PINK
"No real people?"

MR. WHITE
"Uh-uh, just cops."

Love affair? And nah, if I were beaten by a select group of cops I wouldn't go and call every cop I see a corrupt cop. That'd be just stupid...

 

[Jack D Ripper]

every cop isnt currupt. Every fascist dictator isnt currupt. Every slave driver isnt currupt... but it tends to come with the occupation.

I used to think like you LiveGive, but after 25 years of being detained, arrested, harassed, searched, cuffed, and pushed around in every one horse town this side of the mississippi (for NO good reason. Ive never committed a real crime, not even a DUI)... Im starting to think that a police state is not a healthy society (the US has the HIGHEST incarceration rate in the world). btw, its a choice to become a cop. Its not like Im hating on gays or something.

catch a fire.

 

[LiveGiveTryDie]

Why do you think all cops are corrupt, or bad, or what have you? Is there a specific reason?

Police state is one thing
A good cop busting a rape in progress is another

And yeah it's a choice...but what about the guys goin into it because, say, their sister got raped, and they wanna personally contribute to stopping that by being a cop? I mean, not every cop is goin into this to bust weed users, ya know? They have personal reasons, etc, that go beyond that. Hell, many even pardon weed offenses because they have better things to tend to.

Jack, I've caught the fire, I take Marley's words to heart...assuming that's the reference you are using... : ) .......I question authority, I side with you, cept in situations such as this...I used to be like you man, but you gotta separate the good from the bad. I almost cringe to say this because of my natural instincts which made me once think like you, but just b/c you are a cop doesn't make you bad.

What if a cop joins because his sister got raped (keeping with our example), because he wanted to make a difference in that area (and lets assume this cop believes that this is the most effective way to preventing rape within his abilities)? What if he accepted the fact that there are things he sometimes must enforce even though he doesn't agree with it, because the benefit to his cause (preventing rape) outweighs the negatives of enforcing bad laws? Does that make him bad? Would it have been worse if he ignored his desire to prevent rape like that just because there were laws he didn't agree with that he had to enforce?

I dunno, it's all a very puttylike situation and it all stems from root moral values of the person analyzing the situation. There is no 'right or wrong' to me in this case, I don't feel like I have a right to tell this person it'd be better for him to not join as a cop since he'd have to enforce laws he didn't want to....It's up to the person...

Either way my point is that it can't just be cut and dry like you propose...at least according to me. You have your opinion and that is most right to you. =)

 

[Jack D Ripper]

Im certain some cops join the force for very noble reasons.

but I think after years of routine, years of pack mentality... they dont care about the individual anymore. They wont stand up and tell other cops "maybe you shouldnt beat this guy up"... "maybe this is wrong"... "maybe you shouldnt tell a white lie under oath to make the warrant stick and ruin this guy's life"

after years of oppressing, their noble ideals fade into nothing but brainwashed storm troopers.

 

[LiveGiveTryDie]

Still, you can't push that on cops as a whole. That has to do with personal integrity, not being a cop. I'm more than certain there are plenty of cops that whistleblow and do the right thing. You just can't generalize that much and expect to have it hold up to reality, I believe..Are you in your 20s, or older, just outta curiosity?
