Cop Assaults Cameraman For Filming Him - Mitchell Crooks, Officer Derek Colling - April 2011


Las Vegas, Nevada -- The Clark County District Attorney's Office has dropped all charges against Mitchell Crooks, the cameraman who was attacked by Officer Derek Colling on March 20, 2011. The Metropolitan Police Department has opened an internal investigation into the incident which will most likely be deemed unfounded, as nearly all valid complaints about police corruption are. In 2009, Colling fatally shot a 15-year-old bipolar boy in the head under questionable circumstances. Colling also shot and killed a man at a gas station. In addition, Collings has been the recipient of dozens of other brutality complaints. Crooks is disliked by cops because he videotaped two white cops beating a 16-year-old black boy in 2002, which led to the cops being criminally charged. Police officers are allegedly trained to avoid escalating situations, but Colling clearly provoked Crooks in this encounter. Police officers routinely torture and even murder their enemies, many of whom are not even criminals, in ways which cannot be proven. Cops are sanctimonious frauds who hide behind a facade of law and order. They are lying cowards who never admit to their crimes, yet self-righteously criticize, assault, and otherwise torment anyone who will not confess to crimes which they did not commit. For every police crime recorded on video, there are thousands of others which have not been so memorialized. Millions of innocent, taxpaying citizens have been robbed, framed, beaten, tortured, and otherwise victimized by arrogant, racist, inept, political-hack cops. Most policemen do not give a rat's ass about upholding the law; their sole concern is to massage their unjustifiably inflated egos, blue-collar hero vanities, and unwarranted god complexes. Cops are not better than anyone else is. If police officers would just perform their duties in accordance with the law, there would not be such hostility towards them. If all cops were honest, even the lowest sociopathic thugs would respect them.
