The officer's name is Robert Powell. You should put that in the title.

Another instance of where 'following the rules' trumps 'doing what's right.'

That cop would run a redlight for any trivial reason that he feels . They believe they are above the law. In his mind we are all perps.
But he is on a power trip ,and reason is out the window. His thinking is no different then a criminal whose spun out of control and continues to do the wrong thing.
The police are out of control in this country. This video comes out on the day of the funeral for the four officers gunned down in california. I feel bad for their families, but shit like that will have less impact on the american people as long as their brother cops abuse their power.

The really disgusting part, imo, is that if the victim hadn't been an NFL player, we likely wouldn't have heard about it at all and the cop would have gotten away with it.

I don't know how any person could live with themselves, denying someone the right to see a dying relative one last time.

I have no idea how the world got this fucked up, and what's worse, I have no idea on how to fix it...
