A Fort Wayne police officer with a history of traffic offenses has pleaded guilty to an infraction after his vehicle fatally injured a pedestrian who was in a crosswalk.

The officer was previously disciplined 4 times for other driving offenses, but killing someone - well - $35.50 oughta cover it.

    In America if you’re a civilian and you run over somebody by accident and kill them you can still be charged with negligent homicide and spend several years in prison for it.

    Unfortunately those kinds of simple, logical rules for some reason don’t seem to apply to the cops that kill far more people on average than any other group in America.
