- theodric 8mo agoWow. What an infuriating case, again and again. Only 2 years in prison for the perps because the court decided that "excited delirium" killed the guy and not being beaten and tased 4 times.

In some states in the US, it is not illegal for a cop to have sex with someone they have arrested. Ain't that just dandy. The Polish situation could be an upgrade.
