    So 6 days after the stop he worked at the Clayton County sheriff's office. why does none of this make any sense. If they admit that he worked at the Clayton County sheriff's office and was put on suspended duty then that means he didn't lie about being an officer so this just sounds racial.

      You’re correct. He was charged because he was between jobs during the traffic stop. He had left Fulton County SO., and was hired shortly after the stop by Clayton County SO. It was a stupid decision but honestly a petty charge. I’m more worried about the impersonating police officers that are out there making traffic stops, playing at being a cop.

    So since he showed you his old identification you hit him with a felony.... Not to mention he is now again working for another department as a deputy. This whole thing sounds weird. It will be thrown out over time, but he can definitely sue over this crap arrest. I never heard him say he was an officer though all he did was show you what you asked for as proof he was one.

Was he trying to get a better position? This guy obviously does not know how to uphold the law, so I want to know more.

      That's typical of diversity hires. They get hired for their skin color, and then have to leave when they can't do The Job. Then another agency hires him because of his skin color, and the cycle repeats.

    No one is going to wear a seatbelt because they want to avoid a $15 fine. I think the insurance lobby is behind this ridiculously low fine in order to keep our auto rates high. The fine should be based on the median cost of a child's safety seat or $300 for a 1st offense and $600 for a 2nd one. plus an additional $100 for everyone else in the vehicle that is not buckled up. People don't buy a car seat for their kids because it is not worth the cost to avoid the fine.

      Cops are absolutely allowed to cite or arrest other cops. In some cases, the arresting officer HAS to arrest, due to the wording of certain criminal statutes.
