(6,597 posts)My heart breaks for Gilberto. I hope he's been able to recover both physically and emotionally. Nothing was done over it either, it took the cop being found drunk, shirtless & in his police vehicle before he was charged and suspended.

On December 6, a Miami-Dade cop named Fernando Villa made national headlines by passing out drunk behind the wheel of his squad car, naked but for a pair of cargo shorts, with only his drunken foot preventing the vehicle from rolling into a busy West Kendall intersection.
The 32-year-old officer has been charged and suspended, but Riptide decided to dig deeper into his police file. What we found is scary: eight internal investigations, some with disturbing allegations.
