Ohio Cop Criminally Charged for Snatching Woman’s Camera

As so many cops have done in the past, Yellow Springs Police Sergeant Naomi Penrod snatched a camera from a woman’s hands who was recording her in public, figuring she would get away with it.
But now the Ohio cop is facing three misdemeanor charges.
And this after she was slapped with a two-day unpaid suspension from her department.
All for a two-second video where she tried to prevent a woman in a wheelchair from recording her.
But those two seconds revealed a woman who was not afraid of abusing her authority.

Female cop out of control and power mad sprays innocents with pepper spray [View all] Ichingcarpenter Jan 2015 OP

Why the "female" headline? trumad Jan 2015 #1

My thought exactly. n/t TexasProgresive Jan 2015 #2

Well, she apparently is. And it's notable, because raging cops are almost exclusively male. Thor_MN Jan 2015 #23

not always, sometimes female officers feel they have to prove they are "tough" snooper2 Jan 2015 #37

That doesn't excuse horrible behavior. HappyMe Jan 2015 #38

Uh, yeah, didn't say it did snooper2 Jan 2015 #40

I didn't say that you were making excuses, HappyMe Jan 2015 #43

And that would be the "almost" portion of almost always... Thor_MN Jan 2015 #60

OP is expanding on a response to a thread about female officers possibly reducing niyad Jan 2015 #61

Quite effectively too, it would seem. n/t lumberjack_jeff Jan 2015 #87

right. because ONE instance negates everything that article said. as I said, the usual niyad Jan 2015 #88

An equally sexist argument could be made that lumberjack_jeff Jan 2015 #91

keep trying. niyad Jan 2015 #92

Thanks Niyad for the eye opening post trumad Jan 2015 #89

you are most welcome. yes, we understand the reasoning completely. niyad Jan 2015 #90

"out of control cop pepper sprays..." conjures a specific (and incorrect) image in the DU zeitgeist. lumberjack_jeff Jan 2015 #86

Is "Female cop" relavant? TexasProgresive Jan 2015 #3

she's a cop it was a she Ichingcarpenter Jan 2015 #4

You didn't lie, and too bad this kind of behavior occurs across cop genders MrMickeysMom Jan 2015 #8

yeah...like you would have posted "male" cop... trumad Jan 2015 #22

Whatever Ichingcarpenter Jan 2015 #24

How many times have you specified a male cop without direct relevance...? LanternWaste Jan 2015 #25

I usually assume that a cop doing something hideous like HappyMe Jan 2015 #28

Why didn't you say "female WHITE cop" then? Demit Jan 2015 #26

Probably because the overwhelming majority of these horror stories have involved male cops FiveGoodMen Jan 2015 #68

If the OP were a scientist conducting a study, I might buy that. Demit Jan 2015 #71
