Here is a Observation of Officer Klump not stopping at a stop sign which is a violation of the law. There were no lights or sirens to indicate the need to respond to a call. I continued to record the entire interaction. So what happened when this was brought to Chief Millers attention? I was told they were looking into weather or not I violated the law for making the recording from the original audio.
Although consent was present, most of what was said could not be heard. Is this conduct unbecoming an officer? Why should this officer not be cited for what anyone else would be cited for?
From the Granite City Police Policy and Procedure Manual
3.300 General Rules of Conduct
E. INTEGRITY
2. Members shall obey all federal, state and municipal laws. Failure of such is conduct unbecoming an officer.
In case this is not enough there is another section that affirms the officers of the Granite City Police Deptartment must obey the laws.
4.030
IV. PATROL VEHICLES
3. When an officer is not on an emergency call, all normal safe driving practices, obedience to all traffic laws, and basic rules of courtesy shall be observed.

Shift the blame to C.Y.A. is the GCPD way. Shame, some lazy police give good police a bad rep. The sad part is that the good police have to protect the lazy ones....
