Condolences???:shocker:
Yes, condolences.
> Condolences are an expression of sympathy to someone who is experiencing pain arising from death, deep mental anguish, or misfortune.
They've definitely experienced misfortune and deep mental anguish, so offering condolences would seem to be the polite thing to do.
Check out Douglas M Hoffman on WCCA.
Check out Douglas M Hoffman on WCCA. Court case 2009CM000265 is particularly interesting. And the one directly before it. Wife leaves him, files for a restraining order, demands child support, annuls the marriage and the Dougie violates it.
Familiar pattern.
You're living in a glass house Doug.
How is all this related to either this specific thread, or OC in Virginia??
DOB 1960? I think you have the wrong Huffman.
Seems he still exists as a Nightmare :uhoh:Please don't say that name here. Massa Doug may come back and is just as bad or worse than Badger or "I'm from Joisey" :uhoh:
And yes, the right Master Doug would have been born in the 40's.
Did you ever sneak in at 3:00 AM?
All Kids do. I did it, my kids did it and none of us expected more than lifetime grounding and no phone.
Parents have to learn to not leave loaded guns around so their younger kids can get them and not shoot at shadows when their kids are teenagers.
This is a situation all parents have to forbid but expect, and anyone that says "My little darlings will never do or never did anything like that, is either real stupid or full of it."
I think we're missing valuable insight here to say 'stupid' WRT the officer's actions.
It shows an officer was so fearful he shot someone in his garage who was not (yet) a threat. It shows stupidity in going INTO the garage in the first place. It shows cowardice that he didn't turn the light on first, from the cover of his doorway.
It shows poor judgment that he jumped into the car, risked his life and his daughters, I THINK, in a frantic attempt to 'cover it up' by getting her to the hospital and avoiding the publicity of the EMTs who would know it was a LEO.
He should NOT be on the force. I don't think his type, these days, is rare.
Let's change that from fear to "Arrogant". "it shows an officer that was so arrogant, that someone would have broken into his house he was going to shoot them. a lot of the same arrogance that get a lot of civilians killed these days
Well put!
13 year vet. Administrative leave, with or without pay was not mentioned. What is ironic is that he may be placed back on the job, with a gat on his hip. But, that is different, he used his own personal gat, not a company gat.
I doubt the officer will be charged, is there a charge for being stupid? He screwed up royally, but the powers and the public will not want his head on a platter, because he is a cop. Nothing wrong with being a cop, but cops, and even former cops should be treated the same as the rest of society. That includes myself.
