      Hear me out, my line of thinking is this:

      ACAB. Yes, all. Why? Because if there’s a good cop they get pressured, persecuted, etc. What’s a great way to discredit someone? Say they’re a pedophile.

      The cops say it’s a suicide…

        Police should be held to account by independent oversight, but we both know the police unions would refuse. They’d probably be happy to resort to force over it, but hardly even need to given their political clout and spending in politics.

    I feel bad for him but worse for his victims.

    The only winners here are the children he won’t assault because he’s 6 feet under.

        I feel bad for any senseless loss of life. If he was truly sorry he should have faced the music instead of taking the easy out.

        Suicide is the ultimate “make it somebody else’s problem” solution to your problems.

        It solves nothing and ensures that everyone you ever met will be a little worse off when they think of you for the rest of their lives.

        So I feel bad for him that he took the cowards way out.

        I feel worse for his victims for being his victims in the first place but now also that they’ll never get a full measure of their true justice.

          He did solve something though. Now there’s one less cop out on the streets commiting crimes and ruining people’s lives.
