The above headline in this day and age is rare. Police Chiefs are too concerned about covering their own ass. Unfortunately, the police chief is more political than law enforcement official. But here’s some good news. In Fairfax County, VA a police officer stopped the County Executive, Bryan Hill, for not having his front license plate properly affixed to on the front of his vehicle. The County Executive asked the officer “Did you hear who I told you I am?” The officer notified supervision and issued a warning for the front tag. Hill then contacted Fairfax County Police Chief Kevin Davis complaining of the traffic stop stating the officer was disrespectful and if he (Hill) had a badge, he would have been let go!
Davis replied to Hill stating that he did watch the body camera footage and the officer was professional, cordial and polite and that no action would be taken. Like all the liberal politicians like Bryan Hill say: “No one is above the law.” Kudos to Chief Davis for standing up for his people.
