Patrick Tuter, Garland Police Officer, Fired For Shooting 41 Rounds, Killing Suspect

A Texas police department terminated an officer who killed an unarmed suspect by shooting at him 41 times following a car chase last summer.

Disgraced cop Patrick Tuter had claimed that he feared for his life while pursuing Michael Vincent Allen, but Garland Police Department officials fired him on Friday. Their investigation revealed that the 7-year veteran had rammed his cruiser into Allen's truck, cornered him and twice reloaded his semi-automatic gun while firing 41 shots at him, KXAS reported.

Three bullets struck Allen

not only bad judgement, but a really bad shot as well...

Have a police training officer that hunts so we get to talk often. The two classes he has yearly of around 24 recruits each, only 6 or so make it to the force and of those, maybe 2 make the grade.
Last year, 8 failed the driving tests, 4 failed firearms, 2 were terminated immediately for discharging a weapon that was " unloaded", one for looking down the gun barrel to see if it was loaded, 2 were canned for wrecking too many cars, one for doing 110 on the loop around town to get to a hair appointment. 4 could not pass background checks, and 1 used his badge to make a traffic stop to get a woman's phone number and or address.
He told me he will not ride with the ones that make it. He is more worried about them shooting him than a suspect.

Many of the younger generation just needed their butts beat more often as kids. Many just have a don't care attitude, like most liberals.... :roll:
