Berthoud police officer, Jeremy Yachik, was accused of abusing his 15-year old daughter in the year of 2014. An email received by the Loveland police department included video footage of a man, later identified as Yachik and his daughter, hitting and kicking a young female in 2012 which led to an investigation and later, an arrest. Loveland police investigated the allegations instead of the Berthoud Police department due to Yachik’s ex-fiance claiming that she had emailed the video to Berthoud Police Chief Glen Johnson but Johnson had never responded, thus causing her to continue trying to get help for Yachik’s daughter. The abuse Yachik’s daughter accused was inflicted upon her included being bound with plastic zip ties, being force-fed hot sauce, as well as being choked. Jeremy Yachik admitted to some of the abuse his daughter claimed and was arrested and charged with four counts of child buse and one count of false imprisonment. In his arrest affidavit in Larimer County Court, Yachik …show more content…
Police officers are supposed to protect and serve the society. They are the ones who investigate and arrest those who abuse and break the laws. Not only is Jeremy Yachik a father but he’s a police officer who regularly hurt and abused his own child. Yachik took an oath to protect and serve yet he not only broke that oath, he broke the moral principles a police officer should have. Officers are held to a higher standard for a reason, because they are the ones who are charged with keeping the public safe and upholding the rights and laws of the community. Being a police officer does not allow someone to take advantage of that authority and power to hit, beat, kick, choke, or inflict any other kind of harm to any child especially their own child. Why go through all of the training and other requirements to become a police officer just to ruin it all by afflicting pain on someone who’s of your own

No one sees it but it happens. Police officers are characterized as enforcers with actions of tyranny and usurpations, to hold our rights or enforce power wrongfully. No one likes no one.

Luckily no one got hurt and Trawalley will be appearing in court soon. I chose this article to realize how police officers put their lives on the line each day. There is many jobs in our society that are used to protect the greater
According to Dent v. City of Dallas, the court ruled that police officers performing discretionary duties in good faith and acting within the course and scope of their employment are immune from personal liability under the doctrine of qualified immunity. The question that is presented in this situation is whether or not the police officer was acting within his course and scope of his employment. As a nation we have endowed our police officers with the right and authority to enforce the laws on whom they choose. Whether or not we reach the realization to this reality however is another story. The police officer has to use his ability on whom to arrest and not arrest responsibly because his actions do affect society.
Some significant aggravating factors include: - Parents breached their position of trust - Failed to provide to their son - One year of abuse - One month of confinement - Aggravated sexual assault Some noteworthy mitigating factors to consider include: - Parents claim that boy was “out-of-control” - Father suffers from PTSD - Confessions to some crimes - Father stated he is remorseful I will take into account the psychologist’s testimony opposing the accused’s claim about their son, early confessions, and the accused’s [father] statement about being remorseful. I will also note the accused’s prior occupation [RCMP] and the fact that he has no prior violent record. In respect of the aggravated sexual assault charge, I believe a reasonable sentence is 20 years of imprisonment [concurrent sentence].
When talking about the ongoing controversy and public debate on the outlook of police and community relationship a message or headline or even a video that is posted online involving an officer and an individual is going to be overflowed with every opinionated, negativity there is to say about how unprofessional the officer
Daniel Holtzclaw is an ex-Oklahoma City officer who is convicted of rape along with other several charges after he brutally abused many African American women over the course of six months.

In today’s modern society, many feel that is okay for a police officer can kill a man armed with a harmful weapon at any cost. On many news channels, there are various amounts of articles and reports about a police officer committing this act. Even though a police officer has the right to take action against an armed man, this could be argued in many circumstances. In the 2013, Sammy Yatim was a young adult with a mental illness and was armed with a weapon on a streetcar in Toronto. Yatim was confronted by Const.
Headstrong in the face of adversity, they took an oath and they will uphold it. At least a vast majority of them. Officers have achieved a bad rap in the past couple years because of a few legitimate bad apples and primarily the media trying their damnedest to paint a poor picture wherever possible of police. The false misconception created from this narrative has garnered enough attention that the positive and hard work officers do everyday seems to have been forgotten. People hastily right officers off as it seems so easy and then when they need them the most, they are left no choice but to ask for help from the same officers they just wrote off.

Police officers should be held accountable for their own actions just like everyone else.
Over the years, countries have witnessed many cases of police brutality, which has tremendously increased since the 80’s. Every day, officers are faced with many threatening situations, forcing them to make split-second decisions all the while simultaneously both expecting the worst along and hoping for the best. Police officers shouldn't have more power than any other human-being on this planet just because they wear a badge on their chest especially given the power to take any citizen's rights away, even their lives. Police brutality contains a lot of ethos, racism, and pathos because police are meant to protect society from harm, First of all, police brutality is hypocrisy, police should be properly trained so they do not resort to violence and abuse of its power. It’s illegal for a cop to violate someone's rights; police officers are suppose to be trusted and expected to respect society as a whole.
When a person thinks of a police officer, what should come to mind is a protector. Cops should be a sign of safety, honesty, and protection. Many years ago it was that way, now cops are seen as people you want to stay away from. Cops are abusing, assaulting, framing, and killing innocent people. Police brutality can be described as the misconduct of police officers such as police corruption, harassment and discrimination.
