Discovery

This officer was discovered during a very questionable traffic stop which left the Columbus, MS Police Department's Assistant Chief clueless as to why this occured in the first place. The officer was belligerent, hostile and disrespectful leading to questions about his criminal background.

Corresponding body cam footage will be released to the public here when possible.
