What's your take here?

This article is very poorly written in that it bounces between events and the continuity is all messed up.

The jist is that a cop is accused of mis-stating events in a DUI stop. That led to a series of cases being pled to lesser charges. He 'retired' stating hostile working conditions after the stop including other officers delaying response to assist him on later calls. He says the whole thing is made up because he stood up for the other officer involved in an EEOC complaint and that the subject in the traffic stop in question is/was a PO/s mother.

So, is the guy a bad cop for faulty testimony, or is he a target of retaliation?

Seems more sloppy and lazy than truly corrupt, but he might be that. He was probably trying to impress the hot rookie lady cop by being a hardass because you would think he’d let a cops mom slide for being .1 over the limit. So my read is that other stuff was probably going on over time and this was the last straw for his fellow cops, who also didn’t want to get dragged into court for his discrepancy shit and get themselves and their arrests tainted too. Or maybe I need more coffee.
