Bradenton Police Department Complaint

Corruption in Bradenton Police Department

- Bradenton, Florida
My grandson was arrested for a crime in Bradenton, Florida. A Bradenton Police Sargent's son took a loaded gun to school and asked my grandson to hold it for him while he was in a fight with another kid. The policemans son did not want to be caught with it. My grandson is part black. The policeman's son is white. The policeman's son did not get charged with any crimes. Yet my grandson has never held a gun in his hands until this time. Another kid (18 years old) harassed my grandson (calling him terrible racist's names) and threatened him. Yet again, the other kid did not get charged! My grandson does not have any previous charges and has never been in trouble with the law. He comes from a good supportive family. When he went to trial the probation board, The Dept of Corrections and the DA's office requested probation for my grandson. The judge did not even consider it. Why should my grandson pay the price to keep the Policemans son and the policeman out of trouble? What happened to our justice system in the United States?

Florida really lives up to its reputation of lock 'em up without just cause. And Bradenton police are absolutely corrupt, stupid, or maybe both. A year ago I made a 911 call when my drugged out daughter started to assault me in my home. When the Bradentucky police arrived, they chose to believe her instead, that I had hit her. At the time, she had already amassed a police record because of her drug history, but of course they must believe the story of a young lady over a 28-year Air Force veteran, right? I spent the night in jail, and when I got home my $2500 mountain bike was gone. She probably got $50 for her next drug buy. Oh, by the way, since then she was arrested 3 more times for drug inspired theft-all felonies. If the Bradenton police had done their job that one night, we might have got her into rehab much faster and I'd still have my job. I found out it will cost me over $100 to try to get this removed from my record.
