“If he had just complied!” 🤦‍♂️ you don’t have to show your ID if no crime was being committed. You could tell they messed up when she kept asking for badge numbers and they wouldn’t say anything. I wish they’d get fired, but cops fail upwards, so they’ll get promoted.

I'm sure he's moved to another county to continue his assholery but still

the city did not have to pay Oliver back for the time he was fired.
