A misdemeanor charge has been authorized against a Flint police officer whose sidearm fired during a wrestling tournament at a high school in Livingston County, according to the county prosecutor.
One count of careless discharge of a firearm causing damage to property over $50 was authorized May 22 against the officer, according to Livingston County Prosecutor William Vailliencourt.
MLive-The Flint Journal is not identifying the police officer because he has not been arraigned on the charge.
Vailliencourt said the man will be arraigned at 8:30 a.m. on June 7 in Livingston District Court.
He faces up to a year in jail or a $500 if convicted of the misdemeanor.
Vailliencourt would not discuss specific details of the case. |

"a Flint police officer whose sidearm fired"
All by itself?? What an odd way to state that he negligently fired his sidearm. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
