As a former pill addict, I feel for him, it sucks to have to try and keep all the lies straight, it ruins you, but if I hadn't faced negative consequences, I'd never have gotten clean. I hope he is, too.

[@jnothanks]

As a current citizen, I'm concerned that a cop is an addict of anything. Addiction, especially with prescription medication, is terrible (thanks, Sackler family) and they deserve help. Unfortunately, that should bar him from ever being a cop, probably ever having a license, and definitely needs the maximum punishment allowable under current law. If you can't read, "do not operate heavy machinery or drive while taking this medication," you're not literate enough to be a cop.

Same, homie. 7yrs sober now. One of my lowest points was demolishing one of my neighbors mailboxes driving drunk. I fled, sat at the grocery store for a while, came back and the street was still quiet and empty so I thought I was fine. After being inside a couple minutes, a guy in pajamas came to the door. It was the cop who lived across the street from my neighbor. Said he had footage of the entire thing. He asked if I was drinking because he could smell it, but I told him I took a few shots when I got home to calm my nerves. I'm sure he didn't believe me but he still didn't breathalyze me. Got a citation in lieu of arrest, booked into jail the next day then released, helped my neighbor repair his mailbox so he wrote a letter for me and got my record expunged.

[@daftmario123]

One of my friends who was in a Stryker brigade was (eventually) being prescribed 400-500mg of Oxycontin a DAY from the San Francisco VA. He had to lie to his doctors about smoking weed because since it was a federal agency, they didn't recognize any legality of weed despite being in f'ing San Francisco of all places. He finally got a new doctor assigned to him, she was more into holistic medicine. He told her he smoked weed and she said that if it was helping him, he should continue doing it, and slowly weaned him off the 400-500mg of Oxycontin. Once they had weaned him off, he told me that while the weed obviously didn't kill his underlying pain completely as much as the Oxy (he had a shoulder replacement, hip replacement, etc. from an IED blast) he preferred to not be addicted to pills anymore.

I'm amazed that after being read his Miranda rights and knowing he's been a cop, that he sat there and answered their questions. This is an example that it doesn't matter what you know or who you are, when you get into the interrogation room, the police will do everything they can to get you to confess. There are three officers in the room asking questions, with two standing of them standing above him, which indicted a power position over him. Most people in this position are already dazed, confused and nervous and don't know how to act, so they start talking. I'm not condoning his actions, he needs help and hopefully he gets it. But, imagine you are innocent and the pressure police put on people in these rooms is why you need a lawyer to make sure you are not saying something that can be twisted into a confession. Any lawyer out there would never allowed this conversation to happen.

[@iviui2d3i2]

Man, when watching this video, I feel so relieved to have control over all of my mischief from years ago. Particularly when the arresting officer had sort of 'freaked out' with a worried tone after having misheard the suspect, thinking that he had said he took 10 of the 5/325 hydros. Because, back in the throes of my own issues I would've considered 50mg hydro (+soma +zan +add) as merely an 'eye-opener'. Not glorifying my past transgressions here, but rather realizing just how deep into it I was, because at my plateau, I'd run through anywhere from 400-600mg hydro per day; would throw a half full water bottle into the microwave to warm up the water close to body temperature so that things would equalize and absorb more quickly, and then break down and toss 20 of the '10'/325 hydros (200mg) into that water bottle, shake it up into a chalky (yellow at the time) mixture and then down it. That's how I'd simply 'begin' the day. Chase that with about 4 or 5 soma. Head off to work, pop 5 or 8 more hydros every few hours or so. Get home, repeat my morning routine and then get myself ready to go out partying. Continue popping both hydro and soma throughout the night, all while tossing back a minimum of 6 'Double' 151/Redbulls (from a generous bartender since I always tipped well and would go there often). Head out of the club at 2am with the rest of my friends who were all doing the same thing I was doing (except the 151, of all the things mentioned, that was too much for them to maintain their awareness) and hit up the after hours hangouts and 24hr taco shops, but that's how high our tolerances had become. It's hard to articulate just how lucky I feel to be alive and breathing after going through that process for at least 8 years or so. To be frank, I feel so lucky to have realized how much I was screwing up, and then open enough to talk with a different and sober friend about needing help, because I can't imagine what it must be like these days considering all of the counterfeit Fent pressed stuff out there within the past several years. That's so damn frightening.

It's interesting how cops interact with other cops for DUIs, compared to your average citizen. They definitely treat them with respect and kid gloves, as opposed to the unforgiving, condescending, and sometimes violent way they deal with the rest of us.

[@Eneko88]

I don't know in USA, but here, in north Spain, every time I had to deal with any policemen they have been really respectfull with me because I have always been very respectfull with them too and I never argued them. Even the times I was caught smoking weeds (btw, thank godness I gave it up more than a decade ago) I was treaten with respect and I was just given advices, no tickets. I'm 100% sure that's because I have always talked to them with the respect they deserve and I have also been honest with them, always. In fact, every time I have seen/heard a policeman was "agressive" with a citizen here, it has always been due to the citizen's attitude. And many times, I have seen policemen being TOO much respectful and patience with citizens who really didn't deserve being treated so well. I wish everyone were less braindead while dealing with policemen (specially when they've done something wrong) and I also wish every policemen were like the ones I have dealt with. All my respect for them

[@N8Dulcimer]

the funny thing is that a lot of people think that they are doing it for the sake of that cop. In reality, they know that not treating a cop with kid gloves will make their coworkers stop trusting and respecting them. So it's more about signaling to your coworkers that you are willing to play the game than it is about them having some kind of 'respect for their fellow officer.' Proximity is a huge factor here. You can watch a lot of these videos and see how if the cop is from a different agency that operates in a different county, they rarely give them any special treatment.

[@Johnieboi]

@@N8DulcimerYep. They will have serious repercussions from their fellow officers.

110% agree on the second half of your comment, but “should know better” implies that you think addiction is a choice. Addiction is an actual illness, you can get addicted from medication some doctor prescribed you for PTSD or a broken ankle, not just because you wanted to be a rebel and try drugs. Xanax is an anxiety pill, and with him being ex-military, he probably was prescribed it for PTSD/severe anxiety and became addicted. Same with Ambien (a pill prescribed to people who can’t sleep because of their anxiety/ptsd/depression. I’m glad he got caught before someone got seriously hurt, hopefully he can get clean.
