Sports, U.S.: Officer McJerk had no remorse for a NFL player’s mom-in-law

  • What happened? On the night of March 17, Houston Texans running back Ryan Moats was in a race against time to go see his dying mother-in-law at a hospital in Plano, Tx. He ran a red light. Unfortunately for him, he was stopped in the hospital parking lot by the meanest cop ever.
  • No sympathy Officer Robert Powell, who did not seem to care about the situation, kept Moats waiting for 20 minutes while he performed a background check and said things like “I can screw you over.” Not even hospital staff could stop him. When Moats finally got to see her, she was dead.
  • He’s in troublePowell was placed on administrative leave. His boss, Dallas Police Chief David Knuckle, put it best: “It’s hard to find the right word and still be professional in my role as the police chief. But the behavior was not appropriate.” We recommend “@$$hole.” source
