#1 Were the officers in uniform? Did they identify themselves and dress so as to be easily identified? Was the vehicle marked? If not they were kidnappers and should have been shot.

PS: Dressing like a hooker is not smart for so many reasons.

#2 "The city has investigated the matter and found that the conduct of the police officers was appropriate under the circumstances,"

WTF?

#3 dressing like a hooker is not smart for any reasons.
thats the stupidest statement i have ever read here at rantburg.. She was 12 at her own home and three men in PLAIN CLOTHES jump out of a van and grab her. Thats like saying a rape victim deserved it.They lucky i wasn't daddy or at least one of them would have died that morning along with me if that where the case. Damn , I thought the human rights article pissed me off but TIPOVER i believe you are by far the stupidest fucking person too ever enter the halls of rantburg and thats saying alot

#6 This is Texas???

The officers are lucky to be alive, kidnapping a 12 year-old from her front porch.

Sounds like this city's had it. Time for 'daddy' to take the kids & move, hopefully after collecting nicely against the city (and hopefully finding the officers fired, if the facts merit that).

#8 If this was a fair world, the "police" officers would have all been shot dead by the father defending his daughter from what appeared to be attackers.

Absolutely fucking disgusting behavior by the police.

#9 tipover, rabid is so right. u r a frickin' idiot. The cops should be in the slammer. Want to know why so many people hate cops and totally distrust them? Just read the news. This sort of thing happens all the time and excused.

#10 A high school classmate of mine used to work for the City of Galveston as a probation officer. This is not an isolated case. Even Houston has a better reputation than Galveston.

Cops being off by two blocks doesn't surprise me. Galveston streets were laid out and named by blind wharf rats after they consumed a few bottles of rotgut. My friend used to live on "Half-M Street". That was a street halfway between "M" and "N" streets.

#11 Since when are police allowed to beat prostitutes around the head and throat, much less 12-year-olds?

#12 I see a time in the not too distant future, when Rouge Cops and the bureaucrats that cover for them are going to be hunted.

For the last 35 years I have watched this country's society just rot away as a result of liberalism. The rot is accelerating.
