State Troopers in Connecticut write thousands of fake tickets to fictional White drivers in order to collect bonuses and skew racial profiling data

[Jean Jacket]

Ironically, troopers don't fukk with you heavy in CT. MFs do 20 to 30 over all the time especially on the Merrit.

They just greenlighted a law for cops to press street racing takeovers...because it got Oakland levels of crazy during and after COVID.

So, they are citing more cacs, and I'm sure they want to keep profiling Black and hispanic harder to justify letting cacs go.

Horrible shyt. CT's wealth divide is crazy and taxes are absolutely top 3 highest in the nation.

They tax and spend over budget every fiscal year and the state is broke as fukk due to generous state employee pensions for all the cacs loaded into the bloated government.

People talk shyt about California...but low key CT is worse.

Connecticut ain't in the south though. I thought that's where all the racism and cac fukkery was, let the Coli tell it.

There's three Connecticuts. There's the rich/coastal parts of CT which are actually a lot of resident New Yorkers who bought their property there. Then there's the inner cities Hartford/New Haven/Bridgeport which always top the per capita lists of most violent cities in America and then there's the central to eastern part of CT that nobody talks about because it's 99% white and has nothing but farm lands. That's where UCONN is.

This is wild.

edit:

According to an internal investigation, troopers falsified tickets for their own personal benefit as those who appear productive are often eligible for federally funded overtime.

our tax dollars funding they asses too.

The article says they were underreporting citations to Hispanic drivers, guess at least luckily we were left out of this one.

But I am confused, and if there are any Connecticut people on here who can help, thank you; where I live, there isn't a check box on police tickets for Hispanic, so they just list them as White. Is it different there?

This seems more like greed. Write the fake ticket, get authorized for overtime, get to go to a court hearing for someone they know ain't showing up, collect free court pay. This will go federal.

 

[WTFisWallace?]

The levels and sheer numbers to this is egregious. The number of cops involved is a direct sign of they feel/know they won’t face real repercussions. Falsification, fraud, racism…should be some DoJ bringing the hammer down level shyt.

I think it being in CT is also a factor in thru story not blowing up. Had it been Alabama or Shreveport….probably would’ve gained way more traction by now.

ha i just got a ticket there, there's a text field for race where they write a one letter code, then there's a checkbox for hispanic

Anyone that wrote one of those fake tickets should be out of a job and need to be further investigated.

And charged with fraud

Connecticut troopers under federal investigation for allegedly submitting false traffic stop data​

HARTFORD, Conn. -- The U.S. Department of Justice has taken over an investigation into allegations that hundreds of Connecticut state troopers may have submitted false information on thousands of traffic infractions to a racial profiling board, data that made it appear police were pulling over more white drivers than they were, the state's top prosecutor said.

Chief State's Attorney Patrick Griffin told WTNH-TV on Thursday that the DOJ asked his office to suspend its investigation, which was ordered by Gov. Ned Lamont, because it is doing its own probe.

“I agreed with that decision," Griffin said in a taping for the station's weekend news show “This Week in Connecticut.”

The feds step in now imagine if this happened in the south. They would probably get paid more to do it.

This is happening all over the Country and Black People been knew it. After Slavery, these White supremacist systems have done everything and anything to drain our resources one way or another. Reparations are due period. That's why I don't want to hear sh!t about everything been good since the Civil Rights Movement. Their Racism and White Supremacy has never ended, it just keep evolving. That's why I said only Black people in America are in a real life "Matix" because of stuff like this. No other group in this Country is being attacked on this Systemic level for hundred of years.
