Trooper who tasered Jared Massey may face charges
Remember the case of Jared Massey, the Utah motorist who was tasered after he declined to sign a speeding citation and then asked questions about the alleged offence? (Also see here and here) Well, it seems that the arresting officer in that case just might face consequences for his actions after all, even after the Utah Highway Patrol announced that tasering annoying motorists is fine as far as official procedure is concerned. Says the Salt Lake Tribune:
Don't get your hopes up, but it's a step in the right direction.
According to another account, in the Deseret Morning News, Massey has "filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against Gardner seeking an undisclosed amount of money." Here's hoping he wins.
The case of Utah Highway Patrol Trooper John Gardner is being reviewed by prosecutors in Tooele County, who will determine if he broke the law. Lawyers in Tooele County are examining the case at the request of the Utah Attorney General's Office and to avoid conflicts for prosecutors in eastern Utah, where the traffic stop occurred.
Attorney general spokesman Scott Troxel said his office has completed a fact-finding review of Gardner's use of the Taser but has not made any recommendations to Tooele County prosecutors.
Don't get your hopes up, but it's a step in the right direction.

I am sure that the courts will see the deficiencies in Utah Highway Patrol Trooper John Gardner's service to the public. The real scandel is that the other civil servants who hired, armed and failed to supervise and monitor his conduct will evade taking responsibility.
It appears that the trooper has been cleared of any wrongdoing. To my knowledge there has been no civil action. Bottom line, the trooper did his job. Massey was not tased for failing to sign or asking questions. Massey was tased for not obeying the commands of the trooper to stop as he headed back to his vehicle.
Massey filed a federal lawsuit against Utah, which the state settled for $40,000.
As is often the case, even when there's a fatality, the authorities declined to charge Gardner.
40k for not follow directions. The trooper, I assume, should have wrestled him in the fast lane of traffic ? You who cry for Massey are bleeding liberals who hate authority. Massey is an a@@"$.

maybe old news...and I am by far not a bleeding heart liberal...but that cop was a complete A$$hole are you kidding me! Yeah like this this guy with a pregnant wife and baby in the car is gonna run. He was clearly pointing at the sign on the road he just past and this ass hole cop was gonna show him who was boss. If you ask me I would pass on the 40k and have this piss poor cop ordered to go home to momma and give him a hugs and kisses for a year or two. Talk about ego!
