Boston-Area Cops Caught Egging Sergeant’s Home

Massachusetts Cops Caught Egging Sergeants Home

Five Newton, Mass. police officers have been disciplined for egging a sergeant’s home last month, according to CBS Boston.

Police first responded to a report of someone egging the sergeant’s home in Framingham, Mass. on Dec. 11. They stopped a car with two off-duty Newton cops inside. The officers admitted to egging the house but said it was only a prank.

“They threw eggs towards the driveway and the house and the car were hit,” Newton Police Chief Howard Mintz told WHDH-TV.

A short time later, a third off-duty officer flagged down police near the scene and said he had been with the other two officers. A police report said he appeared intoxicated and was given a ride home, according to CBS.

A subsequent investigation turned up a total of five officers involved in the egging. They have not been publicly identified and no charges have been filed.

“Their statements were that this was strictly a prank that had gone awry, that they had been friendly, and that there wasn’t any personal hard feelings,” Mintz told WHDH.

He told CBS all the officers apologized and power-washed the sergeant’s home.

Still, Mintz said the sergeant and his family were frightened by the incident.

“It was immature, irresponsible, because they crossed the line. Anybody can be involved in a good-humored prank — this was not a good-humored prank,” he said.

    the police departments throughout this country are like our schools, they are dumbing down our officers by brainwashing, lowering tests standards for their afermative action quota and not hiring ex-military anymore, they want young liberal kids that have been brainwashed out of school or family members that are brought in by their union thugs the police use to be someone you respected but now all you see and hear about is how stupid they act, There are some good ones out there still but they are the minority, they get disgusted with arresting a criminal just to have them get off by a liberal judge

      Too bad they didn’t TP his house, then he could have used that to clean up his stained drawers from the horror of survining an egging.

    Imagine what other crimes they have committed and didn’t get caught? Typical behavior from people with power over regular citizens. The department should have charged them and fired them. But they back and support criminals over the trust of its citizens. Just another reason why people don’t trust them. When officers, judges and politicians don’t obey the law, then there IS NO LAW.

    That’s it!

    Eggs should not come in 12-egg clips that make them so accessible to mass assault eggers. Who in the world needs 12 eggs at a time? Only people looking to do harm to others, that’s who!

    And eggs should certainly no longer be manufactured in an easy-to-throw form; eggs should be made triangular so they’re hard to throw with precision. They should also be individually wrapped so that mass eggers cannot get off so many shots so quickly.

    Any sale of more than two eggs (nobody should ever need more than 2 eggs!) should only be allowed if the buyer is registered, trained and licensed, and only after passing an instant background check.

    Perhaps we need to weigh whether or not people even need eggs at all. I mean, what possible good do they serve? Who REALLY needs them? There are other kinds of foods. The potential use of eggs as a weapon probably eclipses humanity’s use of them for sustenance.

    There’s not even a Constitutional amendment regarding eggs, so I say the right of the people to keep and bear eggs can be infringed!

    I’ll play with the little kiddies for now…

    There were just a few eggs tossed, but what if they’d chosen to throw them a carton at a time? There are 12 eggs to a carton – that makes the carton capable of discharging multiple projectiles at one time – a machine carton! With the extension of ONE ARM, ANYBODY can launch multiple projections at their intended target, thus, in order to reduce the danger to the unsuspecting public, like this Sergeant, eggs SHOULD BE sold in individual containers.

    Folks buying multiple containers should have to show ID and sign a registration form at the place of purchase as the final act to completing the transaction. Note the code on the egg photo’d above – those codes should be included in multiple egg sale registration form, so that we can trace an attack to the purchaser.

    These kind of employe’s have been strategically placed in many occupations over the last 50 years by the progressive mafia. They use the anarchists, the working mentally ill and the educated malcontents to shuffle the system in government to destroy civilization and then own it for themselves. only the sane can see this. The biggest lie that their predecessor’s began was that a conspiracy cannot be supported for long. You must be sane to appreciate the truth let alone support it.

    Dam I’ve heard everything now. The police chief was scared? Man if this police chief is afraid of eggs, I would sure hate to see him try to handle a situation involving a knife, a gun, a bomb, or some other lethal device/weapon.

    The officers were pulling a prank? Crap, now they’ll wanna ban eggs because they scared a police chief. Folks, it just goes to show ya how dangerous eggs are nowadays. It’s very scary, frightening and dangerous. Obozzo better jump on this right away and get an egg ban going. Eggs are frightening and dangerous to cops.

    Anyone got a bottle of Ex Lax? I’m laughing so hard on this one……….I need to go take a good #2. What a ***** the chief is. and the cops who threw those eggs…….oh they are dangerous domestic terrorists attacking and frightening a police chief with eggs like that.

      The police force is a disciplined organization, and when you’ve got your own men egging your house in the middle of the night, then running. Those are signs of maliciousness intent; If I were going to play a practical joke on a superior, I’d do it in broad daylight and make a wiser choice as to the joke. There’s a problem with discipline. Now these guys are armed…

      First eggs in a drunken stupor – next?

      If you don’t make an example to restore discipline, organization breaks down.
