Judge Slaps Down Oakland Cop For Shielding Nameplate From Occupiers

(The Blaze/AP)- A federal judge in California has ruled that an Oakland police officer who covered his nameplate during a November Occupy protest seriously violated court-approved conduct standards for the city’s police department.
U.S. District Judge Thelton Henderson issued the ruling against officer John Hargraves and Oakland police Lt. Clifford Wong. Wong was accused of failing to report Hargraves‘ actions to the department’s internal affairs unit.
The Police Department later ordered Hargraves suspended for 30 days and demoted Wong to sergeant, according to The Chronicle. So far they are the only known reports of disciplinary orders against Oakland police during the Occupy protests. Hargraves is still on the job while he appeals his suspension.
The San Francisco Chronicle reports that Henderson has not decided whether to hold contempt proceedings against the officers, but did say in court that:
“If safety were considered a legitimate basis for violating laws and policies, there would, in essence, be no laws or policies governing police conduct,” Henderson said. He said it is a crime, as well as a violation of police policy, for officers to conceal their name or badge number.”
Hargraves has said he concealed his nameplate to protect himself and his family after an Occupy protester posted the name and address of another officer and called for burning down his home.
Hargraves and Wong’s lawyer declined to comment.

Posted on January 31, 2012 at 2:39pmI I know firsthand what it is like to have these nut jobs threaten not only me, but also my wife and kids. Many times I would have loved to hid my identity for fear of one of these radicals actually acting upon their threats. But I did not, and as a public servant I followed policy. Being a law enforcement officer is the toughest job on the planet, and we do our best to hide our feelings and often anger and show professionalism in the face of danger, harassment, and baseless attacks on our character. People expect too much from police, the expect us to solve their problem in 2 minutes that they have spent 20 years creating. People expect us to enforce the law except when they are the violators. The OWS movement is a perfect example. We allow them to protest, but when they infringe on the rights of others we must enforce the law and that is when they get bent out of shape and their true colors show. They have no Honor!

The police enforce laws that directly violate the constitution. The Police have sworn to uphold the constitution. Since they don’t care to violate the privacy of innocent people with warrant-less wiretaps and searches why should anyone care about their privacy. Let me pose it in a way you Neocons can understand.
If you are innocent what do they have to hide. Only criminals hide their identity right?
“Where do you think.“Bring them TO justice” came from? ”
Have you read the 1st amendment. “The amendment prohibits the making of any law respecting an establishment of religion, impeding the free exercise of religion, abridging the freedom of speech, infringing on the freedom of the press, interfering with the right to peaceably assemble or prohibiting the petitioning for a governmental redress of grievances..”
It is funny how you morons call be liberal when you support the actions of Jean Quan a democrat mayor who has no problem violating people’s freedom of speech. The right to peaceably assemble. Requiring permits and setting up limited speech zone is unconstitutional. Of course you neocons don‘t know that because you don’t believe in limited government.

It is not that hard to understand. There are two sides of the spectrum. Statist, which includes communist, neocons and morons and those who want freedom like our founding fathers. Newt, Santorum, Romney, Obama all want more government power. They are all STATIST. It doesn’t matter what flavor of statism(ie. Fascist, Socialist, communist) they are.

Meh. Every time there’s a story on here where someone disagrees with the actions of a person, someone else usually comes up with their address pretty quick. As Ghost implied, it’s simple to find addresses these days. What SHOULD be prosecuted is someone who posts an address and encourages harassment or violence toward the person involved.
And while the officer hiding his identity may be a symptom of the issue, it’s also a major problem. Secret police? No thank you.

Posted on January 31, 2012 at 12:08pmEven though I agree that an elected official or an officer of the law should be held in high regard, they do not, however, need to be held to a subjective standard. Our Constitution is the supreme law of the land and so everyone should be held to that from “top” all the way down. The application of the supreme law of the land has not been applied across the board in a long time…. I can supply many examples if you think that I need to. We should all be held equally to just laws that prohibit life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. I do not see where this law is just or in following of the Holy Bible. If there is a problem with pets biting people where the owners do not make restitution then there is already a law on the “books” for taking “liberty” away by causing harm. For those that would say “the Bible has nothing to do with this country and should not” need to take a hard look at the founding of this nation, or just read the inaugural speeches of the first 10 presidents, then say that G-d had nothing to do with the people who started this nation. If you try to point to the Holy Bible without understanding it, by pulling specific verses out of context, do not bother as I am not going to try to teach you through this medium.

Colorful masks, heck even the gas mask matches their outfits..I remember the crappy shields the evil Tea Party carried into the peaceful protest…Oh, wait…that was Libya…I can say for certain that bringing a shield to a protest, you have no intention of keeping it peaceful…I feel sorry for these officers..I’m going to write down all the addresses that they post and send them all lists of homes for sale here…Plus employment info in our law enforcement…Cheaper than Caly, and our justice system and population here respect our officers and the jobs they do. There is NO OWS here, and never will be.

Report Post »why are the people that posted police addresses etc on line and encouraged others to burn their house down not in jail? for life?
I think that’s calling for murdering the police and his family…murder..premeditated…put them in jail and make it stick.

Posted on January 31, 2012 at 10:39amUmm….these occupiers might and probably will take the officer’s name and post it on a web site, endangering the cop and his family. The judge is an idiot. These occupy people are now VERY dangerous and people need to be protected from them.

Posted on January 31, 2012 at 10:55amPost this judges name and address and photos of him and his significant other. See how he likes it. Occupy his lawn. Keep him up at night. Urinate on his flowers. Crap on his car. Just turn the tables on this clown and he’ll get the picture soon enough. The occupy movement is now making enemies all over this country. Their actions will not be tolerated much longer. The point is already made. The liberals have shown us what they are really like. Thanks.

Posted on January 31, 2012 at 10:38amYes! Keep punishing the law abiding citizens!! We haven’t thrown a couple of Border Patrolman into prison in a couple months or is it the deaths of Border Patrolman count as a buy for a couple months? California you are being over run with zombies and you don’t even know it!!!! I remeber the glory days in the Marine Corps when we didn’t have “name tags”…….Oh yes Oakland PD get ready for a lot more “law suits” directed at you in the name of “justice”!!!

Posted on January 31, 2012 at 10:38amSo Occupiers are allowed to wear masks and to harass police and their families ? Just Google this judge – especially his actions regarding the San Quentin Six. Disgusting.

Posted on January 31, 2012 at 10:57amThat was my thought also … these people are TERRORISTS (who else covers their faces?)… when will the MSM (we know the current regime in government never will) label these people as such.

Posted on January 31, 2012 at 10:41amThe US Constitution now says we are required to wear name tags? With how many video cameras are present in these protests I am sure a name tag helps identify real and perceived violations……..of course the “protest doctrine” says “when caught by law enforcemnt squeal and struggle like a stuck pig”……

Posted on January 31, 2012 at 6:38pmI only want to know someone’ name if they were rude (or incompetent) or I want to be personable (all the time) & don’ want to refer to them by number (badge #) or hey you.
Do you really like Mexico where the cops are bought or they are dead. Knowing the names of the cops really helped the cartels. It can happen here too.
