Cops think they know what the law is...




Tort:
A wrong. Hayes v Massachusetts Mut. Life Ins. Co. 125 111 626, 18 NE 322. 
A wrong independent of contract. International Ocean Tel. Co. v Saunders, 
32 Fla 434, 14 So 148. A breach of duty which the law, as distinguished from a
mere contract, has imposed. Western Union Tel. Co. v Taylor, 84 Ga 408, 11 SE 396.
An injury or wrong committed, either with or without force, to the person or property
of another. Such injury may arise by the nonfeasance, by the malfeasance, or by the
misfeasance of the wrongdoer. Gindele v Corrigan, 129 111 582, 22 NE 516.

In a general way, a tort is distinguished from a breach of contract in that the latter arises 
under an agreement of the parties, whereas the tort, ordinarily, is a violation of a duty 
fixed by law, independent of contract or the will of the parties, although it may sometimes 
have relation to obligations growing out of, or coincident with a contract, and frequently 
the same facts will sustain either class of action. Busch v Interborough Rapid Transit Co. 
187 NY 388, 80 NE 197

Crime:

commanding it; a breach or violation of some public right or duty due to a whole
community, considered as a community In its social aggregate capacity, as distinguished
from a civil injury. Wilkins v. U. S

Philadelphia Police Purchase and Plant Drugs, Split Proceeds of Robberies

Posted on 24 June 2013 On Cop Block.


Once again, those who have badges believe they have special rights – and are probably shocked and offended when they are actually held accountable.
Two Philadelphia police officers have been arrested and charged in trafficking  drugs and robbing alleged drug dealers while in uniform. According to a Grand Jury Indictment, Officers Jonathan Garcia and Sydemy Joanis stopped and searched people, and stole their drugs, while on duty and in full uniform.
Purportedly, these two officers bought drugs from  various dealers  and would plant crack cocaine inside dealers’ cars. The officers split the proceeds of the robberies between  themselves. More here.
