From the Record-Journal:
Officer John Slepski and John Slezak’s actions responding to the report of an intoxicated man lying in the middle of the road resulted in unpaid suspensions for both officers — 60 days for Slepski, starting on Feb. 2, and five days for Slezak, which started on Feb. 5.
The video shows a roughly three-minute interaction between the officers and the man. Both officers’ tone during the encounter is demeaning and sarcastic. Slepski can be heard using explicit language and states to Slezak “I think we oughta just (expletive) pop him.” Slepski can be heard saying with apparent sarcasm that they should drop the man off in Durham or “off the castle.” Slezak states that they should drop him off in Southington.
At least Kristin Stoller of the Hartford Courant wasn’t reporting on this, otherwise the offending quote would’ve disappeared from the video and the accompanying article.
