The guy was running around showing poor judgment for months, if not years. It's no wonder he showed such poor judgment in pulling over Luciano Arriaga and then assaulting him. I thought it was the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office with the lax employee standards, not the Phoenix Police Department.

And I'll sure watch my ass if a Phoenix patrolman ever pulls me over in a dark alley.
