David B. Thompson, a Multnomah County, Oregon sheriff's deputy and jail worker, has apparently been whiling away the hours playing an online game using county work computers while on duty at the jail. It seems that while he was goofing off when he was supposed to be working, he allegedly posted several comments boasting about using TASERS on people, and the joy he gets from doing so:
“Seeing someone get Tasered is second only to pulling the trigger. That is money – puts a smile on your face.”
Playing online games for hours at a time and torturing people to get your jollies - sounds like a dream job for a lazy, cowardly bully like Thompson.
Deputy Thompson is now under investigation for these allegations, as well as for bragging online about severely beating an inmate and then filing a false police report claiming that the inmate was the instigator of the incident.
Most administration-level police officials want the sale and use of TASERS, as they do with handguns, to be restricted to highly-trained, professional law enforcement officers such as this fellow. The average citizen would probably just go around getting their rocks off by shocking people with them.
