This is pretty unbelievable and very scary. How many other “law enforcement officials” are running around with improper training and supervision?

It seems pretty clear this guy was not qualified to be a police officer. It also sounds like there were others like him in the department.

I suspect the taxpayers of Tulsa County are going to be paying for the Sheriff’s bad judgement and lack of professionalism for years to come. Unfortunately, we cannot bring back this 44 year Eric Harris that was shot dead by what appears to be a guy that wanted to play cop.

Tragic and maddening.
