Brian R.P. Schimmel will probably find another law enforcement job my guess. Might not be high paying but somebody somewhere will hire him.
It's a lot more likely he will end up unemployed, and unemployable once his little video performance is shown to any PD boss stupid enough to give him a job in the first place. He will wear the "Mark of Cain" for the rest of his miserable life- - - -hopefully, it will be a short one. If justice is served eventually, a bigger, more powerful bully will stomp his sociopath azz into a mudhole and laugh while he's doing it. Karma is a beeyotch!
There was previous video footage from his time with a former agency that resulted in him being sent back for more training and none of that mattered to South Whitley PD.
South Whitley PD knew about the slamming the 18 year old female incident for 2 months and thought it was fine and dandy.
There is no reason to believe he won't get hired at another agency.
Blow a fuse? I'm hoping that one of these hardcore 24hr members would do the lords work and "loosen his brain matter" (in the words of the BeardedGunsmith)
All cawps are bastards.....should be treated as such.
I've written it now multiple times, police forces should not exist. Hopefully one day that happens. Free people should not be harassed by government goons.
He's not fit to patrol an ant farm. What an a s s h o l e.
The question now is where is he slapping on a new uniform tomorrow.
FBI, Khakis and a Red ball cap. Oh, and Ray-Bans
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.
Seems like I always have been a strong supporter of LEOs wherever we have lived and worked, and for very good reasons. But, great appreciation for all of the fine cops I have known or seen perform does not erase the experiences of the occasional bad ones - the contrast only intensifies the differences.
For me, the biggest lesson from this example is the attitude aspect. It pops up as a glaring example at times. No matter how much knowledge of the job and good training takes place, some individuals will abuse the role/authority and fail to serve as sworn. There is something in their makeup and personal needs that is overly selfish - so the specific knowledge, training and heavy authority tends to intensify the bad behavior they cannot resist.
One good addition to the LEO hiring criteria would be a definitive test to reveal such disqualifying personality and attitude traits - before any training is even attempted.

Excellent points.
An important additional factor is the culture of the particular department. It does vary.
As far as the screening procedures, the main fly in that ointment is time and cost. There is no quick and cost effective psychological assessment procedure. Understandably, that has been sort of a holy grail of LE agencies. I call it psychologist in a can, doesn't exist. The most that departments typically do is administer something like the MMPI, have the results reviewed by a psychologist. The problem with that is that candidates are motivated to lie, and do. The MMPI will detect faking, but not correct for it. It just reduces the validity of the test. Faking on employment tests was the subject of my master's thesis. There is no shortcut, easy answer. Careful multi-step selection followed by ongoing training and monitoring, while protecting the rights of the employee. Good leadership at all levels. Political support.
I recall there was some research that indicated that the quality of the FTO was a big factor in how the new officer turned out. No surprise.
Of course for decades there has been affirmative action, now called DEI, with the civil rights establishment attacking on the basis of "adverse impact". Forced LE agencies and many others to throw out their best hiring practices in favor of a numbers game.

This Bad Apple cops giving Good cops a bad reputation Bullschit is why thy continue to do what they do with impunity.
If a “good” cop witnesses a “ Bad” cop doing what bad cops do and does nothing, HE IS A BAD COP. DUH

Before we get to the details of this, what has happened to the law enforcement profession in the last 5 years?
It’s been dragged through the mud by the left.
I used to think that I could do a profession like this. Now, you couldn’t pay me enough to do it. I think there are a lot of officers serving now that wouldn’t be serving 10 years ago because they suck and wouldn’t get hired. Bet you get what you get in the application process. As with any profession that requires the management of high stress situations, it’s imperative to have the right kind of person. And that person needs to be appreciated and compensated. But since the profession has been so vilified, here we are.
More of this is going to happen unfortunately. It was the Left’s intent all along IMO.

Smart Phones and personal Dash Cams, their behavior has not changed, they now can no longer hide and lie.

The only thing new is more and more video recording devices along with the ability to share the video.

Every "cop commits wrong doing" story I can recall where not getting paid enough comes up as an excuse will have the cop's salary significantly higher than the average person in that county.
The average person(making less) isn't going to engage in criminal behavior.
If the average person(making less money) engages in criminal behavior, anyone defending their actions under the "not earning enough" banner will typically be ridiculed by the crowd that uses the "not earning enough" excuse for bad cops.

He's a Caucasian male, same as [bleep](now dead [bleep]) Darrel Cain was in early 1970s Dallas, Texas.
The municipality had video footage of Schimmel being an [bleep] and his written version of events(which had very little resemblance to the video footage) for almost 3 months and were pleased with his actions. There is also video of him being an [bleep] before they hired and a record of him being sent back for retraining due to being an [bleep].
They didn't miss some barely perceptible tell that he is an [bleep]. They knew he was an [bleep] and liked what they saw.
Seems like this psych exam was correct but this department hired them anyway. https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/alameda-sheriff-deputies/3013680/ This supposed cop can't recognize a flustered intimidated 115 lb. girl. Stay alert but maybe talk her down to do your job and leave a positive experience in her mond.
Fight fire, save lives, laugh in the face of danger.
