    In small towns it is not uncommon for cops to have people they don't like - you give cops too much power and the potential is there to abuse it.

    20 years ago two of my brothers decided to move out West because the cops in our town started following them around constantly - arrested them for every little thing... including tossing them in the drunk tank even if they were barely drunk. They are lucky street racing laws, 3-day suspensions for being under impaired, and 90 day suspensions for impaired (before trial) didn't exist back then.
    Sounds like you grew up in a similar small town that I did. It took my own mother to threaten to charge the police with harrasment before the local boys layed off my brother and I. Nothing like getting pulled over outside your own driveway because the locals didn't like you and you shared the same last name as someone else they didn't like.

    There are many whiney/squid/goof riders out there. I'd go so far as to say that a lot of riders are complete *******.

    The difference lies in the fact that they aren't sworn to up hold the law and held to a higher standard.

    So I guess that means there are many dirty cops abusing their new found powers of judge and jury? or do police not make mistakes. That is the official OPP press line after all.

    If found guilty, I hope they fire him, charge him, and take his license away!

    I find it very strange an officer would have his picture on facebook.
    My best friend has been an officer for 3 years and he just got facebook this past week, however he has no pictures visible.

    This OPP guy isn't the brightest.

    here is the facebook link here http://www.facebook.com/people/Denni...ruer/562455198
    Wow, he does look like a tool! Imagine him pulling you over with that smirk on his face!

    I should send him a message saying that he is the newest celebrity over at GTAM and ask him for an interview! lol

    No, but if he is convicted, they would stand a good chance of suing the individual officer for the losses and having it upheld. And if reimbursement isn't voluntarily offered in out of court settlement, maybe even the court costs. Of course, as typical, the onus would be on the individuals affected to seek reimbursement. Let's hope that he does get convicted, the precedent alone would bode well for victims of those that are vermin wearing a badge, that all too often think they are above the law.

    Fingers crossed that he gets the maximum penalty for his actions (if he really was in the wrong)

    Re: OPP charges officer for falsifying Stops!

    In all fairness. The police services act stipulates that an officer charged with an offence should get suspended with pay. The reality is that you are supposed to be innocent until proven guilty. We boost about this fundamental right taken away from us by the new street racing law yet we forget that it applies for everybody! We have to remember, not all cops are crooked, and its good that the provincial police investigated and charged this individual, as i cannot call him a cop if the charges get proven in court.

    Re: FYI - OPP officer(Sgt. Dennis Mahoney-Bruer) charged with falsifying traffic stop

    A quick google search can return a quote of two from this guy.

    Ontario police Sgt. Dennis Mahoney-Bruer has heard that excuse too many times, and after hearing the same thing over and over – he's even watched grown men bawl their eyes out in front of him – his sympathy is wearing thin.
    "A little indication (is) if you're going down the highway and you're passing everybody – hello, chances are you're speeding," Mahoney-Bruer said, before adding that some excuses do tug on his heart strings and make him pause before calling a tow truck.
    "We're all human, we all have a certain amount of feelings . . . but we have that rule now and we're really sticking to it. We really want to get the message to the people out there that you're not going to talk your way out of this."

    go see a lawyer if you were affected....you'll get a lot more than your impound fees back if he's convicted.
    and my guess is somebody had a tape recorder going....otherwise he never would have been charged...police corruption, lying, naw - couldn't be!

    Re: OPP Officer Charged For Allegedly Falsifying Traffic Stops

    Anyone ever been ticketed by Sgt. Dennis Mahoney-Bruer?

    It might be time to contact the below number if you were.

    OPP Officer Charged For Allegedly Falsifying Traffic Stops

    The OPP have arrested and suspended one of their own, after an officer was accused of laying charges against three different drivers for speeding or violating the new street racing law based on false evidence.

    One was accused of exceeding the posted limit, while the other two were alleged to have violated the province's street racing law and had their licences suspended and their cars temporarily seized. The OPP Professional Standards Bureau won't say how they came across the accusations but admits all charges against the trio have since been withdrawn.

    Insp. Dave Ross won't say what the motive might have been.

    The allegations make other stops Sgt. Dennis Mahoney-Bruer may have been involved with suspect as well and a review of all his past cases is underway. Ross tells CityNews.ca that could keep investigators busy for a while - as many as 200 provincial cases and 50 criminal cases are being given a second look.

    The 49-year-old cop has been a member of the force for 12 years and is based in Port Credit. His primary patrol area is the QEW and Highway 403.

    The accused has been suspended from duty with pay and will appear in a Brampton court on July 13th. He's charged with three counts of breach of trust and one of obstructing justice.

    Commissioner Julian Fantino, often cited as a 'cop's cop,' is disappointed by the outcome but says it's vital the public knows he won't stand for anything untoward in the ranks.

    "It was important for the OPP to initiate an immediate investigation and a comprehensive review, with the intent to bolster safeguards, to prevent similar situations in the future," he notes in a statement. "I believe that the public trust is a fundamental cornerstone of the OPP and policing."

    If you think you were unfairly stopped by this officer and have a complaint to make, call (905) 278-6131.

    Re: OPP charges officer for falsifying Stops!

    The funniest part of this thread is the lack of posts from all our police members?!
    When someone posts complaints about the street racing laws etc.... every cop on this forum comes out of the woodwork to bash em', and flaps their lips to praise the powers of the police.
    Suddenly it's quieter than a mouse fart in here.....
