[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 3259897, member: 26737"] My Criminal Investigations prof was a retired cop, and he shared an incident from when he was a young patrol officer in California (I took the class around 1990, so the event probably would've been in the late '60s or early '70s). He was on patrol when he got a call about a disturbance in an alley between/behind a couple of apartment buildings. When he arrived, he found a severely drunken longshoreman raping a six year old girl. He said it was a really bad scene, with a lot of blood, and his first job was to get the guy off the girl, which he managed to do without too much difficulty (the guy was big, but way too drunk to fight). He got the guy cuffed, then went and helped the little girl until the paramedics arrived. By this time, quite a crowd had developed, and his next job was to keep the crowd (read: angry mob) from killing the guy. This he managed to do, getting the guy stuffed in the patrol car and out of the scene as soon as backup arrived, and hauled him down to the precinct house. Up to this point, the guy was relatively unscathed, and my prof's professionalism had held out. And it continued to hold out until they got into the station, whereupon the bad guy proceeded to trip and fall up the stairs. Twice. FWIW, the prof said he always regretted that last part, and that he should've let the system handle it. Now, having several nieces, I'm not sure I could've been as restrained as he was... [/QUOTE]
