Deputies Fighting In Front of Inmates

[kellyhound]

A fight between a sheriff’s deputy and a deputy jailer broke out in front of inmates at detention center in Elizabethtown, Kentucky.

The brawl, which happened last week, was captured on camera. The security video was released by the Hardin County Sheriff’s Office.

In the footage, two men are seen yelling at each other. The altercation escalates and the deputy Clennon Smith grabs the jailer, Joe Funk, by the neck. It doesn’t end there.

As several people try to break up the fight, the men go at it again and fall to the floor. Officials said the fight began when the sheriff’s deputy tried to hand property of an inmate over to Funk and he allegedly threw it back.

Deputy Jailer Funk was arrested and charged with menacing, resisting arrest and assault. Deputy Sheriff Smith is still on the job

Where's Oswald?

On another note, so, the cop which puts his hands on the jailer doesn't get charged, but the jailer gets charged.. yeahhhh

[Bclancy95]

Yeah. The system is crooked. They charged the wrong person.

I dunno.... he did look like he was gonna go for him.

What, no tasers? Shit, I've seen those dumbasses accidentally tase each other when just fucking around.

I'd love to hear the audio that went along with this vid.

Fucking little kids man. I think that the tests required to be in law enforcement should include a much higher minimum intelligence quotient. I heard you take a test to be a cop and if you score too high, you're too smart and they tell you, "fuck off. No job for you."

Given that he came out from behind his enclosure to confront the deputy I would say the deputy had every reason to feel threatened and actively defend himself
