A former Ashtabula, Ohio police department lieutenant, who was responsible for $9 million in civil settlements because he's a trigger happy moron, was fired from the city PD after their insurance company told the city that he was uninsurable and that they would be dropped from their excess liability coverage if they didn't get rid of him.
However, he was immediately hired by the local Sheriffs office.
The sheriff said that he's a "good cop" whom the city should've fought for. (One of the shooting incidents involved the lieutenant paralyzing the victim of a home invasion who had managed to detain and hold down the burglar. Super cop burst through the front door and emptied his clip at the first person that he saw without saying a word.)
Additionally, despite the fact that the officer was fired, the city's insurance premiums have quadrupled. They also no longer have coverage for larger settlement amounts, meaning that they'll have to come directly from the city's general fund.
Amazing that you can ruin several lives and the entire budget of a town but still easily find work as a cop.
