HEMET POLICE OFFICERS ARE BRUTAL, DISHONEST AND KNOW HOW TO GET YOU CRIMINALLY PROSECUTED WHEN YOU ARE THE REAL VICTIM OF THEIR BEATINGS AND FALSE ARRESTS.

LAPD Batting Practice in the ParkMost of the time when the police beat-you-up or falsely arrest you, or otherwise violate your constitutional rights, they at least attempt to procure your malicious criminal prosecution, to protect themselves and their fellow officers and employing agency from civil liability. Accordingly, Mr. Steering has been involved in literally thousands of criminal “resistance offense” cases, such as violations of Cal. Penal Cod §§ 69 (felony resisting officer with threat or use of force or violence, a wobbler), 148(a)(1) (misdemeanor resisting or obstructing or delay peace officer), 240/241(c) (assault of peace officer), 242/243(b) & (c) (misdemeanor and felony battery on peace officer) and 245(c) (assault on peace officer with deadly weapon or by means likely to result in great bodily injury).

Hemet Police Officers are no different. If you tell them that you know your rights, they are going to show you that you don’t have any rights, when they tase you or beat you with a baton, or punch your lights out with their fists, and thereafter take you to the Vista Detention Center on bogus criminal charges for some “resistance offense”, for what is known in the police profession as “Contempt of Cop“.

Mr. Steering has litigated police misconduct cases in federal court in Riverside County (the United States District Court for the Central District of California) for many years now. Unfortunately, because so many residents of San Diego County are current and former military, jurors in police misconduct / civil rights trial against the police are very difficult to win.

White Cop Loving JuryThey love the cops in Riverside County, and at the end of the day, it doesn’t matter what the law says, or what the Judge says, or what the jury instructions say, or even what the evidence shows, if a jury of mostly white cop-loving jurors don’t vote for you, and don’t condemn the actions of the defendant police officers and deputy sheriffs.

All that does matter in the real world, is whether a civil jury unanimously votes for you. Otherwise, you have no rights, because your rights only exist to the extent that you can get a jury of mostly white cop-loving jurors vote for you in your civil rights trial. Rights without a remedy (i.e. getting a jury to vote for you) are no rights at all.

Mr. Steering can maximize your chances of winning your case against the police for violating your federal and state constitutional and statutory rights, due to his intellect, tenacity and many years of experience in suing the police; since 1984.

POLICE MISCONDUCT IN RIVERSIDE COUNTY.

Because “ratting out fellow officer is not a good career move, and because of the obvious political and practical consequences of not backing-up the their fellow officers (i.e. false testimony and false police reports), the norm in today’s police profession, is for peace officers to falsely arrest, and procure the bogus criminal prosecution (i.e. to literally “frame”) of those civilians, whose Constitutional rights and basic human dignity have been violated.

The gang at the Riverside County Sheriff's Department Jurupa Valley Station

The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department is especially disgraceful when it comes to abusing civilians and framing them for crimes that they didn’t commit, to protect their deputy sheriffs from civil, disciplinary and criminal liability.

Mr. Steering constantly sues the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department more and more often these days, because the simple truth is, that the Department is simply a morally bankrupt organization. When a Riverside County Sheriff’s Department deputy sheriff uses unreasonable force or falsely arrest civilians, the department encourages further constitutional transgressions, by defended the outrages against the public committed by the deputies.

They don’t properly train their deputy sheriffs, and not only tolerate the use of unreasonable force and their accompanying false arrests and malicious criminal prosecutions, but, by case by case of backing the deputies, promote and encourage future constitutional violations. If you’re reading this article, you are probably a person who wouldn’t have believed these serious allegations, until they actually happened to you or yours.

These deputy sheriff’s procure the bogus their victims’ false criminal prosecutions, to beat-down the innocents who’s constitutional. Sheriff Sniff’s Professional Standards Bureau (Internal Affairs) has become the “white wash” wing of that agency. Under great political pressure, the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department has just started using body cam recording devices. However, they are just clip on devices, and they can be made to not have been on or working when the Sheriff’s Department wants the recording to exist or not.

DON’T LOOK TO THE RIVERSIDE COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S OFFICE TO PROTECT YOU FROM THE POLICE. THEY AREN’T INTERESTED.

Riverside-County-Sheriff-Chad-Bianco-greets-Riverside-County-District-Attorney-Mike-HestrinRiverside County if rife with Police Misconduct; especially since the District Attorney of Riverside County, Mike Hestrin, has taken discretion away from his Deputy District Attorneys to dismiss even bogus “resistance offense” cases, such as “resisting / delaying / obstructing officer” or battery on a peace officer.

The Deputy District Attorneys who file criminal cases in Riverside County Superior Court have at most an average of 15 minutes to review the police report from the arresting police agency, and make a decision as to where to criminally prosecute you. The filing Deputy District Attorneys. Moreover, the Riverside County District Attorney’s Office has now taken the power to dismiss even de minimis criminal cases away from the line Deputy District Attorneys in Riverside County.

Accordingly, as the filing Deputy District Attorneys don’t get to look at the police or other video and audio recordings before they decide to file a regular criminal “resistance offense” such as resisting arrest or battery on peace officer, which is really almost always battery by a peace officer.

If you are being prosecuted for some sort of “resistance offense”, the Deputy District Attorney on your case must seek permission from his/her superiors to dismiss any case where the alleged “victim” is a peace officer. They only get that permission when you have basically a video or audio recording that the police lie their way out of; something that they do for a living.

These so called respectable criminal prosecutors really do criminally prosecute the victims of police outrages, knowing that they are prosecuting the real victim. It is simply shameful.
