The cop, a seven-year veteran, had told investigators he didn’t help the injured man because he rode up to the scene as the beating was nearly over, sources said. The development came as another biker who helped in driver Alexian Lien’s beat-down was arraigned in Manhattan Court on Tuesday. Craig Wright, 29, of Brooklyn can allegedly be seen on video throwing punches through the shattered driver’s-side window of the 33-year-old victim’s Range Rover in front of Lien’s terrified wife and 2-year-old daughter. Wright is also seen allegedly kicking Lien outside the SUV. He was held on $100,000 bail Tuesday. As for the undercover cop, disgusted law-enforcement sources said Monday that Internal Affairs Bureau higher-ups want to nail the officer. “The cop is a total mope. F—ing embarrassment, ’’ one source seethed. “They should can him immediately. Anyone else who was even peripherally involved should be canned.” Still, probers believe their hands are tied, sources said, because prosecutors declined to press ahead with the case against another biker, Allen Edwards, 43, of Queens, who allegedly punched the driver’s side rear window of Lien’s SUV before Lien was pummeled. At the time, the chief of the Manhattan district attorney’s Trials Division, Karen Friedman Agnifilo, defended the move, saying, “Prematurely charging individuals with low-level crimes does not further the goals of the investigation and could weaken the cases we expect to bring against the perpetrators of serious crimes.” The investigation is continuing, a source noted. But the undercover cop will likely face internal charges. He didn’t tell his bosses he was with the bikers — much less at the crime scene — until more than three days after the Sept. 29 attack.[/QUOTE] [url]http://nypost.com/2013/10/07/bike-cop-joined-in-on-suv-beatdown-video-reveals/[/url]
Lying sack of shit. I don't care if he's off-duty, a police officer should never fall to such standards and then lie about his involvement in the matter to the face of his fellow officers and investigators. You're a cop one way or another, not some thug with the badge on your side.
and now he'll get "disciplinary leave" aka "here take this money while we attempt to cover our asses"
Isn't the whole point of being an "undercover" cop exactly that you Don't act like a cop?
I don't understand how he can be off duty and undercover at the same time.

[QUOTE=willer;42459531]I don't understand how he can be off duty and undercover at the same time.[/QUOTE] He's a double agent.
That must have one hard ass slap to shatter the back windows. [QUOTE=Killoch0;42457390]Isn't the whole point of being an "undercover" cop exactly that you Don't act like a cop?[/QUOTE] He didnt have to take part in fucking up that guy's car. Hell judging from the video it seemed like a lot of the other bikers just watched.

"I'm going to protect and serve the fuck out of you"
I recant my statement I made on the first thread about this. These guys were clearly out of control, and the undercover/off duty cop should not have helped the assault. In fact if there were ever a time to break cover and help someone, this was it.

[QUOTE=willer;42459531]I don't understand how he can be off duty and undercover at the same time.[/QUOTE] He's not. They are calling him an undercover cop in order to get public support on his side. That is, they are portraying him as a public servant trying to protect his identity because of how dangerous a job he has. The truth, that he's some guy riding with a gang of bikers who were breaking the law and terrorizing a family, that doesn't sound too good if you're his superiors trying to protect the police department's image does it? What he does when he's on the clock at work is irrelevant here. He was not investigating these bikers, the department has already said that. Therefore his job has nothing to do with this incident, he was there as a private citizen.
[QUOTE=SgtCr4zyGunz;42460880]if an undercover cop is willing to harm innocents then he's indistinguishable from the criminals he's associating with.[/QUOTE] I'd say there could be some very uncommon exceptions to that rule, where, you have no choice, but, this is definitely not one of them. (like what happened in reservoir dogs?, though that's pretty different as its a movie, and I have literally no other examples :v: probably a pretty bad one anyways.)
