A Greenville County deputy who shot a Simpsonville homeowner through his front-door window has been cleared of criminal wrongdoing.
The State Law Enforcement Division investigated the shooting and submitted findings to the state Attorney General’s Office, which recommended that no criminal charges be filed against Deputy Kevin Azzara.
“It is my legal opinion that the officer used lawful force under the circumstances. As such, we are not recommending initiation of criminal charges against the officer,” Jerrod Fussnecker, an assistant attorney general, wrote in a disposition letter to SLED that was obtained by The Greenville News.
The man, Dick Tench, plans to file a lawsuit against the Sheriff’s Office, his lawyer told The News on Wednesday.
“He wants to seek justice and if it was up to Dick, this officer would no longer be on the force,” Ashmore said Wednesday. “Dick wants to tell his story and wants his story to get out, and one day that will happen in a jury trial setting.”
Yea, we talked about this, and we all knew nothing would come of it. If it were up to me, this officer would be in prison awaiting charges on assault with a deadly weapon, intent to inflict bodily injury, trespassing, and attempted manslaughter.
But as you know, there are two sets of rules: one for us, and one for “the only ones.” And they wonder why everyone hates them.

As long as the badgemonkeys face no consequences for their criminal misconduct they will CONTINUE to engage in criminal misconduct. It
has become appallingly clear that the “justice” (sic) system has absolutely
ZERO intentions of ever holding cops accountable under the law for
willful illegal violence. That means the ONLY way they get reined in
is the old fashioned way. Paging Mr. Paul Kersey…..Mr. Paul Kersey to
the white courtesy phone. Your services are needed.

It’s the entire “justus” apparatus, not just the cops. Corruption at all levels and agencies is off the charts. Best to avoid all contacts with the only ones if possible.

I don’t know if it’s accurate to say “everyone hates them.” After a recent incident where our local Sheriff Deputies surrounded a neighbor of mine and terrorized her so badly that almost a week after the incident she told me that she still got scared just opening the door to go outside, I posted details of the incident on two local Facebook groups. I was stunned at the number of cop worshipers out there who immediately came to the defense of the thugs involved.
This is in Okanogan County, Washington, a very rural area with a low population density.

“…has been cleared of criminal wrongdoing.”
Of course he has, and don’t you forget it!
If YOU shot a man through the front door of his home, from outside, YOU would be charged with Attempted Murder. The difference between you and this cop, or any cop, is that HE MEANT WELL when he attempted to murder the homeowner. Get it?
He wears a Super Hero Costume and bears a Magic Shield. He can’t be wrong!
Now if we could just convince these “civilians” that it is in their best interest to submit and comply, these things will happen less frequently.
Submit! Submit! Its what Free Men do!
