I am not doubting you at all, just hadn''t seen any of the stories. Would like to know what the whole truth is before making an opinion.

patriot the first story was about a month ago. In that story it told of the list of citizen''s complaints against Nugent. I am all for cops(good ones) there are not enough stories telling of their good deeds, just stories of bad ones. I come from a long line of law enforcement officers, 2 cousins former DEA, my great grandpa was a cop in Dallas when the streets were still dirt. and i am proud of all of them.

The autopsy showed he was dead before the seventh taser shock.

I have seen people mentally deranged or on drugs that could laugh at a taser charge, or being sprayed with pepper gas. It is like fighting superman. I had a girl who was about 100 pounds high on cocaine and break my wrist in a fight while i was arresting her.

I didn''t see any other stories on this case. Was the victim black ? I honestly don''t know and don''t think it should make a difference. If the officer was wrong he should answer for it.

Are you insane or just a just trying to be funny? ----------------------------------- Posted by shaggydo



How come SERIOUS wasnt an option? Because I AM SERIOUS!

Any druggie who is so doped up that he can survive EIGHT Taser blasts, deserves #9!

Officer Nugents JOB is to get criminals OFF THE STREET, and I guarantee you, young Mister Pikes is no longer a menace to our society!

I guess I have my answer. Because if you read all available information and come up with those remarks. You must be ''seriously'' insane. Maybe you''ll get lucky and this fine example of law en-FORCE-ment will be hired in your community.

Did anybody read the first story that was printed on this incident? Scott Nugent has a long list of grievances filed against him for past offenses. He is a rogue cop and a racist and he is, by far, not the only cop in Louisiana like this.

I would likie to herar the facts of the case before deciding who was right or wrong. If the officer is guilty then let justice take its course. Wearing a badge does not put anyone above the law. I lived in Lousiana for 9 years so i know exactly what you are talking about.

hwy71 made a civil statement. I do not know why you felt a need to respond with insults.

I grew up in a small town in Louisiana and know first hand how "good ol boy policemen" operate. It''s about time the spotlight was on this problem there. Louisiana has got to come into the 21st century and realize that pea patch politics ain''t gonna work anymore. If you connections in Louisiana and get into trouble you can rest assured that you''re gonna get out of it. It all depends on what your last name is. And shaggydo just ignore Davicar2 He is a complete idiot. I hope they throw the book at Scott Nugent he deserves it.
