Bryan Gillis - the Louisville Police Detective who arrested Scottie Scheffler at Valhalla earlier this month - has fumed over his 'honesty and integrity' coming into question after all charges against the World No 1 golfer were dropped on Wednesday. Scheffler had faced four charges, including second-degree assault of a police officer, following the dramatic events of May 17; when he was arrested and led away in handcuffs after arriving for the second round of the PGA Championship. The 27-year-old was accused of speeding away in his car when told to pull over by officers - and dragging Gillis to the ground in the process - before he was arrested

He didn't turn on his camera and the surveillance camera and the dash cam showed he was lying. "Honesty and integrity", hah, he doesn't have any.

The article didn't mention: The police officer who put world No. 1 golfer Scottie Scheffler in handcuffs has a lengthy disciplinary record that includes multiple suspensions, employment records revealed Thursday. Gillis was suspended for five days for "conduct unbecoming" for driving "an intoxicated civilian in your police vehicle" and "proceeding to doing 'donuts' in a business parking lot," according to a Sept. 18, 2013, memo by then-Chief Steve Conrad. He was also disciplined for pursuing "a vehicle that did not commit a violent felony or wanted on a warrant," according to a June 9, 2021, memo by then-Chief Erika Shields. Gillis was found "at fault" for accidents on May 22, 2021, and Aug. 6, 2019, that led to oral reprimands. Gillis was also found to be "at fault" for a Dec. 1, 2013, accident that led to an oral reprimand and mandatory driver's training. The officer was hit with one-day suspensions in both 2010 and 2011 for failing to show up to court. That was followed by a four-day ban in 2012 for continuing to miss court appearances, documents showed.

It sounds like Gillis wanted to throw his weight around. Arresting and handcuffing Scheffler was absurd. And no one cares about your $80 pants.

This will blow over and be old news in 1-2 days. But my money is that Scottie will NOT sue LPD, and will, instead, let the matter drop. He has that kind of personal character. (Just a guess)

Detective Dobie couldn't help himself. He had to make excuses for his actions. His BWC was conveniently off so his remarks to Scottie could not be heard. Just like his actions at Vahalla, in his statement he jumped in like a vocal, uncontrolled Robocop. His actions at Vahalla spoke louder than his Scottie message. Dobie is a typical LMPD Leo, untrustworthy.

In my observation, over many decades of living (and practicing law) there are about 6 different types of people who go into law enforcement. This guy would probably be a 5 - the guy who was always picked on in school and now has a badge to show all those uppity people that HE is one they'd better respect (Barney Fife type) or maybe 4 - a bully in school and now he has a badge to make it legal. Both types are insufferable jerks.

I normally "back the blue" in almost all cases. I did have an unpleasant encounter many years ago with a 'bully with a badge'. There are some guys who shouldn't be cops and it sounds like the guy who arrested Scottie needs a different career. Then again, I wasn't there to judge.

I support LawEnforcement. The 'Detective' is lucky to still have a job. Andthe City of Louisville narrowly escaped a very expensive settlement! Scottie had a shot at a Major here, and I would suggest the experience negatively effected his performance!

The MSNBC anchor spoke after Trump was found guilty on all 34 felony counts, which she described as 'everything the prosecution asked for' before she challenged the nation to accept the verdict. 'The test here for us as a country is not about what happens on appeal, and not about sentencing,' she said. 'It is about whether or not this former president and his allies will have succeeded in trying to undermine the rule of law.' 'The jury, by all accounts, took this very very seriously,'

Former president Donald Trump was convicted on Thursday by a New York jury on 34 felony charges for falsifying business records, making him the first president in U.S. history to become a convicted felon. Over the past six weeks at the state courthouse in lower Manhattan, the prosecution sought to demonstrate that Trump, his former fixer and attorney Michael Cohen, and National Enquirer publisher David P* participated in a conspiracy to defraud voters ahead of the 2016 presidential election by paying off women to conceal embarrassing stories about the then-presidential candidate’s sexual history without properly recording those payments as campaign-finance expenses.

Most thought that Robert De Niro’s “performance” in the title role as Dirty Grandpa, where he played a lecherous, unhygienic, and maniacal grandfather, was his worst. But De Niro managed the seemingly impossible by stooping deeper into the bowels of self-humiliation that made Dirty Grandpa seem like Citizen Kane. This is when he had myriad unhinged foulmouthed public outbursts and made violent threats at various events. His target was democratically-elected President Donald Trump. De Niro’s utterances once again proved that profanity is the last resort of the vacuous. As expected, the madness was cheered in the liberal echo chambers of Hollywood and D.C.

Washington — The U.S. economy grew at a sluggish 1.3% annual pace from January through March, the weakest quarterly rate since the spring of 2022, the government said Thursday in a downgrade from its previous estimate. Consumer spending rose but at a slower pace than previously thought. The Commerce Department had previously estimated that the nation’s gross domestic product — the total output of goods and services — expanded at a 1.6% rate last quarter. The first quarter’s GDP growth marked a sharp slowdown from the vigorous 3.4% rate in the final three months of 2023.
