DALLAS –– An internal affairs investigation sustained five allegations that a Dallas police lieutenant slept on on duty, arrived to work impaired and took batteries out of vehicles while supervising the department’s auto pound.
Lt. Mike Magiera was caught sleeping on duty and was reported to his supervisors, who requested he be tested for prescription drug abuse. Officers drew blood to check for drugs.
In a surveillance video obtained by News 8, Magiera is asked to perform a field sobriety test. He’s seen stumbling and is asked by an officer if he knows all the instructions. When he tries to lift his foot, he’s seen stumbling again.
I know firing him seems to be the right thing to do.But they will never do the right thing.I live in the real world they inhabit some rarified place where even the motor pool dude is an indispensable hero doing gods work.I predict a medical with full bennies.
More indispensableness Dallas police officer recommended for termination for spotty attendance record
DALLAS -- A Dallas police senior corporal has been recommended for termination for repeatedly not coming to work or leaving work without authorization.
Sr. Cpl. Debra Crues, who joined the force in 1990, now faces a hearing before Police Chief David Brown who will determine her discipline.
The recommendation for termination during a disciplinary hearing Thursday came as the result of sustained allegations in six separate internal affairs investigations from 2013. For example, supervisors say Crues left her job at the communications section and didn’t tell them one day last March. Crues repeatedly failed to come to work in late April and early May.

I guess the only way to get fired immediately is if you try and do the right thing.
There's another one where another cop beat his wife and got a 5 day suspension it's at the paper it's got a paywall so I won't send you there.
That's three for today already I feel a quinfecta in the making.Come on coppers make my day.
