A Durham Region police officer threatened to beat up a man and plant coc aine on him during a one-sided, expletive-filled confrontation, a graphic video shows.
“I hurt people . . . and then I make their coc aine f---ing appear,” the armed constable barks into the face of the burly, young man. “You see how I work. . . . See what I do.”
The Star is not aware of the context of the incident outside what is seen in the video.
“Shut your f---ing mouth and do something . . . do something please, do f---ing something . . . take a swing, so I can. . . ” says the constable in the video which is barely audible at several points.
Durham police disciplined the constable, who uses the f-word more than three dozen times in the video, for discreditable conduct over the incident. He remains on the force’s “front lines.”
A source familiar with one of the house’s occupants said they set up and filmed videos of police visits after officers had been “harassing” them there for weeks.]
