What? A hypocrite with a (D) after their name? Hard to believe…<\/p>\n
Hawaii Democratic state Rep. Sharon Har, a longtime crusader for harsher punishments for drunken drivers, found herself in handcuffs late last month for allegedly driving under the influence in Honolulu, as seen in newly released police bodycam video.<\/p>\n
Investigators this week released video of her Feb. 22 arrest.<\/p>\n
She was accused of driving under the influence the wrong way down a one-way street, the Honolulu Star-Advertiser reported.<\/p>\n
Back in 2008, she had pushed for stricter drunken driving laws after surviving a crash involving a drunken driver, according to the newspaper.<\/p>\n
On her website, she lists the DUI law among her greatest legislative accomplishments. It requires an ignition interlock advice be installed in the vehicle of someone arrested for allegedly driving under the influence. She also touts a separate drunken driving crackdown signed in June 2012.<\/p>\n
One of the arresting officers wrote in a police report that Har “related that she was going to be the next governor, but \u2018this\u2019 will mess up her plans,” the Star-Advertiser reported.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Aw man, now she won’t be governor. What a shame. I weep for the state of Hawaii for their loss.<\/p>\n
Har declined to take a breathalyzer test and said, “Just take me in,” opening the driver’s side door.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Always a good look for someone who’s truly innocent, right?<\/p>\n
Har later apologized to her colleagues in the state legislature, saying she had had an upper-respiratory illness and had mixed prescription cough medicine with a single beer, according to KHON, a local TV station.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Right…If you believe that, then you’re probably dumb enough to vote for her for governor.<\/p>\n

Tampa police officer fired for using N-word<\/h3>\n
Delvin White said it wasn\u2019t derogatory, but as \u2018commonly used in today\u2019s society as a means of shared culture.\u2019<\/p>\n
A Black police officer in Tampa, Florida was fired this week for using the n-word. Delvin White, who worked as a school resource officer at Middleton High School, was allegedly captured on his body camera using the slur on two occasions.<\/p>\n
White\u2019s union, the Tampa Police Benevolent Association, says it will fight for his job.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe, including Officer White, believe he should have been punished because we all agree no officer should speak that way, but the punishment does not fit the allegations,\u201d said union spokesperson Danny Alvarez in an interview Wednesday. \u201cOfficer White has an incredible record of contributing not only to his community but to the TPD, and to lose him over this would be a travesty.\u201d<\/p>\n
White reportedly called a student the n-word while he was arresting him. Nearly half of Middleton\u2019s students are Black, compared to just one in five district wide.<\/p>\n
Tampa Police Chief Brian Dugan said he has received dozens of messages supporting White from people who want him remaining on the job. However, Dugan also said it was \u201ctroubling\u201d that a school resource officer would use that language with a student.<\/p>\n
\u201cI look at a school resource officer as equivalent to a teacher,\u201d he said. \u201cWould you want a teacher to talk to your son in that manner?\u201d<\/p>\n
According to a report from the Tampa Bay Times, Middleton High math teacher and softball coach Kristina Ravenel wrote Chief Dugan in support of White, saying, \u201cIn my six years at Middleton, he is the only officer that I have known who supports all of our students regardless of the situation.\u201d<\/p>\n
White also reportedly used the n-word when referring to himself, as well as when speaking in general about students at his school while on the phone with his wife. That instance was captured on his body-worn camera. He referred to the teens as \u201cghetto n-words.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Black officer audaciously told his superior officer that he used the n-word not as derogatory, but as \u201ccommonly used in today\u2019s society as a means of shared culture and experiences among the African American community.\u201d<\/p>\n
White has been with Tampa\u2019s police department for eight years and has been an student resource officer at Middleton High School since 2018. His union is appealing his dismissal.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
He should know better. He can’t play the black card. He’s blue.<\/p>\n

Florida man sentenced to 20 years for cutting off wife\u2019s lover\u2019s penis<\/h3>\n
An update from a previous column.<\/p>\n
A Florida man who tied up his wife\u2019s lover, held him at gunpoint and cut off his penis with a pair of scissors will serve a 20-year prison sentence for his crime.<\/p>\n
Alex Bonilla, 51, entered a plea of no contest last month on charges of kidnapping to inflict bodily harm, burglary while armed, aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and aggravated assault with a firearm during the July 2019 attack.<\/p>\n
He was also sentenced to 10 years of probation.<\/p>\n
The Gilchrist County Sheriff\u2019s Office said the victim called 911 around 11 a.m. on July 14, 2019 and said Bonilla, who was his neighbor, broke into his home armed with a gun and said that if the victim tried to resist, he\u2019d kill him.<\/p>\n
From there, deputies said Bonilla forced the victim into the bedroom and tied him up then \u201cforcefully cut off the victim\u2019s penis with a pair of scissors.\u201d<\/p>\n
Records show Bonilla took the severed appendage and ran off across the street to his own home.<\/p>\n
Deputies never revealed a motive for the crime but said Bonilla had discovered the victim having sex with his wife about two months prior.<\/p>\n
Court records show several friends and relatives of Bonilla wrote to a county judge, asking for leniency before the sentencing.<\/p>\n
Bonilla\u2019s son wrote that he\u2019d like his father back home to contribute to the household financially and help his younger sister learn to read.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese are a few of many reasons why I\u2019d like and I need daddy to come home as soon as possible,\u201d the handwritten letter read.<\/p>\n
In addition to the 20 years he\u2019ll spend in prison, Bonilla has also been ordered to pay more than $251,000.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
More of those family separation policies. Haven’t they heard that that is inhumane? It’s a war crime to take a Hispanic man away from his young children we’ve been told.<\/p>\n
