Cop Speeds at 113 Miles to “Issue Ticket,” Rams Into 69-Yr-Old Woman and Kills Her

http://filmingcops.com/cop-speeds-at-113-miles-to-issue-ticket-rams-into-69-yr-old-woman-and-kills-her/

Officer Steven Homanko was charged this morning with homicide, after taking the life of an innocent woman while speeding in his police cruiser at over 110 miles per hour....

Police only get paychecks if they generate a sufficient amount of tickets and arrests per month. These are known as quotas, and are implicitly or explicitly a matter of standard operating procedure....

Officer Homanko evidently felt that it was so important to give the vehicle a ticket that he began speeding at an unbelievable 113 miles per hour to catch the motorist, according to reports.

While he doing so, he then struck Carola Sauers, an innocent 69-yr-old woman who was simply driving with her husband at the time. They never expected what was about to happen.


is wrong with these people!

"Police only get paychecks if they generate a sufficient amount of tickets and arrests per month. These are known as quotas, and are implicitly or explicitly a matter of standard operating procedure.... " is total nonsense.

Glad he's been charged.
