In Krebs, Oklahoma, ex-officer Ryan Hutchison was busted after using the racist 'N' word to describe the person he arrested. 

Officer Hutchison however, hadn't a clue that his own own car microphone recorded every word that he spoke. Reportedly, the public servant along with his partner pulled over a group of young black adolescents in a rental car, as Hutchison was recorded saying “This smells funny. F--king nig---s in a rental car and ain’t none of them on the rental agreement. I’ll call the f--king rental company and make them all walk. If you ain’t on the rental agreement you ain’t supposed to drive the car. Got a damn Obama sticker on the back window."  

Why did it take six months for this story to break? The image above clearly shows the date of 9-10-2008. Why are we just now hearing about this? 

When the news story broke about the arrest, and the Krebs Police Department discovered it -- officer Ryan Hutchison, was forced to resign and all federal indictments against him were dismissed. Allegedly, this isn't the first racial profile investigation into the Krebs Police Department. 

Why were all charges dropped against Mr. Hutchison? Is it because he lost his job? With behavior like his, he definitely shouldn't be in any authoritative position where customer service is priority. And he spoke his insulting remarks so calmly in front of his partner, as if it were normal to speak in that manner.

In other news: Yesterday in Harrison, New York, two police officers were suspended over writing racist remarks on their Face Book pages! The remarks were along the lines of having watermelon and fast food chain restaurant KFC, built outside of The White House. Investigations into this matter are currently underway and any discoveries will of course determine the fate of these police officers. I'm sure the outcome will be interesting.
