The question is, what has happened in the LAPD from this exact event occurring again? This amount of negligence and selfishness is absolutely still happening.
Hell, the fact that it took SIX YEARS to get this footage is damming all by itself. I want to be amused by the childish nature of this all, but goddamnit does the whole situation make me angry.
At the end of the article it says they were fired.
I find it doubly hilarious because of the journalist’s years-long quest to obtain the footage
6 years ago? Was togetic’s catch rate still bugged them? It was practically uncatchable at launch (only crit catches worked)
Asking the important questions.
I don’t think it was bugged for that long, something like a couple weeks
this should be posted in nottheonion if it isn’t already
Should be posted in GuessIfOnionOrReal
The absolute state of this country…
Murder is acceptable, but ignoring a robbery and driving recklessly to catch a Pokémon is what really gets cops fired.
On camera. It’s not the driving or pokemon catching, it’s the embarrassment and extra work they’ve caused their managers.
Murder is acceptable, ruining the Chief’s good mood is not.
Internal Affairs investigation report, which was called “Dishonesty.pdf.”
Also, lol at this detail from the article.
But what star level was it?
Asking the real questions
They don’t have to catch them all.
A high level!!
"All units report in, we’ve got a level 60 Galarian Zapdos raid at the corner of 10th and 8th, requesting immediate backup.
Be advised, target is Shiny"
At least tell us if it was a Shiny. Come on man…don’t skimp on the details of this Togetic.
Shiny Togetic wasn’t available in the game at the time. (I had to look it up to be sure.)
Plus when someone gets a shiny, they aren’t quiet about it.

Gotta catch ‘em all (thieves)
Cops: I sleep
Gotta catch ‘em all (pokemans)
Cops: real shit
Pokemon can’t kick you in the nuts. I guess Nintendo removed it from the American version. /jk

To be fair almost everyone used to play Pokemon go on the job.
