Teen pleads not guilty to impersonating officer

CHICAGO – A 14-year-old boy accused of impersonating a police officer and going on patrol has pleaded not guilty.

The teenager appeared in a juvenile courtroom on Monday with his hands cuffed behind his back. A judge ordered that he be held at the juvenile center because he could pose a danger to himself.

On Saturday the teen, wearing an officer's uniform, walked into a police station and was assigned to go on patrol. He partnered with another officer for about five hours before the ruse was discovered.

Police say the boy did not have a gun, never issued any tickets and didn't drive the squad car.

I think it is fair to say that borderline retarded cops should be outlawed themselves. Imagine, not only did a 14 year old boy parade into a police station, he was put to work and even went on patrol. And we give police officers "qualified immunity"?????

There must be some truth in that old Forrest Gum sauing, "stupid is as stupid does".
