r/NoStupidQuestions Jim Gordon asked: Lee wants a "Dancing Arab" for Christmas. What the hell is that? I'm tempted to think that she wants me to do a traditional arabic dance for her. Another part of me thinks it's some sort of product but I don't know what it is. Can you guys help me out? Barbara Kean: A Dyson Airwrap? Jim: HOLY SHIT THIS IS IT Barbara: But you can forget that again, it's way too expensive for you. Me, on the otherhand? Rich 💅 Harvey Bullock: @JimGordon Maybe you can still do that dance 🤣

In the early morning hours on January 22, 2017, a burglar broke into the home of Christopher Mark Thompkins, his ex-wife Brenda Richmond, and his 78-year-old mother. The burglar set off an alarm, which summoned the police. Thompkins, meanwhile, was worried about his mother, who sleeps downstairs. He took Richmond’s gun (for which she has a permit), and chased the burglar downstairs and out of the house while firing it. The police arrived, saw Thompkins inside the house armed and shooting, and shot him dead.

The investigation ultimately concluded with no charges against the two officers who killed Thompkins. Even Richmond doesn’t blame them: “They were trying to do their job. They didn’t know they were shooting Mark. … They saw somebody shooting, they shoot.” But Officer Robert Swartzwelder, president of the police union, wasn’t taking any chances; instead, he “deliberately tried to block investigators.” According to the grand jury, Swartzwelder:

“stopped investigators from gathering evidence” after the shooting;

“fought at every stage to ensure those tasked with overseeing the investigation would not be provided with all the facts and evidence necessary to determine whether the officers were justified in their actions”;

used “‘heavy-handed tactics,’ to dictate police procedure”; and

“acted with ‘deliberate malfeasance’ and ‘utter disregard’ for the policies and ethical standards of the Police Bureau.”
