[QUOTE="_CY_, post: 2734843, member: 7629"] look at the horse hockey being printed on national news now ... looks like Sheriff Stanley Glantz is now in the media's not so flattering spot light ... ============= Tulsa’s Killer Cop Was Sheriff’s Sugar Daddy [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/cdn.thedailybeast.com_content_dailybeast_articles_2015_04_14_t6e6281f93a742dc55d6d821487f497f7.jpg[/IMG] The volunteer cop charged with fatally shooting an unarmed man plied the sheriff’s department with trips and gear, former officers say. The Tulsa deputy charged with manslaughter for fatally shooting an unarmed black man was the sheriff’s sugar daddy-treating him to exotic cruises and fishing trips-former officers with the sheriff’s department told The Daily Beast. Volunteer cop Robert Bates, 73, made national headlines after authorities released a video of the senior officer mistaking his gun for a Taser and killing Eric Harris, 44, during a bungled sting operation. “Oh, I shot him. I’m sorry,” Bates can be heard on the police cameras after yelling, “Taser!” Hours before the Tulsa County district attorney charged Bates with second-degree manslaughter on Monday, Sheriff Stanley Glanz defended the deputy-who is his longtime friend and served as his insurance agent and onetime election campaign chair. "He made an error," Glanz told the Tulsa World. "How many errors are made in an operating room every week?" Glanz also showed a Tulsa World reporter cellphone photos of him fishing with Bates, a millionaire insurance executive. "Bob and I both love to fish," he said. "Is it wrong to have a friend?" Still, former officers with the sheriff’s department told The Daily Beast that Bates was a “pay to play” policeman. The businessman donated thousands of dollars worth of vehicles and equipment to the force. “Bob Bates came on board because he had all this money,” one former reserve deputy said, adding that the sheriff and other higher-ups would “go on these cruises in the Bahamas and in Mexico all the time.” “[Bates] foots the bill,” the deputy added. “The sheriff just gave him free rein because he was treating him right. He bought his way into this position.” [url]http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/04/14/tulsa-shooter-was-sheriff-s-sugar-daddy.html[/url] [/QUOTE]
