NC Cops Investigated for Sharing Video Game About Shooting ‘Wetbacks’ and ‘Breeders’ (Video)
by Sky Palma
In yet another story about the questionable conduct of police officers, North Carolina deputies are in hot water after sharing a video game where the object of play is to kill pregnant immigrants and "wetbacks."
The Associated Press
is reporting that even some deputies in leadership roles were involved
in the scandal. U.S. Department of Justice has released documents
revealing that the video game was disseminated by email throughout the
department in Alamance County.
“Captain
Mario Wiley emailed several other ACSO employees a link to a game
premised on shooting stereotypical Mexican figures, including pregnant
women and children, as they attempt to cross the U.S. border,” the
document says. “Blood splatters on the screen as the figures are shot,
and the final screen of the game shows how many ‘wetbacks’ one has
killed.”
The emails sharing the video game were also laden with racist jokes, according to the Justice Department.
According
the documents, “Sergeant Darryl Myers and Lieutenant Wesley Anderson
each forwarded an email joking that when Davey Crockett saw ‘hordes of
Mexicans’ approaching the Alamo, he asked ‘are we having landscaping
done today?’”
“Makes you feel better anyway, I did my part today, I kept several from coming over!!!” one deputy allegedly wrote.
In
a statement, the Justice Department slammed the Alamance County said
that the incident shows “a total lack of discipline for expressing
anti-Latino sentiment.”
