This sheriff's deputy who murdered Casey Goodson is a real piece of work. [View all]

How has he been allowed to work in law enforcement at all with these beliefs? Why has he not been instantly terminated?

He claims to be a Baptist minister and that his faith allows him to use force as a cop.

From the Columbus Dispatch

“Every now and then you have to actually use force,” Meade said in the video, called “Connecting with the Community."

“We don’t go around looking for it because we don’t have to," he said. "Plenty of people out there will give you that opportunity ..."

He says that people say Jesus said to turn the other cheek, but he responds by telling them to read the Bible. He said Jesus isn't talking about physically getting slapped in the side of the face.

"There is release in our job that, righteously, we can actually have a use of force," Meade said.

“I hunt people," he said, garnering laughter. "It’s a great job, I love it."
