Indiana Cop Allegedly Assaults White Woman With The Holy Spirit

Posted by | October 7, 2014 21:14 | Filed under: Contributors Opinion Politics Religion Tommy Christopher Top Stories


Contrary to what you might glean from recently-released video of Indiana police tasing an unarmed black man after dragging him out of a smashed car window, traffic stops sometimes go wrong for white people, too. As with other police interactions, though, the results are often quite different. Take Ellen Bogan, who is suing Indiana State Police Trooper Brian Hamilton over a traffic stop gone wrong. Bogan was pulled over for allegedly making an illegal pass (which she denies), and after giving her a written warning (for speeding), Hamilton went to work:

15. Nevertheless, Trooper Hamilton remained at Ms. Bogan’s car window and his car remained behind Ms. Bogan’s car. The Trooper’s car’s lights remained flashing.

16. Given that the Trooper remained at her window talking to her with his police care behind her car with its lights flashing, Ms. Bogan did not believe that she could leave and a reasonable person would not have believed that they could leave.

17. The Trooper then asked her if he could ask her a personal question. Ms. Bogan did not feel she could refuse and when she assented the Trooper asked if she was from the Richmond area.

18. When Ms. Bogan indicated that she was not the Trooper asked her if he could ask another personal question. Again, Ms. Bogan assented because she did not feel she could or should refuse.

19. The Trooper then asked her if she had a home church and then asked if she had accepted Jesus Christ as her savior.

20. Ms. Bogan said yes to both of these questions because she wanted to terminate the conversation and she believed this was the best way to do so. She did not feel at liberty to say no.

21. The Trooper then asked Ms. Bogan if he could ask her one more thing and asked if he could give her something.

22. Again, Ms. Bogan did not feel that she could disagree.

23. She therefore assented and the Trooper went this car and returned with the attached pamphlet (Exhibit 1) from the First Baptist Church in Cambridge City, Indiana, that notes, among other things, that one of the Church’s ministries is a radio broadcast from Trooper Dan Jones entitled “Policing for Jesus Ministries.” The pamphlet also outlines “God’s Plan of Salvation” that requires the reader to acknowledge that she is a sinner and to realize that “Salvation is a gift and is received by faith in Jesus Christ” and that “the Lord Jesus Christ paid the penalty for your sins.”

24. Ms. Bogan said thank you to the Trooper and the Trooper said “God Bless You,” and returned to his car.

The horror. On her Facebook page, Bogan called Hamilton a “dope,” and made another unfavorable comparison…READ MORE

    But I thought it was Muslims and Islam we needed to be concerned about!

      Nope, it’s the religious zealots we have here. Christian sharia law is deep in our life.

    Trooper Brian Hamilton didn’t Taze, beat, sexually assault or shoot Ms. Ellen Bogan..

    Perhaps she avoided the final question regarding the tithing to the police force.

    Next time the Mormons come to your door, check if they’re carrying guns.
    This isn’t just a government agent proselytizing, it’s a government agent with a gun, Tazer, Mace, and handcuffs proselytizing.
    A while ago we had the New Orleans police recruiting in churches;
    Montgomery has pastors accompany their police; and now this “Policing
    for Jesus.”
    To see where it is going, look at Syria where they have ISIS “Policing for Allah.”

    So is this the gospel of Trooper Hamilton, Chapter 1, Verses 1-24?
