![]() | Cop Who Beat Black Transexual Had Many Complaints The complaints against McRae date back to July of 2005. Then, McRae said he found drugs on a man riding his bicycle on Elvis Presley and Dolan where McRae. But the suspect claimed McRae threatened to donate his bicycle to charity and never tagged it to go into evidence. Internal Affairs found the allegation of improper "Inventory and Processing Recovered Property"..."Unfounded." The next incident happened four months later, when a mentally challenged man claimed McRae took him behind a liquor store on Cazassa, removed his handcuffs, and beat him up. McRae claimed the man came out of his cuffs and officers had to fight him back into the cuffs. The complaint of "Excessive Force" was "Not Sustained." In the third incident, which took place a month later on East Brooks, McRae was accused of calling a man a "Black N*****" and they fought. When the suspect's sister showed up, she claims she began taking video from her phone and was also arrested. McRae got two "Personal Conduct" complaints and two "Excessive Force/Abuse" complaints, all "Not Sustained." In June, 2006, McRae was accused of stealing cash from a drug suspect's car outside Jack Pirtle's Chicken on Poplar. That complaint of Inventory and Processing Recovered Property was also "Not Sustained." The fifth complaint happened on Poplar and North Angelus, where a woman claimed McRae stopped her in her car for violating registration, and told her she shouldn't be in that part of the community. The woman claimed he made references to the Aryan Nation, and said she shouldn't be mixing races. The "Personal Conduct" complaint was "Not Sustained." Once again, McRae was never formally disciplined for any of those complaints, so they did not show up on his public record, only his personnel file. McRae became a commissioned police officer four years ago, and his personnel record also showed many excellent reviews. James Swain, a second officer who was seen on the tape holding Johnson down, was a probationary officer at the time and was immediately fired following the incident. "He used the force that he did. He felt it was necessary," Memphis Police Association president J.D. Sewell said. Action News 5 cameras caught Memphis Police Association president J-D Sewell walking with Bridges McRae into 201 Poplar minutes before his administrative hearing. He actually used the video and used a narration in it explaining point by point. Sewell said McRae's attorney told him to keep quiet because of possible criminal charges. Sewell said in the video McRae is trying to get Johnson to go through the booking process but Sewell said Johnson, who had a history of felonies under the name Duannel Johnson, refused. "The officer was clearly trying to get Mr. Johnson out of the chair to get him fingerprinted. And the reaction from Mr. Johnson caused the action of Mr. Johnson," Sewell said. Sewell said there were no slurs used whatsoever. "All he kept calling him was Duane. Didn't call him Duanna. Called him Duane and didn't call him any other derogatory names as Mr. Johnson has refered to," Sewell said. Bridges McRae is expected to appeal his firing to the civil service board. No word yet on any criminal charges in this case. |

![]() | Racist White Cop Who Beat Black Transexual, Is Fired! June 25, 2008: A Memphis Police Department spokesperson said late Wednesday afternoon that Officer Bridges McRae has been terminated from his employment with the department. McRae was the officer at the center of controversy after he was caught on tape beating a trangendered prostitution suspect in the prisoner intake area at 201 Poplar. The incident has received national attention and sparked outrage from many groups. In the video, recorded by a surveillance camera last February, McRae was seen beating Duanna Johnson, a transgendered woman in custody on suspicion of prostitution. Johnson was born a man but lives as a woman. She claims McRae called her derogatory names before assaulting her. McRae also filed an assault charge against Johnson, saying she punched him several times. Wednesday, Action News 5 examined McRae's personnel file. Though he was never officially cited for any misconduct, McRae's personnel file contains a list of complaints, including racial slurs and a reference to the Aryan Nation. The complaints against McRae date back to July of 2005. Then, McRae said he found drugs on a man riding his bicycle on Elvis Presley and Dolan where McRae. But the suspect claimed McRae threatened to donate his bicycle to charity and never tagged it to go into evidence.

McRae claimed the man came out of his cuffs and officers had to fight him back into the cuffs. The complaint of "Excessive Force" was "Not Sustained." In the third incident, which took place a month later on East Brooks, McRae was accused of calling a man a "Black NIGGER" and they fought. When the suspect's sister showed up, she claims she began taking video from her phone and was also arrested.

![]() | Cool Rubik's Cube Tricks Removed! This is a video of me explaining why I removed my Cool Rubik's Cube Tricks video. Here's the "script" I wrote: Hey everybody, Josh here. I just wanted to inform everybody of my removal of my Cool Rubik's Cube Tricks video because of the negative comments it was generating. For all of you that read some of the heinous comments or left some of them, I want to ask you a question: When did you decide that such personal conduct was okay? Maybe your repulsive behavior is a product of a broken home or insecurity from the stresses of everyday life, but no matter the case, it is in no way acceptable or necessary. While I do understand what a huge mistake it was to make a video where I wasn't wearing a shirt, it still hurts to see people jump on that as an opportunity to push others down to boost themselves up. I'm reminded of a verse in the Bible, Hebrews 10:24-25 that tells us we should encourage each other with acts of love and good works (read verse). Another thing I noticed while looking at comments left on my videos is the horribly offensive and abrasive language people use. When did calling someone a skinny white faggot become considered the norm? The Bible says in Ephesians 4:29 this: (read verse). So instead of getting nowhere, insulting people, we should encourage each other, giving tips on how to improve our videos. Now, even though I've said all this, I am in no way against criticism. I'm all for it, it helps people do things better, but constructive criticism is so much better than just putting people down. Thanks |
