Florida Cop Criticized by Official at Ceremony: ‘You’re a Bad Police Officer’

An awards ceremony for several sheriff’s deputies turned into a complete embarrassment for one of them, as an official publicly shamed the officer. Deputy John Gallardo received a Deputy of the Month award at the Tamarac City Commission in Florida. But shortly after photos were taken, City Commissioner Mike Gelin called Gallardo to the front of the room and confronted him about a 2015 incident. “You don’t deserve to be here,” Gelin told Gallardo.
