Nation's Largest Police Union Likely To Endorse Convicted Criminal Who Released Cop Killer

Nation's Largest Police Union Likely To Endorse Convicted Criminal Who Released Cop Killer

HuffPost
Friday, September 6, 2024 3:37 PM GMT

The Fraternal Order of Police is hosting Trump, who also praises and has promised to pardon his followers who assaulted police at the U.S. Capitol.

The nation’s largest police union appears to be on the cusp of endorsing for president convicted felon Donald Trump, who released from prison a cop killer subsequently convicted of a strangulation attack on his wife, and who salutes, praises and has promised to pardon domestic terrorists convicted of assaulting police officers at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

The Fraternal Order of Police is hosting the coup-attempting former president at its board meeting Friday in North Carolina, where an endorsement appears likely. The Democratic nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris, a former prosecutor and state attorney general of California, was not invited to the gathering.

“We are eager to see President Trump again after meeting with him at Mar-A-Lago earlier this year,” FOP President Patrick Yoes said in a recent statement.

Neither Yoes nor any of the members of its executive board responded to HuffPost queries about its expected endorsement of Trump, whose lies that the 2020 election was stolen from him led to 140 police officer injuries and five officer deaths from the Capitol assault that Trump incited in a last-gasp attempt to hang on to power.

In his final days in office, Trump commuted the life sentence of drug dealer Jamie Davidson, who was convicted of murder for his involvement in the shooting death of a New York state police officer in 1990. Following his release, Davidson was arrested in Orlando, Florida, and charged with battery by strangulation and domestic violence. A jury convicted him of a lesser battery charge in July, and he is now back behind bars.
