Monongalia County Sheriff’s Deputy Lance Kuretza was indicted by the Feds as a result of this never-before-seen bodycam footage showing him suddenly confronting and arresting an innocent man, who was sleeping in a hotel room. I tried to get the footage over two years ago. Since then, he was acquitted by a federal jury in his criminal prosecution. Now he’s back to work as a deputy. But should he have a badge in light of this footage, showing what really happened that night?

Some people become cops to make their jurisdictions safer. Some people become cops because their ego needs that power dynamic.
Cop is a vegetable
Where was the good cop?
Can this man sue him personally?
What is happening to America to allow such evil. This is insanity wow wtf
This cop belongs in prison.
From the President to the last man in US admin are N@z!s. Descendants of bounty hunters and cr!min@ls.
Lawsuit
Badged m-fr….😡👎🏻
This why i sleep with my secound ammendment under my pillow. Defened your rights now or u will loose them. Dont let the idiots tell you to do it in court. You clearly see that it dose not work any other way.
Prudent move to post / release the video following hate / threatening e/mail.
❤❤❤
Not guilty. What a fucking country
Roid rage
Why didn’t the victims press charges? Why did the hotel check them in if they weren’t welcome? What did no one get in trouble? What is the full story. Parts of the Justice system a tragedy, a farce ànd the judge should be held accountable as well as those who dismissed all charges. So much corruption in high places. My consolation is that karma may delay but it never fails.
Seizure warning ⚠️
This further solidifies my beliefs that the West Virginia police need put in check..all of them but my personal problem is with them. Can we normalize police facing reprocussions for their actions?
That Meat Head need some "Problem Solving" Himself.
People .. this is in WV .. it's a third world country .. no laws, no civility no culture.
A jury watched ALL of the evidence and found him not guilty? I'm ready to find him guilty after a 3 minute video.
I remember when Kuretza got his ass beat in a bar in Morgantown by a guy half his size when he was by himself while running his mouth. The bar owner banned him for life after he got caught lying that he didn't start it.
ACAB
Honest??? The guy looked and acted like he was on something… Alcohol, drugs, or something. When he woke up… He looked like he struck the deputy, he was struggling. What else to do? Pepper spray, even though handcuffed, in a tight confined space? Struggling,. He was putting the officers and himself in danger. Maybe not the best solution…but what would bd hhe best? A knee on the back of the neck, while he is on the floor, struggling?
The jury obviously saw and heard much more than this….
Just because they dismiss it, doesn't necessarily mean it wasn't a good case. They may do that to alleviate the caseload. It has happened to me, my case was dropped because they had so many more serious cases.
And he is not a police officer, he is a sheriff's deputy.
If you really are a lawyer… Pretty sloppy.
How do we get that psychopath fired?!
The gang of police… animals.
Cop is lucky he did that to a man, had it been a woman he would have been found guilty
Bull ship
You can tell his coworkers hate his guts
Those jurors should be ashamed of themselves! How in the hell was or even why was he found not guilty? Karma….
Racist, sadistic, psychopath
He needs to goooooooooooooooooooooo😮
Discounted bull crap happens here all the time in Morgantown state troopers here are really really effed up
Stove lights can invoke seizures, STUPID Cops!!!!!
47 years ago we had a person in our county unit who had "certain tendencies ". After a couple of "counseling sessions " he decided that a career in Law enforcement was not for him.
Take it to internal affairs
Jury acquitted him. We get the society we choose.
The social media post shows the violent tyrant to be swooped-up on way too much HGH & steroids. But in the BWC footage he’s about 70 pounds smaller and with a lot more hair. So, has he been juicing since his indictment in preparation for entering GenPop…?
The cops are as guilty and corrupt as the who beats that young man 😤
Anybody, who looks at this footage and thinks it's justifiable, has no business being in a jury.
Probly their connection.
That officer should be in prison!! He should not be allowed to work on the police force you cannot treat someone like that!!
🐽
Wow lay off the roids bud lol. Looking like Mighty Mouse and stuff 😂😂 if I get woke up like that I would be trying to swing too smh. This officer and everyone involved need JAIL time and never be able to go get a job as an officer in another state or county. He sounds like a pos..I got that solution smh ya in ur body
