The photo session that the police officers in charge of capturing the fugitive Danelo Cavalcante in Pennsylvania, on Wednesday morning after 14 days of investigation, caused impressions citing the issue of ethics.
However, Lieutenant Colonel George Bivens, in charge of the operation, downplayed it and even highlighted that “the Pennsylvania State Police and Border Patrol officers involved were proud of their work and took photos. Thank you all for your work.”
After the capture, Cavalcante looked distraught and even bloody, but it was all because the Border Patrol K-9 dog that kept him still while the uniformed officers arrived bit him partially on the face. The man was treated by medical personnel at the scene.
Manuel Ortega, security expert, told TELEMUNDO 62 that this type of celebratory action is seen much more in Latin America than in the United States.
“It looks bad, but we typically see it in Latin American countries frequently. “They catch the police wearing balaclavas or masks and they take photos with what they seize and who they arrest,” said Ortega, explaining that “we don’t know why they did it in this case, but these guys spent 14 days in a very rural and difficult area.” of driving facing even the storm of time.”
The photos were to celebrate the achievement and the time spent, trophy type, with a human being who was evading justice after climbing a prison wall in Chester County, Pennsylvania.
