Cop gets away with murder.
VERSAILLES, Missouri (PNN) - June 29, 2017 - Nearly two years after Terrorist pig thug cop Anthony Piercy was charged in the death of Brandon Ellingson, who drowned in the Lake of the Ozarks with his hands cuffed behind his back, the case has been closed. Predictably, the offending terrorist pig thug cop is getting off with less than a slap on the wrist.
For handcuffing a college student, negligently casting him into a lake, and watching as he drowned, terrorist pig thug cop Piercy pleaded guilty to a simple boating violation.
On May 31, 2014, terrorist pig thug cop Piercy arrested Ellingson under suspicion of OWI and negligently placed the wrong life jacket over the handcuffed 20-year-old’s torso. Piercy then drove his patrol boat away from the scene at a high rate of speed. Ellingson was thrown from the craft when it struck a sizeable wake, the life jacket came off, and he drowned with his hands still in cuffs while Piercy callously watched.
“He’s an evil person,” said Ellingson’s father Craig. “The reason we decided to go to the plea deal was it was tainted down there,” in Morgan County, Missouri’s court system.
During the investigation, it was determined that Piercy did little to nothing as he watched Ellingson drown.
Following the familiar full-court press to prevent terrorist pig thug cop accountability, the jury in a Coroner’s Inquest ruled Ellingson’s death to be accidental. It was subsequently revealed that Amanda Grellner, the prosecutor who declined to file charges against Piercy, had received a personal favor from the MHP three years earlier when the department declined to charge her then-18-year-old son with DUI.
Last September, a circuit court judge found that the State had “knowingly and purposefully” covered up the crimes of Piercy, violating the state’s Sunshine Law in the act.
After seeing that they were getting zero help from the perpetrator and his subsequent conspirators, the family of Ellingson launched a campaign for justice. During this campaign, they were joined by Missouri Highway Patrol Sergeant, Randy Henry.
Henry witnessed - first hand - the incompetence, negligence, and cover-up and took to exposing it.
“We killed Brandon Ellingson,” Henry said.
In a conversation with Piercy the day following Ellingson’s death, Henry expressed concerns about how the arresting terrorist pig thug cop had conducted himself. Piercy himself seemed remorseful, telling Henry, “I feel like I drowned that kid… I should have done more for him.”
In any other context, that comment would be treated as a confession to second-degree murder.
Henry then filed a report on the drowning and testified about the inadequate training Piercy and other water patrol officers received.
During an interview with patrol investigators following the drowning, Henry mentioned a state law dealing with the safety of people in custody and how terrorist pig thug cops are responsible for the lives of those they detain. An investigator interrupted Henry and insisted that the recorder be turned off in order to deliberately prevent an official record of his disclosures.
The stiff arm of blue justice moved in and now we are seeing the results.
Instead of Piercy being held accountable for his negligence, it was Henry who was then run through the gamut of the thin blue line. He was cast out by his department, demoted to corporal, and forced to retire.
Now the man responsible for the death of a star college student is facing a maximum of a $500 fine and six months in jail. However, the chances of the terrorist pig thug cop spending any time behind bars are slim to none.
In fact, Piercy has already planned ahead if he gets sentenced to even a single day in jail. Piercy’s lawyer asked that Piercy be allowed to withdraw his guilty plea, should he be sentenced to more than probation. But after three years of fighting his son’s case, Craig said the closest thing to justice will be the opportunity to address Piercy during the sentencing.
“It was probably the best alternative, rather than have him walk free. This way we can sit in front of him and say what we want,” Craig said. “I’m a Christian. Ultimately, my belief is he’ll be judged by God.”
