paperpushing cop
To serve and protect and exorcise
Paper-pushing NYPD Lt. Dominic Maglione wants his gun and shield back and has sued, claiming that his mental health is fine despite incidents a couple of years ago in which he was praying for 10 hours straight and once saw a demon in the stationhouse. (Also, the "10 hours straight" meant that he peed on himself because he couldn't tear himself away to go to the john.) Associated Press via Seattle Post-Intelligencer

I agree, anyone who hallucinates should still be allowed to be a cop. I can see no possible negative repercussions to this.

If you believe in angles and The Good Book then you've got to believe in demons! Can't have one without the other.
As far as wasting 10hrs of on duty time and pissing on the floor... kick him out!

You've over-obtused me. What are you referring to?

The 22-year police veteran says that because of his allegedly "excessive" religious beliefs, police officials have "wrongfully and illegally" confiscated his gun and badge and compromised his ability to do his job.
Dude, if your pissing your pants because you won't stop praying than you do have "excessive" religious beliefs. I don't remember reading about how Jesus pissed himself while praying in the garden before being arrested.

I once had a CO that would pause for minutes at a time whenever there was a decision to be made. Head bowed, eyes closed, muttering to himself. Just glad it was during peace time.
"Captain, they're over running our position"
"Okay, just a sec"

Have him get a note from god stating his current mental state.
If he shows up with a note from god, taser his ass and haul him off in the padded paddy wagon.

But he'd be fantastic in stakeouts... he'd never have to go use the nearby bushes. And we know he can stay awake for at least ten hours without a break. Where's the downside?

See, if I'm going to be pissing my pants while praying, my prayers better work. I'm pretty sure if his prayers had worked he wouldn't be where he is today.

I think I was once ... no wait, that was just my ex-husband.
