The image of Marcus Boone later circulated on the internet and ended up in the hands of a stranger who unknowingly showed it to his grieving mother.

      Whenever someone talks about the horrible things cops have to see and how hard their job is just remember the miserable fuck who took photos of a woman’s dying son and thought their pig friends would get a kick out of it.

      When they say it’s “just a few bad apples” they always completely miss the point.

      One bad apple can spoil the barrel.

    Absolutely disgusting. This is a crime comparable to revenge porn.
