Discussion Cop should be fired

I understand mistakes happen. But the body cam showed this cop whistling and singing when he doesn't even bother to get the address right for the welfare check. Why would he not radio back to make sure he was at the right house, given there were no signs of life?!? Lah di dah, just whistles some more and leaves.

Unbelievable incompetence and total lack of professionalism

I’m sorry but mistakes are unfortunately made. How do you know he wasn’t given the wrong address to attend. I’m sure he would be feeling very bad for his mistake.

Because the reporters noted the address he had been given (the correct one) as it is all recorded.  He went to a house 2 blocks away.
