As Clarice noted on this the previous post, this isn’t the first incident where Sergeant Karsnia’s name came up surrounding another questionable arrest. This blogger details his run in with the sergeant and his men after trying to ride his bicycle off airport property after arriving on a flight. Read it yourself. From his own discription he – the subject – sounds like an ass who just should have complied with the officer and walked his bike. Nevertheless, it’s the supervisors duty to insures a high profile venue avoids these incidents as much as possible and as such a little “tact” has to be used.

Again, I’m former LE, and I hate to bash fellow officers, but if this account is accurate it shows that at the very least Karsnia’s supervisors should open an internal investigation into his office and how they conduct business. Apparently at the least look at how he exercises that all important “arrest discretion”, and what seems to be a complete ignorance basic arrest procedures.
