When this came out (e.g. Now It’s McDonald’s: Cop Gets Cup Labeled ‘F***ing Pig’) I was skeptical, and I imagine many people were. First, I didn't know McDonald's labeled their cups, Starbuck's style. But mostly how dumb does an employee have to be to pull such a stunt? It's been in the news recently, and the result is always losing your job.
Well, I guess the answer is that the McDonald's employees are NOT that dumb.
So now a really dumb cop has lost his job and career. We're probably better off for it, but it's a sad tale.
A Kansas police chief who called out a local McDonald's -- after one of his officers claimed he was served a cup of coffee with a vulgar and insulting message attached -- said Monday the officer has resigned after fabricating the incident.
Herington Police Chief Brian Hornaday confirmed the unnamed officer made up the story about being given a coffee cup with "F-----g pig" written on it. The incident caused a stir on social media over the weekend and resulted in criticism of the fast-food giant.
"This was completely and solely fabricated by a Herington police officer who is no longer with our agency," Hornaday said during a Monday news conference. "Moving forward, the Herington Police Department will work tirelessly to regain to loss of trust with both McDonald's and with the citizens that we serve."
Hornaday also said the unnamed officer was 23 and had been with the department for just two months. He called the incident a "black-eye for law enforcement" and said no criminal charges were expected to be filed.
