Let's give him the benefit of a doubt and say that he really does have a spotless 20yr record and on that specific day/week, he was just going through a really tough time. Granted that considering the importance of his job, he should be taking time off. However, he is human after all and we all make human error. IF this was the case, does the guy still deserve to be fired?

For the record, I'm not necessarily defending the cop. Just playing devil's advocate and creating a scenario-based discussion.

In any case, if the guy does get fired over this, I would vote for him to get a customer service job at Fry's.
