The New York sheriff’s deputy who was arrested in November after he was caught on video slapping a man on the back of the head for refusing to allow his car to be searched pleaded guilty Tuesday. But as expected, former Saratoga County deputy Shawn Glans got off lightly, having to pay a fine, but avoiding probation and anger management classes, which is something he can use, judging by his behavior in the video posted below. After all, this is the man who after slapping Colin Fitch, turned to Fitch’s friend, who had recorded the incident, and told him, “I’ll rip your fucking head off and shit down your fucking neck.” Not that Glans was aware he was being recorded at the time. And not that he would have acted any differently, he later told a local news site. Glans will also have to abide by an order of protection, forbidding him from coming in contact with Fitch for a year. His attorney accused the men of “baiting” Glans, a common accusation for citizens standing up for their Constitutional rights. Glans was charged with harassment and official misconduct when he should have been charged with battery, but it was shocking that he was arrested and ordered to resign within two days of the incident.
