Keep Bailing

Mendez was once a Long Beach Police officer and now finds himself in jail. Orange County District Attorney’s office gave a statement according to the Orange County Register that the problem started in October when Mendez saw his ex-girlfriend and two other girls driving around at 3:30 in the morning. He pulled a gun on them, ordered them to pull over, fired shots in the air, yanked the ex-girlfriend out of the car, continued to fire shots in the air, and beat up on the ex-girlfriend. Meanwhile, the other girls ran for their life and called 911.

Mendez got 6 months in jail, 3 years probation and a 52 week treatment program. And, of course, now he’s lost his job.
