​@Cops&Cons obtained lapel footage from the Rio Rancho Police Department in New Mexico. It shows the arrest of Albuquerque Police Officer Jeffrey Wharton prior to his shift beginning. He was taken into custody by detectives of the Rio Rancho Police Department. The on duty arrest was due to a warrant for his arrest from the Rio Rancho PD.
According to the criminal complaint, Wharton beat his girlfriend so badly, she had several gashes on her head and face. Police say her injuries were so severe, she had to be taken to the hospital where she was diagnosed with a brain bleed. Some of the domestic incident was captured on the couples “RING” doorbell system.
When Officer Wharton arrived for his shift at an area substation Rio Rancho Police officers were waiting for him armed with a felony warrant. At one point you’ll see they removed his duty belt and searched him. After the search they are seen on lapel video cutting off his fully marked uniform shirt. Wharton was lead out of the substation to a waiting cruiser.
He was booked into the Sandoval County Detention Center on charges of Kidnapping (First Degree) (NO Intent to Commit Sex Offense), Aggravated Battery (great bodily harm) (household member), Aggravated Battery Against a Household Member (Strangulation or Suffocation), Aggravated Battery (great bodily harm) (household member), Tampering with Evidence (Highest Crime a Capital, First or Second Degree and Negligent Use of a Deadly Weapon (Unsafe Handling).
Wharton resigned from APD shortly after this arrest. APD says Wharton had been with the department since November 2010. He was a senior officer with the department. His trial is pending.

I guess the cops don't believe in innocent until proven guilty.
Probably the happiest day of his life
What did he do?
What are those deer heads doing in the police station?
Love the female officers!
WHY not just order him to remove his uniform, instead of cutting it off him, basically destroying and disrespecting the uniform and what it stands for, .
they only cut it off was because they didn't want anyone to see them attrsting another cop.
what bro ham did
I’m late to yours case. What did he do?
Homeboys last time he’s ever gonna get a rub down by a woman 👩 so cherish this moment @1:32 , the awkward moment of them cutting the clothes I had second hand embarrassment
over the top
Stabler (wannabe) is going to enjoy prison; I can tell. 😉😂
Why no handcuffs? He’s being arrested for DV not a traffic violation.
I wonder what stupid thing he done?? Did they lose the cuff keys?? How stupid is cutting off his shirt??
Symbolic to cut off his uniform, I suppose. He could have just taken off his shirt.
They cut his shirt off as the ultimate “ f*ck u scumbag , ur not a cop anymore “ and u could feel it
I absolutely LOVED the fact they had WOMEN strip him down of his weapons and duty belt, pat him down, read him his charges and escort his punk azz to jail! PERFECT because he hated every second of it!!
No that's ok don't take it off we got you.
Yeah this seems really unprofessional to me. I think none of them like this guy so they were taking way too much pleasure in doing all of this. They even used two separate handcuff keys and treated them like trophies to lock the guys Cuffs with.
I haven’t got to the point of what this dude did yet but it better be something fucking amazing the way these cops are just GOOOING all over their self to be able to do this to him the one cop actually used two handcuff keys to lock the handcuffs with and then handed those keys to two separate officers like they were trophies. WTF
I’ve heard cops beat their wives ….damn he almost killed her…
Cops are gey.
Serve and protect. Not sure why this is so hard for some to understand.
Why some of these police officers are like that, always humiliating the same people, for me it's not ethical and I really hate this type of action, but you can't expect much from these people.
They could have taken the shirt off him before he was cuffed; but a nice piece of drama. I suppose all the local tv guys used this as the headline.
I wish they’d do the same to a lesbian that works in Miami Springs pdddddâ¤â¤â¤her corrupted assâ¤â¤â¤
Take note idiots, even the cop 👮â€â™‚ï¸ himself knew better than to "talk to them to tell his side of the story. " even he knows, don't say sh** and get a lawyer. I love how EVERYTIME people think they can talk their way out of it. Dopes
I'd be willing to bet ANY amount of money that there several more skunks standing in that very same room with this skunk that deserves to be done the exact same way!!! He's not the only one there that deserves what's going on right now. There's more lots more!!!
Too bad those scissors don't slip!!
What really angers me is the fact that he was allowed to resign from the department therefore able to keep his bloody retirement after this! Reward much?!?
Before placing him in his cell, they should yell ''Fresh wifebeater coming through!!''
Damn.. I now know what secondhand embarrasment feels like.. I read the description, he is a terrible person.
