CAMDEN, S.C. – A South Carolina police officer is accused of watching pornography and performing a sex act on himself in his patrol car while on duty. WIS reported that officer Marshall Lee Hardin II, 41, has been charged with misconduct in office connection to the incident last week. The Camden police officer is accused of watching porn on his cell phone inside his patrol car and performing a sex act on himself in the car and in a nearby public restroom.

I have a very important question, did Officer Hardin start watching porn with the intent or jerking off or did he get a random boner then decide to employ the use of porn in order to get rid of it? Huge difference. If it was the former, then yeah, charge the guy. Can’t have cops driving around, watching porn, and ignoring crime. But if that porn was just the means to an end? Then he should be commended for his commitment to protecting and serving. Boners happen, they’re part of life and you have to deal with them. Sometimes you wake up with one in the morning and need to get rid of it in order to start your day, other times you get one while driving and have to take care of the problem so you can focus on the task at hand. A boner is like a crying baby, it takes priority and has to be handled before you can do anything else. Marshall Lee Hardin did just that. Not sure why he’s being punished over it.

Also, who caught him? Never look at a police car. Eyes forward, that’s how you don’t get a ticket. Every cop car that’s ever pulled up next to me could’ve been filled with the Village People blasting each other with night sticks and I’d have no idea. Don’t look, don’t get pulled over. That’s how the law works.
