An L.A. County sheriff’s deputy attempted to cover up the suspected DUI crash of a fellow deputy by pulling the allegedly drunken man from the patrol vehicle he’d wrecked and depositing him in another car to be driven away, prosecutors say.

Deputy Gregory Davis was charged with felony conspiracy to obstruct justice, a misdemeanor count of giving false information to police and three misdemeanor counts of obstructing an investigation in connection with the incident, according to a news release from Los Angeles County Dist. Atty. George Gascón.

    If I understand how it works in the USA, the officer will just move to the next county to continue his carrer, right?

      Yes and the cop covering up will be found that he was working within police policies and did nothing wrong.
