Boynton Beach Police officer arrested, charged with domestic violence

This article is about a police officer in Boynton Beach (Thomas Jones) who was arrested and charged with felony battery or domestic violence with strangulation, as well as battery. This is not the officer's first brush with the law. In October 2001, Jones was stopped by police after he injured a fellow law enforcement officer in a car crash. He was discovered to have a blood alcohol level over the legal limit, but he only recieved a three weeks suspension.

  2. Im not going to judge what the officer did. i am against a man putting his hands on a woman, but who am i to judge this officer... i was not there to see what happen...
    As far as him being a police officer, he is automatically held at a different standard...he should known better right? He does deserve punishment for what he did, but just remember that police officers are human too and a lot of the time people seem to forget that.
