‘My dad’s the mayor!’: Leaked video shows Denver official’s son cursing at officer during stop
by Cleve R. Wootson Jr. May 8 at 4:26 PM

The video clip lasts just 20 seconds, but it’s long enough to anger anyone who believes public officials and their loved ones secretly suffer from a strong sense of entitlement.

Jordan Hancock, the 22-year-old son of Denver Mayor Michael B. Hancock, had been clocked going 65 mph in a 40 mph zone in Aurora, a suburb of Denver.

It’s unclear what preceded the heated exchange between the young man and the officer captured in the video, originally obtained by Denver ABC affiliate KMGH. But at some point, the 22-year-old unloads on the officer, spewing a stream of profanity and gay slurs and telling him his days as a police officer are coming to an end.

“My dad’s the mayor,” he says, followed by some curse words.

“Of Denver?” the officer responds. “Well, you’re in Aurora.”

Love it.

"Do you know who I am?"- never gets old.

Daddy sent an inappropriate text message to a female officer that used to be on his security detail.
Son mislead police about a gang shooting in the past. What an example.

As it is Denver, I guess there's no need to ask what Daddy's political affiliation may be.

Both father and son have faced scrutiny in the past.

As The Washington Post’s Kristine Phillips wrote in March, the mayor acknowledged that he sent “inappropriate” text messages to a police officer who had been a member of his security detail in 2012. “You look sexy in all that black!” he wrote to the woman.

The city paid the officer, Leslie Branch-Wise, $75,000 as part of a settlement.

The CITY paid?

Big City mayors are for the most part made from the same cloth, and the trickle down immoralities to their families are not surprising.

Waiting in a 10 person line at the commissary on base, a woman pushed past all of us and went immediately to the checkout counter. The cashier said, I'm sorry ma'am you're going to have to wait in line. The woman said, No. My husband is a Colonel. I don't have to wait in line. The cashier was confused and looked like she didn't know what to do.

They opened another checkout. We all moved over there and resumed on our merry way. But that rank by association thing is very common. And the relatives are much more brutal than the people who actually have the rank. If the Colonel himself had been there, I have not the slightest doubt that he would have got in line with the rest of us and would have waited his turn. Because an officer respects his troops. His wife however, has no clue about anything.

A mayor, usually, will respect his police officers. His son however, has no clue about anything.

He would if he was my son, and it would only take one time.
