COLUMBIA, SC (WIS) - An off-duty Richland County sheriff's deputy is in hot water after allegedly assaulting a woman, handcuffing her and slamming her head into a table at a Columbia restaurant on Monday.

Columbia police arrested 49-year-old Deputy Paul Allen Derrick at Buffalo Wild Wings on Devine Street and charged him with assault.

The incident happened just after 11 p.m.

According to a Columbia Police Department incident report, Derrick approached a female soldier from Fort Jackson who appeared to be upset. The report states the 23-year-old showed no interest in Derrick and the two started arguing.

Police say Derrick, who was not in uniform and was drinking alcohol, left the restaurant and returned with handcuffs he retrieved from his vehicle.

Several people in the business recorded the incident on their cell phones as Derrick, according to the report, tried to handcuff the female soldier. Derrick overpowered the woman, handcuffed her, pulled her to her feet, and slammed her head into a metal table, the report states.

A police officer who reviewed cell phone video of the incident reports hearing Derrick say, "This is how Marines deal with soldiers," while slamming the woman into the table.

The off-duty deputy held the soldier down until Columbia police arrived, according to the report.

Derrick told police that he had placed the woman under arrest.

A news release from the Richland County Sheriff's Department says Derrick is a sworn law enforcement officer with the ability and authority to make arrests, "however, violations of proper procedures may have occurred and if so, appropriate action will be taken."

However, Sheriff Leon Lott says the CPD made a mistake in arresting Derrick.

Lott says columbia police believed Derrick did not have the authority to make an arrest. He says Derrick does have that authority.

The sheriff also disputes a suggestion in the CPD incident report that Derrick was making an advance on the woman but had been rejected. He says his deputy was trying to calm the soldier.

Police confiscated a loaded gun Derrick was carrying at the time of the incident, and his identification, badge, and bar receipt.

The Richland County Sheriff's Department says Derrick was cooperative while being arrested by Columbia police.

Derrick is retired from the Columbia Fire Department and has worked for the Sheriff's Department for 14 years.

Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott, Columbia Interim Police Chief Ruben Santiago, and the Solicitor's Office plan to meet about the incident early next week.

Derrick is on unpaid suspension during the investigation.

So apparently drunk fethhead cops have the power to make arrests and do whatever the hell they want in South Carolina, be interesting to see how this shakes out in court.

It is worth thinking about the following. If you put hand cuffs on a woman and slammed her into a table, while drunk, and you had a loaded gun in your car, where would you be on an express trip to? If your answer is "A brief stop at a court room for a wide and interesting variety of felony charges followed by prison" you are correct!

This is actually how I met my wife - I asked for her number at a bar, she turned me down, so I assaulted her, arrested her, and the next morning, when I sobered up, I bailed her out and we had a good laugh together. You know, the stereotypical first date.

If she is still wearing the handcuffs I don't think that you are legally married and I think that you may be wanted by the authorities.

Ouze is probably the one in handcuffs, now.

"This is how Marines deal with soldiers"
Im baffled by this line TBH. Do Marines regulary slam heads into bars to get them to comply? Was he once a marine?
This just stinks of abuse of power

I'm assuming the cop is an ex-marine and still carries the animosity for people in the army. It might only surface when he's drunk but that's no excuse.

The Army left a real foul taste with me after my first deployment. I was stationed at the base where ground troops transited in and out of Afghanistan, and on the way out the Soldiers would go out of their way to screw with us, because they were "angry" about our living conditions. To the point of crapping on the floors of our bathrooms, cornering isolated Airmen on shuttle busses and trying to provoke fights, etc... Really left a bad first impression of working with the Army. I imagine the Marines and Army have it even worse with each other, both being ground fighting forces.

**hotsauceman1**

Damn, I never knew the military had so much animosity between eachother.

**Bromsy**

Interservice rivalry can be a bastard. And if he's 49 and he was in while he was young, that's back when brawls were a pretty common way of expressing that rivalry.

**djones520**

To be fair, it's not like it's open warfare between the branches. Since then I've had nothing but positive experiences working with the Army, and I've even spent much of my career trying to get stationed on Army bases (Army doesn't have weather forecasters, so we provide it for them). It's just when that rivalry comes up, it can get nasty at times.

**hotsauceman1**

I remember My friend telling me of the rivalry, but he iad he never got past the point of stealing tools from other brances, like wrenches and torches. He siad it go so bad they stationed new guys to guard the tool boxes.

**Relapse**

Somebody has to post this clip since it fits the situation perfectly:

But that's largely a byproduct of everyone knowing the Navy would win.

For the sake of nicety, I won't laugh to hard.

I've had my fair share of fights with soldiers and squids. I'd say I'd fought airmen... but that's like punching a middle schooler. However, that's all in good fun. Like actual siblings beating the gak outta each other for fun is acceptable, then immediately closing ranks to obliterate outsiders.

This type of BS? Not okay. I don't give a damn who you are, what service you were in, and when that was.

**marv335**

We have severe inter service rivalry in the uk forces.
(Swings lamp and pulls up sandbag)
I remember an incident when I was based in Northern Ireland during the troubles.
I was working on a helicopter squadron at the time, and a group of soldiers beat up one of my friends.
The commander of the squadron at the time got the commander of the soldiers into his office and informed him that he would produce the culprits within the hour, or the next time his troops were waiting for an extraction from somewhere, the helicopter would "break down" and they'd have to walk.

That's one reason we bring our own helos, no counting on the chairfarce for a ride

**KalashnikovMarine**

Not even a good airline.

,, dating sure is different in the USA.

That cop shouldn't be in charge of running his own bath water, never mind enforcing the law

I clubbed my wife over the head, and drug her home by the hair. It's a little taboo now, but this story makes me feel like its still ok.

**reds8n**

No offence fella, but 2 falls out of 3 my money's on your missus

**KingCracker**

Hey I said I used a club. That woman is a tough broad

**Grey Templar**

So that's what they mean when they say they're going out Clubbin

**Jihadin**

Damn DJ. I want to apologize for the actions of those A$$ Hats that tried to provoke a fight with your Airmen.

I've dealt with Air Force Red Horse units and on convoys when we do have Airmen with us I feel secure enough to let them man the CROWE system. If at any times we dismount during the convoy they are very well briefed to "Battle Buddy" up with one of mine.

Same as the Sea Bee's of the Navy. Of course they are our go to unit to have projects that needs to be done and not involve the bidding process with NATO authorize contractors. Real Time Training Exercise and we "assign" whatever equipment is needed to make their training exercise realistc as possible. Same policy on convoy's with the Air Force.

USMC was more scratch my back I scratch your back. Their ALOC and GLOC are suppose to stick with "pure" USMC by whatever means.

I try to avoid dealing with the France and majority of time I send another NCO or con my LT to go. The France Foreign Legion is different. I deal with those guys any time

I think you missed the part were she turned down the drunk.

Where were the bystanders not dealing with this guy?
Where were her armies to beat this sob to death?

If it helps at Homecoming dance GC just walked up to the boyz, tazed them in the neck, and danced with them. It cuts down on the small talk.

**KingCracker**

So she teaches them the electric shuffle

**Frazzled**

Exactly! Not to mention the electric slide.

I really hope this crap bag's cop buddies don't bury this.

Too bad the trooper was either not with a group of fellow troopers or was with the wrong fellow troopers. I know the groups I hung out with would have stopped this type of thing from happening, or at least shared a cell with each other.

I would have had a hell of a counseling session with any of my troops that allowed this to happen to a fellow trooper the following morning.

As for inter-service rivalry, it exists, but generally is friendly enough. Heck, there is even intra-service rivalry that can be interesting (as in I have gotten and given a couple lumps during some friendly rivalry sessions). Pretty hard to tell a bunch of youngins that they should be aggressive and are the best and not have them actually be aggressive when showing they are the best.
