North Carolina Cop Breaks Jaw & Eye Socket of Another Cop at Party

A Gaston County Sheriff’s Office detention officer was arrested in Lowell, NC early Friday morning after police said he broke the jaw of a deputy he works with at the Gaston County Jail.

Trevor Adams, 27, was booked into jail on a charge of felony assault causing serious bodily injury, Fox 46 News reports.

On July 5 around 1:45 a.m. a fight between Adams and Deputy Francisco Cortez Mendez broke out at a party on Lowell Road. The men were at a party that was attended by other law enforcement officers who tried to break up the fight.

Officers at the party saw Mendez go to the ground and Adams continue to punch him. Adams returned twice to punch Mendez after initially knocking him out.

911 was called and on duty responding officers found Mendez unconscious and bleeding from his nose and mouth. The assault left Mendez with a possibly fractured eye socket, a fractured jaw, and a split tongue. Adams registered a 0.18 on an alcohol breath test.

He has been suspended, according to Sheriff Alan Cloninger. Adams was hired by the Sheriff’s Office in September 2014.

Support our Mission

Help us build a database of bad cops

For almost 15 years, PINAC News has remained active despite continuous efforts by the government and Big Tech to shut us down by either arresting us for lawful activity or by restricting access to our readers under the pretense that we write about “social issues.”

Since we are forbidden from discussing social issues on social media, we have created forums on our site to allow us to fulfill our mission with as little restriction as possible. We welcome our readers to join our forums and support our mission by either donating, volunteering or both.

Our plan is to build a national database of bad cops obtained from public records maintained by local prosecutors. The goal is to teach our readers how to obtain these lists to ensure we cover every city, county and state in the country.

After all, the government has made it clear it will not police the police so the role falls upon us.

It will be our most ambitious project yet but it can only be done with your help.

But if we succeed, we will be able to keep innocent people out of prison.
