The mayor of Denver’s son cursed at, berated and threatened an officer’s job who had pulled him over for speeding, and it was all caught on camera.
Denver Mayor Michael Hancock’s son Jordan, was pulled over on March 23 for driving 65mph in a 40 zone.
Instead of cooperating with the officer issuing the ticket, in the Aurora police district- not Denver’s- the 22-year-old is cursing at him saying: ‘My dad’s the mayor, you f****ing f****t.’
