Cop Mocked a Disabled Vet and Towed His Van 5 Minutes Later, Marines Blocked Every Exit.
At Phoenix VA Medical Center, 68-year-old Staff Sergeant Frank Morrison, who lost both legs to an IED in Iraq, parks his wheelchair-accessible van in a handicapped space. Officer Bradley Cain approaches, ignoring Frank’s Purple Heart license plate and handicapped placard, accusing him of “faking” his disability. When Cain calls a tow truck, Frank phones his former commander, Colonel Patterson. Within minutes, over fifty Marines converge on the VA parking lot, blocking all exits. Marine Corps lawyer Captain Williams discovers Cain is fraudulently collecting disability benefits while competing in CrossFit events. When Police Chief Torres arrives, Colonel Patterson reveals Frank’s decorated service record and Cain’s fraud. Torres immediately suspends Cain and apologizes to Frank. The incident leads to nationwide “Morrison Protocol” police training for veteran interactions and federal legislation protecting disabled veterans from harassment.
You can take the car, but you can’t take my honor. Keep that honor, wheelchair.
