Deputy Pilato urinated in the parking lot, attempted to enter parked cars (demonstrating the intent to drive drunk) and shouted obscenities at an off-duty sheriff’s officer working security at the bar AND made an attempt to disarm a security officer.
Pilato, a deputy sheriff since 2010, will continue to be paid while on suspension.
Pilato was contacted by the press, and said:
“I just made a mistake, got drunk and had an interaction with police. It went from bad to worse. I was wrong and I take responsibility for my actions,” Pilato said.
So, he's admitted to being a drunk off duty, avoided mentioning the intent to DUI specifically, and will be heading to court.
I gotta give him credit for admitting to it. That's a guy who can man up. I don't find this to outweigh the DUI that he was about to commit, or struggling with a security guard to get a gun from him.... but still. 1st time I've heard a cop man up (that I can remember) when caught fucking up
