Really shocking what police will do. What should be even more shocking is that of the above happened to a man, it would be ignored.
Unfortunately, yes. It would probably also be ignored if it happened to a black woman.
Criminals like these police need to be locked up for life so they can never threaten anyone else again along with any cop who helped cover their crime or obstruct justice. The tax payers shouldn't pay the $1.5 million. It should come out of the pensions and salaries of the police in the district where it happened. That would incentivize the police to not tolerate criminals in their ranks.

I was surprised that I haven't heard of this case which is over a year old, I'm not sure why more news sources didn't pick it up, but here it is because you probably have never seen it:

Have a great three day weekend, and remember that police officers are not a public service, they are a government funded domestic terrorism squad.
