“Peake was required to sign a termination letter contending he was let go for a “lack of solid job knowledge and basic police skills” and other “officer/public safety concerns” not spelled out in that letter in November 2010.” Required to sign? Or what? Were they going to taze him until he complied, like the pregnant woman that didn’t want to sign her ticket?

Possibly something like: "you can resign with the reason being something innocuous, or we can do a full investigation which may lead to charges against you, your choice".

Ah, so, in other words, it could have been extortion, under color of authority.

He would have resigned except he couldn’t spell it.
