Well, I feel sorry not only for this man, but also for FL taxpayers who had to fund his trial. Prosecutors have way too much discretionary power, unfortuantely it is not coupled with a whole lot of common sense.
Prosecutors in FL are just plain stupid.
They all are jockying for judicial appointments. If anything because this case involved a cop, they were pandering to the police vote.
Miami-dade cops have a HORRIBLE reputation for lying. The lower levels are just grunts, and the upper levels of the prosecutor corps are those who can't get a job in the real world or just plain are in need of a government steady check.
It is very sad to say that most prosecutions like this have a degree of politics than justice at their core.
I do hope this man sues the police department. This would be an long overdue place to apply looser pays.
