I suspect there’s a lot more to this story than has been presented at this point. It could turn out to be as bad as it sounds right now, but it’s going to take time to gather up all the pieces and assemble the puzzle.
Sadly, I have little faith in those who will be gathering the pieces. I have no concrete, absolute reason for my lack of faith, just a nagging feeling that’s been years in the making that police tend to protect their own. It’s human nature. Doctors do it, plumbers do it, we all do it.
Well, of course there is more to this. You have the mother, who is understandably distraught, saying some rather startling things ab... about which she has no direct knowledge, and which is being filtered through her daughter's death.
I'll guarantee you there's more to this story. (As, always always always, there is.)
But of course, some FReepers don't need facts to inform their opinions about cops.
