3 of his fellow officers reportedly covered up for Officer Fallis. A perfect example of why police departments can't be trusted to investigate their own officers.

Culture of Corruption ping.

Officer Tom Fallis said his wife shot herself (in the back of the head) and her death was quickly ruled to be a suicide.

Ashley’s parents say local cops covered up for Tom Fallis, who was a jail officer in the county at the time.

An investigation by KDVR-TV found that cops left out details of her killing

The couple’s daughter, 6, said she ‘saw daddy shoot mommy.’

It seems to be getting coverage now according to a news web search. Copyright issues?

NOT read the story.

However, I don’t believe a “jail” officer is considered a “cop”. If there is a thin blue line, it’s very thin...

I once knew the long time police chief of a town in N.C.

He once told me that a lot of suicides are in fact murders that go unsolved. Every now and then one does get solved.

Yup, those Hero types are all upright and upstanding. Most of them are great, honest, family guys that do not and will not cover for their occasional filthy co-worker. They just want to get home to their families after their honorable shift of upholding justice. Yup.

“Mr Joseph (a reporter) uncovered shocking evidence that was either ignored or left out of a police report by Evans police officer Michael Yates. Yates was later cleared of criminal charges by an independent investigation, but still faces an internal review, according to the Denver Fox affiliate.”

Yep when forced they finally arrested the murderer, but the accessory after the fact to murder Yates apparently will skate. So again you can not trust them to investigate their own at any point.

"three years after local detectives allegedly covered up evidence of his crime and ruled her death a suicide - even though she was shot in the back of the head."

Cops.

Never trust them.

And people wonder why Ferguson is a powder keg? While enough is out that I would clear the cop, it is obvious only fools would trust they system to investigate cops.

Cop logic. Create a nightmare of near zero accountability. Then complain and blame the public for the lack of trust and respect toward law and LE. “You’re all just criminals. That’s why you hate us.” It can’t possibly be their corruption.

Oh look. The American Propaganda Ministry cannot report such a thing, so the British press has to.

We need to regulate this internet QUICKLY.
