Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney announced the abrupt resignation of his city's police commissioner Richard Ross Tuesday amid reports of sexual harassment and racial and gender discrimination within the police department.
Calling himself "disappointed," Kenney, in a statement, said Ross has been "a terrific asset to the Police Department and the City as a whole."
"New allegations of sexual harassment as well as gender and racial discrimination among the rank and file have recently been brought to my attention," Kenney added.

I always thought Ross was a pretty good guy. He had the support of the FOP so timing of his resignations is suspicious. I think the Soros DA (Krasner) and commie mayor (Kenney) forced him out.

Forced out an African-American????? Just like Mayor Pete did to the police chief in South Bend.

What do white progressives have against black police chiefs? Sounds racist to me.

Philadelphia is a failure.
And its police department has failed also. Remember a few months ago when they put 72 cops on desk duty for Facebook posts?
Philly deserves what they get.

The fetid swamp of Philadelphia politics and Soros runs the city. It used to be fetid Philadelphia swamp and the Mob. At least the Mob didn’t hate America.
