So the guy that threatened to kill his wife (and already had broken her arm--but it was just tickling) is claiming the real reason he was fired was because he did not fire a trooper that threatened to kill Palins father (after tasering Palins nephew).

I hadn't seen that before. Do you have some more detail?

Only article covering this angle. Naturally, NONE of the other media whores repeating the story over and over make mention of this.
