So what? What is your point? I gather that you think that there is some sort of cover up/conspiracy or some other malfeasance on the part of the department and/or the deputy.
Question: Is it not possible for law enforcement agencies to deceive or twist a version of events to fit, in order to avoid career damage/criminal penalties and or extremely costly litigation?
Well?
Of course it’s possible but there is nothing about this caper, at least as it’s been reported to date, that leads me to believe that it is the case in this instance.
