If both the officers' attorney and the union rep think they will be fired this afternoon, it seems pretty likely. Their actions that night have already cost the city over $100,000 in legal fees to expunge the arrest records of the people present that night, and the city faces millions of dollars in additional liability from the lawsuits already filed.

The public doesn't support them, and if the reports are true, the rank and file police officers don't support them. It's no secret that the Police Chief doesn't support them, and the District Attorney has already indicted them.

They're toast.

I hope you're right. If they get convicted it's a sure thing. Also there are a dozen or so other officers on paid vacation waiting for an internal police investigation. Seems that the police take forever to investigate themselves.

On another matter I think you are wasting your time arguing with you know who. Some people take ridiculous positions and then can't let them go. Sometimes medication helps.

I think that your friend is finally seeing a part of the problem with the arrests when he posts:
No investigation was ever conducted into the behavior of those arrested.
