Baltimore PD Gun Task Force corruption trial

Post by JU-87 »

:shock:
Notable testimony from the Baltimore Police Gun Trace Task Force corruption trial, updated with Day 7
» Ward said the officers kept BB guns in their vehicles “in case we accidentally hit somebody or got into a shootout, so we could plant them.” He did not say whether the officers ever planted a BB gun on anyone.

» In one incident, police took a man’s house keys, ran his name through databases to find his address, went into the home without a warrant and found drugs and a safe. The officers cracked open the safe, which had about $200,000 inside. They took $100,000 out, closed the safe back up, then filmed themselves pretending to open it for the first time. “Nobody touch anything,” Jenkins can be heard saying on the video, which was played for jurors.

Well that was an interesting read.. too bad no-one can tell us what the grappling hook was supposed to be used for.

Sounds like the whole lot needs to either stand in a line in front of a fire squad, or be given the option of life in prison with no protection. We are expected to treat police officers as heroes, then they treat people, even scumbags and drug dealers, like this; they will not be rehabilitated. They would only corrupt another department if they are transferred. :evil:

Reprehensible. But the source of the corruption no doubt starts much higher than the BPD. That place is a cesspool.
