A Virginia cop has been fired for anonymously donating $25 to Kenosha shooter Kyle Rittenhouse's legal fund with a note saying 'you've done nothing wrong'.

Norfolk Police Lt. William K. Kelly lost his job after a hack revealed the names of those who gave money to help with the 18-year-old's costs.

Kelly, who was second in command in the Norfolk Police Department's internal affairs division, is said to have written: 'God bless. Thank you for your courage. Keep your head up. You've done nothing wrong.

'Every rank and file police officer supports you. Don't be discouraged by actions of the political class of law enforcement leadership.'

City Manager Chip Filer said: 'I have reviewed the results of the internal investigation involving Lt. William Kelly. Chief Larry Boone and I have concluded Lt. Kelly’s actions are in violation of City and departmental policies.

'His egregious comments erode the trust between the Norfolk Police Department and those they are sworn to serve.'

To paraphrase Don Draper,

"The next thing will be better, because it always is"

They did this guy a favor.

Would the chief care to list the actual policies the officer violated?

Ghetto arse fricking shithole. Lt. Kelly needs to get the frick out of there, and I'd advise any of his like-minded colleagues do the same. You are no longer welcome in Law Enforcement in areas like this, you have no backing from your superiors when you put on the uniform anymore.

Norfolk Mayor Kenneth Cooper Alexander added: 'The alleged statement and action by a member of Norfolk’s Police Department is alarming and by all means not consistent with the values of our city or the standards set for our employees.'



"alleged"... so he was fired based on an allegation and no proof of wrongdoing? I hope he sues your arse into oblivion!

Naturally it was OK for every DNC candidate last year to encourage the support of goFundme campaigns around the country for ANTIFA and BLM arrested 'mostly peaceful protesters'.

You'll recall the current sitting VP had supported that stance.

Methinks they’re probably as nebulous as tech company “Terms of Service”.

It's kinda like expecting the SEC officials to call a fair game when you're playing Alabama.
