Yea, your right, bringing them to a trial was a joke to begin with. Waste of tax payers money to even prosecute. Now the city will be required to pay them around three years of back pay. They were fired without cause to begin with. Glad the truth came out and they were found innocent by the jury, which by the way, is citizens from the community.

What truth came out?

quote:

After the not guilty verdict was reached, District Attorney Hillar Moore said he spoke with the jury, who told him they do believe something happened in the park between Bolden and the victim, but they didn't have enough physical evidence to support that claim.

I have no gripe with BRPD, but they're some of the most unprofessional cops I've encountered.
