"Due to the City’s failure to comply with several provisions of the Code and the information received during witnesses’ testimony, the Board concludes the Appellant was not afforded his right to due process. Therefore, the Board GRANTS the Appeal of Garrett Rolfe and revokes his dismissal as an employee of the APD

He should have been decorated. Instead they fire him and charge him with murder.

Who is going to police the area if this is the expected treatment?

He's not out of the woods yet:

quote:

Rolfe, who still faces murder charges in the killing of Brooks that are currently stuck in a kind of legal limbo, sought last month to have his firing reversed in a hearing before the board.

That same board reinstated Atlanta investigators Ivory Streeter and Mark Gardner, who were fired over the tasing of college students Taniyah Pilgrim and Messiah Young during protests last summer, in February.

The board hears the appeals of firings and other employment actions taken against public city employees. It's not clear if Rolfe's reinstatement means he will be allowed back on regular patrol duty, or resume employment in some other capacity.

Firing you without due process is pretty much the definition of a hostile work environment.

All Rayshard Brooks had to do was not resist, not steal a taser and not turn and fire that taser at a Police officer. Good riddance to that criminal.

Here is the problem with that. You know who pays? THE TAXPAYERS.

That's the issue. I guarantee the conversation went like this:

Mayor: Fire him. I don't give a shite about the rules.

Police Chief: But we will lose and get sued.

Mayor: Who cares. We don't have to pay.
